Honestly, the hardest in drawing is... face shape, eyes, hands, feet, legs, clothing design, and poses. So yeah, pretty much anything.
I can't do face
Face shape is the hardest, on my opinion
Kathryn Lemon eyes are pretty easy every thing else is hard for me
Kathryn Lemon no Perspective is hard tbh all the things u Said is Easy but for me is perspective when I master that down I would making comics imaginable
I cannot get down the arm muscle groups goddamnit
*Innate Practice* :
Repeatedly doing a certain task will upgrade the skills related to that task
*Inspired Practice* :
Enthusiasm and energy drives you to develop yourself
*Developmental Practice* :
When you consciously choose to practice and learn
Exercises for that practice:
Exercise 1: _One-Picture-Repeat_ "Draw a single image many times, with an ever-decreasing time limit"
Exercise 2: _Life Drawing_ "Produce 2D representations of 3D objects or people"
Exercise 3: _Tutorial Marathon_ "Spend time dedicated to from creative tuition resources"
Exercise 4: _Deconstruction_ "Take complicated detailed images, and break them down visually into simple geometry"
Exercise 5: _Construction_ "Take simple representations of complicated things and 'fill in the blanks' "
*SECRET FOURTH PRACTICE* :
Get the 3 practice together by doing a project that:
i) Will make you practice your craft
ii) You like so it gives you enthusiasm
iii) Challenges you (learning new things)

**Literally drawing in my unmade bed**
ಠ◡ಠ
Right, I've got stuff everywhere . I'm in my bedroom next to a box of pens and pencils, looking at 3 painted canvasses leaned against my large light table that has oil paints, more drawing supplies, some clay, vellum, thermofax paper. If I walk out of my room though, my tattoo station is nice and clean as it should be, but then my metal shop is cluttered with all kinds of stuff, tattoo machine builds, my motorcycle build, knife building, agate stone carving. Then in the basement my woodshop is covered in wood shavings...
Mood. 😂🤣👌
@Normal Turtle I draw on my bed too
Normal Turtle sammeee
Normal Turtle i do the same lol
I can visualize exactly what I would like to draw in detail, as clearly as if it were right in front of me. But when it comes to actually drawing it... Yeah.
Me three,

When you want to draw but it's 2 AM, dark, and you have no paper or pencils.. or a life.
My life in a CZcams comment.
omg, perfect timing, I'm exactly in that situation right now
lol me too
It's bedtime, I'm dog tired and I'm itching to draw
True Story
I'm back 3 years later after watching this and improved alot. This comment probably will be forgotten.
Back a year later, so 4 years now, and so far I'm passing art with flying colours. That's about it. The quarantine is good for practice though.
good comment
BEEFY BOI I forgot it
I can't draw anything%2
Lol your old

When I started learning art, people kept telling me that I needed to have my own projects and I needed to draw for fun. But I honestly couldn’t think of anything that I wanted to do for fun. The result was that I did nothing but developmental practice for about six month. Then I finally started having ideas. When I began drawing, I was utterly shocked at how much my skill level had gone up. Art fundamentals FTW.
i can relateeeeee
That's motivating. Where did you learn the fundamentals? And how did you practice them?
what was an effective way for you to learn the fundamentals? I'm getting started and any help would be appreciated!
What did you study mostly?
Surly over 6 months he studied the fundamentals from many many different sorces of information
Funny thing, my depression and anxiety actually helps me draw at some points. Heck, my depression is the reason why I started to draw in the first place.
I was bullied a lot and I was always left alone as a child and that kept happening for many, many, many years, so I began to develop thoughts of self-harm and anxiety. To cope with this, I started to draw. It made me happy. It gave me a chance to express how I felt. Express things I couldn't describe in words.
Although I hate my mental illness with a passion, as it also stops me from drawing sometime. But I cannot lie and deny that my depression didn't have anything to do with my hobby that I want to have as a job today and that I love with all my heart.
+Interela1000 Jojo (Interela1000) thats funny, i draw for a similar reason, im not very good at making friends, and when i was in 3rd grade i swiched school, basicaly, all my new class hated me and i got very depressed. Then, in 5ft grade, guess what, i swiched school again, yeeei, and guess what, i couldnt make friends again. So now, here i am, doing my art. I actually plan to buy a digital tablet to start drawing manga there. sorry for the gamatical errors, im from portugal and im better speaking english than talking.
+Neko Saiyajin I started drawing because of the same reason. I used to get bullied a lot as well and I didn't had many friends. I was scared and I'm still scared to call someone a friend. When I did go to my second school, well, it was even more worse then my first. I was scared to go to school, I was scared that people were gonna blame me again. I wasn't good at sport. I got blamed every time that my team lost. And my teacher blamed me each lesson. She made me cry a lot. I was also a lot of day's sick. I couldn't follow class because of that. After all if I told my mom about it, then she wouldn't believe me.
What I wanted to say is, I draw since I could remember. It helped me a lot. I think that I wasn't here anymore if I didn't draw. It's the only thing I actually can do. The only moment that people didn't blame me.
And now...
I got a lot of friends. My class is also nice to me. I ain't scared to go to school either. I like it. I finally love my life.
reading this was like looking into a mirror.
My drawings so bad that anytime I look at someone else's art it gives me inspiration to be better
:)
Sam rich, do not listen to universal feeling. I care. I hope to see good art from you in the future. :) keep trying hard, and somehow you will get better~!
same
Retro Bago no ones drawing is bad all drawings looks good atleast youre doing something to be better never think your drawing is bad because that can get demotivotional
Retro Bago Thats good keep pushing through!!!
Summary:
*Just keep drawing. Never give up. No matter how horrible it turns out, every step u take, u’re getting closer to perfection* edit: yk what i meant
Thank you, that's very inspirational to all wannabe artists.
Yesss sis werrk

