Imagine the ripples of emotion that others enjoyed watching this video as we shared the happiness and tears of the recipients who received the artworks. Like a pebble tossed into a still pond.
Devon Rodriguez is such a kind soul, bringing smiles to so many people when he draws their portraits. The woman he drew that cried made me cry, damn it!
The most touching thing about this is that they were for free. This touches ppl immensely. That one would care enough to take the time to do it, then to give it for free? THAT is priceless! Thank u for the video. Would be awesome knowing that person. Blessings falling everywhere he goes
to the one whose having their tough times, i pray that whatever u're going thru gets better & whatever u're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine. thru ups & downs, success & failures never forget the above almighty is always there spiritually & won't leave behind with u have faith & trust him with all ur heart & everything goes well, wishing everyone have a blessed day ahead. Amen ❣️🙏🏼
This is soooooo touching. Wow. Hard to watch with a dry eye. Talent like this is soooooo special. And often the artist just takes it for granted. Just amazing.
I used to touch people's hearts through music, and spoken word. I can't do that anymore, and it has left me feeling broken, and empty. I now simply post the music I used to do... mostly on my main channel. I'm not attractive at all, and thankfully don't live where street artists work. Devon Rodriguez is my hero, for his art, and the beauty of his heart. Watching these artists touch people's lives with their gifts made me cry, and sadly smile a little for some of the reactions. Thank you for this beautiful video. ~An Old Apache Woman Named No One
I'm always amazed by people drawing portraits in a short amount of time... Went through drawing a detailed portrait once I'm really proud of, but it took me two weeks of drawing atleast 8 hours a day and than there are people who do the same in 30 minutes.
Que envidia tener ese arte y poder plasmar para siempre un gran momento. Y poder despertar esos sentimientos en la gente. Felicidades a esos grandes artistas !!!
Me looking at a stranger for two seconds: Her: "What are you staring at, creep?" Guy drawing a stranger in detail for half an hour from across the room: Her: "Aww how sweet!"
Another great video! Couldn't help but cried tears of joy. These artists did it for the reactions...both from the reactions of the people and most importantly...the way that it makes a person feel to give something. There's no better feeling than giving whether it's love or something material...as long as it's given freely.🤔
yeah... artists need to earn a life, you know? unlike you say, many of these made those portraits by commission, to ask for some money after, or to try to please someone in particular. this world is made of more than feelings and it's a hard life for one who tries to make a living out of art.
@@artzreal I have to agree with you on that point. My daughter in law is a wonderful artist. My 3 grandchildren are almost or already a black belt in karate because she did all of the murals and art work for the dojo. Bartering and trading is what we need to be doing anyhow so that we're not dependent on govt. entities that don't give a rats ass about us. Good luck to you and may you walk in good health.🤔
@@terrileezink7744 artists used to trade their art for meals and a bed in old inns. Now we're not so lucky. Still, once, I also traded a couple of months' worth of lessons in a Martial Arts/Body Build Gym. Underground bartering is what we'll be doing very soon if we don't want to get chip implanted. not to mention the magnetic pole shift we're already entering... hope you been prepping. Good luck for you all, too.
Everybody is talented!!!!!! Don't let people put you down and say you can't do anything...The trick is in life is to find where your talent lie. When you find it, motivation, work and never giving up is the key....
The thing about art s that it reminds us that we have a HEART. Every human heart needs to have a place to extend the love we all carry inside, all the love we have a heard time sharing with other humans. All those tears is the heart weeping because we are desperate to feel!! How many of us have pets that we love?? Simply places to love!!!
The lady on the train who burst into tears, for some reason this really touched me. I'm not sure what was going on in her life, but the outburst of emotions tells me that she probably wasn't in a good place. Maybe it was loneliness, isolation or who knows. But I felt her emotion deeply. I would love to know about her, and if she is okay.
I wish I had the talent to do this. After asking my dad through 27 years of marriage to buy my mum an Omega wristwatch ( a dream that she'd had since she was a teen ), my dad failed miserably. It wasn't the lack of watch, but complete lack of effort from my dad in every area of his marriage to my mum and she eventually left him. I do not blame her. When I left the army and I landed my first decent salaried job in my field, I asked my 2 brothers and sister if they would come in with me and buy our mum the watch. All 3 of them were earning more than me. I got generic fob-offs from them all. I was so utterly stunned at how selfish they were. So I thought fck it. I walked into the jewellers shop with my Christmas bonus and brought her the gorgeous Omega Deville 22ct gold face/bezel on Alligator skin. I watched her open it on Christmas morning. She burst into tears. It cost me £800 and was totally worth it. I got to make my mums dream come true. The same watch today would cost over £7500. It isn't the value of the gift folks, it's the thought that you put into it. That is where the true value is. Everybody had forgotten about my mums dream, possibly even mum, but I didn't. Love you mum. xxx
