You draw in a very classical Disney way. All your sketches look like Golden Age Disney sketches from the 30-50's.

Very impressive! I'm so happy to see so much dedication in your process; seems I've been stuck in a world where the planning is hidden so it's "not as important" so it's rushed and neglected. Also that you're taking the time to do value and color comps traditionally is so refreshing, treating each part of the process with care. Thanks for sharing!

Its funny how it doesn't hit me when my teachers tell me to plan out sketches before hand, but seeing someone else make so many preparation makes me realize I'm just rushing into my pieces with a general idea and then scratching my head when it doesn't work out! Now I really enjoy exploring different ideas and directions and getting feedback from others during the process. Thank you for the videos and posts of all this prep work!

I get bored easily and I also don't have a lot of energy. So if a painting of mine doesn't get done within a few hours or at most, a day then I just move on to something else. So as I would love to plan out my illustrations like you do, because I believe my illustrations would turn out better in the long run, it's too many steps (for me) and I would just get frustrated that I haven't finished a piece within a few hours.

I'm always so impressed at your knowledge of lighting and colour theory. That's something I've always lamented not being taught, even in art college. The way the colour of light affects the colour of the surroundings, the way light falls and diffuses... It's such a basic thing that any artist should understand but it still boggles my mind today and I adore watching you be able to paint it out with ease. Backgrounds too! It really motivates me to try and study it all more. Thank you for the inspiration! 8D

This leave no one in doubt of your professional attitude to creating beautiful illustrations. The walk through was eye opening for a lot of people who perhaps imagined you did just one take and that was that. It certainly gives your customers a window into how hard you work to present them with amazing products. Thank you for sharing.

You are so insightful but also fun to listen to that this video is educational in the nicest way possible

I was doin' alright and then you got to the value comps and I lost my mind. Those are some pretty incredible skills.

All the "complete process" videos on KZread seem to start from the point where idea, composition and even values have already been figured out, which leaves out some of the most challenging, interesting parts! So I'm super grateful for this video. Beautiful!

That is so cool. I realized that I'm such a lazy artist lol. Those were so many steps, I've never done that for anything I've ever drawn... would explain a lot of things 😂 Thanks for the inside look, it was very informative

I guess I'm comparing myself to some other artists who seem to do A LOT more than I do 😂😂 everyone has a different process though, I wish I could plan less and jump straight into it more tbh! I'm way too indecisive for that though :/

It's obvious you are able to see flaws in your work than no one but you can see. Your work looks like perfection in cartoon art.

23:39 damn this is so small and you can draw so many details in such contrast. I love this 🤭

Hi Chris, great video, I just realised this is what I suck at, I want to draw a few guidelines and jump right into painting...skipping the entire planning phase. I never knew so much planning goes on behind the scenes. Thanks gor sharing!! X

I love you pencil I wish that with the lead type was in your description!

This was incredibly informative! It's the first time I've seen a process that incorporates scanning the thumbnails, cleaning them and then printing them onto paper for value tests and colour comps! It's certainly a really good way to feel things out and reduce the risks of being dissatisfied whilst painting the final piece. It does make for a longer prep phase though. I'll definitely try this out on my own, and see what I can use! Thanks for sharing this video!

I kinda loved when you were switching out the character poses. It just blended a little to feel like she was moving around.

The reddish one looks more like a quiet and warm afternoon, it has it's own atmosphere but not the one you wanted I guess. It was an interesting video ! A lot of steps I don't know if I would be able to still paint my piece if I did as many steps as you, I'm bored very easily and I can get bored of a piece even if it's only the sketch or if I directly begin to paint it. But that's interesting to see how the steps and how the idea move, what path it follows, how it follows some technical and visual rules but still how you try to make it concords with what you have in your mind !

Wow.... wish I had this kind of patience and perseverance. I guess that’s why I am where I am, nowhere 🤷‍♀️ and you are where you are. This is amazing. I really need to knuckle down and take more time planning.

It's amazing to understand the amount of planning that goes in to each painting! Thank you!

Yes!!! Thank you so much for showing your process with such detail! Excited for part 2!

Excited for part II. Love your process!

