imma use the time to practice some art! thanks for the inspiration, you're motivating me so much
Happy Holidays, Sam!! :D
READ TGCF
happy holidays to you too!!
As a self taught artist I’m actually baffled at how talented 12yr old Sam was
talented?! he said it himself - he's already had 7 years of hardcore practice at that point!
@@morka6360literally
@morka6360 Yeah, he is talented because he put so much work into his art and took time. That's what made him talented. So it doesn't matter
@@user-iq3jr3lo3j It DOES matter. Talent is the WRONG word for this. Talent is an innate ability to do something well. He may have been talented before, but practice is what made him SKILLED. Saying that an artist is talented instead of skill sort of implies that they didn't work hard to get to their level.
@@stephlala094well it’s just a compliment, not that deep
2008= Sam is "tiny baby"???
*Cries in 1968*
😭😭😭
Dont worry, ur still looking pretty young for ur age!
😂😂😂
HHAHA stop it Scott you don't look a day over 30!
@@samdoesartsSam I know you’re being nice but we all know you’re lying😭
gah DAMN YOU’RE OLD 😨
The technical skill you possessed at that young age baffles me-
It’s not even because of the whole “young prodigy” thing, but having patience and understanding of things like line weight, blending, shading, perspective, etc.
His perspective and shading knowledge blew me away! Those alien designs were sick! And the landscapes were grand.
I think he was a prodigy in how fast he learns
Geez, I thought this was gonna make me feel better about my art, not worse. Sam was a pro since day 1 😩
I knew today was going too well for me
He is asian
I am utterly surprised, bewildered, baffled, taken aback, astonished, stunned, and flabbergasted at the beauty of some of the sketches from Sam’s middle school years
Edit: Quite perplexed as well
ikr he was 13 and making that?
same
he was insaneeeee
Bro used his whole vocabulary to describe Sam's work that's how good he is
Fr my drawings from when i was 13 look like stick figurines
Sam at 12 years old: *creates masterpiece*
Me at 12 years old: "Sometimes I think, but then I forget"
me, being in high school, can not draw as good as Sam at age 10. 😭 😭 😭
Tengo 12 años y ahora quiero dibujar lo que Sam dibujaba a sus 10-12 años😭👍🏻. Me inspiré jjaja
The most interesting thing to me is that Sam's childhood drawings were extremely detailed. If a drawing is finished, it has highly refined details. On the contrary, new Sam's artwork is more focused on a whole picture so it's less refined.
the real talent is drawing for so long without getting bored and burned out.
Thats not a talent. If you wanna be motivated to make art you gotta take away dopamine from other sources. Stop watching youtube, tiktok, playing games. Make art your only way of getting dopamine
@@dailydoodle42That's not the best thing to do, you need to learn to enjoy art
@@mreazl6227 Yeah ofcourse but there are always gonna be distractions that give you more dopamine than art. If you make it your only source of dopamine you are gonna learn to enjoy art even more!
@@dailydoodle42 thank you
If you’re getting bored of art and never picking it up again it was just never your thing tbh. Personally I can’t get enough of drawing. Getting burned out comes to all us artists. Just cus you’re not seeing it from Sam does not mean he doesn’t get burned out.
It’s crazy how Sam told us not to compare ourselves to his drawings from his younger days and how you shouldn’t put yourself down, but everyone is putting themselves down by comparing themselves to him anyway.
lmao fr
Dude his drawings at 13yrs are better than my current ones. Where did we go wrong😂
@@kedargawande6404 like i said, i just don’t think we should compare ourselves to him or anybody for that matter. it doesn’t matter, and it only puts yourself down.
@@kedargawande6404i think he probably has only shown the ones that look good cause i refuse to believe a 13 yo is dropping such masterpieces on every sketchbook page 💀🙏
@@jammzpocket yeah, probably. Some artists have a sketchbook where they practice and then a different one when they're more confident in their ability to draw something
Art god 🫵 even at 10 your robot drawings were INSANE
*Your
@@user-cy4fd7mx5k tru thanks, I just fixed it
your
you actually fixed your grammar mistake lol 😅
i agree except (not to be a party pooper lol) careful what you label as God because there is only one and true living God and he is the one who gives out talents to us as gifts even tho sometimes we use those same gifts to dishonour him
it's insane how good Sam's art was and he was 11?!? pure talent
He literally says its not talent
Remember that a lot of us start our art journey later. Be it because we were discouraged by parents, teachers, or peers. Or we just didn't have time or motivation. Sam was really lucky that his guardians not only encouraged his art but also gave him the tools to be good at it. Be kind to yourself.
