Thank you for the love, my friend. I'm SO excited to see your sketchbook doodles. PLEASE let me send you my favorite Zebra Brush Pen! I think you'll love it.
I adore Scott. He’s a national treasure. He’s the dad of the art community and he’s just the best. Wholesome, relatable, skilled and experienced. Hes always grateful and realistic. Everyone deserves an art dad like Scott.
A person in my neighborhood has art in their window that is very clearly inspired by Sam's art style and usual subjects, and it always makes me smile :)
I love Chommang!! His tutorials seem to be really easy to understand and I will definitely follow his vids more when I have time to draw since I'm busy with graphic design stuff for school so I don't have free time for other learning D:
I always see artists acting like they know everything and they are good at everything. The reason why i watch samdoesart is 1. he has the same name as my brother so it was kinda for jokes at the start but 2 hes not afraid to learn new stuff like drawing with a pencil and paper! as a mostly traditional artist i love to see it.
3:25 ahhh i love this sm!!! i remember once looking at an empty sketchbook (I think it was my friends scketchbook- anyways) they told me that they were kinda scared {maybe anxious?) abt drawing in it because the cover was pretty and they didn't want to "draw ugly sketches in a pretty book"..... i asked them if they thought that artist can plan if a sketch is pretty or not, they said that no one can fully plan how a drawing will look....... that sketchbook was filled with many drawings an even paintings, in what seemed less than a month! lol. they learned not to buy the pretty sketchbooks from then on, "they are very un-motivating" -my beloved friend :3
Marc Brunet is A LOT more helpful than Scott as far as teaching goes. Scott is better at making me feel relaxed and reminds me not to put too much pressure on myself. As much as I like Sam I'd say Sycra is better at getting points across at least for myself. The way Sycra shows how to simplify things down more really helps with people that are overly analytical. Proko is good. I agree he's one of the best.
You got a couple of my favorites in there again, and the Sam X Scott friendship era continues! I was surprised to see Lucas, Proko twice, LavenderTowne, and Scott twice. I said it in Scott's video, too, but I think so many people get hung up on the possibility of burnout, that they don't think about drawing every day with a purpose. Also, I had watched many of the videos in that scroll, like Mohammad Agbadi and Trent Kaniuga.
I was one of the earliest subscriber to Chommang's channel. I've seen him improving and so happy like a proud father while I'm a lazy bum still busy twirling at societal's whim rather than improving my own drawing
I loved all these tips especially the one about perfectionism and treating your sketchbook like it’s a one time precious thing. I’ve had a new watercolor sketchbook sitting on my desk for MONTHS because I don’t want to “ruin it with bad art.” But I’m gonna stat making crappy art. I’m gonna keep making crappy art until all the crappiness is out of my system :) Thank you Sam for your wholesome and funny videos! P.s. it was so good to see you at OCAD :)) ALSO SUPER EXCITED TO SEE MORE TRADITIONAL ART FROM YOU!!!!
11:15 I was in London zoo, visiting and a saw many beautiful animals. Then I saw this lady and she was drawing every animal and it was gorgeous! I went up to her and asked her what I should do to improve my art... " draw everything everyday whatever it is draw it" props to that woman who has helped me with my art journey!! >3
0:53 I’m someone who traces over references (changing it to fit my style more) then uses my traced version and the original version as references, it helps me understand it in a way I understand and a way I sing understand, I have issues with stuff that isn’t familiar and only using that hence why I make the reference more accurate to my style along with using the actual reference so I don’t get overwhelmed
Hello Sam! I recommend Proko, He is TH-camr and teach a lot of fundamentals drawings, I knew him since college and I still hold his lessons in my heart. For self taught and finding such amazing talent people teaching their knowledge like you and Proko are very generous, In my childhood I never thought I can improve so much with self-taught but TH-camrs are the best teachers for me. Also your new roommate chicken is cute!
I remember seeing a video that claimed that drawing everyday is bad advice. I didnt watch the video, but thats what the title and thumbnail claimed. I only got decent at drawing hands because, despite how notoriously painful it is, I kept drawing them everytime I drew my characters because I wanted to get better, and I did. You dont have to draw every single day if you cant or dont feel like it, but I'd say draw as much as you can if you really want to improve.
