Dude. Dun fall into the watching art tube and making no art trap. Therein lies a dark and murky land haunted by the screams of broken dreams and wails of disillusioned ghosts. I was drawing on the train the other day and this little kid came up to me after peeking at my drawing for a few stops and asked me how I got ‘so good’ at drawing. I laughed, a tad embarrassed, and then showed him my pencil and paper and said you scribble on this using that and do that everyday for the rest of your life. The kid kind of stood there with his eyes wide open and the he smiled and I gave him my Blackwing and wished him luck. There is no such thing as talent in my opinion. There is only hunger to learn. Especially among professionals. A pro is really somebody who just keeps learning; who loves learning via creating and builds a life around that.

At 2021: drawing in photoshop 2021, i will

An interesting bit about what Trent said at the 21min mark: Don't "focus" on copying other people's styles. It fundamentally warps your understanding of how to build art. You'll still get better yes , but not like a complete package that fundamental basics will provide you. So yeah, don't compare yourself to other artists, I made that mistake and it grinded me for a few years. The art is incredibly subjective and the dividends can vary WILDLY. Learning to draw is for fun and personal curiosity. Learning to be an "artist" is a whole other beast that requires networking, an image to your name and lots of presence. So past the basics, the most important thing is to make a name for yourself.

You couldn't have released this video at a better time. I just recently decided to start learning how to paint in PS from scratch, (I typically always did line art traditionally and painting digitally). Need all the help I can get. Thanks Trent.

Sometimes when I'm not sure about deleting something or erase-painting, I make a mask and paint the parts I want to erase there. If I feel they are good I apply the mask, but if the experiment ended not like I expected, I delete the mask and all those changes disappear. It's a good method to prevent destroying your work by doing harsh editions on it or when you just want to experiment a bit with composition by hiding stuff from different layers.

Thank you soooooo much - Love how easy and simple you make things look, others seem to do a lot of explaining, and sometimes it's just more confusing. You are giving us the basic tools to just get started - ready set draw! Keep on truckin'! :)

My brain was screaming defiantly, when I noticed that you were drawing on the "background" layer. It took me such a long time to not forget to create a new layer *before* beginning to draw. My advice for beginners: Drawing on the background layer will create problems along the way. Unless you know what you're doing, *always create a new layer first* and draw on that! To this day it makes me angry that Photoshop doesn't immediately create a new layer for you, like many newer art programs do.

@@scorpodile9649 That's a fair point. Still, I wouldn't expect the automatic layer every time a document is opened, but exclusively when you're opening a new blank file. I may be wrong about this, but there seem to be rather few scenarios where you'd open a blank file to touch up a photo.

You can just unlock the layer and rearrange/select and bring to diff layer

This is helpful even for illustrators who're a little more experienced. I've been working with photoshop for years and still an idiot with keyboard shortcuts. Manually increasing brush sizes is time consuming and I've found it messes with my thought process. We're always learning, gotta stay humble and admit when we're not quite doing things right or efficiently. Thanks Trent, you've got yourself a new subscriber :)

Thank you for going step by step. I've been struggling to expand my mediums into digital and found it difficult. This tutorial was extremely helpful. Thank you again, for teaching and sharing your techniques.

I've really been delving into the photoshop program lately. I learned some new tricks here. I'm sure they will help out. Thanks for the video!

For the mixer brush, think of it like blending makeup, where you can paint highlights and shadows, then blend them into your midtones. I've found an useful configuration to be: Enable clean brush after each stroke, wet: 5%, load: 20%, mix: 33%, flow: 33%. Those settings, combined with a brush that emulates one of those big, round, floofy makeup brushes, or simply a soft default round brush, will get you some decent blending action without being too over-powering.

Honestly thank you so much for making this video! I’ve begun using photoshop from clip studio ahead of my concept art course and this helped me understand the interface so much!

Love you Trent! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, big respect man!

This kind of video is GREAT and this one has all the main initial pointers. Good job, man

Trent, thank you for sharing! I learned a couple of new shortcuts from this. Hope all is well!

This is excellent! I appreciate your lessons. I'm just starting out, so I was very excited to find your channel. Thanks again! Happy New Year!

