"The shading was done wherever it went" is such a good way to encapsulate how beginners feel when shading. It felt like black magic to me

Or pure white magic. Your choice

The other advantage of lowering sketch opacity is it keeps you from doing the lineart on the sketch layer by mistake

My art is slowly improving. You are such an inspiration for my Art journey. I hope you keep thriving through your career and your amazing art! ❤

I love seeing artists redraw their old art, but it’s more fascinating when they deconstruct the process for each one to see what they’ve learned since then

I think the biggest w for me in my art journey is being able to look back at my old art and not hate it. Whenever i used to look back at my childhood art, i'd cringe so hard, but now i see it as a reminder that you arent an expert over night. And it also brings back happy memories. I can remember drawing stuff i was so proud of at the time, that doesnt look good to me now, but i can at least remember how happy it made me then.

3:25 personally,i believe that changes depending on your style. In her style, that's definetly right. But like in my style, wich is pretty messy, that second type of line makes It really pretty. So basically, you just do the line you want depending on wich one you're most comfortable with.

Man, having to look at your old art is both cringy as freak, but so satisfying at the same time. Really makes you realize how much you improved after so much practice. It's always lovely to see :D And also, OMG MY FANART WAS FEATURED AT THE END AFHUSFGEGBIULEW IM SO HAPPY THANK YOU ADBAWJFEW (I'm normal :) ).

I love how in the old video there was Caramelldansen playing in the background

well her lvl 1 is better than my whole art career

Even though I knew my shading was a big mistake, I still did it the wrong way... It's just hard to resist putting shadows wherever we could, lol. A big art journey always has the improvement! 😂

Your art has changed so much it’s so cute good job!❤

Isn't it 2024? Edit:Oh.She drew it at the end of last year.

I love mari she is so calm when talking about art style❤

It's incredible seeing how much you've improved! ✨✨

Your drawing style is amazing! (I love it! Just wanted to say that your style was great and your work is too!)

I really wish I recording my old speed paints, especially the ones I did on MS Paint cause wayyy too many of them still hold up til today. Like 12 year old me was on something else I could never now 😭

What a huge improvement! The pose on the new one looks more dynamic and I like how you drew the hair on the newer piece. By the way, I literally just noticed that you're from Portugal haha, kudos from Brazil!

Yeah. I like drawing artist like squidward, even know how to draw on this. Besides. It’s so freaking me out again. Yeah. I like it. That’s always my favorite art too.

Such a treat seeing this video

honestly i think its fine to just have one sketch and immediatly skip to line art because i used to struggle so much with the fact that my sketch looked better than my line art so now i draw a ruff sketch for the pose and the flow of the hair (cause its hard to draw) then make a tiny sketch in the corner of the page to figure out what i want the character to look like then i draw line art

Seeing your drawing experience might teach me on becoming an illustration.. Thank you Marikyunn

OMGGG the redraw is amazing!! It's so cuuute and let's not even mention the progress 😂 You forgot the hearts on the background tho!! Jk ❤️

3:27 it's ok to do like that if that is YOUR artstyle,i do like this it makes my artstyle unique:D

Actually the lineart is based off what style you use if you use more of a chibi artstyle then try to do more smooth lines and if your artstyle is more of a sketchy/messy artstyle then do kinda messy lines as long as you feel comfortable with it :D

Help the arms behind the back is such a mood 😭😭

Another awesome video by Mari

This video was the perfect boost to my Friday afternoon 💫

Im currently learning how to draw, i can indeed say support as a young artist really freaking helps when trying to stay motivated to continue doing it.

The only beginner artists you can make fun of, is the person who you have consent of, and yourself🎉🎉🎉🎉 ( if you want to ofc )

0:28 Fujiwara No Mokou :)

I love it😆😆😆!!! I would really love if you could post more videos like this

The transition into the sponsor was so smooth 👏

This drawings are super cute

Wow the redrawing is awesome!!!

The old art head sketch looks like a roblox woman head😂

This is so relatable my old arts are like that 😂

I remember finding a folder of my old drawings and found my favorite drawings,a really badly drawn vampire That drawing holds a special place in my heart just like how Mari holds her art journey in her heart (Why did I write old clothes instead of old drawings...)

