    As someone whos been making art for 10+ years I've slowly been losing my passion for it in the last few years due to feeling discouraged and feeling like what I make isn't good enough or skilled enough for how long i've been doing it. Watching dish grow so much and seeing her learn and have fun with her art honestly brings back my passion for it and makes me want to go draw right now. it's so encouraging.

      mate, i dont know where you are on drawing skills, but, if you draw for a long time, just go a long time on the same piece , you'll see the difference, cause the time one ONE piece make all the diff, i draw all day quick sketches and allmost all of them look cranky for me , but, with my trained eye now, i know that's they all can go perfect if i just put the effort to transform my quick sketch idea into a 10h drawing that look like a master piece , ;)

    Hyperfixation really does improve art! I’ve been drawing Genshin art since I started playing nearly 2 years ago, and nothing has made me want to improve my art as much as that fandom. There’s so many talented artists there that I look up to and push me to keep trying.

      I like his "don't run from responsibilities" whenever he talks about drawing difficult parts. Actually, this is exactly what drives me to draw hands on my characters instead of hiding them. I just tell myself "don't run from responsibilities" and I force myself to draw them even if it's painful.

    As an old, *_old_* commercial artist, let me say that anyone who draws (for example) movie posters, uses not only photo reference, but *_projects_* same on the illo board for his/her painting. Even better, if they work digitally, they do exactly what you did: They trace, then render, the actors' image to create the final piece. This is not only faster but also more accurate, when capturing a likeness is vital.

    I think you finally understood the difference between drawing and painting. The blocking in the shapes and building is painting, you dont have to worry because it will come together in the end. The planning and line work is drawing, they are 2 different skills but most people lump them together without knowing it. I went through that process myself with oil painting. Once you get it, then you REALLY get it.

    Honestly, that advice is so real. I got so much better at drawing humans because I wanted to draw my favourite 2013 Minecraft CZcamsrs as their borderlands personas. Fanart is the best fuel for art because it just feels so good.

  • @NiaMarmosha
    @NiaMarmosha Před rokem +161

    as person who drew for more than 10 years i can agreed: go wild, go as you can and as you like. There's always be the "right way" but that way can be something you don't enjoy or just feel like it's not it. So trying different stuff, learning from others, trying to seek and pick stuff which fit to you and the way you want to draw and imagine stuff.
    Also obsession with something is true. I change fandoms after few years in between i obsessed with my own project and it always keeps me motivated and interested. Sometimes i return to something i enjoyed and felt like after years i can do something which i couldn't years ago and THAT spark interest.
    so, din your spark, follow it but don't afraid to picl another if you need

  • @ralsei1828
    @ralsei1828 Před rokem +46

    my decision to stop worrying about whether my art "counted as art" just because it was majorly fanart was a HUGE blessing to me art-wise. I had a pretty awful dry period when it came to art for a few months because of some rough things I was going through in life, and I just recently started getting into Sonic. Let me tell you - nothing has been more fulfilling and healing than letting that hyperfixation sweep me off of my feet and back into art. My art has been improving dramatically lately after plateauing for so long and I have genuine inspiration and motivation to do it. It's so encouraging that you're having a similar experience letting your interests influence and spur you on in art, and those pieces are just amazing!!

    • @zephyrsprout
      @zephyrsprout Před rokem +1

    those paintings are so good omg!! I loooove seeing your immediate improvement the second you cracked the code for yourself!
    I had a similar thing where I would always get hung up on lineart for YEARS until one day I was just like "heck this" and simply went from sketch > colours (instead of sketch > lines > colours) and it improved both my art, and my SPEED tenfold. So seeing you be able to crack that code fairly early on in your journey is such a blessing. I'm so stoked and excited to see how your art develops in the coming months, and years!!
    You go this, Dish!

I don't draw OMORI all the time anymore but I've improved a lot since then so I can say that yes, having an obsession with something can indeed help you improve your art LOL

  • @domonikistheguy
    @domonikistheguy Před rokem +15

    dish discovering the beauty of digital painting is so relatable.
    sketching is of course foundational, but being able too see the larger formations from just putting colors/shapes on the canvas is a better visual than trying to figure out the shape through sketching it.
    edit: i like to call this process carving. since you put down a shape n slowly erase away to get the proper shape.
    so far am loving this series!

