Thank you to everyone for joining the live premiere of this video!! It was so much fun chatting with you all. I will be doing more premieres in the future (at different times) so make sure you are subscribed with notifications !! I wish you all a great weekend!

I literally could *not* draw or paint without having one of your videos in the background. Without it, I'll just lose motivation easily - and not even my favorite song works to keep myself going! Your art really inspires me to keep growing as an artist!

I love these sketches! I am very much into the Blueberry Bill and Strawberry Saul characters they are just SO CUTE! I spent the Artober month working on color combinations and not forcing things. Like I wouldn't force myself to go in a direction I thought would lead to a dead end to just say I completed something. I tried to be intentional with my work and dig into the emotions evoked by the color and pattern involved. This was nice to sketch to! I love drawing while watching your videos 😊😊

that’s amazing!! I love that intentionality, thank you for drawing along!!

I ADORE the re-animator digital painting! I also loved the traditional painting next to your FNAF self insert, it's so colorful and 'experimental' looking and I love experimental art. Overall, I love the way you digitally render your drawings and paintings. It almost looks like you finish all of them with colored pencils, which I just love.

your use of colors is amazing. my favorite was definitely the sketchbook spread with your characters carving pumpkins, too cute fjdasfjkldsa

Your videos are honestly my favourite ever to watch 😭🥹✨ I love listening to your ideas and watching your process whilst doing other things or just sitting down relaxing. I recently got an iPad Pro and I’m waiting for the Pencil to arrive. This has made me soooo excited to draw omdsss I can’t wait 😭 But just wanted to say I adore your work and videos, you really are a huge inspiration!! :))

I really love your style! Very painterly yet cartoony at the same time???? And the colors are immaculate. Love!

I've already been drawing for nine years! And your art has definently inspired be to begin digital art! I'm getting a display tablet and art software during the holidays:)

Beautiful work as always! 😍

Your videos are always inspiring and they’ve definitely helped me when I’ve felt burned out from creating and don’t know what to do. Recently when I use Procreate I turn on the page assist feature which makes it feel like I am doing a digital sketchbook. I’ve also invested in some digital sketchbook mockups which have been useful.

I love how your drawing these master pieces and I'm over here painting a Chicken in an ugly sweater on.😂 love you art and my favorite one is definitely the one of you and your boyfriend cooking I like the unfinished part of it, it kinda gives it more flavor.....no pun intended.

hi I know you probably get this question a whole bunch but like,,,, what sketchbook do you use??? it hold water and paint SO well omg.

In the description!! The paper does warp, it is technically drawing paper so it really isn’t meant for water and paint so keep that in mind!

I might've missed this in the descrip but what HUION tablet do you use? Looking to upgrade soon!

I've been trying to pick a printer to buy so i can make some stickers, do you recommend the IP8720? does it run out of ink really fast with the amount of stickers you make?

@sketchesofshay

6 ай бұрын

It has worked really well for me! I print a LOT of stickers so I expect to have to change out the ink every other printing session, but it’s usually just one color that I have to refill, not all of them!

You can always look up the page yield of a printer and determine how much ink you use through that 💖

Digital is so hard, honestly. I used to think it was easier because of all the tools and stuff until I finally got a Wacom tablet and the learning curve is abhorrent. I am still struggling with it a month and a half later.

it's difficult but you got this!! don't stop practicing!

How do you work with reference? Your drawings are so human (not in the anatomical sense), I don't know how to explain, it's like they're ergonomic and comfy, when I look at them my eyes just flow around the paper following some kind of movie, your drawings moves like real life

First, thank you that means a lot to me! And second it comes from a couple years studying the human figure and building my understanding of structure and form ! I did a lot of live portrait painting in college, really practiced likeness. Also, character art and drawing people is one of my most favorite things to do so I just end up doing it a lot! Consistent, intentional, passionate practice. I use reference more as a structural guide rather than doing exact copies. I think this would make a great future video idea!!