It's not just luck. He really is talented. I've also been drawing since kindergarden and my drawing were not nearly as good as his. And that's completely fine and normal, I'm simply not as talented as him.
@alisav8394 or maybe you've simply not drawn as much as him
@@alisav8394 idk, did you have 7 years of art fundamentals at the beginning or were you just doodling like a regular kindergartener
not meant as an insult, there's nothing wrong with doodling stuff at 8 years old, thats how most of us started, but its explicitly NOT what Sam was doing
the HUGE transition from a literal depiction of an alien warzone, to instagram girls. anything you draw inspires me
lol I agreeee!
his art had so much potential but at least he sticked to what he was passionate about
@@3m_tt759 💀
@@3m_tt759genuine question here how would u be passionate about instagram girlys? 😅
When I look at my art I be darn near having an heart attack
Real
Relatable
Same.
i see you
And it's recent arts
An observation: it appears lots of Sam’s early drawings were mechanical but that also means he had subconsciously learned to draw shapes well in his childhood, since robots are largely made of cylinders and different rectangles therefore giving him a foundation for organic figures later. I’m sure this helped him in his development of framing out a subject and transposing it with digital paint. Not to mention the plethora of resources available in a digital medium. Impressive work at that age though! Inspires me to pick art back up.
He literally said that he went through a chinese bootcamp 😭that were he learned how to draw
i was sitting there baffled as a self-taught artist and then he mentioned a tutor and suddenly everything made sense. Ive been drawing since i was five but never with anyone to push me to learn fundamentals so i was just drawing whatever i felt like. i only got serious about it in late middle school.
17:10
The map design was so beautiful that God himself didn't want us to see it yet
I thought it was my phone glitching😭😭😭
Yeah something is glitched here so imma just cut it out, it'll be in the art book though! 👹
@@hopelessromance441 Samee i thought it's my phone problem
Was repeating that part again and again
@@samdoesartsme, broke highschool junior self, might never see it 💀 let me get a job for summer and i hope i get it by the end of summer
Nooooo drawing maps are my thing and I couldn't see it :(
Sam's work at age eleven is much better than my current work 😂
Same man
True
Same
same here but lets not forget that that 11 year old already had 6 years of difficult art lessons. and we be here having a normal life wile most of ur probably only started around the age of 11. so really dont compare age and dont forget that that 11 year old sam already had a lot of experiance
@@jay38869true 😅, but we have to give it to Sam for being so dedicated and hardworking in his work, because we all know it isn't easy ❤
Idk like I’m actually just at a loss of words. I’ve been drawing since I was at least 7, pretty much whenever I had free time. I always drew strictly from imagination but from what I can remember I was never able to think or draw that level of detail. It’s truly shocking and almost confusing in a way, I just don’t understand how at such a young age you were able to conceptualize such detailed and clean ideas. It doesn’t discourage me or anything, it just genuinely intrigues me bc I don’t know why I wasn’t able to do the same
Talent is the secret Sauce .idk why people are in denial. Pretty depressing :/
@@StraightNuts-mq4qs It's not inherent talent, it's learned skill. Sam said he took art classes in China at the age of five, and then continued taking 3 hour classes when he came to Canada. He had artistic opportunities that a lot of people don't get until they're much older, and put in a *lot* of work to make the most of those opportunities
@@mia-saraking5479 my man, his drawings as a child look insane. is usain bolt not inherently talented? i bet on my life that you would never get to the level of usain bolt no matter the opportunites you would have along the way.not in a 1000 years .art is not different when it comes to talent. im not saying dont draw but dont be delusional and give people false hope
@@StraightNuts-mq4qs if ur bad at drawing, just say that lmao. artists dont come out of the womb with a pre-existing developed mental library. art takes years and years to perfect. again as the person above said, sam took art classes at a very young age and stayed consistent with his art studies. he would not be at the level he is today if it weren't for his fortunate upbringing, and you literally chose to ignore that. to claim art as a mere talent is blatant ignorancy. art takes countless hours of dedication and effort. i dont want your comment to unmotivate art babies who are struggling with their confidence just because you don't know how to study art. i just think you're not putting in the work you need to.
@kar1305 That's super f*cking insensitive and rude as hell to tell someone they are bad at drawing and basically calling them "lazy" (not putting in the work they need to) when you don't even know anything about them, and all because of how they feel or believe. If you don't agree with them then that's your opinion, but to tell them they think that way because they are bad at drawing and lazy? Despicable. Don't pretend you care about what other people are feeling when YOU are personally attacking and unmotivating someone else.