OMG... this Devon R might be my 2nd favorite artist after Akiane Kramarik...... Incredible how good'n'fast some ppl can draw !!! World needs more ppl like this making strangers happy!
There are a lot of truly talented people out there! The two that really effected me were the Swiss judges got made a fool of and the one where the old guy received a portrait of his beloved pooch! A thousand thumbs up!
Am I enjoyed this video? Of course I did... Brought tears into my eyes... I really needed to see the people enjoying the portraits of themselves! Thank You!
You're amazing! Made people smiling and look at their happy face! You did great deeds to them by simple action that's the most important. That's what makes you an extraordinary person! My respect for you :)
I’m not convinced that he draws people on the subway that quickly. He probably takes a pic of them and gives it to them later because look at the detail, some of them are in color in great detail. Most people are on the subway for 5 to 7 minutes. I don’t deny the talent, I just don’t believe he draws them in real time on the subway
The precise lighting and shading of the portraits leads me to believe that he is indeed looking at a still photo. If it was a more broad sketch style or caricature I'd be more inclined to see how it can be done in a few minutes from a live subject. But yeah, I'm calling it staged. He does have undeniable skills though.
you'd be surprised how fast artists can work. My parents paid for a street artist rendition of me once, back in Fiji, I still have the picture, probably took them 9 minutes and it looks exactly like me at 5 years old. Actually one of my favourite pictures of me, looks _exactly_ like me, just 10/10 talent for sure PS. I was with my best friend when his Dad got a caricature drawing of himself done, and that also took like 10 minutes and looks exactly like him but exaggerated. I like how they display that picture most prominently at my friend's parents' house; like front and center over the dining table lol.
Those subway drawings.... The person being drawn is fully complicit i.e. in on it. But their reactions after the first few seconds of seeing the amazing drawing is genuine. They would have to sit for a couple of hours
These are badass artworks. I used to love to draw when I was a kid. I felt like a was getting pretty good. Until I met others that could draw like this. I realized then that I am not the chosen one and gave up on it. Oh well.
In the year 2000 I was standing outside the post office in Narbonne, France. Across the street I spotted a young woman sitting with her back against a wrought iron fence, she had a sketch pad and was frantically drawing on the pad. Curious, I walked across the street and discreetly stepped behind her to take a gander. There it was --- a beautiful, large black and white portrait of a bloodshot eyeball.
RUclips is so hard on my emotions. Before watch this I watched one on “instant Karma” in which some men were filmed trying to kick dogs on the streets. This made me VERY angry and made me hate humans. Then I watched this one of painting/ drawing strangers and it brought tears of happiness to me. People can be amazingly kind and loving. I am really not going to sleep well tonight, my head is spinning. 😢😂❤
Early 2000s there was craze of painting n sketch n i earned lot of repect 2022 commercial art has changed ,so now i have changed to my other arts like dancing n singing...as per demands of time .. But glad to see this sketch artist struggling really hard making exact portrait combining it with video n RUclips reaction channel that can give good subscribers n following...creative idea though
The important thing is..the artist is telling them ..I see you and you're appreciated and unique..well done.
Imagine the ripples of emotion that others enjoyed watching this video as we shared the happiness and tears of the recipients who received the artworks. Like a pebble tossed into a still pond.
Sometimes I come to videos like this to get all that out ❤
Devon Rodriguez is such a kind soul, bringing smiles to so many people when he draws their portraits. The woman he drew that cried made me cry, damn it!
True superpowers - art and music. Imagine having the power to simply change someone’s day for the better. What an incredible gift and superpower.
The most touching thing about this is that they were for free. This touches ppl immensely. That one would care enough to take the time to do it, then to give it for free? THAT is priceless! Thank u for the video. Would be awesome knowing that person. Blessings falling everywhere he goes
Not really. A lot of them were paid for, obviously. The free ones though, yes.
@@loveforeignaccents sometimes people paid the free ones
does this type of channel gets monetised or not????
Unfortunately, those videos are set up fakes.
The most precious gift a person can receive is someone’s talent ❤

