@@MbxAnticsYt true. also, since you're painting it, you know exactly where you did wrong and that catches all your attention, specially if you are painting from your imagination and it isn't coming how you want 😂 I personally don't see my work as cute as it may be when I'm working in it or when I finish it, but I leave it for a while and when I come back I surprise myself. I also do that when I'm feeling bad about a drawing, or a painting or even a sculpture, I just leave it and then when I go back to work in it; and i see it with the eyes of a spector, I feel refreshed and it's not that bad 😅😂

She's just pointing out the things she sees that aren't "perfect." Artists tend to pick things in their own art that could use improvement and I think we all do that time to time.
I started with Gouache and dove right into a difficult project. I took on a 24 page children’s book that paid nothing! I was dumb and agreed to split the book profits 50/50 with the author. Little did I know each piece would take over 70 hours and that gouache was such a difficult medium. Not only that, the story took place in an insanely detailed swamp. Sadly, the book was never published. It was the author’s job to ‘sell’ it to a publisher and he got demoralized after only a few rejection letters. I believe the amount of investment each of us had was too unbalanced. It had only taken him a few hours to write, but it had taken me hundreds of hours to paint. He had too little of himself invested in it to really sell it. At least I have those pieces in my portfolio, but I admit, I never did return to Gouache and that was almost fifteen years ago.

Whippo Morpha Chris Hong’s art has inspired me to master gouache. I used to do well with acrylic then got used to digital art and then got used to alcohol based markers. Trying to not let the stressful time of the last time I painted stop me from painting again. I hope the OP will give gouache another try. Like I’m giving painting another try. After I committed to be underpaid for a painting for an event when I could barely afford to paint it. But I did it anyways I hate seeing pictures of that painting now lol

This illustration is beautiful!!! I'm happy that you didnt give up on this, sometimes it's all worth it at the end❤
I know how frustrated one can be as an artist, and no-one else understands, being like "Omg what's your problem it's so good!", when it's actually not. But let me tell you, in all honesty, that's just an artwork and you have to believe me, even though your creations seem not as good to yourself as they actually are. They are outstanding really. Just very, very good job!
I am so glad there is still artists who work with paint and hand!! I don't hate computer art, some artists create amazing works of art, but hand made art is still the best for me. Love your work
This reminds me of the setup at Disneyland’s animation studio drawing class because it has all the shelves and dolls with the cartoon brushes 😍

dammn! it's one of the most prettiest illustration I ever see!! I was crazy when I look at the thumbnail, I'm still crazy...come on u're an awesome artist! be confident u are badass!!
I relate to this whole video when you talk about putting pressure on yourself and worrying about showing an amazing WIP then not making a WOW finished. About not painting from joy and rather feeling as if it's a chore. Part of me is happy to pressure myself because, there are too many artists out there that they just draw from joy and don't challenge or pressure themselves much and their style/skill doesn't evolve for a long long time. I don't want to be one of those artists. But I get SO ANGRY when a piece that should take me like 30mins-1hr takes me days, weeks, or months because I have to train my eye to study somethings for the piece or I didn't start the piece in the proper workflow and jammed myself. Keep making videos like this Chris! I'm a self taught artist with no art friends and these make me so happy to hear a hard-working, developing, struggling, artist to relate to.

"there are too many artists out there that they just draw from joy and don't challenge or pressure themselves much and their style/skill doesn't evolve for a long long time. " Totally agree, I'm one of those ! I think it's because when we see your work we are like "I will never reach that level" so we just enjoy ourselves, but I'm glad great artists continue to improve, it's inspiring ! That said, I tkink being always on pressure to make a great art isn't productive, I have a friend who's really good (far better than me) but when we worked together he didn't send us any sketch because "it isn't good enough" while I did a lot ; it wasn't great but people liked it, and at least, the work was done ; It's difficult to find the good balance between challenging and enjoyement :/ Sorry for bad english, have a nice day :)

#Melon Dick What you say is truth and your experiences are par for the course with creative people. IMO, those "easy" pieces that should be done in a flash but take tectonic plate slowness to do are also among the best teachers you can have. I know this from experience. I certainly have had loads of pieces fight me tooth and nail--and lose. I won, and that's a feeling all artists worth their salt should know. You need not feel that you have no art friends. I am around and there are fine artists on KZread, like Chris Hong here who are talented, honest, and able to teach.

