Thanks for the lesson Tayler! If you want to take your digital painting even further check out this lesson on how to make your digital paintings look traditional - ruclips.net/video/0Dbf63YnkeA/видео.html
what are some best practices for project proposals and applying for artist residencies? I have found myself in a never ending cycle of proposing and applying tirelessly with very little success. Any tips to be more effective in these areas would be of tremendous help
I think of some random dumb, funny things. The next time someone says to me that draw the line there, meteorically, I want to literally draw them a line and hopefully laughter, the best medicine, comes into play.
I just met you today and I'm already getting an Idea of how I'm gonna learn digital landscapes painting on procreate after studying figures. Thank you so much for the video this inspired me more!🥰
Your demonstration is a lot easier to understand than tons of digital painting process videos out there, and a lot of important keys to accelerate the speed and manipulating the atmosphere are mentioned too. Thank you and Proko for this awesome video!
@@139-b7j So you mean that people who have been painting for years can't find something interesting and useful in a video and be good at the same time? If you're thinking when you get "good" you don't need to learn anything anymore you're wrong. The artists who are at a very high skill level never stop learning and pushing the boundaries. Get a grip
If you're cramped for screen space Krita has some great options for managing the U.I. such as a canvas only mode and pop-up palette among other options.

It's scary and fascinating how a 20-minute video reallt felt like a few years to me with how much information is concised and delivered. Thanks so much Tayler!
I was wondering if there was gonna be a digital art video and here we are. I’ve been working on a piece just certain parts of said piece is very intricate for me so thanks for this video!
@@artofcodeystevenson7758 I have recently created an art account called @lunar.dreams._ the piece I am working on is almost complete and will debut as its first post to my account I have a piece on my main @_.morningstar_ of my dog I did almost a year ago when I first got started doing digital art so yee!
Nice, I was just thinking "you know what I should watch a video about painting basics". So I typed it in the RUclips searchbar and then I see that you just uploaded a video exactly about that 20 mins ago!
OH MY GOD!!! This what exactly what I needed. I've been doing digital art on photoshop but I didn't know the basics. This video is really helpful. Thank you for the BIG BRAIN MODE 😊 I'm in my 4th year on an arts major what in reality I've retained so little information. The anxiety in me is setting in. I'm 24 and still doesn't what to do after college. Please give me some advice. I'd appreciate it 😢
This is the perfect video I have found for a beginner. Please also make a step by step tutorial (not a speed art) of any illustration or painting I just want to grab the complete workflow in adobe illustration or adobe photoshop. Thanks
Great video from a wonderful channel. Art books have provided me a much-needed escape from real life. When life was difficult I'd set up my easy chair with coffee, a desk lamp and a stack of art books beside me. They kept me going during the hardest times. My art books are the best investments I ever made. My 4 favorite books are: - Wonderworks by Michael Whelan - Legacy by Frank Frazetta - Infinite Worlds by Vincent DiFate - Great Fighter Jets of the Galaxy 1 by Tim Gibson
I get what you mean when you said that there is a disconnect using a non display tablet because right now I am not even able to achieve my maximum potential for character designs just because I can't see my hand movie on top of the drawing it is hard being a digital artist for cheap I thought going to digital art would be better because its cost effective but now I will need a display tablet or and an iPad because it's hard to do this yes many people have gone used to it but most people of that case didn't do drawing traditionally or maybe they just began learning about digital art in my case because of my traditional sense of watching a paper being filled with my hands I have gotten used to that feeling yes I can still make character designs but it makes me think way more times that I need to and that control+Z button is being pressed too many times now that is what happens when you did 8 years of traditional and 1 year and 7 months of digital