To have that kind of talent and to make someone that happy....priceless
I am sure a lot of these artists have photographic memories. Simply amazing, a talent I wish i possess.
This is soooooo touching. Wow. Hard to watch with a dry eye. Talent like this is soooooo special. And often the artist just takes it for granted. Just amazing.
I'm so happy that these artists exist.
The world would be just that much sadder without them.
I have tears in my eyes! This is such a beautiful thing to do and the portraits are also beautiful!

The guy who yelled: "GORGOUS!": such a hilarious reaction xD but beautiful!!!
I’m always blown away by the talent these people have from eye to brain to hand to an amazing reproduction of life. Truly a talent.

practice baby all about the practice.
In 66 years, I have never see a young boy with a talent like DEVON RODRIGUEZ. ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
This artist is as generous as his exceptional talent. He uses his divine spirit well.
Which artist? There were several.

@@jamesrobiscoe1174 Oh, okay. Thanks!

‘divine spirit’?? Really?

she is a model we have seen on youtube before
The wedding painter actually shows how she meets them and the venue and pre paints the background
Bringing smiles to people is truly noble work.
My only talent is being late to work.
Atleast you have work to go late
@Jake
Maybe get up 10-15 minutes earlier than usual??
Wow! Amazing how that works!
Everybody is talented!!!!!! Don't let people put you down and say you can't do anything...The trick is in life is to find where your talent lie. When you find it, motivation, work and never giving up is the key....

And I am the guy that waiting to be replace at work by you
It would be nice to have that talent and be able to surprise people like that.

The pet ones are the ones really worth doing. I love those ones.
@4:50 what a wonderful friendship. Clearly are both on the right profession, photography and drawing; true artists
OMG... this Devon R might be my 2nd favorite artist after Akiane Kramarik...... Incredible how good'n'fast some ppl can draw !!! World needs more ppl like this making strangers happy!
I love Akiane Kramarik!!
There are a lot of truly talented people out there!
The two that really effected me were the Swiss judges got made a fool of and the one where the old guy received a portrait of his beloved pooch!
A thousand thumbs up!
does you know ,,does this channel is monetised or not.....???
After a tough few weeks this is the sort of wholesome content I needed to see. Thank you
its beautiful that Devon shares his gift
Am I enjoyed this video? Of course I did... Brought tears into my eyes... I really needed to see the people enjoying the portraits of themselves!
Thank You!
💕Love this so much…bringing smiles to strangers with his art💕

"Imagine you're hanging out a coffee shop and some stranger keeps looking at you." Honestly , I'd walk away.
Why?
Still watching and have to take a quick break, but ABSOLUTELY LOVE THESE and these artists' talent and kindness!!!!

Several of these are fake, and are clearly drawn from photos.
Probably staged.

He does have undeniable skills though.
I don't know, I've seen Comic Con artists blast through drawings of people in fairly elaborate costumes in minutes.
you'd be surprised how fast artists can work. My parents paid for a street artist rendition of me once, back in Fiji, I still have the picture, probably took them 9 minutes and it looks exactly like me at 5 years old.