You do so much of planning for your artworks. It's brilliant and beautiful. This video was a real treat. Thanks.

The value and color comp are something that I must do from now on. That's so smart and time saving to do before painting, I love it!

Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. I can’t wait for the full painting video! You’re so inspiring!!

This was so informative. I actually got really frustrated when I was drawing tonight but seeing this made me feel better in that editing, fine tuning and starting over is just a part of the process. I never do thumbnails, I usually just go right in and draw but in seeing your process I think it's a way better idea to plan things out first. And seeing this picture inspired me to do something similar with having an actual environment for a character to be in. I never done a picture like that so I'm excited to try it and see what happens! :) I would love to see more videos like this! I'm in a place where I'm drinking in as much artistic information as I can to better my skills and creative process! :D So much love and unicorn magic! Kai

Love how in depth this is. There are so few artists I watch that go into the process like this, and I love it so much.

Thumbnails are one of my favorite things to look at

I love your drawings. You use up space so well . Every curve shares important information and the gestures are so beautiful!

This is one of the most helpful art videos I have ever seen! Thank you so much for recording it all, and for showing how much every step is worth it to create a more interesting and better final piece.

I am glad you filmed this - it is very helpful. I admire how thoughtful you are about your paintings, I never spent so much time planning. Now I am convinced and inspired I need to spend much more time on explorations, it seems to be worth it.

Wow this is amazing. I’ve never seen anyone going through such process, it’s so much dedication and I love it. Only if I put as much effort in my paintings! Also, you explain so well everything, it’s really motivational

This video is one of the most interesting videos about creating art I've seen on youtube! Your skills are amazing and gosh, talk about dedication to make a piece come to life! I really enjoyed going through all the steps, from thumbnailing to the different pose studies and the value comps. Thanks for sharing this with us!

Thank you so much to show everyting that you struggles when you draw pictures. It really helpful to me how to plan drawing. You are so honest and kind. I truly love your works.

Everytime I watch you draw thumbnails in your videos it brings such strong joy to my heart, they are so full of life and happiness, absolutely love seeing you create these beautiful little sketches ❤

Thank you for sharing this video, the process of you work is so motivated to try to be more patient and organized before the final drawing and painting.

Your process is so refined! I usually just draw an idea 1-3 times. I like how you worked out the focal point and really thought it through. It shows in the final piece. Lovely!

No one on KZread makes a better video then you Chris! Your explanations are just incredible.

Wow the amount of time and care you put in every step of the process is impressive! Definitely inspires me be more dedicated to the process as well as you make it seem as important as the final!

The amount of detail in the commentary was really useful! It made me think about how rushed my own process is and how I could definitely afford to slow down and think more about composition and lighting. Thanks :)

This was so incredibly helpful, I can't thank you enough for showing such an absolutely in depth look at thumb nailing. I used to just leap into a final drawing so often, I felt like I only needed to do a couple poses and boom I was ready to go but being able to go back and watch stuff like this really helps me slow down and know not only is it okay to do several takes of the same pose, it's encouraged. I don't paint but I have a feeling doing value studies and color comps will be a big help too. Thank you so much! Beautiful work.

I keep coming back and rewatching this video! So helpful and motivating. Thank you for sharing your process

I love your cartoony style. It's refreshing to see traditional techniques again. You inspire me to keep pushing my own work.

Wow, that's so awesome! Can't wait for part 2!

This is probably the best planning video I've seen... It is packed with fantastic info and learning material! Thank you for making it!!

Wow Chris, I really enjoyed this video. it's a good reminder that great illustrations take work!

Chris! Your videos have helped me in ways i didnt even know could be helped?? You remind me a lot about myself; sometimes overthinking things, sometimes not having enough confidence, sometimes giving up. But seeing you THINK through it and NOT give up inspires me to do the same 💖 so thank you so much for your videos and i wish you the most success!!! 💖💖💖

It was awesome learning about your process! Thank you for making this video. It was helpful to see how I could learn from your process. I am not sure I even have a process, so this was cool.

I love this! KZread recommend this to me and i am so happy it did. I love the process you go through and im definitely going to give it a go myself 😍 the final outcome on your other video is honestly spectacular !

Chris thank you very much for sharing your process!

