I love your videos because any time you say "art" I replace it in my head with "program" and your videos still work! Great motivation for working on programming skills!
This is such a good practical video. A lot of young artists don't realize how planning/organizing actually gives them more freedom then it takes away. I'm still learning to balance things myself but heres to 2017 being the year of getting organized! Someone that talks about getting organized is Bobby Chiu on youtube. His little plant people videos are so great. In one video he talked about how you gotta start slow to make things into habits. So doing things for just 30 minutes maybe 2 times a week helps you build momentum. You get used to 30 minutes 2 times a week so you then add 30 minutes 5 times a week. And then it becomes an hour and then two hours. So to other people who are afraid they cant complete a year long plan, it's okay! Start small, build habits, then expand on them.
I remember watching this video years ago and trying it out, now in 2024 every time i get inspired to really grind and plan out how to accomplish my goals (art or non) I think about this method! Such an interesting way to divide everything up and have a visual graph rather than just writing- still loving it years later!
I LOVE your videos!!! every one of your videos have satisfied me! (not that im rating any one) great job keep it up! EDIT: i just noticed that you almost replied to all your comments!! Makes me really happy you care about your fans :)
I hear you, girl! I love the pie chart visual, haven't seen that before. I also really love your glasses. I wear glasses too so I'm starting to pick what frames I might want. Anyway, love your channel! Congrats on being featured too! I look forward to seeing your next instagram challenge for the month too!
Ah thanks so much for this video! I've watched so many vids about goals (not necessarily art) and had meetings in school about them, but they never really worked. This is such a great idea since it gives me a way to actually engage myself with my goals and tracks my progress. Now I just need to put in my part! Thanks again! 😊
Biana Bova I don't know why, but to me you resemble Zendaya a lot lol. Love your channel and thanks for the advice! I truly needed it during this time in my life.
This was really helpful! :D I needed something like this to get me motivate in art! I'm not someone to be always organized but this year I'll do my best to accomplish some goals.
My biggest concern right now is whether to go back to college or not. I have dropped out more than two semesters. I also struggle with which art style I should work towards, realism like oil painting and acrylics or go for animation and comics. I love them all. Your videos are always informative and amazing btw!
Hi Ms. Biana, Thank you so much for creating a content like this and helping other artists. I just want to ask a question/ favor/ help? I am a self- proclaimed artist, I graduated in college already but I don't study arts, like I don't have formal art study? I want to become an artist, I want to become an illustrator or something. But I don't really know what to include in my portfolio? I draw portraits using watercolor but I don't know if that will give me an illustration job. I thought I have to draw in more cartoon-ish style, I've tried drawing in cartoon style but I don't know how to really find or get or have an original style, like I don't feel original with the cartoonish drawing that I made, and I feel overwhelmed with a lot of great artist in the internet and I am thinking I want her style and her's and her's? what should I do? I really want to become an artist/ illustrator professionally. I'm really sorry for bothering you Ma'am, but when I saw this video the first thing that comes in my mind is that she can help me figuring things out (art related) and she's nice to actually film a video like this one so informative. Anyways, Thank you so much Ms. Biana! :)
I really hate my art style, and I want to achieve a more realistic style, but I don't necessarily want to copy another person's artwork ): how can I improve without stealing?
Dear lord, I could spend a whole youtube vid talking about this one topic alone, but here's a resource for you: th-cam.com/video/gMJv3pFO6qE/w-d-xo.html GO TO THE COMMENT SECTION OF THIS VID!! People have been posting /dozens/ of reference photos, tutorials, and videos which will help you improve without feeling like a copy cat. Or even better, draw from real life! I know this is a short reply to a complex question, but I hope this helps!
Biana Bova Omg *cri* I love you so much thank you ily! Ily! Ily! I want to go to MassArt so I would be really lucky to cross paths with you if I get accepted (: THANK YOU FOR THE LINK.
Copy someone elses artwork there is no shame in it as long as you don't claim its your own. That is how the masters used to teach. They'd get a class to copy a painting they had done, by copying you learn the techniques to apply to you own work later. Its a key part of any school/college course too. You need to do Artist Copies for each project because it works. I tell you Raphael has taught thousands from beyond the grave. One thing I've just done personally is do realistic interpretations of animated characters. Not talking adventure time here but if you are used to anime and mange or more traditional proportional animation that is a great way to work. Because its applying what you are used to to something you want to learn.
7:30 I think a good observation for this is that, during your free time, you should try to do more art while doing other things you enjoy. I.E. Music, textchannels, and podcasts. Drink some of your favorite beverage if possible, and just enjoy yourself.
cableclair van Swaaij oh god, i got that plushie so many years ago O-O. It was some small seller in australia? If you google "box fox" maybe you'll find it but beyond that i got nothing 😅
Actually, I've got a vid for that: th-cam.com/video/jKq-ITWHfPs/w-d-xo.html Technically it's about portfolio review days, but there's a section that's just about organizing your portfolio. Hope that helps! :D
I'm a senior in HS going to be a second year senior due to health next year, I was wondering since I do cosplay could I use my props as portfolio pieces, since I have foam weapons that are painted/weathered to look like real metal.
Warren Marquez 100% depends on what major you're applying for. Puppetry would definitely work and mayyybe fashion or sculpture, but if you're applying for 2d majors like illustration then no
Warren Marquez ....frick uM...then okay maybe that would be fine! I'd call the school's admissions department and ask since their answer is probs more valid than mine 😂
did you come up with this yourself? this looks like it'll be super helpful! it's more visual than crossing things off a list or checking off boxes i just made my own circle thaaanks :D
Okay admittedly I'm not that cool and this is NOT my original idea. I found this deeeeep in the trenches of the bullet journal community and I felt like it'd be the perfect technique for setting artistic goals. Love that it's visual too
I love your videos because any time you say "art" I replace it in my head with "program" and your videos still work! Great motivation for working on programming skills!

Hi Ms. Biana, Thank you so much for creating a content like this and helping other artists.

Zehrax Pierre usually when I'm drawing realistic art I look up models of all races and try to draw them
Study from life or pictures (sorry if this is late)
you are inspiring :)
Thank you! :*
I am taking a live model class. I have trouble with hands, feet, hair, and....yes...genitals...lol I need to set a goal of a year or two...probably.
Thank you. SO MUCH. x

You should do a video on how to put together a portfolio
Actually, I've got a vid for that: th-cam.com/video/jKq-ITWHfPs/w-d-xo.html Technically it's about portfolio review days, but there's a section that's just about organizing your portfolio. Hope that helps! :D
