I haven't seen anyone mention this, but I am really glad Jazza made sure to include options for darker skin tones in his set and showed how to shade darker skin, even if only for a brief moment. I know many artists who can't color dark skin properly, whether because they don't have the right colors or because they don't know how (it is different from shading paler skin, but most artists are taught that the way of shading paler skin is the way to shade all skin tones which isn't always accurate and can make darker skin look washed out!). I'm sure it'll make a big difference for other artists!
I was just about to make a similar comment. I really struggle with darker skin tones (lighter ones are still a little hard but not as much) and always ended up making them look "muddy". So happy to have him go through a good technique for making the dark colours as vibrant as they are.
Okay with that you are so I have experience with you soon and write on the perfect for me I have to create the Perfect time working experience of my clients.
Really appreciate the tutorial. Jazza is a really excellent teacher, and this is a side you don't see as much of in his art challenges. Definitely has me tempted to check out his skillshare classes.
I HAVE seen him a lot recently. I watch all his videos on this channel and I'm subscribed to Tabletop Time also, but I am still awed by his beard and how good he looks with it! Isn't it crazy how a simple beard can change someone's appearance so much? He has always been handsome but the beard just elevates it ten fold! Lol
I'll be honest- I didn't watch this when you released it. Clearly my brain didn't think it was 'clickbaitey' enough. But, when you called out it's performance on your next video, it made me think- 'why didn't I watch that one?' So I came back to watch it, and man I enjoyed it. I feel like I need calling out sometimes, and reminding that content like this is far more educational and engaging than a lot of other stuff out there on RUclips- the stuff that my brain makes me click on because of the thumbnail. Thanks as always Jazza, and next time you release a tutorial I won't be missing it!
the exact same thing happened to me. I wasn’t too interested at first, but after watching it, I got so inspired by it that now I just want to get up and color something of my own with all the new techniques i learned. It’s upsetting that such high quality videos like this don’t get as much attention
Same. This is the Jazza I subscribed to years ago. I honestly don’t watch many of the new videos. Alpay sent me to the “exposed” series and that brought me here. I might be in the minority, but I think I’d click on more Jazza vids if they were like this. Chill and informative.
Hey Jazza! You said you were feeling a bit disappointed that this video hasn't done as well according to RUclips analytics. I can get why that would be really bad and disheartening for a professional RUclipsr. But for the record, I got a lot of value from this video. I'm not an artist. I'm just someone who enjoys coloring for relaxation and therapeutic purposes. It's like meditation for anxious/high energy people. So it may as well look pretty when you're all done. I can't wait to (try to) apply some of techniques you've kindly shared with us. Thank you for all the love, passion, and hard word you consistently put into your content; regardless of the numbers. This is the RUclips I enjoy.
My thoughts exactly. It’s so sad that algorithms hide content like this. I’ve been a subscriber for years and I didn’t see that this video was up. I did see the next video suggested for me I watch. Probably because it’s about giveaways and such. So frustrating! I love content like this video. Jazza is a great and fun teacher!
100% agree. I'm also someone who enjoys coloring but took my education into a biochemistry path and never got much of a technical art education so your color theory and blending advice is really interesting and (thankfully) easy to understand. It is a shame how the algorithm controls what people engage with and then turns around and tells you that people aren't engaging with you. You do great videos and i subscribe to your channel for the tutorials and the "i've never done this before but lets fly by the seat of our pants and try it out" videos. Your positivity and enthusiasm are a bright spot on this platform.
