It’s sort of gives a refreshing feeling of sorts, I dunno if the it’s the vibe he has on his desk or a digital artist (most of the time) doing traditional art.
finally i can now draw excellent faces on my stickfigures
It’s so nice to see artists as practiced as Sam struggle in the same ways I do sometimes with faces. It helps you to realize that “failure” as Sam calls it, is normal and even good at times to help you grow. It makes my own failures feel less detrimental to my art journey

12:45 - When I started doing more anatomy practice with muscular men, I found that drawing action stars works very well for that! Actors such as Sylvester Stallone and Dolph Lundgren were my main references for muscular male bodies because they are two of my absolute favorite actors. I don't think I would have learned the anatomy as well as I did if I had not drawn guys I really liked.
I was just facing an art block and I started drawing today after 7 whole days and was struggling with faces this video inspired me to draw faces no matter however they are and also just because of you I started my first sketchbook. So thanks sam ❤ And I am seeing many comments about how you posted this video on the perfect timing and it is true, in my case too!😊
This video has just given me so much motivation alone to try more traditional through watching you sketch. 🙏 I’m so happy you’ve shared this with us-I’ve been in an artblock for months now and it’s been so draining, I’ve tried atleast a doodle each week, but what was throwing me off each time was my faces. And I’ve been wondering how will I learn to draw them better, and this video has helped tons already. Thank you so much Sam
This is amazing. Like you mention a lot, I also think artists on social media tend to just show their best pieces, and not all of their mistakes, or even their practice, but seeing your thinking and also some of your mistakes you make will probably be really reassuring first a lot of people :)
we need a birb webtoon showing their love and how they are having issues in their love life bcuz of sam

''Every single masterpiece that you see is built up on a mountain of poo.'' Literally the best quote/advice ever.
I went back drawing traditionally and I got so used to digital it was so off. But it was nice to see that I have made progress and my art looks good. This is motivating!
Haven't drawn in 8 months cus I was feeling insecure about my faces but thanks to Sam I drew and I think they came out pretty good❤❤
As someone who is fascinated by sketching I love this. It would be also nice if you make a video about sketching techniques/linework and some tips of how to generally filter out details from the reference but still to keep the look of the reference.
Sam we need coloring and anatomy videos too please, YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE I LISTEN TO😭
His content is so entertaining and helpful at the same time. You learn a lot and the way he is delivering it - so much sass and humor - makes it even better. I would listen to an audiobook spoken by him.
Art is not all about perfection. It’s about creativity and fun to do! Let your mind be free doesn’t matter it’s ugly. Sometime making mistakes is the key of success like Pablo Picasso, his work is amazing!
This was so so so helpful. I love that you focused on giving your followers specific strategies that they can apply to their own studies and drawings to create an individualized plan for themselves. In hearing how you were able to assess your drawings and make a plan for improvement helps me a lot because I often just blindly start over and "hope" the next one looks better. So I like the amount of time you gave to the importance of intention. Thank you for posting this amazing video.
I got sick today, so this was lovely to wake up to!!! Thanks for posting, Sam. I'm a traditional sketch artist, so I really really enjoy content like this!!!
this video was complete fire. Your pacing is great, you're funny, and you gave a lot of helpful, actionable advice. I have been drawing for the past 9 months, and made a ton of progress, but portraits are like the last big hurdle to deal with, and your advice on putting in the reps is great. I'll be starting tomorrow morning. Thanks so much Sam!
I’m so glad I found this video. I’m older and struggle with proportions for portraits . This is very helpful. Thank you so much🤗
I’ve been drawing for a long time and honestly doing only practice and studies for so long that I forgot why I wanted to draw in the first place… Still working on figuring that out, but you inspired me to try and practice with something I love more
thank you soo much Sam for the tips. My art has improved soo much ever since I started watching your videos.
I loved this video! Not only watching you draw, but also hearing your thoughts about every page and character, what you did to try to improve, and so on. Very heplful! Would love to see more of this style of video!
