Much respect to all the art students out there learning all these challenging processes. Intaglio and etching are skilled crafts all on their own that take years to master! This continues to be one of our favorite channels. We can't wait to see what's next!
when you said not to give up hope and that you believed in us (the viewers) I literally teared up. Don’t have a ton of support when it comes to my art/creative endeavors so thank you for the kind words ❤ You’re a fantastic artist and I watch your videos to calm down whenever I feel out of control or upset, they always center me again. Thank you for sharing your art and experiences with us Sunny :)
Admiring and respecting to all the art students! I wish to have a chance to go to art school. Even now I have passed 30 already, but I still have this dream every single day in my life 🙏
im glad theres hope for artists still. some worry about ai art taking over, but i dont care for it. i love AI art too, but theres a tool and theres a craft. im sure people will still want genuine hand made art even in a world of AI made art. either some big artists will make a propaganda campaign and say that ai art is the knock off alternative and people will begin praising real art, or we stay in our own lanes, ai being commercially used, or exclusively internal to garner a design process, and artists honing their skills maybe even using the ai art as inspiration for their own work, for it to be sold and shown to the world
@@sunnykabocha well who's going to profit from it?! Ai won't keep to a specific style unless you invest a lot of time and money into it, and the only people willing to do that are artists using it as a tool, so it's more likely knockoffs or startups will just use it as an easy graphic design maker and lower the barrier of entry to professional looking design. No motif, no commonality, just random ads or cheap products that already exist on Amazon and wish. No one will remember the random guy who sold 3 mugs, but the guy who put hours of work into a piece only to put it on a mug as merch will have plenty of fans! They will remember.
I enjoyed this so much! I'm a printmaking major so it's fun to see other printers. I've done a little intaglio and i'll be doing a full class for it next semester and while I love the detail you can get I totally understand what you mean, it's so much work and a really long process.
I grew up in Plymouth and seeing the local art university through your vids are making me see it in a completely different light! Love your work! Enjoy every minute! 😊
Im a 22 year old American student, from Massachusetts, going to Falmouth University for Illustration just west of you, and I find your content obviously INCREDIBLY RELATABLE and therefore comforting. Thank you for sharing!!
I've been binge watching all your videos today and subscribed ASAP. Love the vibe you have, it's so inspiring and creative and soothing. Your art style is my literal goal. I'm an artist too and I would love to learn from you. Could you please make a little tutorial someday of how you come up with those amazing designs you draw? How you begin brainstorming for ideas to unlock creativity, how you choose your color palette or even decide how to make the lineart and sketch. It would be really helpful ❤️ Love from Argentina 🥰😘
I'm thinking about University soon and these videos are looking to be one of my favourite and best insights into UK art schools. Love it, keep them coming!!! ❤️
I loved this vlog and I totally understand your struggles regarding etching. I have a tip for you, that I learned from my teachers. When you are wiping the etching plate, try to press the cloth down and then do a circle movement. This way, the cloth will absorb the ink faster and it will also clean the plate better. Personally, I really enjoyed dry point etching, it was fun
@@sunnykabocha Oh, that's frustrating! @AriaArts gives a good tip here though, as this isn't necessarily about greater pressure, but more consistent, even buffing. Creating a round floomfy little buffing pad - like a slightly flattened oil painters _mahl_ - and buffing in repeated light circular motions lifts the excess without destroying your painstakingly inked lines. 😫 It's that, or make your lines deeper, I'm afraid - all that hard work can be soul-destroying sometimes, can't it? Props to you, btw - doing a foundation course is quite the undertaking! When you're exposed to new techniques almost daily, it difficult not to feel like a new-born foal at times, still tottering about a little on legs that don't quite hold your weight yet. Thanks for letting us learn alongside you. Oh, and welcome to the UK!
I've just seen that you are at *Plymouth College of Art & Design!* (now Arts University Plymouth) My home town, and that is a great Art School. My pal Claire Voss-Bark was Head of Graphic Design at the school for several years but I think she's semi-retired to Cornwall now. 😊
I find that screenprinting can be challenging but so much fun to see through from start to finish! thank you for this glimpse into your working process!
your transition from prints in lyon to squarespace 😂😂 I love your outfits as always (idk how you thrift such cool things!!!) ❤ having a lotta fun watching your vid and arts process ☺️
Hi, I don't know if others have said, but the ink looks a little stiff when you're applying - is the workshop cold? Try working the ink more before applying and use more pressure to force it into the groves. Try not to coat the plate. Ball up the scrim and push/twist it down rather than wiping. When it's mostly removed use a rag or newsprint to polish the surface. Hope this helps.