I agree 100% it was very direct and easy to understand, especially since I'm new to alcohol markers, it may not get as much traction thanks to algorithms but I'd argue it's more valuable and has replayability
I watched Sarah's video of her reviewing the pro artist box and she coloured the same drawing that jazza did this video. She did mention that she wanted to see how jazza would colour it. I was pleasantly surprised to see Jazza colour the same drawing (whether it be coincidental or on purpose) and I like comparing the tips that both artists gives. It was really fun to watch 😋🤞
I did a 3 year illustration degree, and I've learned more from Jazza's tutorials and skillshare than I ever did at university. He's an excellent teacher and I can't possibly not recommend taking his classes. We don't deserve Jazza, he's too good for us
This has sooo many good tips in it!! A question though: how do you add the tonal variation with the coloured pencils (or alcohol markers, if you're feeling daring, I guess), without making it confusing what the actual colour of the item is? Having those colouring pages and seeing how you can just colour the whole area first without discrimination makes it less intimidating for me who always thinks too much before doing lol
There’s a lot of context involved. It sounds lame but it’s true. If you have a digital art program take the brightest rainbow of colors you can and paint over them all with a slightly transparent brown (like 92% opacity) You can still make out all the colors from context, despite them all now being technically brown. Once you make a “rule” (Jazz’s did shade warm with cool and vice versa) sticking with it usually implies color that isn’t really there. We can all agree the dress in this video is blue, but the actual hue is closer to purple. The skin tone is green in some places. Our brains just assume the color based on the context of everything else.
1. dont use colour pencils over the entire area that needs to be shaded. leave a little but of "true" colour between shadows and highlights or hue shifts or whateevr you gonna do. every new layer of shade or hue is in a smaller area than before to create the gradient. 2. In between adding tonal variation in diferent areas or with different colours, Step back from your work, walk away for a few minutes and look again. The reason is, when you creating the piece, you know what the original colour is like, but the person who has never seen the initital phases but will see only the end result, doesnt know that. Here is the thing tho, "blue" for example encopasses a huge area in the colour wheel/chart. If I presented a colour to you from any of those areas, you would call it blue. It is only when it is placed next to other shades do you start saying stuff like greenish-blue, reddish blue, its a bit more purple and all that. What I am trying to say is, even with adding different colours lightly on top, your brain still forms a cohesive picture of blue. Because our brains are not trained to discern the truth but to make a seamless meaningful understanding of the world around us as is the most comfortable to us and our worldview. So that pure colour inbetween conveys that the piece is blue and brain interprets tonal variation accordingly. The gradient helps form connections between those colours for thar seamless transition and understanding. But artists, when making the piece, register different colours and that difference is more stark when you are too into the piece. That is why sstepping back wil readjust your brain a little bit. This is more important in the beginning. After a while you get a feel for it but this is still a good practice. This is why most of my artwork is never made in one sitting. I make it in multiple small sittings. THis allows me to do larger artworks even with my constraint of time (because art is my hobby with an entire day job, house chores and other stuff), but also helps me identify and correct any mistakes I am making, I can learn a new technique in between if I need to do something and I dont know how and it constantly allows my brain to re-evaluate everything with a fresh set of eyes.
The thing that helps me is to remember that your mid tone is your true color, and the added colors you use for your shadows and highlights are meant to be subtle and just add a little bit of depth to your tones. The red Jazza shaded the dress with would look really wrong if he made it very saturated and heavy because it would start to cover the original blue and become too prominent, so he adds the red very lightly to make the shadows more of a purple so the original blue is still there and blends smoothly. Same for the yellow, you want there to be a hint of the blue blending into the light, but you don’t want the two colors to mix into a dark green and you don’t want the yellow to just be yellow and seem like a separate color on the dress, so lightly fading the two colors together helps the transition feel natural and make the yellow feel like light on a blue dress.
I really enjoyed this video and it makes me sad that it performed worst than your other videos, not only because this has great value, in general, but specially because you are really good at transmiting what you know. Considering that so much of your knowledge is empirical, it's really impressive! This deserves more love (part of the reason I'm commenting is to feed the algorithm gods). When (or if) I can afford a Skillshare subscription I WILL definitely be checking your classes on illustration and character design! Thank you for all the hard work, Jazza.
I'm not an artist, I'm a crafter, but I would LOVE to see more videos like this on your channel every so often, it's really cool to see all the different tips and tricks. I understand that it's not getting as many views as your other videos, but it would still be nice to see more of.
perfect! i always avoided coloring my drawings because i didn't understand how to blend colors correctly but this gives me a starting point, goint to try it!
