The hairspray one really depends on which type/brand of hairspray you use, wait until the spray is completely dry and make sure you sprayed every part. ALSO DO NOT USE THIS METHOD IF YOU COLORED WITH WATER/INK/ALCOHOL BASED MARKERS, it will smudge and soak through the paper since hairspray often contains water and/or alcohol. I've been using this method for years and it works great. Hope this helps :)

Yea, the point is to create an image inspired either from real life, or from your imagination, so it shouldn't matter what techniques are used to get to that end result. All that matters is the finished piece, and whether or not you are happy with how it looks. That being said, I do think that it's good to make sure students aren't reliant on blending stumps, because doing most of the blending with pencils gives you more control. Did he say that blending with your finger is cheating, too, or was it just blending stumps? If he was okay with finger blending, then that just doesn't make sense, because your finger gets oil and dirt all over your paper, so a blending stump would be far superior.

He was actually a really great teacher, I had him for 4 years and he was really invested in his classes. He ran the special art program at my high school so we all took 2 art credits a year and sometimes both were with him. He also recommended that we all paint exclusively with red, yellow, blue, and white paint, which was a bit extreme, but also a great exercise for becoming really good at colour mixing (and for saving money on paint lol). for some reason though it stuck with me the way he said blending stumps were cheating so I just never used them and didn't really think about why (I also didn't buy pre mixed paint colours for at least my first two years of university lol)

That 1st one works! I've done that with tracing paper since I was a kid! Trace it, flip it, heavy pencil lines. Turn back over, place on paper, retrace! Viola! The sketched version, that you can redraw, color, add flair to, etc! Using tracing paper, makes it even easier to see the original, rather than just scribbling a bunch on the back. You can actually just go over the "real" drawing", so no guessing if you got all the edges.

Jazza, you just saved my favorite brush with that hand sanitizer hack! I was cooking and painting at the same time (yes, bad idea) and when my food burned (you don't have to say it), I abandoned my paints to save dinner. A few hours later I remembered my brushes, but it was too late. I've held onto those rock hard brushes for 6 months. But 2 minutes working the hand sanitizer in and they're completely restored! I'm thrilled!!!

I love using a blending stump/stick! Would recommend for smooth blends when using media such as pencils, charcoal, coloring pencils, or similar. They work a bit differently with colored media so you’ll have to play around with it a bit to get used to the different blends, but it really helps to take traditional drawings to the next level. I’ve used the blending stick for 12 years now and would never leave it out of my media collection.

when it comes to the hairspray to prevent smudges it does work. you have to get the cheapest hair spray you can. high end sprays are mostly water and won't work. Hair Net spray is probably the best you can get for it. but then again you can use matte spray finishers like Jazza did, but they're a lot more expensive.

I've been seeing multiple hacks on my FYP for a while now and this is probably a sign to try em out for myself too lol!

In case of the hair spray hack, as far as I remember from my life drawing classes (loooong long long time ago) it depended on the brand, quality and/or composition of the hair spray and it required a little bit of trial and error to find one that would work (depending on what brands you could locally get). Usually the cheaper/crappier they were, the better they worked as sealants.

Blending stumps are so helpful!!! Used those for the first time in high school art. Same with using hair spray, particularly on pastel art!

About the sketch book thing, I do that too but not just with drawing. With anything on paper I tend to keep it all on one side cause I only really use pencil and I don't like it smearing, it also just feels right

The hairspray trick actually does work if you do a few layers and let them dry inbetween, it was something I learned to do in one of my drawing classes in college (works especially good for charcoal drawings). Of course an actual matte spray specifically designed for sealing is a better option but is more expensive

Another way to store custom mixed paint that you want to save? Silicone cosmetics containers for traveling. They are usually air tight, small, and washable. I recently found that using little silicone pots (commonly used for a certain resin smokeable substance) work even better, and you can get them for much cheaper than the travel cosmetic containers. I found a pack of 30 on amazon for $13 USD

I use the right side of my sketchbook because I’m right handed and the spiral bound sketchbooks I buy hurt my hand/wrist when I’m using the left side. It’s just more comfortable to use the right side. My media of choice is also usually sharpie or ink and it bleeds through to the back.

I recently became addicted to working with neon acrylics; I had pretty severe cataracts for the past several years, and (I thought) the neons were still lovely & bright. I’m now almost 8 weeks post-cataract removal surgery. I truly had no idea just how much I was missing, or how absolutely beautiful colours could be and I’m even more addicted to incorporating neon colours into my work. I definitely don’t consider myself much of an artist, lol, but I truly enjoy & sincerely appreciate all the artists who put out helpful videos on any type of social media. Thanks so much for all you do, I learn something new every time I watch your videos 👋😊

sorry, i'm genuinely crying right now. i was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder when we thought it was bipolar my entire life. because of this, art was a huge outlet. i found your channel when you were just celebrating one million, and you responded to one of my comments. to now see FIVE POINT FIVE MILLION? after finding this channel again after a year or two? its so overwhelming because youve deserved it from DAY ONE. gosh.

