The one about leaving behind perfectionism, yes! So much yes. I stopped drawing around 2011, only picking it up occasionally, because I was just so frustrated with everything I drew, because nothing looked like I had envisioned it. Picked it up again last year and SOMEHOW got over it. idk what changed in my brain, but I finally was able to enjoy drawing again. I still see the mistakes I make and the things that didn't go like I wanted, but it doesn't bother me as much anymore.
That last video actually got to me. I’ve always been so focused on getting things to look the way I have it as in my head, and then I get angry about the minor mistakes and end up almost giving up on art TvT. But I can’t believe I went 8 years without just thinking about what I was doing wrong with my thought process. I bet I would have done a bit better if I didn’t want everything I did to perfectly match what I had in my head.
Seeing Sam quickly transfer to a British accent had me rolling on the floor. I really think it would be a good idea for Sam to make a video about looking at random art and then drawing the same thing with alcohol markers.
That last piece of advice was so inspiring. I've been in a perfectionist mindset for so long and I feel like that's one of the reasons why Im not creative as I usually am/want to be. I'm brainstorming for a manga yet it feels my perfectionist mindset is making me work like I'm in the final draft. I gotta remember that I'm still creating ideas and that not every idea/concept is gonna be 100% perfect and that's fine.
I love Rawsueshii art! (The last video). She's right. I use to be so hooked on attempting to get the perfect picture to the point where I ended up hating my art and couldnt have an appreciation for it. Now, i accept that I wont always have the outcome that I want but I can always improve. I found that walking away from my art doesnt actually hinder my ability to draw, in fact my art actually improves. My next leap is to dig deeper into anatomy.
I think I also truly needed to hear that last advice, Ive realized that thats probably the reason why I havent created and improved that much this year: the perfectionist mindset. I havent finished alot of sketchbooks either, probably bc I unconciously wanted my sketchbook to look perfect like the ones you always see on social media, but a sketchbook is there to put youe sketches in, even if they arent perfect. Theres a reason why its called ´sketchbook' and not 'artbook'
Love how you showcase a wider range of tutorials. From more experienced artists as well as those that aren't that experienced. But either way all of them have something worthwhile to share most of the time.
6:25 I’m the artist who gave up just because I couldn’t wait for improvement and everything, I wanted to a webtoon that was my dream for years but now I’m just a commerce student😂 I miss being artist if I say, I miss times when I sit with my canvas or iPad to draw whatever.. but yeah after getting a job I’ll get back to art
when i was a begginer artist i always wanted to be perfect and have beautiful art, it destroyed my mental health so badly that today sometimes i still feel like i am not good enough. i hated my art to the point of crying and thinking that peoples around me were lying when they said my art was pretty. Please, don't let your perfectionnism take over, i was an extreme case and i know others are probably in this same situation. To all those artists; stop pushing yourself too hard. Don't overwork and don't hate yourself because you art is not perfect. It will come with time and practice and one day your art will be so beautiful you will be so proud of yourself.
There are three types of artists, 1.Rush artists: rarely done over 3h drawings, never satisfied with his work, allways improving, competitive. 2.Lento artists: slowly improves, rarely done under 1h drawings. 3.anime babyes: start with anime, their progress is slow, learn verry late the anatomy and realism.