I have watched 12 or 13 art instructors so far, and I find you to be the most compelling and motivational.
Thank you so much for this man. Ive been drawing for years and this past month I have not enjoyed creating art at all, if things don’t look good within the first few lines I get frustrated and quit. This video reminded me to be loose with my art, not getting bogged down on every detail. I’ve now created a piece which I actually like and had fun creating and only in 10 mins too. Sorry that this was lengthy but I can’t express how much this video helped me ❤
He had the audacity to say beginner friendly😂😂
This was so inspiring, I immediately picked up my sketchbook! Btw love that you do traditional art once in a while, because I'm personally not the best at digital art because of the way the pencil flows on the screen, thank you
bro this vid is so well spoken. Damn it's actually better than any other vid anyone gonna ever watch....if a beginner saw this vid they would be so much better at drawing rather than watching random Loomis method vids....bro explained the thing correctly and simply ! well done !
Once again you have perfect timing. I absolutely love your content and it has helped me so much
This is just what I needed to solve my art block. Thank you Sam for saving me from the clutched of death. 😂❤❤
THANKS FOR THE MOTIVATION I NEEDED, SAM!!
This was a refresher! I was struggling on sketching recently and now I can allow myself to draw more freely and not stiffly. Sam should fr start doing live streams

Would love to see a livestream someday of you just sketching in your sketchbook while talking to chat!
Thanks Sam, I am a beginner to art but am making steady progress; you and the other wonderful artists on KZread are a lifesaver.
I'm a portrait artist but still enjoy sketching like Sam did here. This guy is fun, knowledgeable, and realistic about how to practice drawing. I seldom subscribe on a first view, but I did tonight! Can't wait for more!
Something Sam does here (that's not really explained at all, especially to newer artists) is really important to understand if you're a beginner: Sketch like a painter. Don't fill, indixcate. Let me explain: He almost never fills in every single line for every single feature, detail, etc. Rather, he *indicates* these details and leaves gaps in the lines, or variance in the lines, or different levels of thick and thin in said lines. All of this for the face, eyes, nose, shape of the face, the hair, everything. You need gaps and variance, it's important. The shading works the same way, Different levels of dark in the shading, sometimes it's ultra light or ultra dark. It's how you get things to look natural and not "forced". Hope this helps!
This is exactly what the art babies need to hear 👏 Love Sam keeping it real with his art
I was practicing some anatomy of faces and I found the perfect motivation video to remind myself to don’t give up and keep up with fun :D
Super helpful for a beginner. Much appreciated! However, while the actual sketching skills detailed in this video are a great place for me to start, probably the most helpful line in this entire video was "And if you're not already drawing right now, close KZread down. STOP IT! Okay? Pick up a pencil. What are we waiting for?" Off to draw I go! Thanks again for a great video.
Happy new years man, thankful to have ran into your KZread page, I started drawing again after 10+ years, since my wife got me the iPad with the pencil. Keep them tutorials going
These little sketches are so cool!! You really simplified them but they look incredible. It really shows that you don’t have to draw every single detail to have an amazing drawing
Traditional art Sam!!! Let’s go. Keep up the great content. Thank you for never failing to make me laugh.😊
Man ur just awesome! I love your humor as well as the calmness of your voice aligned with all this knowledge! Always a joy to watch with great new insights. Thanks for what you do!
This is a really good way to keep the basics always up in the head , practicing for less time but pretty much often
Perfect timing. I just resolved to get better a faces with more practice. Thanks!
Uma coisa que abriu meus olhos foi que mesmo um artista com tantos anos de prática e estudos ainda tem alguns problemas com os fundamentos e sempre continua os praticando para se tornar cada vez melhor. Você é uma das minhas inspirações na arte, seu conteúdo com certeza está ajudando muita gente 👏
This is great, amazing work! These are continuous line drawings btw, a contour drawing is when you usually only draw the outline (the contour) of an object but more importantly this done while not looking down at the page. You “scan / trace” the contour with your eyes and blindly move your hand at the same time, drawing the same part you’re looking at, without looking at your page. It’s really cool to do, you’ll surprise yourself!