I've never used keyboard shortcuts when I first started, and I still kinda don't. I always worked with a mouse and I'm a fast clicker, I use right click a LOT, the only shortcuts I used was to zoom in and out and copy and paste and of course delete. But now I use undo (ctrl+z) and redo, and shift lmao. I'm using a non screen tablet so it's a little harder, I just put those shortcuts on my tablet keys so it's a lot easier, it feels awkward using the keyboard and the tablet and the mouse all at the same time, but sometimes I will do that. I've been digital drawing and painting for over 15 years just as a hobby, on and off...and yeah I still don't think I can do the short cuts, it's something I can't get used to, I just put everything closer when using my pen and just quickly click on the tool, maybe I should try to figure out how to use shortcuts for certain things. I also need to figure out how to use clipping masks and other layer masks. I learned all this stuff when I was 15 and there were zero video tutorials back then, you had to pay for a video tutorial like this and I was a kid. So I used website tutorials and most of them didn't tell me about layer masks. So some of my old drawings there's like tons and tons of layers just stacked on top of each other for each thing, highlight, shadow, base etc for every piece of the drawing, I get over 100 layers. I never used to group them either! I also came from Corel Paint Shop Pro at 15 it was all I could afford, until I figured how to pirate photoshop, so that's where my bad habits come from I think.
Oh my god, this is so good! Watching the process is calming and inspiring. And Taylor Olivas has amazing insight. It is so simple when you look at it. It's just a matter of practice isn't it? :D
My Artist 12 broke just a few days ago and I'm watching so many Tutorials rn. Ahhhhhhh i don't have the money for a new Tablet and That's sooooo frustrating
I think of some random dumb, funny things. The next time someone says to me that draw the line there, meteorically, I want to literally draw them a line and hopefully laughter, the best medicine, comes into play.
I find those very short specific tutorials very useful, especially when flooded with work I can still add some learning without using too much time. thanks!
could you please do a video on more advanced concepts please? like for mid/advanced artists, after some years practicing i feel like my art progress has stagnated
I'm an alumni of LCAD!! Are you teaching this semester and next semester as well? I can take one class every semester for free and I'm interested in taking a digital painting class next semester. Will you be teaching a different subject or digital painting?
Great video! I like the shorter, less time consuming duration of this video, however I'd have liked to have a little bit more depth into maybe one or two come complex actions he did, they were difficult to follow at times. What he did with Levels for example.
I am currrently looking at the comments trying to find someone who explains exactly how he did the Levels layer thing xd. Like, I can open it, but don't really understand how he set it up to work like it did.
Is it bad to physically abuse your hands, if you draw? I mean, if I do weights, heavy work, or strong and stressful exercises with my hands, does it affect my drawing quality? such as calisthenics, athletics, gymnastics, or weightlifting. I think it is an important issue that hardly anyone talks about?
Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell, the classic fantasy artist couple - you know the ones painting naked muscular barbarians - were professional bodybuilders themselves, so I guess its not a showstopper. Did you tried to google the answer?
@@lonelybookworm okay, let's dissect this dead frog of s joke: "T&A" is an euphemism and abbreviation for breasts and rear end on a woman. The phrasing on the video, and I'm paraphrasing here, was something like "I stack my tools' hot keys so I can keep them close to my hand". Said keys were T and A on the keyboard. My remark implied that the choice of keys was not arbitrary and a bit cheeky. It's likely not the case, but the faux inference made me chuckle.
Really greand and cool sharing !! this is amazing digital painting idea !!! so cool The colors are so beautiful !!! nice sharing :) big like for your work !
round about 11:30 im thinking . if i painted that i would have erased it out of frustrations . its not working its sucks. its horrible... then i watch the rest and think. how the hell did it end up so perfect...
Hmm, call me crazy but my iPad Pro looks bigger and more effective than that Wacom. Not to mention if you like the shortcuts you can also just get a Bluetooth keyboard.

Could we by any chance get the brushes you use for this video?

