- Making the leap from color studies to full original artwork is often difficult. In this video I share some fun methods to bridging the gap to make your own original art easier.

Of the hundreds and hundreds of art teachers online there hasnt been a single one who actually explains in a applicable way how to utilise the skills learnt from studies and progress them into your own art. Wow this channel is young and with not many videos but honestly it is already the best art tutorial type channel on the internet already.
I don't ever comment on videos due to privacy concerns, but in this case I simply have to. Your videos are the most fascinating, accessible, and inspiring that I have seen regarding art and cinematography. For a while I have been struggling with the question, "OK, I get how artists draw from still life, but how do those concept artists create those ornate, complicated, and realistic drawings that don't exist in the real world?" I found my answer.
I am a wanna filmmaker and got back into cinematography after film school because it was always my weak point (strong points were sound, writing, and editing). Every time you release a video I instantly click to watch, and I want you to know that it's deeply appreciated when you take the time out of your day to make these videos. You also seem like a good person, and who doesn't like seeing the good guys win?
Wow, thank you so much SaganReagan! I have had this video idea in my head for a long time and am glad that i can finally get this topic out there. It's where the real fun begins! I wish you all the very best in your filmmaking journey! I too love doing filmmaking and have some topics I will eventually get to on this channel as well. Yay for creating! Thank you again for the kind words and for risking privacy to comment :) Much love!!
@@LightingMentor Yes I am going to use the method you mentioned about Pixar storyboarding the whole film with my own. Also, I used to think about lighting purely in terms of direction and softness, but now using color it's really fascinating because, as you have pointed out, it's so much more than just those two things.
You should never have commented because now i know where you live,Daniel
@@danklegosi6084this is unexpected but hilarious 😂
His videos are some of the most influential pieces of learning material I've encountered since I've started properly studying art. Absolutely incredible 😭 forever so thankful to him for sharing his knowledge!
Yeah dude this is just off the charts. Exactly the skill I'm just starting to work on. Sifting through all kinds of photos I've taken and working on making paintings from them, but trying to make them more interesting with more mood and drama than exact copies of the photos.
so inspiring, you make me believe I could actually do this
You absolutely can!!!
If I learned anything from "Piss Jesus" it's that I've been making fine "art" for years apparently...
There are a few things I can point to that fundamentally change my understanding of art and my process for making it. The first was learning to draw shadows rather than outlines, then how to mix colors and paint with values. This is definitely the next big thing for me. This video has absolutely stunned me, and it is a whole new way for me to look at art and an entirely new way of thinking about and practicing drawing and painting from reference. Thank you.
I’ve been an artist for years, and have struggled for some time with comprehending several of the concepts that you explain so simply and elegantly in your video series. I truly appreciate the care with which you craft these videos so that they offer the information and the straightforward path tho actually apply the idea in the viewers own work. I have watched countless videos by others who paint in front of a camera, but not one of them has stirred me to action in applying their methods in my creative life. You’ve absolutely broken through my creative lethargy and I’m painting with my new iPad and Apple Pencil with joy. I’m indebted. Thank you so much. You are truly inspiring.
I feel so blessed that I've found this channel, It cannot cover just how thankful I am but, Thankyou Sir! I will be there too in future videos.
Boggles my mind how other artists simply can never explain things like this. You don't give the specifics, the momentary realizations that artists must have on their own, but instead you give the method. The process and angle with which to tackle these skills and improve them. Others show but you truly teach. Incredible video, incredible channel
I love how passionate and yet calm you deliver this.
You are truly an amazing art teacher Jeremy. You have helped me A TON. I thank you so much for your channel!
I'm loving Coloring Book 2.0. I might actually...do that!
Give this guy the Nobel prize for art
I still love that chip monk!!!! Once again, you're sharing such valuable lessons with folks, and it's awesome to see the encouraging positive reception. You're by far the most inspiring and helpful artist I've ever worked with, I'm so happy seeing your amazing knowledge being shared and celebrated!!!
You're the best Lisa! I loved working with you and can't wait to collaborate again with you!
@@LightingMentorwhat film did you two work on together ? I’m curious now that you’ve mentioned it
@@Mankemista Lisa and I worked on the game Days Gone together, as well as on the TV show Westworld for HBO, and some other projects we can't quite talk about yet as they are not released :)
I absolutely love this. This is kind of what I do to create my illustrations but I am still learning the lighting, so finding artwork with the colour and lighting I am going for will really help me. I am excited to try it. Thank you for sharing.