I tried drawing some faces after watching this video and I think it's the first time I actually feel proud of the result, thank you!
FINALLY MY REQUST HAS BEEN ANSWERED!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH SAM!
Can we just talk about how nice Sams apartment is like- damn 😮
I don't know what videos gain the most views or likes, but all I know is that I LOVE these videos!!!! They are so inspiring and it is so amazing that you show all of your work so everyone understands the normal process. Keep up the good work and Merry Christmas!
This was incredibly helpful! Thank you!
Now we need Sam to show us his old poo drawings and draw them again by showing us what when wrong and how to improve them
Seeing sam leave unfinished sketches too makes me feel better
❤❤ Thank you so much 🙏🙏. I struggle with drawing faces so this is really helpful
"loosen me up" is WILD 😭😭
You don’t know how much I needed this 😭
I always love these videos, such great art! Pencil drawings are so fun
Please make a video on guide to learning anatomy like what you should learn first please 🙏🏻(eyes ,nose,hands,lips,body) cause there is so much to learn and I don’t know where to start 😭
Thanks Sam! You're my biggest inspiration to being artist!
Your mindset is so good and infectious!
Enjoying your content sam!
I love how i can see the struggle and the train of thought here. As an artist, I was able to empathize with everything 😭
This is the missing gap in drawing lessons on yt. We need MOAR practice content. THANKS!
I always love seeing Sam work traditionally
“this looks like a toddler drew it” that’s how i draw😭🙏
you're fast sam, I made that comment literally yesterday! I'll watch this one as soon as I'm off mobile data ❤️ thank you for your service o7
I do traditional art but seeing u do it is surprisingly impressive and ur art style is very accurate and amazing
I just found your content and instant subscribe. Thank you Sam.
Either traditional or digital, Sam really nails it. Like always.
this is the kind of video you come back to over and over again
Thank you! This is super helpful
You've drawn more sketches than I've drawn all year

i like how sam doesn't just do digital art
Love the way you draw
Great video. Hope to see more of these🎉
Wow, he drew a sardar! Nice sketches. I really love the vibes.
I love this. ❤️ Please do more videos like this!!
Sam’s basic shading is better than my advanced shading 😅
sam: draw the characters you love me, omw to draw the same man for 28th time today: gotcha 👍
Would love to see more sketch videos from you! I've learned a lot from watching your channel.
I’m not enjoying it as much cuz I’m always thinking of how I’d have to make it a career, which makes me spiral down not being “company quality” or like “the greats” or people on social media. To an extent its true to practice is good, I should try and make money from drawing, but when I never make anything for myself and everything is constant studies, I begin to despise the practice because it just feels like work without an immediate payoff. So practice and make it fun. But also plan to make a project. No matter how small, tie it to your skill level and mark down those accomplishments and milestones.
Thx for the tips!!!
This was very helpful! Thank you!
This came right on time cause I've been struggling with drawing faces with reference for a minute now and its been stressing me out 😖Thank you so much Sam! Its always a delight to learn from you and thanks for saving me from this headache
I've been insecure about my faces lately and have felt like they've fallen far behind how I draw the rest of the body, especially with how comfortable I've gotten at doing gesture drawing. I've been doing the 100 heads challenge to work on this issue, so I'm glad to see repetition was the way to go! And to people in the comments worried about the fact they cannot draw this good this fast, just slow down! Its okay. The more practice you get, the more you find your flow and understand the underlying construction and parallels, the faster you will work. You can find this speed later. I also recommend doing studies of the skull, muscles of the face, different expressions, ages, and ethnicities, angles, etc. There's lots of awesome portrait photography out there you can reference for your studies, so have fun with it!
Can't tell what goes harder, the sketches or Sam's chain
Sam is the goat of art!
every time i watch your videos and draw at the same time i feel like im improving from a minute to a minute