@@cchainsawhunter its 2020 no oen cars about grammer
@@dacrasherz4866 maybe you don't care about grammar, but you look dumb by misspelling easy words. One* cares* grammar* it's not that hard to spell correctly -_-
My biggest problems is motivation,being slightly depressed makes me extremelly dismotivated to draw,specially studying anatomy(which is really hard without knowing were to start).
People who watch hentai: heheh fight me *pushes up glasses*
I'm kind of depressed but it actually gives me motivation to draw more. Like when I feel down or smh I just draw and draw. But when I actually feel good (which is rare) I can't think of anything to draw or it's actually like I lost my ability to draw.
You don't need motivation, you need discipline. e.g. spending an hour a day just drawing. This is a perfect practice session that will get you motivated
I will master the secret, ultimate 4th form of practice!

When I watched this video I was like ;
Okey ... Lets practice on drawing human anatomy ! Why not !
2 MİNUTES LATER:
Are those creatures supposed to be human ._. ? :(.
That sounds like me SO MUCH! but im practiceing wolves not humans..
Me- let draw wolves! Cant be that hard, can it?

joe smith change your profile image....... pls
Your profile pic made me think there was a small bit of my hair on the screen. God damn son, I'm afraid I'm gonna go bald and this thing scared me to bits.
I thought there was an eyelash on my screen and I was so confused when I couldn’t get it off XD
Look what you did guys!!
No shit hes smart, he draws like a god, advertises so smartly in his videos and takes time to edit and make the video have lots of production value, on top of that he has paid tutorials on multiple websites on how to make money doing youtube, this guy is not a joke
Me: I wanna be a professional artist!
Jazz’s: practice practice practice.
Me: you know what, a job at Burger King doesn’t sound so bad.
Don't be scared. Start by sketching than drawing, practice sketching, don't try to draw finished projects or complicated objects. Go progressively
Don't focus on details yet, see the big projects. Time yourself even for 1min, 3 times a day. Focus on the big picture more than the details. For example: if you want to draw a dog, don't focus on the eyes, the mouth, the legs, the fair, etc. Instead, focus on the big picture, its overall form, break down into simple shapes(triangles, ovals, rectangles) practice that first and then get to the details. Go on your own pace
Ya want foot lettuce
I am an artist, and I work at Burger King 😂 FML
Well . . . On the "flip-side" ,
spending years working at a burger joint
may expose you to innate practice
sufficient to level you up to THE Burger KING . ;-)
The hardest part about drawing is maintaining interest in the art pieces that I'm creating. Halfway through, i will have a new concept or idea that seems more interesting thus i lack the excitement and quickly finish the drawing.
I have the same problem, except I usually lose motivation when I try to draw something that takes hours on and I end up never finishing it. It's frustrating, and I think I tend to overthink the flaws of my drawings too much. That, or I feel like I need better art tools to colour and outline better, as I don't exactly have that good art supplies and the shops that do have these things really inflate the prices :/
Just realised how nice Jazzas eyes are.
Agreed

