I use to only draw to show people and didn't realize I was only drawing for compliments which was bad, so now I am drawing for myself.
Same. I should practise to just draw for myself
I do this too, sadly. Made me afraid to post or even show my work to other people bcs im scared they wouldnt like it
This is what I'm trying to develop for myself.
o o I am currently doing that, but I don't think it's a bad thing because it sets goals for me so I can improve and the people I show become shocked :)
Omg. This comment made me realise that I do that too... damn... very good point, thanks for making me see🙈😅
finally something actually helpful instead of someone just saying “well if you want to improve your art just practice”
Some videos just tell you to practice, but they don't say *how* to practice
Thanks! I’m so glad it helped. I tried to address that problem lol
@@_phong.huynh_ ءءييكشكسةسوظلن يقسى عليك ويبتعد عنك الا المكتفي بقلب ثاني خذها قاعده لا احد يترك الماء وهو عطشانكةتيسشظر
thats because thats how its done practice duh
@@reaverich7951 Ofc they want u to practice but there not explaining,how to "practice",that's all there saying.
Me : gets inspired to draw
Art supplies : Haha try finding us first!
A pen and scrap paper is really enough for a beginner. Don't cling to the supplys Just geht started with small exercises
Pretty sure everyone agrees with me:
Jessica's sketch book should be in a art museum!
Lol oh boy thanks!
agreed
@angeleta daley yes
Yip
Especially the instax she drew
Jess: Sometimes I doodle what I feel
*doodles fish*
Me: Ah yes, I feel fish. I am fish.
to be one with the fish 🙏

Cloudurious just go to the pond, then you’ll be with your family *Fish*
Gacha-Turquoise-Macaroon , Ah yes, but there is nobody like my kind. Mind joining me?
I smell someone about to get r/whooshed..

Zara Lee great summary!
Omg thank you! Thanks also for the tips. Your video is great and helpful ❤
Tysm very helpful
Hope u like it..czcams.com/video/Yrt2D33VGyA/video.html
@@artofjesskarp Like really, The first time I noticed that you replied on this comment I thought u would say:
Why do u want people not to watch the whole video
Someone told me that “you draw what you see” and that changes my perspective. Don’t push yourself too hard to be better, there’s always time for improvement❤️
This is what my art teacher tells us
It is Almighty Allah, the lord of all worlds, who inspires and teaches art to people.
@@motherlandmars5999 and inspiring mutah marriage, violence, and PDF files. 😂
If you are just starting a sketchbook, remember it doesn't have to perfect at all. You don't need to noticeably improve and you don't need a masterpiece on every page! Have fun, don't worry about the looks or perfection, and remember you don't need to be the best at art to draw or use it a sketchbook
Something helpful for if you do struggle with perfectionism is to have 2 sketchbooks: 1 for anything art, no matter if it's "good" or not. 2 for those "good" drawings, for when you give it your all in a piece! (I mean't to just add to the og comment, sorry)
It is Almighty Allah, the lord of all worlds, who inspires and teaches art to people.
I clicked on this just for fun and ended up with a lot of information. 👌🏾
awesome! hope you enjoyed!