As a fellow artist, let me give you some advice: DO NOT DRAW EVERYDAY! By that I mean that you should not draw everyday for 1 hour/hours, everything. That will lead so quickly to burnout, it damages you more than helps you improve. Instead stay with at most, everyday 15-30 minutes (AT MOST) or better: Once a week, for an hour. Maybe once a month for some hours or once a year for a day/ week. That leaves you with: 1. You have downtime to let the past accumulated knowledge, sit in your brain and actually become a connection. You allow your brain, like any other muscle after hitting the gym, to heal. To rest. 2. You come back refreshed when the next art session comes around. You have more motivation, more energy and stamina to obtain more new knowledge. 3. You allow your brain to gain new different, helpful skills for art in the meantime. Because in the downtime you will start to just observe your surroundings, without putting any value to it. Over time you notice one or two new traits that you automatically and subconsciously add into your art, after a bit. Consistency in the end, of course looks different for everyone. But I found that a lot of beginner artists, especially, pressure themselves with drawing everyday. It's just not that helpful for them. So please - and I'm speaking from personal experience - don't draw everyday, especially everything.
Thank you, sam. I have always loved drawing/painting and I've often had trouble not comparing myself with others. I've always found it hard not to think i was super horrible because others are better. But you have really helped me become more confident in my art. And you have helped me remember why i draw in the first place. So, thank you so much.
Im a pianist since 35 years and it's only by having fun on the keyboard that brought me who I am today. Without fun, you will give up very early. Lessons/teacher is great to avoid beginners mistakes and avoid gaps in skills, but fun is the real teacher.
My favorite videos are the ones where you fix peoples art.With just a few changes, it makes such a big difference. They are amazing. Thanks for another video.
Aw, thanks so much! I'm really excited to see your sketchbook doodles too. You're so sweet to offer - I'd love to try out your favorite Zebra Brush Pen! I bet it'll be perfect for my sketching. 😊
The tutorial with the squares, flowers and patterns for clearing your mental state is meditation for people who can't do meditation because there are too many thoughts swirling around in their brains. I'm one of those people, I can never meditate or do breathing exercises because my brain is on full blast all the time but with zentangles and doodling I can focus the active part of my brain on the doodle, what I'm doing, the lines I'm making, the patterns I'm using etc. while the rest of my brain gets to sit in quiet peace. It's not for everyone but it can be super helpful if you need a way to shut your brain off for a bit.
"...Just look in the mirror. If it hasn't already shattered." LOL! This vid was actually motivating to watch and I enjoy the art tips that you and others share with us Sam!
not sure if youll notice this but ive been watching your vids these past few weeks for like everyday and ive been drawing everyday too and my growth has just been exponential. thank you so much for your art tips. i stored all of them in my mental library specially the ones on design OC 's
With the pose reference sites and such, usually I'll make a really rough sketch over the reference, make it small and put it up in the corner, then reference my draw over to make the shape simplification process much easier
I wish finding art style was that easy for me. Mine was found by finding out which styles I didn't have to fight my Own hand to form. I found it by experimenting and finding that it is the style I don't have to argue with myself to make
drawing different things truly is amazing, my sketch book goes from cartoon made up characters, the old emo cartoon voodoo doll lookin characters, to a "realistic" dragon head, to Spider woman drawn in the comic book style...to just weird neon page I did with just 3 highlighters of Ke$ha lyrics XD but it does help you find your style and gets you comfortable with not having to make a 'perfect picture' they are ALL perfect to me and make me smile to look at them
5:47 i see what you mean there, but i still prefer using the box to find the perspective cause it's really hard to miss when you get used to it, the gesture can be added before or after the boxes and it will still work
I personally prefer thin mechanical pencils over expensive drawing pencils (maybe i just haven't used the tight fancy pencil lol) but mechanical pencils usually stay sharp and consistent without getting duller the more you use them which is nice.
Not gonna lie, the biggest art tip I’ve ever gotten (and the only one I actually remember) is one I found on TH-cam. It was to draw the hands before you draw the arms, makes it all look less stiff
Thank you for the love, my friend. I'm SO excited to see your sketchbook doodles. PLEASE let me send you my favorite Zebra Brush Pen! I think you'll love it.
I love every video of yours Scott!! ❤❣
Keep making goot art man!!💖💕