  • @semsclassic1750
    @semsclassic1750 Před rokem +18

    I feel like the main takeaway from this is truly your line about removing barriers of entry. I've been dabbling in drawing since I was a pre-teen, and never managed to stick with it long enough to see real progress because I was obsessed with every line being right where it should be. I wanted my sketches to look clean from the very start, and if it didn't work out (which, as you can imagine, happened often) I would get super discouraged and stop drawing for days, weeks, even months. I tried the swatch method, I tried doing larger lines, everything I could to make my brain accept this process of sketching THEN refining, but it didn't work.
    Since last year, though, I started dabbling in vroid, and boy has it been an absolute blast. Since the main frame of the character is already there, I can focus on finding those clean lines bit by bit, breaking down the work in tiny little digestible pieces. Since I've been doing it way more frequently than when I used to simply draw, my drawing motions have become surer and my technique has improved, which has shot my confidence level high enough that I can now accept imperfect lines because I KNOW I can make them better later on. It seems like such an obvious thing, but it truly took me these many years to get it seared into my brain. I AM capable of drawing better. I AM capable of making better art.
    And most importantly, I feel like I'm now able to dabble into 2D again without crumbling under my insecurities.
    So thank you for showing us your process and thank you for being vulnerable with us dish. I can't wait to see the shapes you art journey will take, and know I'll be along for the ride while shaping my own ! :)

    ive been obsessively doodling the same cast of about ten characters for several months now and i can absolutely confirm it improves your art. lyra has never looked better the baggy clothes have even forcibly taught me how to do wrinkly fabric. nelwrens stupid bandages and self-destructive behaviour has made me completely remaster how i draw blood. i studied tooth anatomy to draw claw snarling like the feral little goblin she is. life is great when youre hyperfixating on your ocs

  • @StarStoneWolf
    @StarStoneWolf Před rokem +7

    Hyberhyperfixations improving art quickly is one of the most truest things.
    I have always been drawing since I was a little girl. But the moment when my art suddenly started to improve quickly was when I was 12 and watched this anime called "Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan"
    Omg, there hasn't been a sketchbook I've owned past that day that didn't have Nura fanart inside. I even filled sketchbooks and files on my computer with drawings from that series. I also made like 10 ocs too.
    One of my best drawings that I felt the most proud of was Nura fanart.
    I'm still obsessed, but the fire has flickered down a little bit. It has been like over a decade since the manga ended...
    But then recently I heard news that there's gonna be 4 new chapters released in April this year.
    And so, after a whole day spent fangirl screaming, I've been back at it again, drawing an obsessive amount of Nura stuff...

    Hi miss dish!! I wanted to give you tips that always help me to keep me drawing. I've been drawing for more than 12+ years, prwctically since I was a kid, and one of the phrases I've learnt is "variety is the spice of life" and it totally applies to drawing. My tip is to enter pinterest quite often. It may not sound like a huge thing, but it really helps to keep you stay artsy, discovering new concepts and different drawing syles and technics makes you want to draw every single one of them! It helps me a lot since I'm veey experimental and I can never stick to one thing. Also, another tip for maybe new things like creating characters or try different painting/drawing technics you havent tried before: be always experimental and try risks, even tho your scared to failure, its something i sadly learnt too late since I started drawing. So excited for you getting into drawing again! ❤

    and regarding art block- it can be a pain and if you come across it again, don’t worry it will pass! don’t stress yourself when it does! just take some time and naturally come back when you feel inspired to draw again, that’s the best way i’ve found to work around it, rather then pushing through it and burning out.

    I'm actually sooo happy with how you were able to crack the unspoken code of hyperfixation to your art subject AHAHAHAHA. I think every artist actually goes towards this type of learning method, me included. I started drawing by being so hyper fixated with Pokemon and drawn them a lot as a kid. As I grew up, learning different techniques, and trying out different mediums is nice, but to have something in art to be fixated on is like training your brain to dissect the subject and relying on your muscle memory and creativity to place that fixation on the canvas (layer on digital haha).
    Currently, being super into anime, genshin and environmental art it really expanded how I create my illustrations as well. Keep on drawing the things you love Dish! Always rooting for you and other fellow artists out there!

