I would add another point that really works for me 11) FINISH YOUR ART PIECES: don't abandon your projects or work forever on a single one, give them some form of closure, and be consistent, finish your current project before starting another one. If you feel you have a lot of ideas, tackle them one by one, if you are working on a project and you think you have the best idea ever, just make a quick sketch and notes, then return and finish your current project. This forces you to go through all stages of the process. Think about music, if you learn only the intros of songs or the solos you're missing everything else, and play a complete song is as satisfying as finishing an art piece.
you all probably dont care at all but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me
@@jauxro if you can see it about how they marketed their products, not how many numbers of like to they got, it would be excellent. I know a few people who get overburdened by the numbers of like and decided to give up, because they felt they can't reach that :(
10:09 oof this part kind of hurts, in the past 2 years i've been drawing fanart for my followers bc i'm afraid i'll lose them, and that kind of led me to a really bad anxiety and eventually made me hate my own art. currently, since my passion to draw is coming back, i'm trying to find confidence to post my art online again
Did you start learning art to be enslaved by the requests of other people? You probably didnt. Draw what makes you happy, what you crave the most, because that will fuel your passion for drawing and in consecuence make you a better artist. Even the best artists, who do regular commisions and have drawing as their job, they all have some separate time to draw what they like, to draw something that they love.
yeah in art school the emphasis was childrens cartoons, so I learned how to draw 3.5 head proportions when all I wanted to do was young adult ultra violence fanatsy and sci fi. After graduation I spent like 3 years trying to pass myself off as a childrens animator, but recruiters always saw right through that facade, lol. Im drawing my own comics now, not really sure if art will ever be a career, but fortunately I have information tech skills to make $ with.
@@yourlocale-girl9550 I'm not active on Instagram but i have a twitter, it's @ milkydeath if you're interested or like tumblr i guess, I'm not active socially there but i post art sometimes it's @ thirstywaffles
Also something i struggled with in the past was when i saw artists my age making better art then me and me thinking i am not good enough Everyone starts art at a different age and its different for everyone the progress If you practiced everyday and didn't get much improvement dont be discouraged and try to point out what you dont like and go from there
I'm just on the lowest part of confidence. My art is not bad at all.... but i just don't feel like anything is good so I spend weeks without doing anything :( I'm frustrated but this video helped
I learned that Instead of telling myself that I'll never be as good as a certain artist, I need to start telling myself that someday, I'll be as just as good as that certain artist.
The way he draws the rought draft to this art piece is just incredible. I do need to draw everyday. Instead of doing doing something digital everday I'm gonna start drawing in a small sketchbook when I don't want to work on something big.
The putting yourself in a competition like mindset does kinda help you preform at your best. I find that when I'm Doing art for someone else the quality is much higher then when I'm just doing it for myself, my reward is the smile and thanks I get when I hand them the work.
Last year I started on the academic bachelor of Illustration and so far, it's been the most frustrating year of my life. If only they told us what's in this video, it has been so useful to me... Thank you so much!
I kinda slowed down drawing the last few months. I maybe did one illustration a week, if I was lucky (it mostly was just sketchy stuff in the end). I feel really stuck and like im not improving at all. Thanks to this video I think i can get back into the grind and finally improve a little. Thank you~
One thing I recently learned and started to use maybe a week or so ago that I wish I knew earlier: If you feel like you can’t draw every single day, which is understandable, have a paper/sketchbook where you draw at least one thing every day. I like to draw just a simple face, maybe at some angle, but just something. It doesn’t even have to be anything specific: maybe just some doodle, weird pattern, it’s up to you! This helps me keep up the motivation to draw
Hi Marc, I just wanna say thank you for uploading this video as I am currently someone who just graduated from art school, jobless, and struggling to get my technique right and creativity on check...This is very motivational and I hope to see more of these videos in the future
indeed it is a golden tip, especially the one about " if your last year art sucks compared to what you can do now, you are doing fantastic" that really gave me a confidence boost, my skills over time in 1 year basically skyrocketed a bit as i did a leap towards the better by using just 2 arts for referance that learnt me about the importance of curves and stuff, referance really helps, thank you marc, you are awsome
A tip I've found helps is to also look and follow artists whose work is not really your cup of tea, because you look at it more objectively rather than because you like the aesthetic and I think having that balance is important and you'll learn a lot even from art you don't necessarily enjoy. ☺️