17 minutes of this video was worth it! Thank you.
Edit: I am also bad at drawing woman and muscled men.
hey man don't worry about drawing women and men for now, It gets significantly easier once you learn to "measure" or draw more accurately. I think that's the best place to start and STILL the most useful fundamental skill many years later. look into bargues drawing or the atelier training curriculum. I have a few videos on my channel about that stuff, if it helps you out, good luck!
no cut paper Thank you!
Abdul J I just read this and thank you!
King Eccles The Dog, All Dogs Bow Down! Same thing.

This helped me a lot. I was always scared of drawing from the neck down though I really want to. And when I'm so inspired and want to draw, when I take out my sketchpad and pencil, I don't know what to draw or I draw the same thing which doesn't even look good. Everytime I draw, there's always this voice that's saying "You can't draw this", "you're not good enough" and I hate it a lot. I dislike watching drawing tutorials but this video didn't disappoint me. It made me realize my flaws (I'm always impatient and negative about my drawing skills) and inspired me to start over again and try to do better. Thank you!
hī i'm neutrogena Don't give up and you know those negative voices aren't real . Believe in yourself and until then you'll notice a huge improvement in your artworks . I'm only saying this because I'm an artist too . I mean artists are supposed to motivate each other right ? :) Cheer up !
Connie Tay Yes, yes! Thank you very much. After watching this video, the fear went away and I'm not afraid to hold the pencil anymore. And followed by your motivational comment, I feel much better. Thank you! I wish the best for you.
moodle ok before I give my motivational speech HYUNGWON THE LIVING MEME (OK I'm done) I started the same way! I never wanted to do anything but the face but one day I got tired of having drawings of floating heads so I got riskay and decided to draw a neck shoulders an attempted hands (key word attempted) practice definitely helps and I can assure you that it makes perfect
moodle Same it's like I draw but then I don't like it and then I end up questioning myself.
moodle DO IT! JUST DO IT!
Out of all the art videos I have seen, yours may be the catalyst that helps me regain my art passion. See I am perfectionist; most artist are. I published something that didn't do well and gave up after criticism of how good my art is not. I would get frustrated not being able draw things how I wanted and just did not want to do it anymore. After seeing this video I now understand more what happened and I now doing these activities you suggested with my personal twist to improve. Only time will tell but I not so critical on myself because I will judge the progression after multiple pictures later not right now. I am glad I finally found something on how to train yourself instead of the normal how to draw this and that tutorial. That's dude.
+antionestrife so glad to hear it mate, thank you and all the best with your art :)
Thanks. Still drawing.
antionestrife I cant take you serious with your profil pic 😂😂😂
I would never give up on art because you are here. Your channel gives me the eage to draw. Thanks for being here sincerely💖💖😁
I have all the styles u just talked about in my head, each pops up suddenly out of nowhere, so i start drawing, depending on my mood, im fine with it, as a one person team, no teacher, no former education, self taught, only help from Artists on CZcams such as you, sometimes it gets so frustrating, it makes me want to break my tablet in half, thank you for your videos, keep up the good work, ppl like me are counting on ppl like u
This is an intelligent, wise - let alone talented - young man with compacted density of information. His focus on emotional aspects is important and extremely helpful but what's most remarkable is that in a 20 minute lecture he condenses enough material to keep one going for weeks and weeks.
This is the first video I have ever seen of you, and I am amazed:)
thank you very much :)
PixelTuber first vid too
You know when you're drawing and you've erased and re-tried a dozen times and you're frustrated, and you just think, "I'm worked up and over-thinking, i need to calm down and be more loose", so you try that and just
"What part of my brain thought anything in the universe could possible look like that"
I'll follow your footstep jazza