I love the textures in the drawing that you show here

Man, six months ago I had a digital illustration fever... I had never done it before, but now I can't stop! I am loving your videos! I still don't know how to use all the PS tools, but learning is being a wonderful adventure! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, it's making my life so much easier! 🤩

I'm so glad you made this video. I'm starting at art school next month and photoshop is the main program that we'll be using and I hadn't the foggiest idea of how to draw in photoshop before watching

Thank u!!! This helped so much huhuhu it was so hard to sit through other tutorial vidss. This was fun and concisee! Thankss

this is so so helpful! i bought a drawing tablet on a whim (i usually do traditional art) and thought i'd take advantage of my student access to photoshop, and this explains the basics so well! thank you so much :)

these tutorials are really good since a lot of people dont even know where to start. Good content as always.

UGH this is so helpful thank you !!! I am about to start an internship with a game design studio next semester and I literally forgot how to use photoshop (my last photoshop class was 3 years ago) so this is so perfect !

Heck yeah bro, I literally got photoshop two weeks ago and this video is really helpful I think it would be dope if you did a sequel with more complex features from photoshop

“Now we’re cooking- Now we’re cooking with something here” I love this, I’m going to use this from now on. But this is a really helpful video! I like the way that you explain things. Photoshop seems complicated but you explain things in a way that simplifies that.

Thank you so much for this tutorial, Trent!

Its such a coincidence that one of my favorite art youtubers makes a photoshop tutorial the same month I got finally got photoshop :)

Thank you I learned a few short cuts in this video!

Awesome video, learnt alot when I started learning a while ago. Never got around to thanking you, you helped a lot

Wow so useful. Thank you for going through all the basics and not just jumping straight to drawing

This was extremely helpful. Thank you!

Great video! Thank you so much. Very useful to learn smth new and recall smth old as well😊

Amazing guide, well done this was a joy to watch.

Great introduction! Sir, your skills are exceptional! Thank you for sharing your passion.

thank you so much man, best tutorial on youtube hands down

Love the noob's guide!! Can't wait for more episodes!

Thank you so much! I previously drew 50/50 in Autodesk Sketchbook and Paint Tool Sai. I only really did colouring in Sai, because I dislike the sketching brushes there, but I preferred the colouring brushes over those in Sketchbook. I've managed to get Photoshop, because every time I see a profesisonal artist, they use it. I honestly think this is going to go far better than my last attempt, especially with this tutorial. For such a complicated program, the tutorial itself is appropriate for beginning artists who've decided to take the hard route. I love everything about it.

The man, the myth, the legend. Thanks for these videos. I just grabbed a new surface i7 and was looking to transition out of sketchbook but ps (was) daunting af

Thanks for your sharing these super helpful information, I think I need to learn more about layer in Photoshop, anyway, this video really helps me a lot in improving my digital drawing skills!!

AMAZINGGG!! thankyou very much!! it's really helping

I have some art school homework to do and this just helped me a ton

You're a lifesaver. Thank you so much!

appreciate you posting this video!

this is awesome thank you, hopefully one day i will be able to improve my photoshop drawing been stuck on that for years

GDay Trent...Cant thankyou enough for this video lesson. Just moved from pen and paper to digital art with a Wacom Cintiq 22 (awesome!!) but as a complete noob to photoshop I was genuinely struggling to make any headway. Very few tutorials actually go into the "nuts and bolts mechanics" of how to use the program to get results. Instant subscribe and like from me. Please keep up this sort of content.....cheers mate....👍

this is so perfect, thank you!

I really got to learn so much from your video tutorial, Brilliant artwork and so well made, very nice and big big like, keep them rolling in and have safe and wonderful day.

Super helpful tutorial, thank you!! :)

Ctrl+Backspace will fill the layer with the current background color. Alt+Backspace will fill the layer with the current foreground color.

Needed this!!! Thank u!!

Ill stick to mouse for now since thats all i have at the moment, this was helpful though

Wow. Just the video i was looking for

thank you so much 💕you save my life✨🪄

Thank you for making art content videos that are over 15 minutes long! There's a lot of art channels with short tutorial videos that are under 6-7 min long and they are worthless.