I've been learning to draw during this social distancing and quarantine and drawing every day has been a struggle. I definitely needed to watch this video and now I feel like I should keep going. Thanks for the upload!
This was such an inspiring video. I've been trying to pick up 3D modelling for a while now. I've done a few beginner's courses, as well as made a few simple objects based on references, but, like you said, I find myself getting discouraged by learning new things that open the floodgates to even more things I still need to learn. I haven't opened blender in a few months now because I was getting so discouraged by the massive gap between where I wanted to be, and where I am. Your comments about having the right mindset, self-awareness, and keeping expectations in check are exactly what I needed to hear. I'm going to open blender again tomorrow with a fresh mindset. Thank you, really.
It might be part of point 5 but what really helped me out was watching the techniques of other artists. Especially when drawing digital. Your tutorials also helped a bunch.
Thank you, Mr. Brunet. I'm quite thankful that I came across this video as I was trying to find that spark to help reignite my creative drive. It was your comment about burnout and art not being fun was the driving moment that made me realize where I was in my art. As it is with the quarantines and social distancing, I made the decision to reinvest back into my art again and this video brought a refreshing breath of life again to my longest love, art. Best wishes and I look forward to gleaning more insight from your videos.
I massively improved at the beginning few years, but now improving is at a grind. I'm trying to start up again after being burnt out. I definitely feel like I'm at that pit of the Kruger effect, where I feel overwhelmed. I do art for fun so I feel like need to relax a little bit, and just enjoy it.
Haha i loved the final words! And the whole video is quite possibly the answer to every striving digital artist out there! its all down to their capacity to comprehend and follow your advice, this should be a sticky, on every single art forum online!
At 5:49 same, i also get motivated looking at someone’s art that’s really really good, it gets me in the mood of “wow I really should start practicing to get into this level faster” What discourages me is when i see another bad art bc it kinda gives of fear like if i don’t practice already, that’s how bad I’m gonna get and that just sucks..
I hope i could achieve your level of skill as in you're able to lineart straight away without rough sketches, how strong it is your imagination is in mind. I'm so grateful to stumble upon your channel, thanks for sharing your thoughts and insights.
Another one is to learn the terms and definitions of the fundamentals and elements of art. If you have a hard time understanding and breaking down how artist created their piece. You're going to have a even harder time trying to recreate or even copy. So learn the basics and create a mindset of constant growth and learning. Because whatever stagnates dies so keep moving and keep working.
Tnaks man, really good points. Actually i feel improvement 2 weeks ago, when people (like u said) start to reposting me and ny arts :) Now i trying not to burn out.
I stopped drawing for like 3 years and came back better than I was before because I began observing everything around me more consciously during that time.
Great video, tons of amazing info.. but I can't help but smile at the end, not for the cut-off.. but because of the ffx outro music. It makes me want to go back and play it again, again..
Thanks for introducing me to the Dunning Kruger chart 😂😂 it was funny. I actually have no idea how to gage my “experience” either… how do you know when you reach a professional level? People always say they like my art, but that’s because they’re being kind.
My metalwork teacher once said that practice is not enough, you need to practice PROPERLY to get somewhere doing something over and over again won't help improve
Currently, I have been doing the six fanart challenge and to be honest, it was really hard. But I feel like I'm learning a lot because I'm drawing something that I'm not familiar with and that is totally out of my comfort zone. I didn't even realize I'm drawing the same thing over and over again which is the main reason I'm not improving much. Anyway, love ur video man!
0:04 that 'Mark' watermark got me confused I thought it was literally on your forehead 😂 Great tips! I especially agree on the reference/learning from better artists Recently I started lurking around pros on artstation and having a look at their processes (if available) and saving their works to learn from. While I didn't improve a lot skill wise, I definitely did mentally. I'm no longer intimidated by many things. Also seeing them struggle sometimes and change things mid-work helped me understand that this is part of the art process and nothing to feel bad about
Dunning -Kruger effect was like a slap to the face. I thought my figure drawing was good until I joined a class that made us work on dynamic poses with limited time. Another point in the video I loved was talking about the professional artists. I unfollowed a ton of artists who made beautiful art but it was not in the field I wanted to go into. You're awesome for this video.