Practice practice practice hahahaha
Wtf It's dio brando
innate practice! yes! practice your craft everyday! Everyone always tells me that I am talented or gifted. I tell them no. I am not gifted. No one gave me the ability to make art. I worked hard everyday drawing and painting to figure out how it works and I failed a 1000 times. Thanks man. Love your videos.
From personal experience I find that when you recreate an image with a decreasing time limit, after you get to 1 minute, go back to full time and you find that with your new relaxed state, the image will be a MASSIVE improvement on the first try.
Wait what can you explain it more
This makes no sense
@@latchkeyed8474 soo basically if you draw the same thing over and over in a time you'll get better in it like you drew a drawing on 3 hours then you drew the same thing agian it would probably look better and you'll be faster you can even make changes
@Mark Alvarez So for an example let's say you draw spongebob for 30 mins. The second time you draw him you only have 20 mins to do it which makes you speed up the process. The third time you'll only have 10 minutes to draw him again and by this point you'll be able to draw him much easier and quicker than before so that if you want to fix things or make changes you'll still have time to do that.
Thank you
That moment when your inspired to draw but dont have the motivation to
+Serpentine Saltern ikr! agreed
+Serpentine Saltern Or when you're motivated, but have no inspiration :/
Always me. Every. Single. Time.
tru lol, i think that's the hard part that you gotta make yourself draw and when you get better it gets easier.
or the other way round. Motivated but no inspiration.
I'm here binging all your videos again in 2020, who's with me!
No one, ok
I'm with you. Need to improve my drawing asap
This video so correctly describes the process of practice, inspiration and even depression, which just kills creativity and can discourage any form of artwork for years. This short video should be shown to every art student in high school or even earlier as it covers so many important points for improving as an artist. Probably the best 17 minutes of how to become a great artist on the internet! Thank You!
One thing annoying for photographers is when people ever comment on a good shot many always say " oh you must have a good camera" like completely forgetting that I and others have just practiced for years! XD
TheKiwiJobes I said this to a friend once and she got upset. I wasnt being mean or anything i was just too ignorant to realize that. haha.
I believe most people who say that have very little to no experience in photography and it is easier in their mind to assume it was the camera instead of actually putting some though into analyzing why the photo is good.
COOLnessGod But people don't say to a painter or digital artist 'Oh you must have a good set of brushes/you must have a an expensive wacom' ya get me?
TheKiwiJobes >Implying beeing a photograph is an artistic skill.

Thank you very much!!
i love listening to jazza talk it motivates me to push myself and when ever i feel down i look at his art and admire it
ive seen good art but in my books
Jazza is a G.O.A.T. artist
I’m doing tutorials marathon atm, back to fundamentals. I have learned so much and it will benefit everything I do later on.
you have to use references my friend even Da Vinci once said "you can't draw what you can't see" if you want to learn how to draw from imagination, draw from real life , draw other ppls drawings for study purposes. you should watch videos on perspective and check out master Kim Jung Gi lectures (the man basically mastered drawing from imagination and his biggest skill is perspective) drawing from imagination is really just draftsmanship , learn to break every person, object,animal down into 3D shapes, anatomy is very important to learn as well
Thanks.
Very good advice here! I was good at drawing but never as good as I am now after doing these things, and I still have much to improve.
Aaron Medrano _
Aaron Medrano that's true your imagination thinks that you can draw a picture that looks exactly what you think but when you draw it you get other inspiration and pop them in,or it looks nowhere the same as your thoughts
But you have to use your imagination every once in a while period

Thank you Jazza, Your videos help me a whole lot. I listen to you in the background while I'm drawing and it makes me feel like practicing and working. I didn't really feel inspired to work today but I did anyway because all I heard in my head was you telling me to be consistent.