This is so unbelievably beautiful 💕So many details ... I am SPEECHLESS. You should be really proud of yourself. It doesnt matter how long it takes to finish, as long as you are satisfied with the result. :)
The lighting, the colors scheme, the idea, it's just amazing! Very talented!
This picture is so wonderful so beautiful!!!
You should be really proud of this painting!! You have really created an interesting scene with so much details and I can't believe you manage to tie everything together!! Very impressive and interesting to watch ❤️❤️❤️
I feel like this painting could inspire a Disney movie 😀
This is gorgeous!! I thought it was gorgeous ages ago, when you hated it lol. You should work for Disney. Subbed.
awesome illustration I can all the effort and time it took you If I can say something is that if you could plan your light sources first then you can know how to place the shadows more as a group than as separate objects.here its hard to see whats the main source of light of many objects and they dont look unified.awesome for going through this you have learnt a lot from this for sure!
The cat is also an artist and they are making art together!!! 🥰 aw my heart! The light, the color, this turned out amazing ❤️
"That's how I spent my time painting this piece." said through frustrated laughter is so relatable. I feel so relieved to see others reflecting on similar mistakes I make :D
Okay... Who are you, and how do you not have a million subscribers???!!! This has to be one of THE most MAGICAL paintings I have ever seen. Ever. I'm mesmerized. I don't subscribe to things often, but I subscribed to your channel just because of this video. I am in absolute awe. I wish I could paint like this! Wow. WOW.
First I thought it was in digital...And it's really incredible for traditional art.
I think this is one of your best pieces because of the interplay of all the different objects-really good.
Wow! I cannot begin to tell you how much this video meant to me. Watching you transform this piece to the spectacular end was so transfixing, and then hearing you share the struggles and emotion roller coaster you experienced was soooo validating as a fellow artist who is not as experienced and productive yet. Thank you! I am glad I watched that. Would love to buy a print! 👌🏼🤩

This is my first time watching one of your videos, and I love how honest you were about your process. I’m only an amateur artist, but I completely relate to your feelings to the piece. In addition, your methodical approach to painting really inspired me to think harder when planning my own pieces.
This painting was amazing to see come together. Please never stop painting 💕
It's so helpful to hear about your thought process as you're making your paintings
This has given me the motivation to continue 5x4 ft acrylic painting that I currently have on an easel in my living room... it's been sitting there for a few months now, mostly done, but there are a few things that I just can't get right and I've gone over them again and again. They're background detail, but it's driving me insane. I love the rest of the painting, so I'm now looking forward to finishing the piece.
I love seeing the art supplies and little creatures in this painting - they’re all so cute! Your details are amazing. You really put thought and planning into your artwork.
Your videos are great. I love that you're not scared to share your struggles. It helps realise that it's not all just smooth sailing even for someone as talented as you!
The results are seriously SOOO BEAUTIFUL WOOWW
Your painting truly is magical
That you for sharing your struggles. You don't understand how much it helps encourage new artists such as myself.
This video made me finish some projects that I hated so much. This is more than the finish product but the journey of an artist that I believe everyone experiences. Thank you so much for this.
Thanks for sharing your process and your feelings about it. Well done!
This is one of the most precious things I've ever watched!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with all of us! 💜
I really appreciate your honesty in this video, a lot of the time artists on KZread seem picture perfect and to never struggle with their work, which isn't reality. Love your work❤️
This painting is absolutely gorgeous dang
Wow 🤩 so pretty, colourful, snd reminds me of my cosy childhood 💕love the way you paint and explain and take us through the process. Would love to see more of your start to finish and inspiration for other paintings . ❤️
Chris!!! Look what you made!!! Its so cute!! I definitely understand the stress and anxiety you can place on yourself when you're trying to finish a piece, especially when trying to teach. But you stuck through it, you got out of your own way, and finished an adorable and very complex piece of art for your portfolio. I love the additions you made to liven it up. They made the piece. I know it's a struggle, but try not to be so hard on yourself. There is no time table when creating something to be enjoyed. Social media is a tool that can quickly turn a passion into something you might despise. Remember to always see it as a tool to get your message across; the message you originally wanted to share. It'll help you find the sun through the clouds. Again, great job and I (and I'm sure everyone else) am anxiously waiting to see what other wonderful pieces you come up with (without the added pressure to perform.) :)

thank you for sharing your struggles and the gorgeous end results! Sometimes the struggle an artist goes through is really not something others can understand, and even though we might get to caught up in little things and make a big deal out of things, its important to listen to other artists going through the same problems to better navigate things through

This piece is actually incredible. The texture of the background actually adds a lot of depth and contrast with the smooth subject of the picture. The colors look beautiful together, and your style is absolutely gorgeous!! It looks like it was done digitally. It's kind of a masterpiece.
I love that you show all the work that goes into the art. People think it's fast and easy if you are talented...it's still WORK! Also I love that you show all the valuable stages of planning, value studies, color studies, etc. The final always reflects all your hard work!

This is super! There is something so magical about watching you paint! Nice!
Love how you shared your process! When I first started painting I wanted to throw every piece away halfway through. It took me awhile to realize that if you trust the process it will work for you. Sometimes the very best thing you can do is walk away from a painting and then come back at a later date. It's easy to miss the forest for the trees. Also, drying makes such a difference in how things sort of start to blend together and become more cohesive. So good to learn from "mistakes". Way to persevere!