i remember once looking at an empty sketchbook (I think it was my friends scketchbook- anyways) they told me that they were kinda scared {maybe anxious?) abt drawing in it because the cover was pretty and they didn't want to "draw ugly sketches in a pretty book".....
i asked them if they thought that artist can plan if a sketch is pretty or not, they said that no one can fully plan how a drawing will look.......
that sketchbook was filled with many drawings an even paintings, in what seemed less than a month! lol.
they learned not to buy the pretty sketchbooks from then on, "they are very un-motivating" -my beloved friend :3
chommang is cracked and has been grinding pretty hard, 10/10 recommend to everyone
sam, scott, and proko are the best art youtubers you cant change my mind

OMG OMG THE CHICKEN IS ADORABLE ❤️❤️
I actually watch Chommang a lot since recently. Really informative and his art is very cute.
i physically JUMPED in excitement when i saw chommang, he is my art sensei and ive been waiting forever for him to appear in one of these
Not the chicken and the birbs immediately starting a secret meeting.
Careful Sam! They might be up to something...

I love scotts advice so much! I draw anything I like when I see it and I'm really starting to get better!
Lavender Town is one of my favorite art TH-camrs.
Usually i take like a whole 6 months break from drawing and when i draw again, my lineart, anatomy and everything just improves magically 😭😭
Chommang's videos are great! They were super helpful for me getting back into art this year!

I would def recommend using posco markers in your sketchbook!! I use them to add a pop of color in the background 🫶
8:31 that was his own tutorial.... you know what, no, it happens to us sometimes
2:47 Thank you!!! I love chommang so much!!!! You are my 2 favorite artist! + Proko, I love you 🤗🎉🎉🎉

The way I audibly gasped when I saw Sam pull out a sketchbook 😭 I’m so used to him doing digital!
I love Scott and chommang! so happy they made it into this video
Clearing my mental space means literally cleaning my desk. It really helps. ❤
i actually love these videos
Bro just rated all of the tutorials that i have watched in my whole life
I just love Sam and him roasting us every chance he gets ❤❤❤
I love the fact that you state us as "Art Babies" instead of the cursed "Beginners".
I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR VIDEOS SAM! literally free dopamine and knowledge
My favorite videos are the ones where you fix peoples art.With just a few changes, it makes such a big difference. They are amazing. Thanks for another video.
Scott has the best advise tbh
your videos always somehow end up inspiring me to continue my art no matter what topic your videos are on, thanks for that
and by favorite artist the shorts creator means, you favorite artist with your favorite artworks
is it just me or does Sam get even more adorable every video? Like seriously, i get cute aggression whenever i see that face

2:09 AHH OMG I LITERALLY STAN CHOMMANG HIS DRAWINGS ARE VERY GOOD!!
5:47 i see what you mean there, but i still prefer using the box to find the perspective cause it's really hard to miss when you get used to it, the gesture can be added before or after the boxes and it will still work
Every time I watch Scott's video, I feel like all the apathy and the artblock is being taken away from me...😢❤
Scott is great! We need at Scott x Sam collab!
:0 a commentary video or something with the fineliner sketches would be amazing
I personally prefer thin mechanical pencils over expensive drawing pencils (maybe i just haven't used the tight fancy pencil lol) but mechanical pencils usually stay sharp and consistent without getting duller the more you use them which is nice.