welcome to my life brother
Watching Jazza has provided me so much Inspired Practice! I often find myself wanting to draw while watching his videos, so I keep my sketchbook on hand while watching
Man, your articulation, and frankly, your abundantly crystal clear explanation of these types of practices is absolutely insane! I'm an (mediocre) artist myself, and I could not imagine having explained this (or having heard explained) any more precisely. Admittedly, I recently found your channel and have been relentlessly "binge-watching" your videos for about a week now. I watch ALL SORTS of content on CZcams, and with full sincerity I have to say that your videos - The content, the quality, the execution, are the absolute best I have seen... Literally EVER. My hat goes off to you and your team. GREAT stuff!! Cheers from Florida 😁🍻
Copying someone's art is easy and at this point I can say that alot of things I can draw almost perfectly by copying step by step.. But my problem is that i've seen so much of ther people's art that.. I just can't be creative.. I can't make a thing that doesnt exist or ive never seen before.. I cant be.. creative.. i will always somewhy draw something and think that.. oh, this is actually unique.. noone has made this exact thing and I made something original.. I show it to my friend and said: Oh.. This is the drawing we,saw 8 months ago while at my aunt's place.. ..How even... How to be creative.
Take a moment in your day to draw anything in your mind. Hungry? Draw some food (and then eat some food) Tired? Practice drawing beds. Bored? Uh, draw. Just draw anything. Even if it's a rock. Now take that rock, and keep adding details until it looks like the best rock ever.
And one day, you will have great ideas. A good thing to do is write down your ideas, so you don't forget them later.
I think that being creative can heavily benefit from inspiration you get from others' creations. This doesn't necessarily mean "copying", but It's essentially taking ideas from other sources and using those as a reference to create your own. Do you like to watch certain movies? Play videogames? Do you feel attached to a certain character or setting in a book that you've read before? You may find it easier to create something when your interests can fuel your creative ability. Again, I'm not encouraging you or anyone else to directly rip off something that another person has created. If you can't start anywhere, using something you like as a foundation to create something entirely unique can be a good way to create something.
This is a method that works for me, personally. Other people have different opinions and I can respect that.
I don't think you have no creativity,I think you don't have much fantasy,but that is not the biggest problem! Maybe just take a look around your desk and draw something that is on it and add more things until you drew the whole desk. Also,you don't have to "copy" something, just take some inspiration and add your own things! For example, if you can draw a body, but you don't know what he/she/it could wear, you can take a look into some fashion magazines, if you draw a fictional character like a fairy or an elf, maybe look up "amazon warrior" or something!
I hope that this helped you :)

But when ever I do the first step it all seems so repetitive. then I get mad and think I'm not inproving any skills.
Then do one piece a week, and doodle every day. Every week look back at your previous drawings and feel proud at how far you've come. I have drawings from a year ago and I cringe whenever I look at them.
Try drawing it a bit differently, like possibly adding an extra feature or two, or possibly alternating the positioning/ angle of that certain object after every drawing. You will still be drawing the same object and it won't feel repetitive...it feels like this is cheating and not following the rules, but it's still practice. You will also notice the things like "oh, this hairstyle looks better positioned this way in this angle compared to the previous one" etc etc.
Insane Tuber Me too. I do it anyway. Mostly to spite myself. Like "Fuck you, you are GETTING BETTER AT ART YOU SON OF A BITCH"
stick with it 2 of the reasons it will feel like that is because of exponental growth and because alot of the internalizing happens while you sleep. good luck
TheD736 Lmao your in a abusive relationship
Thank you Jazz- this is something I'm going to start immediately...so many of these things we fail to practice .
You are the ULTIMATE artist! Thank you so much for always sharing your knowledge and skill with us!!
It's so weird... all this time, I've been practicing to improve my drawing skills but I just realized that I've been doing all three types of practice for over freakin' YEARS. And I'd never known about this channel until now!
I started drawing a comic (that actly didn't have any dialogues lol) when I was in 2nd Grade, and then made my own official comic book that is made up of folded papers that glued together in 4th grade. It was only something that I decided to do for myself, but since my classmates liked it, I made another comic book which is the continuation of the former one. Before I knew it, I was making a series of that story and I was improving this whole time, considering the fact that I forced myself to hone my art skills for the sake of my and my group's project on comic strips.
I'd never noticed that I was INNATELY improving my art skills by drawing comic strips multiple times over the years and had been continuing the story until the very end because of how I was INSPIRED to make fantasy stories. My art style has just gotten a lot better ever since I made the decision of DEVELOPING my skills on drawing by going back to the world of art and by putting my brain, heart and soul on important art lessons on the internet. I did a lot of ambitious challenges that I'd never thought I'd ever face in my whole life.
Now look where it got me... I'm an artsy writer dork who has a wishlist of art materials!
You just hit me in the feels my man... *the feels*
Try recreating a pencil image, but each time angle the pencil a different way. Sometimes sharp lines, sometimes fully on its side.