You're the first person I followed on Tiktok, even before I started my own content. I'm glad you're back! Please do more duet videos. I'll be honest, dueting you is intimidating, but I would like to try.

I bought a 6x9 watercolor sketchbook for plein air painting on Maui. I found to capture wide panoramic views I could use both sides of the paper. It worked well as a sketch journal. The only drawback was every painting had another on the back so I didnt want the art to be removed from the book and the texture was smoother on the backside.

Random Iconic Jazza line: "What you DON'T know is he's a really talented lover!"

3:50 actually, the hack to fix your artwork with hair spray does work at least when you use coal... I never tried it with graphit. But I fix all my coal drawings and sketches with it

You can make your own blending stumps by rolling paper at a very slight angle and taping in place. We used to lick our colored pencils to make the colors better. Hairspray like Final Net works best... the old style, heavier sprays.

With the first hack, if you use a softer pencil like a 2 or 4 B you can press very lightly and you won't end up with the indent on the paper from the outline. I used to use a graphite stick so it rubbed on a lot faster, then lightly smudged the whole thing with so it wasn't as powdery and less messy on the artwork. Plus it works with white chalk on black paper too.

Omg yes!!! Jazz saw my TikTok✨ I’m so exited that I can’t believe it xD Glad you like it✨

That's awesome

A lot of these tips I've taught my students. like the color pencil in the water you don't even have to soak it you can just dip it to blend and it's really cool. The blending sounds also can be called tortillions. I like to tell my students that I've made plenty of mistakes to teach you guys not to make so that you can find the new ones and figure out how to solve them. Another real good tip is to take photos of your artwork and flip them around in the edit mode and you can see plenty of mistakes that you need to correct with your anatomy.

I learned a new hack a few weeks ago and wish I had found out about it long ago. Use Murphy's oil soap to clean brushes. I had seven brushes that I thought were beyond saving but couldn't bear to throw them away. I watched an artist's channel and she is not only a painter but a teacher as well. She's the one who told me about Murphy's oil soap. It's gentle on brushes, won't harm them at all. Pour some of the liquid in a jar, put in the brushes and let them sit. It may take a day, several days or however long but this stuff works like magic. I soaked my stiff brushes overnight and couldn't believe it when I rinsed them off. The bristles were so soft and like new. I now swear by that stuff. I don't know if you guys have Murphy's in Australia but it's for cleaning wood floors. It's not harmful to the wood and it smells nice too. For years I had been cleaning my brushes with turpentine and mineral spirits. As you know, these chemicals are harmful and they stink. I still have a tank with turps in it but I use it very sparingly. Not to clean brushes but to add a bit to my paint when needed.

Yeah I use the hairspray thing constantly and it works for me!

I can’t be alone having no clue what a blending stump is

Lets just give him a hug and a moment of silence cuz for the rest of his life he was a professional artist he had every art tools accept for one a blending stump

Definitely going to have to try the gesso on watercolour paper. I bought some watercolour canvas last year and not happy with it so might have to try it with this first....

The way he screamed -'Hey it's Rae' 😍❤ Friendship goals ❤

You’ve never used blending stumps?! How have you never even heard of them?!

Don't tell me you've gone your whole like without these! 2:30 jazza you need it they're so nice!

So the trick with the hairspray is to make sure you let it completely dry, I leave mine to sit for a whole day and add a couple layers. I do a lot of chalk pastel drawings and I find hairspray very helpful, the brand also may effect the outcome. I use Aussie, it’s decently cheap and useful for artwork and my hair 🤣

Blending stumps are so awesome! Thats how you make mist and smoke as well...

The tinfoil hack is incredibly wasteful though...just take the few minutes and clean whatever your using 🙌🏽✨

I actually use hair spray in my sketchbook just to stop sketches and stuff from transferring over the pages-so i think it might just be the brand?? It's always worked for me so idk-

@@dinkletree3561 Doesnt ruin the art! All of my sketches have been 100% ok. If you're going to try it with water colour pencils or different mediums like that who i'd recommend doing a swatch page and then spraying it with a few layers to see if any dont react well to it. I did that and figured out that one of my pens did bleed a little when made wet, but aside from that everything else was oki.

one of the art styles i've seen incolves putting a stencil on a canvis then applying a texture putty/paste to make a 3d design before painting. i would be interested in seen jazza try this. using this method to make pine tree sillouttes then using alchohol ink to create an aurora borealis above would be a cool picture.

I used to use cheap hairspray to seal my pencil drawings but I would use a lot, the paper would be wet. After drying it wouldn't smudge. I haven't done pencil work or a lot of traditional work in a long time though. I love my citiq too much. I should really get back into watercolor painting

Man, this is the reason why I wish my parents would allow me to have Tik-tok. Some people in Tik-Tok's art community are really helpful, and plus I want to participate in stuff like this and be able to share it with Jazza

13:33 Jazza is tyler1 lite “aah help” 😂

Lol the dice creatures is a game I play with my ESL students, we use it to teach body parts and review numbers and colours. The kids love it, but obviously we simplify it and get them to draw a simple circle or something to make the body. I love seeing what they do!

I use cheap hairspray to seal in my charcoal drawings, it works great.