Thank you, i dont need to get Adobe Illustrator now, I was deciding what to use, its been a long time. Just getting back into art after a 20 year hiatus and I'm rusty!!

Amazing!!! Thank you 😊

Just recently started using PS and I found out that you could draw on it and I was amazed haha, I know how to draw traditionally but never digital, I like your tutorial, very relaxed, very chill and helpfull 👍🏻👍🏻

Haha. I’ve been using i for the dropper and switching back to b for brush. I didn’t realize that ALT is way more effective to bring the dropper up

what the hell. i didn't even know there was such cropping tool! everytime i did it before was manually change dimensions and just adjusting the image size! bless you for this simple relevation to me.

Damn! I'm watching again, and I am still learning stuff! Thank you, Sir!

this is amazing! i used to use adobe illustrator as i just started studying at university, but never got taught it properly and everyone would always say “why don’t you just use photoshop”. this is so helpful, thank you so much!

Thank you for your little pep talk during the time-lapse. I guess for some reason I thought that because I got the brushes then I could draw like you, but you are right, that isn't the case. I'll keep working on it though.

I love this guide

Despite knowing all this things, I still really enjoy this guide. I wish to had it few years ago, great job!

proud photoshop noob here, might not be for too long now though once i finish all these lessons, this is my first one of yours, and it helped a lot with interview/test i have tomorrow as i know how to start and quickly get to practice brushes and layers.

Thank you for this video!

Hey, this is really amazing video. Thank you!!! :)

Awesome lesson!

Cool tips mate!

Dude thank you for this I've used procreate for a couple years and clip studio for awhile but I have to learn PS so thank you for this

At 15:30ish - and theres a lot I learned myself but theres so many critical things I never knew. I can afford to go to art school... But I cannot afford the time. I fear I have wasted my talent by becoming a blue collared worker for the last two decades. At this point in time you have awakened me to a whole new world of hope. I cannot stop my day job (my retirement is the only thing I look forward to now). But with your help I'm on my way to enjoying what can say is a my one true passion in life. So... Thank you for this video.

Ok, you sold me on your tutorials. I'll check em out.

Converting from Clipstudio to Photoshop, you are my savior

Thank you so much for making this, I was just about to give up on photoshop being a viable drawing program.

This he helped me so much!!! Thank you!!! Other artists I watched just did a speed paint and didn't explain the tools only explained the process. I hope you make more vids like these in the future!😄

hello im a noob i saw this video it is amazing i swear i will keep it watching and practicing until your vidoes ends

One thing I like when I get on here and i see people teaching others art is when they say "MATERIAL". I love it!....If you are a noob take that tiny bit of advice with you....that one word alone can separate an amatur from a pro as far as their knowledge and experience. In game design school if you said anything other than material it was bad news LOL. Love the channel~!~!

This is excellent!

Been using photoshop for the past 10 years, but never to draw. Don't really like the "feeling" of it 😕 I use it just to give the last "touches". Paint Tool Sai is my choice, it simple and very responsive, and really never crashed on me. And the watercolor "magic" you can do it's very pleasant 🙃 Not fancy as Photoshop, but that's what really make it perfect to me. It's just like having a sheet of paper right in front of you + the art tools! Very traditional feeling! Thanks for sharing, and again, for the great video Trent! Cheers!

What is this JEWEL of tutorial and why am i seeing it just now!!! Thank you Thank you for such wonderful thorough tutorial on brushes that actually relate to painting and drawing on photoshop!!! I hate it when tutorial starts creating funky shapes for brushes - i mean, can i learn how to do more basic stuff that actually matter? Thank you again!!!!!

Since you gave so so many tips to my journey to becoming a better illustrator as a design professional I can finally give something back. DPI or PPI doesn’t matter in this case. It won’t change the sharpness or amount of pixels. At all. It just virtually says how many it has per inch. Try making two files both at 3000x1500. And make them 72ppi and 300ppi. It won’t change the total amount of pixels or sharpness :) Thanks for all the videos!