There is a talent aspect to literally EVERYTHING humans do. It's why some people will never be on the same level as someone else. It's why a group of people taking the same exact art classes and doing the same amount of studying will always have those shining stars that seem so much more advanced than everyone else. It's why some people read faster than others. It's why some people draw faster than others. It's why some people have better memorization than others so they study less than others. It's why some people seem smarter than others. It's why some people have super creative ideas constantly and others can't think of a single one. Some people play video games all day long for years and that doesn't mean they will be able to beat someone else who hardly plays video games in a competitive game. Some of those people will actually be REALLY bad at the games, despite how long they have played them so "practice" doesn't even equal "better". People have different brains attuned to different things. To say everyone is on the same level of understanding and advances the same is simply untrue. People can put in just as much work as Sam and take the same exact art classes he has and still be worlds behind him. Learning things quickly and being good at it fast is the TALENT aspect. The wiring of your brain.
Of course people can always work 200% harder or longer to get on the same level as someone else, but the fact they have to work that much harder and longer means they don't have as much natural talent for that thing as the people ahead of them that got there with less work. People will NEVER be on the same level as everyone else because we are not a hive mind with the same exact capabilities and understanding as everyone else.
If you sit a 100 children down in an art classroom for the first time who have never drawn before and all give them the same lesson and hand them the same reference picture to draw from, you think every single one of those kids are going to churn out identical artworks of the same skill level? No. Some of them will end up drawing a picture that looks identical to the reference. Those few are naturally talented. And if they continue with the art and practicing, they will advance faster than all the others because from the get-go they are already really good at replicating what they see. Getting better than they currently are is obviously the skill part. But starting out that good and being able to draw what they see, identifying the shapes in a reference and recreating them is a talent.
To say talent doesn't exist and people just aren't working as hard as other people is not only untrue but an insult to people that have worked their butt off and just aren't on the same level as other people who have had to put in LESS work.
Sams shading and shape language on mechanical objects as a kid was crazyyyyy
I came here to feel better about how slow my drawing progress was and see Sam have bad childhood art. And now I haven't left the bathroom for four hours, Linkin Park is playing on repeat, and I'm holding my knees in the shower so the world can't see me cry.
Also great art always amazing to see an artist's journey especially one you look up to!

Sam: I’m sorry about how bad these drawings are 😢
The drawings: A masterpiece 🤩
God damn you were better in middle school than I am now at 20 years old in my second year of art college. And you were drawing more than me. I’ll try not to be too disappointed in myself after finishing this video
(Edit: ok just got to the part where you explain why I shouldn’t be disappointed in myself cause I haven’t been studying art for that many years even though I’m 20. I felt personally called out lmfao. Still disappointed in myself for not drawing as much and as often as you though)
I now understand why some people say "The aliens built the pyramids" It's because seeing something so elegant, something so divine, something so precise, something so out of my skill set has left me in a constant state of denial.
My brain just stopped functioning while seeing those sketches. This has genuinely inspired me on so many different levels, You're an absolute master of your craft, Sam.
sam is that guy of age 14 whom we are jealous of due to amazing art skills
If he thinks those are embarrassing, I don’t want to see him look at my art 💀
Its funny that his sketchbooks are older than some viewers
It is so depressing watching this knowing that Sam was better than me(a 19yo) as a 13yo😕😕 the art that you create today does not surprise me now that I see the incredible talent and hard work that preceded it
Edit: 13:27, thank you for this Sam😅😂 makes me feel much better
I’d like to see Sam pick some of his unfinished work to complete for fun 😊
I actually did that reccently with my old unfinished drawings and its very fun to do
YES
Can we talk about how supportive Sam's mom has been. As some who also had a mom that encouraged our creative endeavors, it's been an amazing time and to have someone to push you sometimes is just such an opportunity to create something new.😊
I like how your journey is about the exact opposite as mine. I drew so many animals and characters growing up and never got the hang of mechanics and robotics
AIN'T NO WAY BRO WAS THIS CRACKED WHEN HE POPPED OUT??!?
These are so good?? Hello?? Sam??
My life is a lie.
Same always tells us that we won’t be amazing unless we practice. BUT LOOK AT HIS 10-11 YEAR OLD ART, THEY’RE AMAZING
SUGGESTION: You should redraw some of them now in your style. It would be cool to see your spin on what younger you did.
It's not about comparing but now it's about blaming myself for not taking up art earlier in life and exploring it 😭😭😭😭
Sam is just ready to display his embarazing art just to entertain us art babies😆
Crap i forgot to add the quotation marks 😭
But his art is actually good tho😂
He embarrassing me tbh because he just does better than me
@@Lol-zc1vd same😭
I didn’t think I could cringe at my old art because we all start somewhere. Well, I was proven wrong not so long ago
At the beginning of the video, I was flabbergasted, at how skilled you were at 12.