I've been feeling a bit stuck this week, actually, the last few weeks after creating a very successful painting, it's like I'm scared that I can't do that again, (especially after a couple of failed paintings since.) Then, something I saw in the colors, the red tail light of your car at 5:53 sparked an idea in my head, it reminds me of the red sun vs the cool grays in Monet's "Impression, Sunrise" and now I feel inspired to try my next painting. Thank you! Great video, once again, Jeremy!
I recently started doing a similar thing , I had a piece in mind and I found the perfect inspiration for lighting , it wasn’t the same as my piece but the colors and value were just what I wanted so when I saw the lightest parts in my piece I painted it like my reference painted their lightest parts
We are always looking at things in their essential form to paint or draw and this is one way to learn all types of techniques to keep from stagnation. Thanks
Thank you for covering this topic! I really hate that whole promotion of artists "stealing" ugh, I refused to buy that book because of that stupid title. (Yes, I understand it was used for shock value = still gross.) Yes to your definition and examples of "extraction" that is so much better and much less negative and ugly.
I've done my best to create my own photo reference library, it's a really helpful resource for making your own art.
My whole life as an artist I've constantly striven to create images that are strong but unique. I don't watch "crafty videos" and most art instruction is pretty basic. Thank you for opening my eyes to another tool for the art-bag in my head. Very well done.
This makes so much sense! I’ve been having a hard time figuring out how to come up with ideas. Thank you so much!
I use to use hair accessories as inspiration for ideas, all of the different shaped pronged clips make for interesting critters
i think you are my teacher, you are actually teaching techniques and it works. i feel like the quality of your education is something i need to pay for
This is stellar practice!! Really like the extraction method. Refrence is critical, and I like how you present the information. Thank you! ❤❤❤
This is easily some of the finest art instruction I've seen. Thanks so much for what you do, Jeremy. To me, content like yours justifies the existence of this platform.
Excellent Video. I'm very impressed with the idea and the way it's explained. I've done this many times with my artwork without realizing. Now that I'm aware of it, I'm much more engaged in the planning of colors, their placement, and what impact I can achieve or improve. Thanks from a long-time painter.
I've never seen anyone openly talk about the same exact way I study/combine linework with color from separate pieces. Absolutely live the idea of several color studies from the same linework!
I'm not an artist - my medium is photography. But I gain so much from your videos. Keep it up!!
I stopped this video 1 min in to comment this: you’ve described exactly where I’m at in my art journey. I’m so happy to learn from such a good teacher as you and am excited for this next set of videos to get me to my next level!
Dude ur sample of 1 lineart with multiple palette/lighting was insane. Kinda like that haystacks classical painting guy.
Extraction and essence are very key. And main take away here is just not shy away from using references.
it turns out that I have been using this method for several years and every time I had a feeling of "stealing" someone else's art. I even had a feeling of guilt for it and I tried to remove this habit of learning in this way. After watching your video, I realized that I was doing everything right and if I had acted differently, then progress would not have happened so quickly!
Thank you very much for the video, you have calmed me down a lot!! It's true, that after watching life became calmer :D
You quickly turned into my favorite art channel. You get me unstuck in my art journey each time I watch one of your videos.
Loving this series already! This is something I’ve struggled with.
I find that many in the mainstream likes to use the word “steal” to represent the process of taking inspiration or using reference, maybe because it sounds cool/subversive/edgy, but it has given this learning process a negative connotation.
Of course if you claim someone else’s work and call it your own, especially when done to gain benefits like money/fame, that’s stealing. But for people who are just starting out, learning art while trying not to “steal” (meaning use reference/take inspiration) just hinders the process. It also discourages/demeans their effort because they feel they shouldn’t take credit because not every part of the artwork came from their own head, eventhough the reality is even with reference materials, it still takes time/effort/hardwork to create a piece of art, and credit should be given where credit’s due.
All of this is to say THANK YOU so much Jeremy for destigmatize this learning process and sharing valuable ways to develop art skills. Super inspired by the Coloring Book 2.0 method! Looking forward to your future lessons.