Hi, last semester I did etching at art school in italy, what we would do is wetting the paper the day prior the printing then sealing it in a plastic bag (the ones used for clothing), we would remove most of the ink with the "spatula" so it's easier to use the tarlatan later. After removing some ink with the tarlatan we would use newspaper to remove the last bit of ink. I know this feels like a lot of steps but the work ended up being easier and faster (especially if you wet the paper the day proprior). That said I don't intend to judge your way of working, just give you a different perspective. Congratulations on all your accomplishments 💕
Hi Sunny nice video, when I print with Black & white acrylics sometimes were the white goes over the black it creates blue not white and not grey, I think it's to do with the quality of the pigment in the acrylic, oil base is more stable.
that is great about your image being sold in france! 😀etching is my love, its so much fun, a lot of work with the ink, but still really cool to see what the print will look like😀
Enjoyed your vid. Congrats on the store picking up on your silk screen prints. I see much in the future for you. Enjoy the journey! Thanks for sharing.
I love your personality,I love the fact that your personality may be great & ethical for children that are not born yet & children that are,cribs,infant, crying,control,uncontrol,controllably, uncontrollably,Great for hungry children,Thank you
@@sunnykabocha I'm doing alright, it was cancer so we knew it was going to happen eventually. Of course it does not make it easier but I have a wonderful support system and thank you for offering for yours as well
I really love seing your videos ! I did two years of art school and then dropped to do a sewing formation (which was the good choice finally i'm really happy),but yeah i still enjoyed a lot what i did these two years and etching was part of it. I'm like you, i really liked the results but gosh it's so long and exhausting to take all of the ink off 😭
A cool tip I learned was that you can use soy sauce to degrease copper plates. After sanding the plate to 1000 grit, put soya evenly over the plate’s surface with a shop towel and rinse with water. Then just dry the plate and its done. The printmaking nerd in me loved this video. :)
Hey I’m really loving your videos lately! I also just moved to Cornwall, I’m study illustration at Falmouth uni. Its quite lonely at the start and I’m feeling kind of homesick. But your videos give me a lot of conform, I hope you keep making them :))) ps i think your a great artist and have a lovely vibe. Best wishes for your masters
At my art school, once we put the ink on that plate, we were also supposed to heat up the surface where you are cleaning the ink. Warming it up makes the ink run smoother so its way easier to clean :) we had a special table with heating options :)
Just stumbled across your channel, your art is so pretty! If you don’t mind, what school is this? I live in England and am in my second year of college and I’m struggling to find universities I like for art and textiles
me divierte tus videos de paseos y tu cariño por los animalitos y como pruebas esos postres deliciosos, pero este video me emocionó mucho, felicidades hermosa!
@@sunnykabocha i wanna apply to an art university in the uk as an international so i would be thankful if you could share some of the process applying stuff
@@lemmon77 thanks for calling it the U.K. and not “England”. Nobody here says England unless you’re talking about sports or you’re waaay far right. Plymouth was my old university, nice place to be!
I swear I love this kind of thing, I always want to learn art so bad. Unfortunately, my parents wouldn't give me any support, they would only support me if I could play musical instruments. It's so sad and painful for me since I enjoy doing art and learning languages, I'm afraid to go to the uni since I'll be taking the major my parents picked. I'm so glad to see people who can enjoy the things they like without being pressured.

Hi it's been a long time since I watched your videos again. I don't know if you remember me but are you going to art school again? Or is it masterals ?
I just did an etching project for my first year print class….. and when I tell you the ink was SO HARD TO GET OFF…. By my fourth edition I was sweating 😅
I'm a printmaker, taught by an English non-toxic process, we used old phone book paper to remove excess inks, I've never seen a rag used ever, that's way messy girl!
thank you, Sunny, for inspiring us all as artists, I really enjoy watching your videos so sometimes I don't watch them for a few weeks and then when I have the inspiration to create something, I put all your videos I didn't watch! Also, I know there's still hope for us artists; because we are passionate about what we do, and we support each other. i hope that this comment will reach you! I hope you have a wonderful day!