I am not in this business I am just watching because it is interesting and the drawing is interesting. I do want to point out that at point 3 you make it seem like mindset is mostly dependent on upbringing and that if you didn't get that from your upbringing it is pretty much game over, that is how your words come across. While I agree that a lot of our personality is a result of our upbringing. I can't stand behind the notion that it remains fixed, especially not something as malleable as mindset or identity. Yes, some things do remain fixed like IQ but that is mostly genetic. However, things like identity and mindset are just clumps of memory creating your paradigm of the world and are highly malleable with the right techniques. This is a whole domain of study. I have changed my mindset and identity numerous times throughout my life, I wasn't born wealthy or in an ambitious family yet I managed to deliberately change my mindset, now I own a profitable eCommerce company and I am big into self-development. Changing your mindset and identity is the lowest hanging fruit for success and manageable by most people with a normal functioning brain.
I don’t know... maybe give it another listen? All I said is what you start with is not the same, but the good news is that you can change your mindset with practice. That’s what’s interesting about it, and the only reason I brought it up as a way to quickly improve 🙂
hey man, thanks for the good videos, you motivated me to start doing caracter art, i was already pretty proficient at vector art, but caracter art was my first passion and what got me into drawing as a kid, got myself a drawing tablet and i will give it a shot, keep it up, your vids are very instructive and you answered a lot of question i had on how and where to start! love from canada
When i see a skilled artist that i like i think " i wish i could draw like that. Im going to incorporate one aspect of their art into my work to make it better" idk if it right but thats what i do
"Oh hey it's you again" - Marc to me but first time seeing a video of his after YT Algorithm recommended the video. "Me looking around surprised since It's the first time on the channel;" - Me feeling like the character from Skyrim when he wakes up. Nice video, now to see if Marc has entire tutorials, not speed-up ones since I'm a beginner on Adobe Photoshop with drawing (really hard to do it with a mouse but I can only wait till I get some money for a tablet, damn you Covid 19).
The first 2 seconds of the video whenever I open Chrome with this tab saved until I finally watch it "Oh hey, its you again" I swear I will watch it just funny to think he's judging me whenever I boot up my PC/Chrome to this video auto playing.
sometimes i will draw for an hour everyday for two weeks straight but i always end up stoping for long periods of time but the interest to draw never goes away. for this reason i never seem to get better but im okay with being a mediocre artist besides its not like i want build a career out of so whatever. the most important part is having fun right?
Thanks for this video. God damn did I need it. I am guilty of many things said in this video (eg. not using reference, not practicing enough etc.) These are some very useful tips. I think if I stick to them and actually try, I'll see improvement over time. Thanks :)
To be honest, back to my teenage years, I was so harsh on myself, like I would just get so frustrated at myself for not having a result that I was expecting in my head, so I would just cry and rip the paper and call myself useless. It was just a big mess for me to find the right way to improve myself, unfortunately, back then the internet was not that open than now, so it was kinda hard to find anything that would help me. My parents weren't really encouraging me or never say their point of view, what I would always get was "Mmm"/"Cool". My grandmother was so picky and was forcing me to be the next Leonardo Da Vinci fuck sake. And well, my older sister once said about my drawing I worked really hard on that "it's just a piece of paper", I remember getting very heartbroken and I just stopped drawing, even though it was just a sentence, it just ruined me. I don't think I fully abandoned drawing back then, I would still doodle something in my school notebook. Right now I'm actually thanking myself for finally accepting any mistake or I would look at my old drawings with a smile on my face, because the results I have now are because of these old drawings, I don't really say "my old drawings suck" because they helped me somehow, so I still appreciate them. I really feel more comfortable after finally figuring out my own style, my own vision. Something unexplainable happened to me that now I never feel jealous about someone's art or else, I instead just observe them, I don't really care what people think of my art, as long as they don't insult me or else. Of course, it makes me happy when people actually love my drawings and think that I actually know what I'm doing. The last one year I don't know what happened but I improved drastically and I didn't really do much or maybe I just didn't notice, but now I have almost no difficulty at drawing. Everything just improved out of nowhere. It's crazy. Maybe my brain just realized something lol P.S. I love the video and I'll try my best! Thank you!
I would add another point that really works for me
11) FINISH YOUR ART PIECES: don't abandon your projects or work forever on a single one, give them some form of closure, and be consistent, finish your current project before starting another one. If you feel you have a lot of ideas, tackle them one by one, if you are working on a project and you think you have the best idea ever, just make a quick sketch and notes, then return and finish your current project.