I am a watercolor artist that is working on my “craft” by perfecting my skills, using a photo reference and doing my best to replicate it. What you just explained so beautifully is how to take my craft and move it to “art”. I can still paint the same things I’ve painted before, but now paint them again looking through a different lens by applying a change in atmosphere, line, color, light, etc. by taking inspiration from other artists whose work I love. The way you shared this information was truly an ah-ha moment for me, and thank you for that. It may or may not be a new or original concept, but the delivery of the information was done in a way that finally made sense to me. As to AI, it is pulling from countless images of artwork stolen without the consent of the artists. I think that is very different from taking my own image and pulling inspiration to take my work in a different direction than direct reproduction. If my work looks anything like the piece I’m “extracting” from, I’m not doing it right. JMHO
Keep the killer content coming, King. Your channel is a real gem to be able to watch for free. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I really enjoyed that. I'm sure that having their art stolen is quite a problem for artists but to be inspired to using the same mood or shape is a really good way to create something new.
Invaluable advice once again, Jeremy! Thank you! These ideas and exercises are incredibly inspiring.
Your videos have more joy and curiosity about art and life than any other art channel I follow. Thank you! I loved this!
Hi Jeremy. I was looking forward to this video. I have been doing my colour studies. It has been hard but really fun. I'm going to keep it up! I really want to get good. Many thanks to you, you are helping us a lot. Cheers!
As soon as we got to the Chipmunk…my heart was stolen..I absolutely love it ! Thank you for this lesson. (I need that Chipmunk painting…just adorable.x)
Your work is amazing! One of my lecturers from years ago told us - use whatever sources are available to you to create the end result you want. It’s not cheating it’s being creative and as you said we reference what’s around us. It’s as you said, inspiration 👍🏻
This channel is a gold mine of knowledge and practical teaching. I LOVE it.
Thank you for putting this into words -- I've been doing this for years but didn't have a way to describe it that wasn't just "I need a photo to reference for my artwork, but I don't copy it directly --"
I LOVE saving a bunch of reference images whenever I see something that I think has wonderful colour or unique lighting - EXACTLY as you demonstrated. Sometimes they don't always work out, but in having tried them I better understand what makes them work in the first place and how better to apply that knowledge to my artwork in the future.
Your videos are truly phenomenal and I can't thank you enough for sharing your knowledge!! Thank you so much!!
All I can say is Thank You. Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge to inspire others, myself included!
I'm so grateful for you and the fact that I have the chance to hear people like you share their knowledge. Ahh. Your videos are amazing. Thank you so much.
Maestro!!! Thank YOU very much for share your knowledge with us, newbie artists.
Thank you so so so much!!! I‘ve learned an insane amount of things just by watching a few of your videos. This is pure gold! And your teaching style is so goooood
I really liked the concept of painting the same scene with different atmospheres from references. definitely going to try it!
Very helpful video thanks
I think is fun to do such work. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and talent.
Thank you Jeremy, love your videos so much ❤🙏 🥰
Thank you so much. I've been having a really rough month and learning new and inspiring ways of playing in art fills my heart ❤️ thank you again
your videos are top knotch, really inspiring me as i binge through them and am now determined more now than ever to really study light
Your videos are always so insightful and captivating. This deconstruction of an idea to the molecules ignites desire to create right away! Thank you :)
So glad you have committed to making more CZcams videos, really appreciate your channel. G’day from Tasmania 🎨🙌🏻
9:41 Gummy bears and Chip Monk is so funny. I am inspired by this playful exercise! You gave me an idea to seek out a passionate drawing group to have fun and learn!
This has shed a new light and perspective on one of my favorite books.
Thanks a lot for sharing!
Those lineart-to-painted art you did are mind-blowing!
I used a similar idea for a oil painting I just finished. I was copying a painting I admired of a Spanish street with it orange and ochre-colored houses. I also had a photograph my daughter in law took of my two grandsons walking arm in arm faced away from her. I introduced those figures into my street scene and made an entirely new painting that introduces a human element.
This was the EXACT thing I needed to see today. Thank you!!!
So excited to be learning from you!
Your videos are making me realize about so many things in art, and teaching me so much, that I just don’t know how to express my gratitude to you,
Thanks a lot, what you do is amazing
This video is a masterpiece.
Really awesome and super helpful!! I'm excited for this new series! Your paintings all look so magical.
Jeremy, I love this mentorship and you’re offering tremendous insight from your hard earned experience. Grateful for that! Yet I’m concerned about this one… my husband is an intellectual property attorney in the entertainment field and cautions me about using others’ works as the basis for my art. For 40 years he has fought both sides of copyright infringement lawsuits based on the concept of “derivative works”. The current copyright law leaves it up to the courts to determine whether or not a work contains a significant amount of the source so as to be a legal infringement. Thus if any portion of a rendering can be attributed to another’s work, the possibility exists that it could be challenged in a costly legal battle. The solution is to simply not use elements that can be tied to another artist’s original. A few of your examples show elements that are recognizable from the source. The Dr Seuss for instance. You’re clearly a professional with high level skills and commercial experience. What’s your view of this risk?