I love your channel. It's entertaining, it's fun, it's genuine and for that reason I will always be a subscriber and watch and love every video but this was hands down the most useful video I have ever watched. I have been hesitant to try drawing as I feel I have so little skill I wouldn't even know where to start to try to draw something that might look remotely like it is supposed to. The developmental practice part has given me some really concrete exercises that I can try, to just get my head around some really key concepts Thankyou!
I’ve been watching so many videos on different about art and concept art while I’ve been practicing and I was just feeling like whatever I do isn’t helping me , thank you so much this was the most helpful video for me at this point !!
Gold. This video was simply gold. Every aspect: very organized, informative, and substantial (meaning it had, well, meaning).
That face you made when you introduced the Ultimate Practice just earned you another subscriber.
+Matthew Lewis brilliant! The lunacy was worthwhile then ;) thanks for joining :D
+Draw with Jazza i subscribe to you.
Thank you for sharing the things you've learned. It's really helpful to those of us who haven't gone to art school, we can get some of the professional tips that help push our progress. :)
I’ve been suffering from some chronic health issues but this video itself inspired me greatly not to get so down on myself when I am not well enough to draw. Thank you so very much. Sincerely. I hope it makes you feel good and that it is always rewarding to you to post the videos you make and please keep making them! They are definitely appreciated :)
i hope you're doing better now :)