I came here to tell you that i started chibi, because of you! I tried drawing like you, you are so inspirational as well! I love your art!

The dream got me

Thank you i will start lowering the scetch opacity from now on. I have been trying to do that for long time.

You're such an artist🤩

Eu fiquei maluco quando descobri que a Marikyuun é uma portuguesa. Eu digo isso sendo um Português. Marikyuun continua com o excelente trabalho🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹

You make beautiful art.

This video made me fill a lot better a bout my art that sounded ruder then intended

Your art is so good and cute 🥰❤

6:08 my tip for if you struggle to draw hands use your own hands as reference. I take a photo of my hand, trace the forms, then draw the hand I need to draw using the forms I traced and the photo if that makes sense

I remember feeling personally attacked when Mari talked about Chicken Scratch lines because I always do my lines like that, even when not drawing digitally 🙃 I hope young artists learn a lot from this drawing! I certainly did: I learned I have a lot to learn (maybe from skillshare hehehe plug)

haha i do that practice in school when im bored... THEN MY PAGE TURNS ALL MESSY AND EYE TORCHURINGGG💀💀

I just love your videos! ❤❤❤

"YOU WILL NEVER ESCAPE THE THICK LINES IN TNE OUTSIDE AND THIN LINES ON THE INSIDE"

"With an old Wacom tablet and a dream" **dream appears**

I wish I had videos of my old art. But I kept all my sketchbooks and digital files 😭

Well, I've found your video enlightening. Begun picking apart some of my own struggles drawing. I think I pathologically need steps. But then after all tutorials and tips, it ends on "now draw with these skills", so, due to how my mind works, when it hears "just draw" my mind throws out every technical skill I learned and begins trying to do lineart freehanded. My strokes have improved massively, my ability to create images has actually declined over the last decade. If I focus really hard.. maybe I can complete one piece of the image with blocking before I lose track and forget that's what I'm doing. Not sure what to do about this. I know about blocking, measuring, perspective points, proportions, reference, negative space, contours, just to name what I can off the top of my head... and the moment I reach "draw something" then I feel like I NEED to throw all that out and freehand it. I can't help it... anyway, I feel like I learned a bit more of my own problems watching this, even if I don't know how to work through it.

Better than anything I could do on a PC

My dad’s pic of me on whats app is one of my old cat girl drawings and i am now forever reminded

Ong I absolutely adore ur videos mari and im early!!

I like that Mokou drawing

i use chicken scratch for sketches😭 I DONT USE IT FOR LINEART I TRY TO KEEP IT AS SMOOTH AND CLEAN AS POSSIBLE

My art was not living with out me doing line art and bringing down the sketch layer so I can see line art better 😂😂

Maris wiki bio is going to be " Thick lines on the outside and thin lines on the inside!"

I heard the term "pillow shading" to refer to beginners way of shading.

Hi Marikyuun! I am super inspired by ur artwork and I love it to death! I kinda want to replicate your line work, but idk how to do it on IArtbook, can you show me how? Tysm, and I love you smm!

6:03 mitten hands jumpscare 😭

The girl from your old speedpaint reminded me of that girl from Shugu Chara are something like that lol

Think at 4:51 like those drawings are inspired by from the og og miku songs drawings people did

Luv you mari your my favourite artist ❤😊

I remember the black shade and the airbrush😭😭😭😭 Good thing is I have improved a little bit of digital art…But I don’t have a Apple Pencil😳😳😳😳

Her 12 year old:draws normal drawing* Me 10 year old:draws anime,human and specially realistic cats*

I do furry lines but I do it stylistically I just like that sort of sketchy like appearance on my art. I used to do perfect straight lines all the time where not a single line would be out of place and it took so much time. My lines are also very thin tho. And if it’s like way too furry then I just erase some of it

Nice

Instead of a wacom tablet I had a phone and a dream

No matter how awkward I feel when I look at my videos from over a year ago when I was very new to animation, I will never remove the cringe to remind myself how much i've improved. (and how less cringe i've gotten) Wait i just realized this comment might lead people to watching my old videos I shall be brave and not private them.

Hee hee, I found the old channel :)