Hi Lisa! What a great comment. I am thinking I really want to make a whole video to respond to this, so hopefully I can find the time soon. It's a really important topic. I suppose this video was made to get people to realize that in order to learn we need to study the real world and other people's work. It's been done for centuries and what apprenticeships are all about, learning by replicating and studying from the masters. But study and original work are 2 different things. If you can at all tell that I took any elements from someone else's work as inspiration then I've not done it right. I encourage copying for study, and I encourage extraction for study too as it will train you to see light and color that is not in your own brain's internal library of reference. But when it comes to professional work or something you are claiming as your own original art I always want to make sure it is indeed original, but that does not mean I use no reference. It is very common practice for professionals, even in the biggest of studios, to use hundreds of images to study the essence of what they want to create. But if the end resulting image just looks like a knock off of some other piece of art, where you can clearly see the influence of the reference, then I think it's not been used properly. Does this make sense? I hope I can make a video to reply and show examples that will make this super clear. I really believe in original artwork and hate copyright infringement and people taking credit for something they themselves did not create. It's such a great topic to discuss in detail
This is such an enriching point of view and brings back the joy that most of use lose while focusing on the end result. Thank you, i feel truly inspired to continue my creative journey! ❤️
Oh my goodness I have found someone who understands what I’m missing.
So I have never used transfer paper or traced a design. I guess I’m what you call a natural.
It’s funny i rarely end up with the idea I have planned. It’s like my body goes into a trans and when I come out there’s this picture.
I am really working with water colors. Gouach and acrylics as well as markers and gel. I’m creating for me as always never anyone else.
Thank you and I will follow and use these ideas mentally. Truly love your manner of speaking… love ❤️ and light 💡
Your videos are fantastic. I'm not a digital artist but the general principles you describe can be generally applied. This last one was no exception. Thanks so much
I'm excited to see your studies in this method! These exercises might be just what I need to move forward from the art block I've found myself in.
That chipmunk-monk gave me a huge smile. I'm going to try these exercises. Thank you so much for these helpful videos!
Love your "chip monk"! All of these works are imaginative and creative. A great technique for learning, I'm sure. Thanks as always.
This is great. I need to try this process. Thanks!
EXTREMELY helpful information and ideas! Two thumbs up!!! ❤
This young man is so good. I get what he is saying. Didn't make it complicated .Wow thank you.
Such valuable information, you’re doing amazing work. Thanks so much!!
What a great idea! I can't wait to apply this idea!😀
This is excellent advice! I never liked the phrase steal like an artist for the reasons you mentioned. Extraction is a much better word.
This was really helpful ❤️......was truly worth my time. Thank you very much 🙏
Well done Jeremy. Love this
Thank you for amazing channel.
This is exactly what I needed! Thanks so much
Very helpful video, thank you! Love the chip monk piece and also the household item idea/challenge!
Wow I feel like my eyes have been opened !
How come this video doesn’t have more likes? It is amazing to watch, looking forward to the next ones!
Great inspiring content!Thank you!
Wow, thanks for this. I'm inspired today!
This is really great and simple to understand, thank you so much!
So cool. I’ve been watching your videos and I’m always inspired, but this is the one that made me finally take action to get back into drawing and painting
Yay! Keep creating my friend! It'll be worth it
Oh yes this is exciting. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Chip...monk....well if that's not the cutest thing I've seen today. :D
I just have to thank you for your videos. amzing
Heavily inspired and ready to extract some ideas and apply them on my art🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
Very inspiring ..... Brilliant
So excited with this new playlist Jeremy!
Thank God you’re your own boss now, so much realizations from a few minute video.
I’ve been doing this extraction thing with tea packagings and using them as a reference for my color palette.
Didn’t know there’s a whole new level to this. Looking forward for more.
Thanks heaps! I’m inspired to paint again :)
Wonderful insights!
This is such valuable information! I've used that technique in my music and I try to do so in my visual work. I will try harder now! Thanks!
10:05 - that's so funny! That's something I'd buy and hang on my wall. Well done!
This is very helpful! Thank you.
This is amazing!!!!✨✨✨
That was awesome, thank you!
Very inspiring. Thank you.
Thank you so much this is golden!
