The portrait tracing video from a few months ago (kzread.info/dash/bejne/qW2Mq62EhrvdXaQ.html) was one of my most requested tutorials since starting the channel. So after almost 2 years of avoiding the whole thing, I finally decided to bite the bullet and do a tracing video. Do I believe you can actually learn how to draw by tracing? Absolutely not! But it turns out that the portrait tutorial has been a great way to get people to dip their toes into the world of digital art and to show them that they can do it. I've had comments from people who started with my other tracing video and, within a few days, realized they really like drawing. From there, they moved on to "from scratch" tutorials, which is AWESOME! So if someone is reading this and feeling bad about tracing, just remember that no, you won't learn to draw by tracing. But it might still be a great way to discover a new hobby! Plus, we're on KZread; we're all about having fun here. So it's ok to just switch our brain off for a while 🤍 That being said, please keep in mind that tracing a picture you don't own is stealing, so make sure to work either on a picture you/someone you know took or a copyright-free picture. Also, advertising a traced image as an original illustration is questionable. Plus, people can tell 😉 If you're someone who doesn't like tracing their art, then good for you! I'm the same. But that doesn't mean we get to attack people who just want a good time.

I like that Waffle is completely white for this tutorial. I'd also love a realistic drawing of him. One color animals are intimidating to draw

Waffle is completely adorable!♥️

Thanks so much for this. I’m so excited as I have been trying to create my grand puppy and now I can. Bless you!!

I love that u add the brush to use in a bubble on the tutorial. Super helpful!

Gunner . Thank you for another wonderful tutorial. You’re kindness is very appreciated. ❤

Exactly what I needed to draw my cat Flower. Thank you!

I agree with your stance on tracing. In fact, tracing helped me get used to the motions and helped build my confidence when I was an absolute beginner (and terrible at art but desperately wanted to improve my skills in private.) I went from tracing (and never posting the tracing anywhere even if it was my original content,) to closely trying to mimic things, to original concepts. I'm still very much on the beginner side of intermediate, but allowing myself to 'cheat' is what helped me start my journey to begin with. I feel like tracing is like training wheels on a bike. You're going to have to take them off eventually, but if you are terrified to ride in the first place the wheels are going to help you get through that first step. I super appreciate your content, especially since switching to Procreate has been such a jarring change for me. But your videos are helping me build my foundation and I am already feeling so much more confident 💖

Such a cute puppy ❤️❤️❤️ can’t wait to draw with you ❤️

Loved this tutorial so much!!! 🥰

One of my favorites ❤️

Such a detailed tutorial! Thank you so much! My cat Parker! I love how it turned out!

This tutorial is super helpful and paced very well! Thank you so much for teaching me how to draw a cartoon picture

Waffle is so cute! I’m doing our Pomsky, Nala 💖🐕

I love ur drawings they are soo good!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial!!

Ahwooo! Waffle is adorable 💜🐶 I've been trying to figure out how to draw all the pets in my household-- Yahtzee (black lab), Monkey (orange cat), Loki (greyish brownish cat), and Lucy (multicolor dog) -- so this is super useful. I'm never quite sure how much detail to put in, but this at least gives me somewhere to start.

Philliam de boi! Thanks so much for this--I really enjoyed cartooning my dog, and I learned a few tricks too. You're the best 🎉🎉🎉

Hoki, Jango and Betty.. Thank you for the tutorial.. i just learning how to draw digitally and i want to draw my babies.. especially Hoki.. my white FurBaby.. thank you💓💓

Very helpful, and surprisingly therapeutic

Thank you for this video it's beautiful and I learned so much just great

Yes I do thank you🥳!!!

Doing this for our pup, Kiowa. I'm handmaking a Pokemon card using this drawing for my husband for Christmas. He's loves this dog more than life (and sometimes me lol), and I can't wait until he opens it! Would love a tutorial on this for a pet with multiple colors :)

Thak you for this video. 😊👍

Thanks !

YAYAYAYAYYAYA YESSS i love your channel thank you

Waffle is soooooo cute!!!❤❤❤😊😊

All your tutorials are great (also just to watch and destress without drawing) but this one made me SO happy! I have a Samojed my self, named Sirius, and have been wondering how best to draw a white dog. Once I get an Ipad, I'm definitely going to try to draw him following along with this tutorial ❤️

Waffle .... is adorable!! A maremma, I think?

Apollo. Thanks this was helpful. So glad your puppy is white. Apollo is white too and drawing him always confused me before.

A great tutorial as always! I had to take a little break from drawing but this seems like the best tutorial to get back at it. I'll be drawing my cat and her name is Shifu

Hi Genevieve! First I want to say that your tutorials are awesome, then I would like to see if you can do more of a color variation. Or perhaps a cat with 3 colors? And blending colors.. idk if I’m making myself clear 😂😂😂 but you know. Thanksss again!!

My pet died so this truly helpful to draw my cat.

I drew my pet after watching the “ CARTOON yourself! “ video. I really love the result! By the way, my doggo’s name is Solar.

At 30:35 (and elsewhere in the video) you instruct to place layers in a certain order, e.g. you say to put the shadow layer above any colour layers but below the line art. Why? Thank you.

@GenevievesDesignStudio

Жыл бұрын

The layer list is a bit like a pile of transparent pieces of paper, with the top of the list being the top of the pile. By putting the shadow layer above color layers and using a blending mode, the shadows are going to be applied to your entire piece. In this case though, I wanted to keep the line art untouched, so putting the layer above the shadows meant it would not be affected 😊

Could you teach me why you started off with a black outline and then you did the alpha lock and made it lighter. How come you didn't make the line art layer with that final color, to begin with. I don't believe you taught that, and I was very curious.

@1tlsheffield

Жыл бұрын

I believe she did that because she used a darker shade of the color for each object to re-color the line art. It would be hard to do that in the beginning unless you were very certain about your color palette.