Perfectionist is so real, used to do one drawing here and there and spend hours just to hate on it later regardless of what people say (they were obvious mistakes im just not that great yet) and im still a perfectionist but im doing better when i can break out of that and just enjoy drawing what i want, drew an air bending oc doing air skating (variation of aangs air scooter) and didnt give her arms partially cuz i wasnt sure how i wanted to do them, partially because i didnt wanna draw hands, and partilly cuz i thought itd be cool if she had to skate like this cuz her air bending requires her legs to move cuz she doesnt have arms
Yes" is an affirmative expression employed to indicate agreement, affirmation, or consent, often used in response to a question or statement, conveying a positive affirmation or acknowledgment of the veracity or desirability of the preceding content. We need Sam to use alcohol markers in a video!
Hey fellow artists! Uhm, can you do underpainting using alcohol markers? It's the only material I use, and I want my art to have more depth, but is it possible?
1:46 these stress me out and complicate things for me in my opinion from my experience what I like to do is start with a circle then just don’t do anything until your mind looks at the blank page and creates lines and shapes which can make something beautiful
Same ,I did it a few days ago.One problem is just these weirdos with red and blue RGB lights keep following me(i think they're gamers)..saying stuff like "Jen O' side"and they call themselves the "poe-lease",and they said ill go to "court"but i dont want to start courting
Happy new year. I love you and i love your works so much. You're a great teacher to me. I learned a lot from you and i appreciate it. Have a great year dear sam 😭💕
no but the perfectionism thing is seriously TOUGH. i’m currently in therapy (granted it’s for ptsd but it’s also a safe space for me to just talk) and my therapist - who also works with people with serious addictions - continuously says to me, “perfectionism is the most dangerous addiction” and,,, yeah i feel that 😭 i’ve been doing art for over 15 years and i do other creative projects too as well as a degree in writing and this whole ‘if it’s not perfect then it’s worthless’ mindset i have for sure is the one thing that always stops me from being able to move forward and gives me the most torturous creative blocks. it’s hard for me, but my resolutions this year are to not get hung up on achieving perfection and be happy with just ‘good enough’, because (as my therapist says), what would happen if something wasn’t perfect? what would happen if i had to just leave it at good enough? would the world burst into flames and crash down around me? she’s right and i’m praying that 2024 is the year i can work on beating this :,)
oh whoa i didnt realise pros would suggest drawing skeletons to help with anatomy i had a big undertale phase in middle school where i drew exclusively skeletons every day for about a year and i firmly believe i would not be where i am artistically if i hadnt done that
Something I realised that i find pretty funny is the was Sam has 'the skull of his enemy' but that skull looks the size of a newborn baby's skull- Sam, do u have smth to tell us? 👀🧐🤨
Sam's automatic swtich to a British accent after seeing Harry Potter is so funny to me.
It’s funny to everyone

I just love that so much
Potter , this is unorthodox , 3 billion points from griffindor
Now we need a video of Sam trying to use alcohol markers 🤔
Yesss
Yassss
Do it. Do it 🎉😂
AGREED
i was thinkinig of this lol >
Thanks so much for reviewing my video Sam!! Glad it can inspire you and many others! 😊
The girl you drew was adorable!
And as a perfectionist myself, your words really hit home 😅
Merry Christmas!
Thank you for making the video! I really needed to hear that as I’ve been feeling stuck with my art recently
I love your art style!
I’m glad that you spoke about Hod in art and God carried your advice to reach a massive audience! I see God truly with you in this! Amen!
I love your faith and art. and your nails are so pretty

sam scaring me for not leaving reminded me of my earthly duties. thank you sam

I saw it coming even so it was terrifying
Sam can you please show us how you paint with watercolors, it looked so good

I’m happy that Sam is watching TH-cam shorts instead of Tiktok☺️
The fact that the skull of his enemy is so small implies that his enemy is a child 💀

"Officer, I drop-kicked that child in self defense."

I’m pleasantly surprised by TH-cam shorts.
That ladies advice at 9:09 is so good! Gonna keep that in my pocket.

Thanks Sam for nagging at us to get moving and pick up a pencil! My New Year resolution is to draw every single day...
and watch Sam :)
Whenever Sam mentions the skull of his enemy:
Me: So that’s where Kooleen’s skull went!
I love your art sam, you have inspired me to do great things with my work and you have been a big influence, best wishes and love your work. :)
I liked so much the way he explains about his character creation, he is a purpose there in art tutorial field
10:00 let go of perfection
but when i try to draw for fun people will try to criticize me like i try to make a perfect art. lol
We need a video where Sam rates Jadokar's art tips, that man is insanely underrated

The good thing about not having a mind's eye as an artist is that you literally can't imagine what you want, you just start and hope for the best!
Sam physically not being able to say 🤮“juicy”🤮 because of the trauma that koolaid has inflicted on him is hilarious

these were actually pretty tame today, good job guys ❤
Every time you talk about the skull being that of your enemy i imagine it just being an oompa loompa

found it really interesting/helpful! :D
That’s me!
these videos bring me a sense of call I didn’t know existed