Plzz Subscibe Like and Share😍
Oh yeah? I think I will attempt it. I want so much to master the human head. Both Male and female. When I am Sketching a man's face I always put facial hair, beards, mustaches, 5 o'clock shadow. .. to make it look like a Male.
Wish me luck. I am an amateur artist going on for 2 years in May.
This was so helpful! Thank you so much!❤
✌
Art communities are so supportive. I love these videos that basically stress that your sketchbook is for you and doesn't need to be full of masterpieces. That was always what kept me from drawing...but after watching a bunch of different art channels, it's so relaxing and something I use to kind of decompress after a long day
i just found your channel like 4 days ago and you’re already creeping up to my favorite art youtubers list
Omg same. 😇
Me too! such a brilliant artist!
Me too! It's inspiring for my own art channel :)
Sameee
Same 😎🤓
I’m learning how to draw again. I went to art school, but it was like they were steering me in a certain direction. I was taught that my own drawing style wasn’t good. Had a 3 year drawing break where I felt like all my creativity was gone. Videos like this really help and I’m drawing everyday again.
Same here for art school
I'm going through that, art school really kills your creativity and imagination
Yeah art school isn't exactly the best if you want to continue down a happy art path. I think it's more for people who want to learn art by the book to become critics/ sell classic art styles. Which doesn't fit everyone.
@@aylamiller5752 yes, that's why I'm confused whether should I continue art school or not, problem is there are too assignments assigned which is not very enjoyable because we are supposed to make it perfect. We are constantly compared and everyday is new things and can't really complete and understand the previous ones. What really is everyday is new and random which doesn't link and can be easily forgotten. Teachers are in constant hurry and doesn't give time to even understand and constantly change what we create telling 'this is not how you must do'
@@sometimesitslonely I get that it’s hard, it’s important for young people to start nurturing to their own needs, instead of someone elses, they need to find their own voice instead of listening to someone elses.
And constantly hearing negative feedback, puts you in a negative mood.
But don’t get discouraged, It’s been a year for me since my last comment, and in that year, I got a contract with a publisher, started my own company where I sell my art, and I have many people who want to work together!
It will all work out for you if you keep working hard for it! And embrace your uniqueness!
Idk why, but I’ve always wanted to draw things from movies. Specifically Disney. I thought I was weird. And I love how you said, that your sketchbook is a safe space. And I realize that it is. And now, I have no shame in drawing my movie pictures. In fact, I just recently drew a Tangled picture that was so much better than anything I’ve ever done. So thank you! ❤️
OK I just have to say this.
You're the most impressive artist I've ever seen. Your art is so versatile yet every single piece is absolutely breathtaking. I usually don't like using the word "perfect" to describe anything, especially not art, but for your work... it is sufficient.
It is Almighty Allah, the lord of all worlds, who inspires and teaches art to people.
@@motherlandmars5999 😂 no. Pagan god has no power
i’m so glad this popped up in my recommended, i literally JUST got a new sketchbook
♥️
OMG SAMMEEEE
Hey me too😂😂
Same!
Me too. This is a blessing.
Bloody hell those head sketches are such a masterpiece. I'm amazed
Excellent tips!! Love that it isn’t just ‘practice more’ but some really helpful ideas to get the creative juices flowing.
You are such an inspiration for all those art lovers out there who are struggling to get their art on track!!
I just loved it!
Jess: **draws realistic things**
Me: I’m a *cartoonist*
If you look at the two drawings she does at the beginning, they're very cute cartoons of herself! Your cartoons will get a lot more expressive and easier to do with these exercises, and soon you'll get to that stage where it flows easily instead of having to stop and figure out how things 'work'
I'm a cartoonist too! I've tried realistic a couple times....it didn't go very well, lmaoo
Same
@@jadeisla5421 same😂😖
Jade Isla I am exactly the opposite. The only thing I can draw is realistic human faces. And sometimes a wolf lmao I really don’t know why
Your 100 head challenge has motivated me to start my own challenge. I am always doing portraits but I do think I need to work on my typography and lettering perhaps I’ll do a challenge for that!
Good luck with that personal challenge! 💪I want to do that challenge, but the amount of time scares me, not sure if I could stay motivated if I do bunch of ugly heads😅 hahahaha I do better by setting goals..
@@carolinewithe787 The 100 heads one is super fun--you should do it! I started a few weeks ago (taking my time) as a complete beginner and I see so so so much progress already. I feel like a real artist now hah.
@@danpartain6873 someday :)
Well done! Never give up and keep going ❤
@@carolinewithe787 honestly the 100 heads challenge improves you so quickly and if your motivation is getting the heads out and not creating perfect work, which really it will have to be, even at 10 heads a day, you have to move fast, then you'll get through it.
Her sketchbook:
My sketchbook: smileys, smileys, smiley, stick figure, smileys
These tips were great! You’re such a great artist! I love the variety of mediums and styles you can draw. Your art is so mesmerizing! Thanks for the video, Jess.
I would totally do all of these but i always subconciously pressured myself in art so I ended up becoming a sad perfectionist (oops) and I have commitment issues and cant stick to anything I try to do... but i'll definitely try to at least do one of them. this was very helpful, so thank you!
are we the same?
Same
Try alt art
Same 😅😢
But I'm so glad for youtube and for such inspiration like jess to help calm my mind down in this crazy monotonous life that I often end up letting myself endure.
I just got introduced to brush pens recently too. So cool.
Cheers, guys! Thanks, Jess 😊
just keep drawing, you don't need to be perfect, no one is telling or forcing you to be. Just keep drawing and you will see improvement.
I swear this is the only video that actually helped- 💀
Most people just say stuff like “just keep practicing and filling up pages,” and I get that, but this video is a lot more helpful and inspiring. Thanks 👏😔
Awesome you’re very welcome enjoy!
Oh my god your drawing and artwork just blow me away…like I’ve been starting to draw for a couple months now doing like one drawing/sketch per day and this is just mind blowing to me how good this is
I used to draw more back in Art School, had a long break after because I shifted to Web and Graphic Design for many years, but I've decided to draw more, this video is definitely an inspiration, thank you Jess! :)
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR SUCH POSITIVE FEEDBACK! I hope you guys are staying creative and enjoying drawing in your sketchbook! :) Don't forget to like and subscribe to my channel not to miss videos every week! And let me know what other topics you would find helpful! -Jess

