- I didn't live in a cave. But I did make art like a caveman.
It was a fun process making my own charcoal; one of the oldest artistic mediums on the planet. I appreciate you watching! and welcome aboard if you're new here :)

When I watched some of your video’s i have never checked your views. Today I watched this video and checked it. I was stumped. You sir, you make content that deserves way more than this. Keep up the good vibes.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thanks for the support and encouragement!! Appreciate you 😄🙌🏻
Thanks from Canada!
The main thing about making charcoal is eliminating the oxygen so it doesn't actually burn off. Cody on codys lab used cleaned out paint cans when he started making charcoal. He needed larger amounts for his experiments, so he upgraded to barrels, but it was still interesting. I wonder how a packed paint can would compare to the aluminum foil method. Anciently they'd stack the charcoal in large orderly piles with very little space in-between the sticks, and then I think they'd seal it with clay. The fires were very intense to the extent that it was used as a plot device in a book/tv series called Cadfael.
I think well you can buy stick charcoal for art very similar to what you created. I think the one you bought is crushed charcoal with a binder. I could totally be wrong though
Awesome, sounds like a great process and experiments! Thanks for sharing 😄🙌🏻
watching conners videos is like therapy
Love hearing that! Thanks for watching and supporting 😄🤗
7.3k!!??? Underrated!!
Thanks!! Appreciate you watching and for the support 😄🙌🏻
this guy deserves the world. When i watch one of his videos (ive been binge watching them for a day now) i just know hanging out with him is the best thing ever. the vibes he gives off are just different.
Aaaww thanks so much! Appreciate you! Legit means a lot that you take the time to watch multiple videos and leave such a thoughtful comment 🤗😄
Same, I came to find out how to make paper!
@@itsConnorCreatesI came from doradango and now I can’t stop
I love how you said the cavemen “probably” didn’t have tin foil. 😂
haha ya never know lol maybe tinfoil was a trendy thing back then
@@itsConnorCreates 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@itsConnorCreates it would have definitely been a novelty 😂
LOL! As I undrrstand it, Aluminum has only relatively recently bern smelted from its bauxite ore form, like ir only really started being smelted starting in the 1900s. That's super recent compared to iron, gold, & silver. So no, cavemen wouldn't've used Al foil (tangent: aluminum & tin [Sn on the Periodic table of the Elements] are different elements. Calling Aluminum foil "tin foil" is a misnomer.
Who needs foil when you got mud?
most underrated and amazing channel on youtube 🙏🙏
Woah thank you!! So appreciate your support and encouragement! 😄🙌🏻

Thanks so much!! Appreciate you watching and for the kind words and support 🙌🏻😄
Something about your videos make me feel really cozy. Though, the place you live in is also really beautiful. I'd love to live in a place like that.
Much love, peace.
Oh my goodness you’re so good at drawing 😮

The smudge test was a good idea. Would you consider carving? Great video and that bike is very stylish and looks fun to ride.
Thanks! And ya I love carving, would be awesome to spend more time focused on doing more 🙌🏻
And thanks for the support man! Appreciate you 😄🤗
Wherever you live is absolutely beautiful ❤
British Columbia 🇨🇦 😊 thankful for its beauty!
I’m watching this while finishing my last charcoal drawing for my drawing course. 🙃
Also you made vine charcoal which is different than compressed. Vine is thinner and lighter, and is often used quick gesture drawings.
Nice haha love that! 🙌🏻😄 and okay sweet! Thanks for sharing the proper terms, I had no idea!
Your content is very-slice-of-lifey and is very relaxing to watch ❤❤❤
Thank you! So glad you enjoy it, appreciate you watching! 😄🤗

Love the videos, they are the most relaxing but still entertaining videos I've ever seen on youtube. The fact that you have 100k subs makes me angry at yt algorithm, this shit is quality. +1 sub.

And rn I work freelance doing photo/video work and marketing strategy for brands :) and then my own stuff too on the side!
they use clay pots to make it and use bee wax to make them more stable sometimes animal fat
Oh cool! Thanks for the info!
Love the vids
Thank you! 😄🙌🏻
I don't know why but like your videos ❤
Thanks so much! 😄🤗
I wonder if there's a homemade way to compress them or shape them so they're more like to the modern ones but still faithful to the old method.
great video!
Thanks! 😄
what if you made the sticks square before charing them???
Did you try adding a point to your charcoal cave sticks?
Good idea! Maybe even before I put them in the fire I should carve a point 🙌🏻
Ur my favorite youtuber
Thank yoouuu 😄🙌🏻
@@itsConnorCreatesur welcome😁

Sweet! That’d be a fun project
Is that a Hoffmans axe?
like the way u draw
Thanks!
i get sunsets that are way more pretty
Nice! 🙌🏻
Where in the beautiful charcoal art are you
Haha BC 🇨🇦🙌🏻
Don’t forget your rock to sharpen them on, and a leather thong to wrap them in, to keep your fingers clean. 😂
Yes good call haha! I gotta level it up for next time
sharpen your stick bro lol
Ya maybe that would have helped a bit haha!
I was interested until the tin foil. Wth?
Haha I couldn’t figure out how to do it without it cause then they would burn up too much 😅🤷🏻♂️
pencles r made of charcole
🙌🏻😄
TiP, YOU CAN SHARPEN YOU'R CHARCOAL STICKS AND THEY CAN DRAW BETTER.JUST DO IT IN ONE OF YOU'R VIDEOS PLEASE.
"caveman technique" uses tin foil
Maybe they were advanced type of cavemen 😅😆
Nice! it would help if you could draw.
Thanks! Ya I hope to one day be able to
@@itsConnorCreates love u fr, deal with the hate like it was nothing
Most of us don’t believe in caveman. We actually have faith in Jesus Christ and believe the world is only about 7000 years old.
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Lol
Na. Most of us have brains