But then you said you were taking intense art lessons at a young age.
And as someone who relied on mostly myself and my older siblings, felt good about myself.
I personally drew more scenery and people than I did creatures or robots so seeing the amount of detail on those things was incredible!
I started realism for a bit at around 11 and 12 but then I got more interest in music.
I ended up coming back around to art and is still practicing and improving!
Sammy being an art god from age 8 seems accurate
14:02 sam’s a furry, confirmed?????
Gotta love Sam lore
These are literally amazing for a 10-17 year old (although its not that much of a surprise)
This guy could have been a modern Van Goh or something and yet he became an educational art CZcamsr with some of my favorite humor.
It's amazing how much of a difference supporting your child's creative dreams can make. I gave up for SO many years because schools hated that I'd "waste my time" writing or drawing instead of doing school work. I even had a math teacher rip up some of my writing in the middle of class and toss it in the bin. I wanted to get into animal sciences when I was in 3rd grade but I was told it's a hopeless, nonexistant direction and ultimately gave up on my love for research because I got restricted from reading science and especially from bringing those books out in class. I didn't start drawing until 7th grade but faced the same issues.
Now I'm a depressed adult who gave up on dreams and am always struggling to be creative. So please, support your children's creative and ambitious endeavors as much as you can and don't let the schools bully them out of it.
rooting for you bro, screw that old school and b a creative researcher all u want
All your drawings look amazing for their respective ages. My jaw DROPPED when i saw how good you were. Nice work man!
stop why is your art from age 10 better than my whole life's work 😭😭😭
Sam is a seasoned artist, he has literally been painting since he was born🙌.
P.S that tablet needs to be taken to a phone repairer we need to see your old digital arts🥺
Most common fault is a battery and it's easily replaceable, it would definitely be worth a try to bring all that art back to life again
thank you for showing all this to us! i know as artists we so often feel ashamed or embarrassed of our old work but imo it's something to be celebrated as it quite literally documents our journey through not only art but really our lives as a whole!
you've had such a unique art journey compared to most artists i've seen and it was so incredibly cool to see and hear about where you started and how far you've come. looking at your current work & your love for drawing human characters i never would have guessed that for a long time your comfort zone was solely mechanical things! i really loved seeing how your interests and priorities changed over the years (your watercolors are beautiful!) and knowing that you were trained from such a young age makes sooo much sense, it really shows!
so yeah this was super cool and i'm so happy you felt comfortable enough to share it with us! even if you dunked on some of your old drawings (the irresistible artist urge) your positive attitude throughout was refreshing and inspiring. banger video! 💖
Sam your skill at such young ages was insane!! especially the quality of shading!! your rendering has always been great it seems, not only that but your level of understanding of fundamentals was very very impressive, You always keep inspiring me and make me more and more hungry to learn and Improve to such heights!
I’m truly surprised, at 10-13, your art was so good! Thank you show showing us art babies ❤
0:09 stop trying to separate these two love birds
I love that Sam gave himself 10/10 for his early sketchbooks and generally rated himself highly. Sometimes all we see are the mistakes, so I found myself smiling proudly for Sam recognizing and acknowledging his hard earned skills. Way to go, Sam!
you don't embarrassed yourself. your art is the best no matter in what age.
Like i'm so so so surprised and amazed by his sketches, even from his 1st sketch book He made every smallest details of the sketches LIKE WOW and just look at me who just don't know how to draw sketches even at 17.... Hats off SAM..💫 You are probably great by birth✨
bro this whole time i was just thinking "well, im gonna give up on art now lmao" everything was literally so bewildering but then he goes on to talk about his learning experience and about practicing and then i'm like "oh so that's why i still suck, i got to put effort in gosh darn it" but all hail the art god Sam, it was truly so cool to see all this old art and development
this was really fun to watch! reminds me of my days getting lost in my sketchbooks during school lmao. i loooove seeing how technical and refined you slowly became without losing your creativity, it's awesome and inspiring
Wow! This is literally my favorite video that I've seen of your work ever. Even more than all of you instagram posts too actually! I had no idea that the range of art you can make is so diverse (highly complex robots, tools, vehicles, painting styles, scifi, armor, etc etc) and it was so COOL to see! And also though I drew well for my age when I was around 11-ish, what I was good at was so different from what you were and... well this was just so inspiring man! Thanks for sharing! And for the goofiness too lol.