The last moment the Kitty's expression was so cute ❤️❤️🤗
Great tips thank you. I like the idea of turning objects into characters, doodling and the black n white and colour studies.
I found it very difficult to understand shading and highlighting in painting. Especially in human body paintings. Would you do a video talking about it, please?! 🙏🏼
"hear me out" -shows drawings of 100 ears ;) hahaha
"You will see"- shows drawings of eyes
Very helpful for all levels. You are a great teacher Jess!
Wow thank you for this video. Your work looks amazing!!!!!!!! I will definitely try your different advice.
Art makes me happy..and as I started digging deep to find more and more about it there's no end to it..
And I'll keep learning about something that makes me happy as long as I can..😀😊
I love the idea of brining characters to life I’ve been wanting to do a still life x imaginative entry! I will try this out! Thanks 😊

wow! thanks for the kind words! i am so glad!
Hey omg when I swipe your profile up and down its moving🥴
I follow a lot of artists and research about how to start an art business. During this pandemic, I have realized that enjoy the process. I still have the mindset of being successful instead of enjoying the practice and practicing/improving
Thank you 😊 for sharing the concept.
I didn't know that I needed of this video until I watch. Thank you so much. I loved all the tips.
Very nice sketch book! Really love all Your artwork!! I also love the "stay positive" graphics! Its superb!
You are so talented. I love your drawings so much.
You are truly inspiring!!! I love all of your work :) thank you so much for the tips in this video it was extremely helpful!

So good to hear! Thanks for watching enjoy!
This was amazing and extremely helpful
You are CRAZY TALENTED Jess …. Great videos !

Whenever I am stressed and tired, I watch your videos and that makes me calm and it inspires me to draw and paint
Amazing thank you!
U are explaining the real meaning of art which is super helpful ty for sharing😊😄amazing ideas!
Wow! You are an incredible artist! You have neatly explained the tips and had good examples! Thank you!
Now I’m starting a new visual journal!
Your cat made me subscribed 😆 (kidding aside) I just want to thank you for making me feel 'okay' and ready to take new challenges when it comes to art. Ever since I took up art class things turned up complicated, it made me constrict to do anything about art. That made me stop doing art (except in school works) but now that my course in college is related to art, I'm trying to gain my confidence back on the track.
I'm starting tomorrow to fill up my ooooolddd sketchbook. 😊
this video was in my suggestion page at the right time. I love the tips and ideas as well as your art. I can't wait to watch all your other videos (after I start drawing in my own sketchbook) 💕🥰
this is the video I have looking for all along!! thank you so much
Perfect timing
Can you make a video about how you were introduced to art and what did you study in college ?
This was really helpful. I haven't drawn in many years! Like, 10 years. My depression caused me to stop and then I never picked up the pen or paint brush. During this quarantine and anxious time, Ive been wanting to pick up drawing again and your examples really helped. Thank you.
Honestly same, and I still have little motivation sadly.
I'm very very glad that this video had popped in my suggestion and I clicked to watch it. This was so so inspiring and informative. Thanks for making this video. You're amazing 😍❤️
This was the most helpful video ever, you actually gave ideas to improve which is really uncommon.
So happy that I watched this.
Love that you are so diverse.
I am going to try all of these ❤️
Found your channl a couple months ago and i love your artistic style so much. ive binge watched all your videos ahah love your art
thank you so much!
Thank you so much, you are an amazing artist!
thanks!
You are AMAZING!! Thank you for being an inspiration! 💛
Best art video .Thank u so much for making this video😍😍
mw, depressed with major artblock watching like: :o
@@someone-oi6us Well, obviously not but thanks for asking
It’ll get better, I promise.
I feel u
saaamee 😭
Aah my mom found my super depressed, suicidal drawings (literally me wanting to end it all put together in drawings) a few weeks ago, she came in the living room with my sketchbook like:" What the heck is this???" And interviewed the fuck out of me. The feels are not to describe, it sucked so mf much :0
new favorite art CZcams channel? I think so.
wow! Thanks!
You are super talented! Thanks for the video, fabulous!
Thank you! I got alot out of all your video!! I couldn't decide what to draw. I thought I had to pick something and stay with that. Now I can try anything 😊
Recently started drawing again after almost a decade of artist's block (due to personal reasons), and while I can still draw rather well, I realized I'm lacking a LOT of practice.
The challenge of drawing something several times will help me put things into their proper position within the body/structure once more.
Thank you!
I love this! 😍 I wanted to finish mine for a sketchbook tour so now I am inspired! ❤️ Thanks for always inspiring me to create art videos!
great tutorial, and I loved the bus paintings in black and white and color.
You are a brilliant artist and a fabulous teacher.
summary
1) draw from life (like apples or your cat)- think about lighting and composition
2) create a character- take an object and turn it into a character
3) challenge yourself- draw 100 of anything
4) doodle away- just get your hand moving
5) reference study black/white and color- find a picture and paint it
Thanks. The cat is so cute😍
thank you! she is the sweetest
Keep up your work Jess! You are doing amazing!
This was actually really helpful, I really like how versatile your art is. And this definitely challenged me to try new things in my art. Thank you
Had a great art teacher called Ms. Karp, looks like I now have two great art teachers called Ms karp