True
if i keep on drawing since I'm quite young (13) i might turn out like him ( a fantastic drawer)!
Hex Imprim Yes KEEP DRAWING
I believe in you!
When I was thirteen this was my way of thinking and until now (17) I really improved so much that I feel myself getting closer to my goal with every new artwork :3 (Still a long way to go but you know ♪ )
Same, I'm 13 and hope I get better if I keep drawing.. thanks for the words of encouragement
All I have to say is keep getting motivated I got good at drawing but then I stoped now Im 14 and Im starting back up again
12 BEAT THAT
I have a hard time drawing, I always want my art perfect and I always see other peoples art and I start getting mad that I can't draw as well as them, this video has helped me alot, thanks jazza 🤗
This helped me by teaching me how to take time to do one section at once.
This doesn’t always have to be used for drawing, it can be used for something like homework like doing one thing at a time, so thank you. 👍
Life drawing ahh life drawing.
In my classes, I draw random people, I kept on doing it even though I was bad, I didn't know why, I had always hated it and avoided it.
Now I can draw people, with a bit of time, but make them actually look like them. Keep on practicing even if you think your bad.
Same with me. Up to grade 6 I mainly just drew realistic animals because for me that was something I was comfortable and kinda good at, while I avoided drawing people and cartoons. I still love to draw animals but more recently I've been thinking, 'what the heck, I should get better with drawing more cartoony and practicing people. I think that was also inspired because of TV shows and other artists, but I'm happy that now I'm not too terrible at those styles and gradually improving from the help of tutorials and other artists.
i suck at drawing legs, hands, and feet
+Utonium Ph. D. I am not a pro artist, but what helped me very much are: 1. an anatomy book. Sounds boring, is boring, but it helps you very much to understand, how the bones and muscles and fat work in hands, feet, arms, legs, etc. There are special artistic anatomy books. 2. practice in different positions. Fastest way is to use your own body, you can either make photos from your own hands/feet and draw them, or other peoples photos (only for practice then, copyright) or for the beginning just sketches in front of a mirror.
I mostly came up with my own drawing, so I will tell you this, for hands, make them hold a thing to hide it, or even make the person wear a coat very big for them, like a child with an adult coat, it covers their hands with the sleeves, the bottom of it is touching the ground being dragged, and so you've nothing to worry about. Either do that, or do what the other person suggested.
+Utonium Ph. D. The answer is REALLY EASY.
Draw Legs, Hands and Feets, there are no easy shortcuts to becoming better, just draw them everyday.
+Utonium Ph. D. What you could try for hands is drawing a rectangular prism or a square and draw in lines to separate the fingers and then round out the tips and wrist for the hands, you could use this method for feet as well
+Utonium Ph. D. Guys, I think he was making a joke about powerpuff girls.
So you've been a great creator and you're just getting better. You're amazing
Wish I could like this a thousand times. This is an awesome systematic way of learning that I never thought of applying to art. I thought people just were born good at it
I inspired a girl to draw (she saw me drawing) and in a few weeks, she started bragging to everyone and I stopped because people felt I was copying her and I beat myself up for stopping
Acacia Grace Gee why didn't the girl say that she was copying you?
She wanted credit
Acacia Grace She's mean :(
i'll fight her
I think so too..
Burst of inspiration... just watch Draw with Jazza
Yay
Typically a burst of inspiration happens to me after I fap to some good hentai.
+FrontEndUtilityClerk Yeah, that'll do it...
LeBro ju gives me inspiration about some pretty good dynamic poses if you know what I mean
And then break your self esteem when you compare his and yours.
This is my cycle: wants to create something, watches hundreds of videos on it, minimal attempts to actually do said thing myself, watches more videos and then gets bored and moves onto something else
I love how Jazza gets the process that all artists go through.
You deserve 10 million subs
I agree
Yup
Agreed
I don't agree. He deserves even more!
Your so cool your videos really help
3:18 what was that?
Kabosu bruh 🤣
haha I saw that and was like let me go to the comments and check if someone caught that haha that's funny
We all have our dumb moments
I discovered your tutorials only yesterday, and I'm hooked. You seem to know your subject(s) very well, and your ability to speak clearly and intelligently is a real pleasure. I'm now a subscriber, and fully intend to watch and learn from each of your tutorials. Please keep up the good work.
Practice doesn't make perfect anymore.
Perfect practice makes perfect!! lol
Jazza, You are most definitely a personality the world needs. Thank you for rekindling my passion for art... A million thanks
I CANT DRAW HANDS :/
Then practice drawing hands! make small doodles of hands all the time and you´ll probably see improvement.
ok :)
i've come close in drawing them
Blood Fire Drake that's great! now keep practicing until you master them! >:3
GoViNi i shall
*draws out swords*
*with a half arsed drawn hand*
Ok... But how do I practice on practicing?
Bri the Free, you practice practicing by practicing practicing. You can practice practicing while you are practicing practicing as well.
Ya just have to put pencil to paper and whilst applying a slight bit of pressure, drag that pencil along until the line you've left resembles something you intended it to.
marathon tutorial is actually really helpful!! the reason why i get better at art is by doing the marathon tutorial, its really fun to see how you can develop in few hours , even hands and women who i struggled at in the past is actually developing with time , ofc not perfect but still practicing!
Looking for a video to get me going again and stumbled on this @Jazza. I been following you for about 3 or 4 years , here in 2020. crazy man
hi everyone.
a lot of people wish they could draw... And people keep trying to draw.
i believe that if you really like drawing you will be good at it.
i always said to people that if you have it in you, you will keep it going.
as for me, I think about drawing all the time.
so if you don't think of drawing all the time it probably isn't for you no more than sky diving.
in all honesty it really has to be your passion.
if you are true to drawing you will always find a pencil in your had.
for example : my brother in law plays the drums.
no matter where he is he's always taping his hands.
i guess he has a fadish with the drums???
this means that he is musically inclined and has a passion for it..
just like a person that's always working on cars.
well that person loves everything about cars.
As for me, I set myself up for drawing a long time ago and it became a set skill.
I always liked 3D and I liked drawing shapes.
so in the long run i found it useful when it came to my Job as a carpenter.
drawing is fun and creative and opens up new doors to your imagination.
it will give you ideas on where you're going and what you're trying to accomplish.
example : i like nature and I like to draw landscapes.
so i know what I want and I can put it on paper.
i like building houses and other structures so i can make my own blue prints as well.
i like wood carving so I can draw the 3D version of what I'm making.
remember that most skills have everything to do with setting up and drawing it as well.
this is why I love drawing.
we all use it for something.
penmanship is used everyday.
if you can write every letter in the alphabet YOU CAN DRAW.
if you can write your name in cursive YOU CAN DRAW.
If you can write every number YOU CAN DRAW.
don't fool yourself.
Thanks, you are the kind of person in the comments I like to read about, you give everyone who want to do something and motivates them to keep going thank you again matthew wahl
You obviously know nothing Matthew. Not having a strong passion doesn't mean it's not for you. It simply means you haven't found the right art style or you have other passions over it. Over time a passion grows and others fall, not having a current passion for something doesn't mean you should stop. Don't be stupid
SmokeyMcNuggett . obviously I've been drawing for 40 years and I'm comfortable and confident with it.
I've made pictures worth a lot of money.
I GUESS I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING AND I'M TRYING TO FOOL MYSELF.
I guess I don't have a passion for it. RIGHT.
my art work is impeccable and I put a lot of time and effort into it I'm proud of it.
I hope that other people feel the same way about themselves because if not.......
it wasn't their own passion to begin with and I don't mean that in a bad way.
all I know is this....
when I'm at the drawing board I'm not setting myself up for failure.
it doesn't mean that I won't make a mistake.
it means that I can fix it without worrying about the mistakes.
it's only paper anyway.
but everything I do ends up on paper before I commit myself to a mistake I can't erase.
I see a lot of people with good ideas but they can't put it on paper because they don't know how to draw.
this video was made to inspire people who are passionate with their art work and want to keep going with it.
I have my own style when it comes to drawing but I also pick up ideas from other people as well.
drawing is the least of my worries.
I'm more interested in finding a way to get rid of the graphite shin on paper.
my only solution is to go with charcoal for the dark shading and useing a brush for blending.
but charcoal doesn't blend well with some of the values in pencil.
8B 9B.
it does depend on the picture your drawing at hand.
Graphite shin is the mother of all nightmares to most artists.
almost unavoidable.
but I'm still looking for new ideas.
Christian Baxter thanks Christian.
I hope you enjoy drawing.
I had a vision.
and the vision was about someone drawing a picture for me. but in the end.... the person past away and the only thing that remains is my feelings and a picture left behind.
the picture was in great detail from line to line and into light and Dark silhouettes.
it left a big impact on me.
they say that a picture paint's a thousand words but it never explains the person who made it or the signature left at the bottom with kind words saying ... I love you.
But it's only a vision in my eyes and in my heart... It's the pencil in hand that does the rest.
a crippled man wishes he could walk. but a dieing man wishes to leave something behind for you to remember him by.