this is insane. Sam creating amazing art when i was just one year old :') thanks for showing your absolute masterpieces and embarrassing yourself as well Sam 😌☝️
My gosh. Bro's better at drawing at 9 then i am now. (Applause) Good show, Sam. Good Show.👏
I am surprised you are only 25, thanks for sharing your journey and explaining how much work you get done to come at this point. I always say drawing is how much you practice but when I see works of great artists it got me rethink. Age really don't matter thanks for showing that. ❤
i love how kind you are to your past self. that's a skill i have been working on. im still very early in my art journey and trying to get into the rhythm of consistent practice and fun, along with paying attention to skills. thanks for sharing!
i cant believe sams first sketchbook era was my first year since birth era 🙀🙀🙀 i bet our periods are also synced for life 😍🥰🥰
GIRL WHAT
Jaw on the FLOOR
Was excited to be able to compare my current skills with Sam as a child, but this man literally started out better than I am now. The proportions, perspective and concepts of those robuds are really good for a 10 y/o
This demotivate and motivated me at the same time
His art now looks so generated! SO GOOD
Sam was already an AMAZING artist as a kid, I don’t even stand a chance 😫😭
Sam, Sam, Sam. I know you are super talented, I love your art, love your videos. And now seeing the "little you".... omg. you were incredible even at 12 yrs old. I hope you are very , very proud of yourself. I know you joke about how bad this or that is, no , no , no. Please acknowledge how truly awesome this work is. How very special to see the sketch of your grandfather, loved that so much, and the watercolors, beautiful!! I leave your videos feeling so inspired and for that I thank you. Merry Christmas, Sam.
The dark brotherhood brings back so much nostalgia 😭😭😭
As great as it was seeing your younger drawings, seeing your artistic growth... I found the best part was you talking about your childhood and your really cool grandpa. I loving hearing the origin stories. We all have a story worth telling. ❤
THE OLD ART ALREDY SO SLAYYY, LIKE SAM BFFR🙄🙄
I need to know where Sam got that necklace
i wish you could post photos in the comment section, cus i also dont use blenders when shading, only pressure of the pencil, but that portrait at 16:56 the shading is insane for only being in highschool. I didn't get a grip on shading like that till my 20s. you sir are a prodigy.
It’s really inspiring to see how your art improved over the years! ❤️
Sam want from drawing cool robot's to anime wifus 💀✨
3:33 the drawing on the left reminds me of that big rhino looking creature in the movie avatar
It's wonderful to see an artist with confidence in their own childhood skills! And yes, your art was and is amazing. Well done.
6:55 the rendering on that is absolutely gorgeous.
9:32
felt.
Dude I was expecting to see actual bad art 😭but it was nowhere in sight, he was just always good at detailing
This was so awesome to see. I love seeing the growth of an artist, because it tells a story. This was the first video I watched on your channel and this was so wholesome to see and experience. SUBBED!
Your middle school art is better than my current art holy hell
Sam is a true art god 🗿
sam just roasted his own artwork and i do the same 😂
Oml finally i always wanted to see Sam rating his old art...
It’s kinda wholesome that you find some of your older work impressive that’s kinda rare for an artist
His old art looks better than my drawings😂
1:16 DID YOU DRAW THOSE WHEN YOU WERE 10?????
It's always interesting to see other artists journey. 😊
I think your old art was really impressive. 👍🏼
I wasn't expecting to come across random unfinished drawings of Walter White 😂
we love walter white
at 17:17 we're all getting the glitches right? ...right?? 👀
Aside from all the practice and experience and etc, you were BORN to do this, Sam! Btw, love love love your style 🔥🔥🔥
You're so honest and inspiring!
WHAT
HOW DID YOU DRAW SO GOOD YOU WERE LIKE 11??
HOW
My art is so ugly
And Idk how to draw details😭
Edit: 12:41 💀
How did you know-
It’d be fun to see you finish some of the old drawings that you did or redraw some finished pieces. Especially the ones of the horses, they’re so cool!
your raw natural talent is both astounding and inspirational
Sam's drawings are awesome as hell!! Even in his middle school years. Awesome, love your work sam
Bravo!!! Even the early works are very interesting, the effort is visible!
So impressed by Sam's sketches and all the watercolor pieces, they all looked so cool! Watching Sam's videos are always entertaining, inspiring, encouraging and supportive, thank you so much Sam:D
Merry Christmas to you, your family and everyone watching this video 🎄✨🎁
I honestly like this video format more than his other videos, the editing is less saturated and makes the video easier to digest
This video is actually really inspiring to me despite the fact everyone is saying it made them feel bad about their art bc im still quite young and it makes me want to keep improving my art so I can draw like how Sam did at the age I am right now.
He should create (or recreate) his own world and make it a series