Absolutely beautiful video... thanks for the upload!!! Had to favorite it so I could come back to it again. Hope you're enjoying your weekend!!!
this video melts my heart and bring me a lot of feelings ...
nothing amaze me more than the arts ... I wish i could drew.
One of the best videos I've seen in a long time.
the artist is a simple guru in drawing with a simple pencil, well done
i am so grateful for your work! Have a nice week guys.
Amazing attention to detail. That talent is hard to come by.
the lady on thumbnail is so gorgeous heart❤❤❤
Those are really interesting and beautiful paintings. It's the first time I've seen them.
Women are so beautiful- in general. Us guys couldn’t survive without the balance you provide.
Being able to draw is such an underrated talent.
God given talents. Life is full of surprises
After having now seen so many of these, I feel it should have happened to me by now, get with it people!
Not only enjoyed but I'm inspired...I bacame emotional watching people's reaction. No words to express myself. Love u ✨
Devon = Legendary
This is so beautiful and heart-warming
Wow! I love this!! This kind of talent is absolutely amazing
I BECAME EMOTIONAL WHEN I SAW THE OTHER PEOPLE'S REACTIONS ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY SAW THE PORTRAIT OF THEIRE LOVE ONCE.?
"loved ones"
Those subway drawings.... The person being drawn is fully complicit i.e. in on it. But their reactions after the first few seconds of seeing the amazing drawing is genuine.
They would have to sit for a couple of hours
I highly doubt it, and no one sits on the subway for a couple of hours, LMAO!
Who do you know that sits on the subway for a couple hours?! I think the artists where definitely faster than that.
Damn, brought a tear to this grown man's eyes
Pls make this a series I looooooove this ❤❤❤
These are badass artworks. I used to love to draw when I was a kid. I felt like a was getting pretty good. Until I met others that could draw like this. I realized then that I am not the chosen one and gave up on it. Oh well.
sharing your talent is priceless
🇵🇷🇺🇲 This American from Puerto Rico does everything excellent 👌👍. 🇵🇷🇺🇲
Just amazing. And so kind. ❤️❤️❤️
This literally inspired me to write a short story!
It would be nice to think that those who could afford it made the artists' time worthwhile.

What a beautiful moment, can you give me a picture? 😍😍
whats the name of the angry guy that's says GORGEOUS, I want to follow him he's awesome
How beautiful! You made my night! Thank you so much ❤️
My brother has done the same for strangers. Not saying this because he is my brother but he is sooo good and kind hearted.
出于对美术的喜爱，我经受过大约7年的专业美术教育，但工作以后再也没有画过了。看到这个视频，我决定捡起我的画笔，而不是彻底放弃我的绘画技能。
Unreal talent 😱
i'm glad these ppl enjoy their portray. I've read too many negative reactions

Tears of joy!!!
Vanity is a very strong human weakness
Oh my.... This 2:32. The entire wedding party! Well, probably most, not all, but that is amazing.

IM A BIG FAN OF DEVON AND IM GLAD YOU PUT HIM IN THE VIDEO 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Touching is one thing. Upsetting is quite another.
So uplifting.
Biggest MISTAKE 4 judge that's a RARE TALENT
Still watching 💪💪💪 March 7, 2023
Who doesn't love the subway guy!
Me, because his videos are staged and give a false impression on how life drawing works. They're drawn from photos.
6:13 this is super wholesome...🥹
Imposible gift that you have ❤
If only my ex cared when I made him a gesture of a portrait. All these make me cry
I hear you, Leah.👍🥲
bagus banget lukisanya
I remember when silhouette makers could be still be found in parks in North America and Europe.
Fantastic video and peaceful work👍!! Greetings dear friend💐💐 🔔🎉👍
I wouldn't look as good as these people in a portrait😔👍
I watch Devon Rodriguez a guy with amazing talent, people who get his sketches and their reaction is amazing.
Assuming someone stays around for an hour or so... these videos crack me up that people believe they aren't staged.