I've been meaning to learn digital painting for a long-time, and I found this gem. Thank you so much ! Can you please upload more videos on this ?
Amazing technology - and the artist who knows how to use it! Just astounding how far we've come from a couple of guys in a 1976 garage - to this!
Oh wow i was just trying to learn how to paint digitally then this showed up on my notifications. Thank you
Me too lol
Haha mee too 😂
Same here! Don't tell the sponsor but i got a huion...
Thats cause google is spying on everyone
You tube recommendations are getting good
Lots of little "aha"-moments for me in this vid, both technically and artistically. Thanks!
I love these kind of 20 minute videos!
Why does your digital painting look so much better than real life???
Proko, always the right video at the right time.
This is like what I'm currently studying and wanted thank you
wow thankyou , alot to learn from you
thanks a lot proko. Was just looking for something like this.
Oh my god, you are now my new Idol
I literally just got me a table recently for my birthday, this is such a 0erfect coincidence
Sophisticated artwork! I think your work is very special and wonderful. thank you for sharing. I respect you who have learned a lot from your work.
This video is soooo amazing!!! Please make another one.
It's possible to put on subtitles? I don't have a very good hearing, I would aprecciate very much if somebody could do this kindness!
Turn on the caption
@@sillyeyelash291
if the person on the video doesn't have a good diction in his speech, automatic captions are useless
he made an english caption and it’s not youtube’s autogenerated ones
@@chuckymonkeybin9711 thank you!! he updated with these subtitles! now i can understand everything!
wow that is an awesome idea! to scan your own images for brushes, WOW amazing, thanks!
Wow, I'm still learning digital painting and this is incredible.
This video is GOOOOLD.
love it. can you do a film on how to make your own custom brushes.
I am really impress, thanks
Not what I expected but better

check out dave greco tutorials, he doesn't use many tools and most uses 3 layer modes. he loves to paint on top of everything.
u can also check out mohammed agbadi tutorials, that's where i learned all about layer modes and how useful the lasso tool can be.

Thank you for the tips Guru. 🙏
Thanks 4 this!
the Albert Bierstadt picture is often my desktop too. the lighting is amazing.
Love it, please make more of these
So thorough. I still need to get more acquainted with photoshop. This will definitely help.
Maybe that's just me but, Doesn't it feel like this is more about advertising the cintiq rather than talk about painting tips?
omg the wacom one connects to my android, I kinda want that instead of carrying around a laptop
This is excellent!
Thanks I was looking for this and got notification💯😆
Shows awesome Wacom tablet, then reminds you that tools do not matter.
That's the way to do product placement

well, I'm a complete beginner. this video is good but just jumped into really complex stuff.
The keys are practice and experimentation. Start small and build up from there.
I found I was already doing a lot of this stuff, but that I also really needed someone to give me permission to do the rest. Thanks.

Why seeing you great artists doing everything in time lapse make it look easy but doing it is preety hard
Extremely fun video that held my attention for the full run time. Never saw somebody use so many selections while painting.
this is so amazing! I've been using Photoshop for years, but not professionally, self taught kinda, and this video showed a new world for me
Nowadays you can buy procreate very cheaply which has undercut all the greedy companies like Wacom and Adobe.
More please
any tutorials specifically on the level adjustments cause I got VERY lost around there lol
Dis guy iz all liek talkin' shop but he drew a circle! A CIRCLE!11 :))))))))))))
literally a photoshop tutorial... this is supposed to be art? “digital art” is not just photoshop... or even mostly photoshop
I never used a levels layer while drawing, this looks really cool, great teacher!
Great. Have u drawn using stylus or something or by using mouse
round about 11:30 im thinking . if i painted that i would have erased it out of frustrations . its not working its sucks. its horrible... then i watch the rest and think. how the hell did it end up so perfect...
This is interesting from the very first minutes, and all the way through - wonderful! Thank you!

Put off the background music buddy. .
Jazz needs to be the king of background music again
Wish i had a cheap tablet
Dude! I've been using Photoshop for years and I NEVER knew about that auto select layer option!! That's going to save me time and aggravation. Lol.