The video is here guys!!! We really appreciate the tutorial. Some of us here maybe are just amateurs/beginners or experienced artists and we are so glad to have this opportunity to learn something like this and are able to improve the things we mostly have mistakes on when it is coming to coloring or other stuff. I hope you keep doing more stuff like this. You really help a lot of new beginners who just started liking art. I’m so happy that every time I watched your videos things would pop up like ideas or techniques on how I could improve my art. This video really really helps me a lot since I’m going to start on coloring but since I don’t have any materials I been only using basic crayola colored pencils. I hope one day I could have the materials and practice with it along my journey. BIG APPRECIATION FOR THIS VIDEO AND SPECIALLY JAZZA OF COURSE.
U can get there bro, U got it and I'm cheering for u!!! Its super rare to c a positive comment on a art tutorial but u did it so Good Luck fellow artist. I'm practicing digital color so I will get there too after I'm done with human anatomy only leg muscles are remaining I hope that u can get successful in whatever u are doing
I hate that this video isn't doing as well because i like being able to come to RUclips to learn and this is my favorite video of yours in a while because this is really solid information that I see really helping me with my art
The video worked perfectly.. this is what I was looking for to pull the trigger on buying the set for my daughter. She loves art and is far and away a thousand times better at it than I am but thankfully this video can show how the kit is different from the naffy Crayola sets and Poundland colours she has been using.
Thanks!! That's the first time I've seen the Gold and Chrome test sheet tutorials, very interesting. I will have to try that one. And the using blue on the skin tone for shadow, and red\pinks on the blue for shadows. And then showing why using the red + blue makes it darker not the same was something I never thought of before. Things like this is why it's still great to have tutorials in 2021! ;) Maybe have one tutorial like video a month might be helpful. Revisiting some of the older videos and showing any new tips and tricks with drawing people\animals\objects might be helpful! :D
My son (and I) love your channel. I'm teaching him there's more to colouring and drawing than plopping one colour on a piece of paper and calling it a day. Your channel helps so much. We're in self quarantine at the moment and we bought him and his sister a bunch of markers. He has his sketchbook, a pencil and eraser, his markers and now also my old pencils to use on top of the markers, "to make it look cool, like Jazza does it". Maybe one day we'll send you a picture of his art 😊
Had to come back to comment on this video after seeing Jazza's latest release. I really loved how much I learnt from this video, I've done a few art classes over the years but this is one of the best! I enjoy the way you make art fun and teach at the same time :) thanks Jazza sharing your world with us
Never had the patience/time for coloring but I'm watching this whole video and commenting to appease the algorithm and show there are still those of us who appreciate art more than gimmicks and giveaways.
I've been an artist for decades and the way you just described your color choices for shading and highlighting was so eye opening and it really clicked! I know it's going to take my work to a new level. Thank you so much! To teach something so complicated in just a few minutes and make it seem easy is a whole other skill on its own!
aah you make blending look so easy- no matter what, I can never seem to hide the streaky lines when I colour with markers! I never really grasped how to "push and pull" the layers like you have shown here, so thank you for making a tutorial on this, I'm going to try these tips out now
All these years later, all the videos of yours I’ve watched…LOVE that you can drop knowledge and skills on all of us! The blue to yellow tip! Loved it! Love your videos as always
The color theory bit at the end was good. I do a lot of “shading with colors” with my students, maybe I should do a video. Always enjoy your content! 🎨
Right off the bat, the snark alone made me glad I clicked on this video. Your recent art culture videos have made me decide to go back and watch and like all of your videos I haven't seen yet because we have to do our part to keep quality content alive and thriving and not get lost in the cringey, sell-out landscape of current art RUclips
These videos are my favorite - seeing you break down how you use color makes it so much easier to visualize. Not getting the views is an actual crime, this is easily one of the best tutorials out there
ahhh a return to roots. really nice to see a tutorial again from you! and it's also really neat to see just how far your art has come; i know you do a lot of gimmick videos now, but as demonstrated in this video, your use of color, shading, and contrasts has become a lot better since you originally started. i know your youtube isn't what you thought it would be, but hopefully you still have fun and hopefully you can also see just how much your art has grown since then!!