    This is so true! Obsession over jojo and genshin motivated me to draw and is tbh the only reason i've gotten decent at art. It is such a motivator to keep drawing things you love and look over that improvement. ALSO OMG THE LAST DRAWING LOOKS SO STUNNING GREAT JOB!!!

    Im so happy for you!! The Kylo Ren piece was really amazing!! This video just dawned on me even more how Hyperfixating on a fandom really improves your art.. FAST.. like there's this thing in my head that's like "I love this thing so much, I MUST draw it in this and that" and before I knew I'm drawing lots and lots of it, even created an original character for them to interact with the world and the characters that I really love, and before I knew it my art was improving rapidly and im getting to collaborate with my favorite artists in the same fandom that I never knew I would before.... And it all happened in less than a year

    Love this video. I’ve been trying to get better at drawing. I’ve been struggling with just drawing from imagination vs doing what I want, which is to draw what I’m hyper fixated on. I feel you I spent a big part of my teens and early twenties (and honestly still now) trying to keep my hyper fixations at bay but I’m slowly starting to learn to use them to get things done instead of fighting against them.

  • @murimuri6529
    @murimuri6529 Před rokem

    I don't think I've ever resonated so much with anything else ever than this video! I've been following almost the same process to encourage myself to create more frequently. Although, there still is quite a bit of fear there which hinders consistency but I'm trying not to bash myself for it. I'll keep coming back to this video not just to remember what I want to work towards but more so to mirror the kindness that you so patiently show to yourself. I'm getting misty-eyed just being grateful that you created this video. Thank you, dish.

    this was honestly such a nice and inspiring watch. ive been struggling with other things (mainly language as im studying abroad), and like it may not be the same thing, but youre giving me hope i didnt have! plus this was so comforting and nice to have in the background as i did such language's homework.

  • @musicalemjay
    @musicalemjay Před rokem

    Oh Ms Dish, this is so beautiful to see! The way you approach this technique reminds me a lot of a friend who's currently in a program learning oil painting. It's a whole separate skill from line-art and it really seems to have clicked in your brain in some fundamental way. Which is so exciting! I hope you have fun continuing to explore and experiment 💜

    This video came onto my FYP after having a bit of a similar thing happening. I recently found my love for a long-dormant special interest. And I too, needed to get it out of my system and draw it. Silly thumbnail doodles in my sketchbook, writing the ideas down before I was capable of drawing them the way I wanted too. Attempted to draw his face on paper but really struggled, which is why I also proceeded to trace the actors face. I considered sharing these traced pieces of artwork but only because I was so happy with the shading I did, despite using the reference. I can't wait to continue down this path, and it's nice to have this video as a reminder that things are okay and progress is made! Also the advice with the little monster in shading absolutely perfect :D

  • @ivontody4248
    @ivontody4248 Před rokem

    hyperfixation really helps because u have this passion that kicks u with energy to make things and personally for me learning color palettes and stuff really helped. like, when u have good sketch and you really like it you can easily ruin it with wrong colors. ofc it isn't the problem when you have reference, but still. and daaaammn that drawing with gif reference is really good!!
    i'm so proud that you are finding your way in art and that you didn't burn out completely, still having that passion in you. i would love to see your further journey as an artist! good luck and keep it up because you're doing super great❤

  • @stinkygato5313
    @stinkygato5313 Před rokem +7

    Miss dish! If you want to get into the habit of being consistent. You could try having a traditional sketchbook! It doesn’t always have to be drawings! With a sketchbook you can also put in things you find inspiring or things you find interesting! It’s a great way to have materials in your hands and play around with them. It also works as a type of discipline whereas creating something and not erasing over and over until you get it perfect. Also as someone who has been in and out of creating things and trying new mediums, I suggest you try out as many mediums as you can! It will certainly help your creative process. I also recommend getting and finding art books! They contain a lot of useful tips and they contain the structures and process of some of the art. OH I also forgot to mention that many lovely people here on CZcams have something called a “sketchbook tour” they are very helpful and it helps you get an insight on how other people fill their books! Thats all for now, I hope this is of some use to you.

    Ive been an artist since I was an itty bitty 6th grader, thats about 9 years or so. And this obsession method, where you use your passion as a drive for art really works. It’s how most of my art i’ve made has gotten better/progressed; So I’m so glad you’re finding the fun in drawing some of your favorite media. 💙