Think about music, if you learn only the intros of songs or the solos you're missing everything else, and play a complete song is as satisfying as finishing an art piece.
I’m impatient and incapable of this impossible task
thats hard BUT IM GONNA SUCCEED 😤😤😤😤

"learn from talent, not from fame" gotcha!

@@jauxro Yup. Personnaly, it's totally the inverse of what I search with art.

Also something i struggled with in the past was when i saw artists my age making better art then me and me thinking i am not good enough
Everyone starts art at a different age and its different for everyone the progress
If you practiced everyday and didn't get much improvement dont be discouraged and try to point out what you dont like and go from there
Me: “Can’t properly draw female body”
Also me: “Finds a lot of references”
Ha. Me too. then people get all judgy in school when you have all these half naked people printed out and crammed in your sketchbook. xD
I wanted to drew some undead fella a while back.
Not gonna lie, it felt rather unpleasant to search the internet for starved undernourished people...

Just starve yourself so you don’t have to search
So glad that you're uploading frequently now! Can't wait for the timeplapse video of that painting. Looks cool as hell already!
I'm just on the lowest part of confidence. My art is not bad at all.... but i just don't feel like anything is good so I spend weeks without doing anything :( I'm frustrated but this video helped
It took me a while to learn that just because you draw something you consider bad, doesn’t mean you’re a bad artist.
"The best way to learn is to learn how to unlearn".
That's something that one of my professors told me and you also mentioned it!
I learned that Instead of telling myself that I'll never be as good as a certain artist, I need to start telling myself that someday, I'll be as just as good as that certain artist.
if you want to get better than your friends
me: ok
and your teachers
me: alright
and pets
me: the what?

Probably the hardest part for me is the mindset... But I'll try to improve it
That one point about getting discouraged when you see great artist's work is beyond my understanding. I get so hyped when I see people better than me.
I massively improved at the beginning few years, but now improving is at a grind. I'm trying to start up again after being burnt out. I definitely feel like I'm at that pit of the Kruger effect, where I feel overwhelmed. I do art for fun so I feel like need to relax a little bit, and just enjoy it.

"Me looking around surprised since It's the first time on the channel;" - Me feeling like the character from Skyrim when he wakes up.
Nice video, now to see if Marc has entire tutorials, not speed-up ones since I'm a beginner on Adobe Photoshop with drawing (really hard to do it with a mouse but I can only wait till I get some money for a tablet, damn you Covid 19).
Great video Mark! You are the best!
Can you make a howto on how you record your tutorials? What program, mic etc.
The first 2 seconds of the video whenever I open Chrome with this tab saved until I finally watch it
"Oh hey, its you again"
I swear I will watch it just funny to think he's judging me whenever I boot up my PC/Chrome to this video auto playing.
the thing i need during this lockdown
0:09 Thanks to your tips I did actually get better at art than my Dog! You're a true live saver
1. use the liquify tool/brush to level up your raw drawing and finetune those curves and proportions , which your brain cannot see yet ....
Thank you so much for these tips! Really excited to work hard and improve!
sometimes i will draw for an hour everyday for two weeks straight but i always end up stoping for long periods of time but the interest to draw never goes away. for this reason i never seem to get better but im okay with being a mediocre artist besides its not like i want build a career out of so whatever. the most important part is having fun right?
Thanks for this video. God damn did I need it. I am guilty of many things said in this video (eg. not using reference, not practicing enough etc.) These are some very useful tips. I think if I stick to them and actually try, I'll see improvement over time. Thanks :)
I’ve been drawing so much from reference that now it’s hard not to... I’m not sure what’s next.
Thank you so much!!! I’ll definitely use these tips!💖
Sticking to it in the begnining is the really hard thing for me. but man i have realized that drawing is my future job or i will live in torment.
Said "Oh hey, its you again" in the beginning of the video, me and my friend were like we don't know you? And she said ""he's hitting on us" 😂
Awesome job. Thank u for your dedication
To be honest, back to my teenage years, I was so harsh on myself, like I would just get so frustrated at myself for not having a result that I was expecting in my head, so I would just cry and rip the paper and call myself useless. It was just a big mess for me to find the right way to improve myself, unfortunately, back then the internet was not that open than now, so it was kinda hard to find anything that would help me. My parents weren't really encouraging me or never say their point of view, what I would always get was "Mmm"/"Cool". My grandmother was so picky and was forcing me to be the next Leonardo Da Vinci fuck sake. And well, my older sister once said about my drawing I worked really hard on that "it's just a piece of paper", I remember getting very heartbroken and I just stopped drawing, even though it was just a sentence, it just ruined me. I don't think I fully abandoned drawing back then, I would still doodle something in my school notebook.
Right now I'm actually thanking myself for finally accepting any mistake or I would look at my old drawings with a smile on my face, because the results I have now are because of these old drawings, I don't really say "my old drawings suck" because they helped me somehow, so I still appreciate them. I really feel more comfortable after finally figuring out my own style, my own vision. Something unexplainable happened to me that now I never feel jealous about someone's art or else, I instead just observe them, I don't really care what people think of my art, as long as they don't insult me or else. Of course, it makes me happy when people actually love my drawings and think that I actually know what I'm doing. The last one year I don't know what happened but I improved drastically and I didn't really do much or maybe I just didn't notice, but now I have almost no difficulty at drawing. Everything just improved out of nowhere. It's crazy. Maybe my brain just realized something lol
P.S. I love the video and I'll try my best! Thank you!
The comprehension of all art is in the drawing of a single line.

Thanks
whats the last tip?
what the last *TIP* ?
MARC????
Thanks a lot!
I think the art I made last week sucks compared to today, so I guess I'm making progress even if I don't notice it
i agree with almost all of them. BUT i dont use reference in technics
the number 3 is my biggest problem