Here's my advice to all aspiring artist who want to improve their skills, I guarantee you these are very hard to do :
1. Stop playing video games - go practice your drawing.
2. Stop watching videos of people playing video games,movies, trailers, reaction, unboxing, reviews, fails,porn ,etc - go practice drawing.
3. Stop watching Speed drawings, drawing tutorials etc - go practice drawing.
4. Stop with your online chatting, liking, arguing, commenting, forums etc. - go practice drawing.
Once you can get pass these, you are on your way to becoming a great artist.
Some of those things give artist inspiration. How do you think the illustrations for those games were made?
Kevron A well ya know...Hard work. Dedication. Practice. Focus... things most people have difficulty doing because they're too distracted with stuff like ... ya know video games, youtube etc. ya know... WHAT I JUST SAID.
Amen tnx for reminding, bck to wrk!
PEOPLE'S QUESTIONS:
1) Can I eat during this process?
2) Can I go to the bathroom?
3) Can I sleep?
SOLUTION:
1) When your hungry, make a whole sketch and then eat, so your desperate to finish a good sketch, so that you can eat.
2) Hold it in, and tell yourself that you can only go if you make one more (productive) sketch.
3) Grab a Red Bull or try to get Insomnia.

c21dickcracker 0-0 Oh no! can I atleast have pie?
I am naturally somewhat good at art. I want to draw more often as a good hobby and as a time filler.
1 subs with no videos so have you got better
This was excellent advice. I've started drawing very recently and while I know that PRACTICE is the key, I didn't really go which direction to go. This was very helpful to have a general idea of how to go about it.
-"Practice doesen't makes perfect.Perfect practice makes perfect." Richard Turner
Thank you sooooo much for this video. This is really helpful for me. I'm just an amateur artist. I stoppped drawing over 5 years ago. I'm trying to go back to my art hobby again. I decided to start a youtube channel for me to keep practicing. Promised myself to do a drawing every week. I only have 3 upload for now. It is really inspiring when I earn subscribers and really nice comments.
I've been watching you for 1-2 years but never good at drawing then I started watching anime I decided to start trying so I just started drawing and in the last couple weeks I've made leaps and bounds in my ability to draw and remembered all of your recommendations like for line of action so thank you for teaching me techniques that I subconsciously remembered
I know this is a bit late, but thank you so much for uploading this. Lately, I've been too busy to fill in my sketchbooks daily and I felt that I became really rusty. This video helped me refresh 😊
Great video. You're very intelligent. Good speaker, good vocabulary, no pauses or anything. Great work.
aah the magic of editing. ha ha thank you.
Draw with Jazza I've been waiting for a video like this a long time
Draw with Jazza Having had the chance to work for the day on Emmerdale, it's amazing how many mistakes the actors make lol
Draw with Jazza lol no you're awesome either way.
Inspired practice: Half as long, twice as bright.
If you know what I'm referring to, we can be friends
Kid Draws You WIN
I come back to this video, when I am stuck. If there was such a vote, I'd vote it #1 on CZcams. Great job!
These advices couldn't have been said better. Thank you ❤️