There's something about your videos that always makes me want to paint or draw, thank you!

your process is so helpful to look at, and really inspires me to go out and practice even more. I think your process showcases just how important it is to be patient and allow yourself for a good product, or at least one you learn a lot from, from taking the time to learn and apply your knowledge of value, color, comp, etc. in order to get the result you want even if doing all the variations is a bit time consuming. Excellent work. I'm definitely so inspired to go out and do a lot of these kinds of studies/applications to my personal work! I really love your stuff--I follow you on social media, but had no idea you also had a youtube channel... really happy it was put in my suggestions, lol

Definitely help me figured out my own planing process, I feel that I'm doing a lot of the same and i have to explore more! Thank You! It's amazing!!! 💛

Wow! This is amazing. You're so dedicated and it was really nice of you to share your process with the world

I love how all the comps look together with the sketches. Makes the process work seem like a story! Thank you for sharing!

i really love video like this , when artist share their thought process, this is amazing, i think im learning so much stuff from your talks

this was a really fun watch. I feel like I learned a lot about the way you think- I think I need to start doing value studies as well as colour comps because I need to get better at values. Wonderful video.

This is really useful. I will definitely change the way I work from now on. Constantly redrawing the bits I'm not happy with, doing value and colour comps. Your running commentary as you make decisions about your drawing is very informative and adds an extra dimension that makes your demonstration greater than the sum of its parts. This is well worth watching more than once. Thanks!

Wow this is impressive! I WILL take some of your planning process! Thanks, and the illustration is just beautiful!!!

So helpful, thank you Chris! My art tends to end at the thumbnail lmao this was really inspiring. I love your paintings so much, cant wait for part 2!

hey I love that you made this video, it really helps show people how much we think about our art, try and try again, and how it's not magical or instant. :) your thought process and efforts all throughout are so interesting and helpful!!!

From one artist to another, your work is incredible ❤👏🙏. Really looking forward to watching more 😍

Oh my, this video is priceless. Thank you for sharing the process, I wish someone showed me sooner how to plan an illustration.

I dread complex compositions with dense detailing. The key is to make it fun and avoid "dead spots". It's a LOT of work! Very well done!

Watching this makes me wish I could have worked with you in my studio for the last 20 years. I know it sounds amazing but watching how you moved through this piece and made your decisions along the way is something that I've always wished I knew how to do and I've always wanted to observe because in my line of work (editorial illustration) the trick was always FAST FAST FAST and then it was onto the commission, landing the next piece. I literally never learned to move through work like this carefully... and I feel like my art has really suffered because of it. I am shaking off the dust from the last 20 years and relaunching my career in all new ways. This video was a great help and it has been a huge light for me... thank you x 1,000,000! Liked and subbed! :)

This is so interesting! Thanks for sharing! Never heard of someone doing the shading and light comps... makes so much sense

So inspiring, watching this just makes me want to make art right away.....

Thank you for sharing your planning process! It reminded me that I should do more thumbnails and different lighting scenarios for my own work. 😅 Also your videos always inspire me so I had to save this one for the morning thus giving it the full attention it deserves. Can't wait to see the finished piece!

If you did your colour comps on a layer in photoshop you could experiment with your palette more/faster and save a fortune in the drafting paper!

Yeah, but by doing it with Gouache she practices how to do the washes, gradients and other Technics she would use in the final illustration, but yes, the Photoshop trick is really useful, and economic! You should watch Mateusz Urbanowicz's KZread channel, he paints watercolor landscapes and anime backgrounds, and he does color comps in Photoshop

Amazing video!❤️ Your approach is so serious and complex, I want you to be my teacher 😄 I'm working digital artist but not so long ago I started toying with watercolor and alcohol markers. And so deciding colors is the biggest problem I have. It was interesting to see how you did black and white composition first and then colors too, separately. The video is really informative and entertaining too! Can't wait to see your final piece.

This video was another excellent view into your planning and execution of a piece. And, I appreciated the bonus of seeing your digital process. I also liked seeing the state of your paint palette with all the colours melded into a mash in the background, which is something that was hidden from our view on your actual drawing. It’s a lovely composition and choice of colours.