I am so happy you made this tutorial Jazza!!! I know you said RUclips doesn't really reward these kinds of videos but its still nice to see and are in fact useful. We are also happy because, despite you having tutorials from earlier in the channel, we still like to see your new techniques or different style coming through in newer content to see the contrast between your older videos and now.
So good to see Jazza posting amazing videos so frequently! I can’t wait to watch this video again and follow along when my Pro Artist Series Box comes!
Don't let the RUclips algorithm stop you from making amazing tutorials, These tutorials is what got me into following you in the beginning. Not everyone hear wants to see clickbait garbage. Keep killing it.
This kind of video is why I found you all those years ago & why I subscribed. When it was just you & Mrs. Jazza in your 1st studio. It was so amazing to watch you & your family grow. I miss this kind of stuff.
hey Jazza! i really enjoyed this video! in fact i liked it so much i would love to watch another tutorial. about making fabric folds. as an artist that’s one of the hardest things to come over. just a recommendation from me. keep up the amazing work!
This was like a blast from the past. Hell jazza’s old RUclips tutorials was what got me more heavily into art when I was in middle school, and now I’m a freshman art major in college, already building my art career and I owe a lot of it to RUclips tutorials from those years ago
I found your old tutorials in 2015/2016 while sketching in my grandma's living room. Crazy how long it's been, and how much both your channel and my own art have changed. I'm still subbed for a reason, but it's nice to come back to this after so long. :]
That was a great tutorial, Jazza. I really enjoyed watching it. It‘s odd how things change. There was a time where everyone was making tutorials and now it’s rare to see anyone make them anymore.
I got myself a box as a Christmas present for myself...I have felt kinda lost until now about trying alcohol based markers, let alone choosing pencils to go with said markers. But this felt like a good box to start with. :)
Solid tutorial! Even if the algorithm doesn't support this content, we super appreciate it. Your enthusiasm has really helped me just jump in and try things to see how they turn out and have fun doing it!
I’m so happy to see a tutorial from you again and about colouring of all things which is my favourite part of the art process! Your help is incredibly appreciated and your passion to grow the Arty Party is really admirable. Thank you for all that you do whether it’s tutorials like this or charming entertainment :)
This was a really fun & informative video. Really appreciate you going through these steps in depth. It's really cool seeing and learning about the different ways in which colour can be used to bring an artwork to life and make a good piece of art into a great one.
Hey it’s 2021 Mr Jazza. The internet is showing us ANYTHING is possible. … so thank you mr! I loved your painstaking test sheets. Can you show us the steps before? How you chose the right colours… even if they fail to achieve the right hues. I feel we’re starting at step 4 or 5… I’m happier with step 6 onwards… but those opening steps worry me still. Tangerine for gold? How did you get there? I’m a lady who currently just layers (PROMARKER) Oatmeal for a skin tone… and can’t quite make the jump you’re promoting.
Color theory is so intreating. Learning the difference between tones, tints, shades and hues is a game changer and the use of a complimentary colors for your shadows to cancel out the other color.
You should 3D print tiny characters and use them as chess pieces, paint them, and them use them to play a chess match with your wife to see who’s smarter.
i would love to do this, sadly nobody i know actually knows how to play chess properly, so i at least have 1 thing up on them as i am not very good at chess XD.
I really appreciated this! I got the kit for Christmas and just finished following this video to color my first piece from it! It actually made things doable, turned out pretty well, and made me excited to do more. Thanks!
You have no idea how much learning water colors and pencils and markers and gouache and oil helped me with my miniature painting. I think trying new mediums can help you grow in leaps and bounds in your preferred medium. Such a great tutorial and an amazing set for people who want to dip their toes into something new in one box!
RUclips is VERY MUCH a platform for Tutorials. In fact, it is the second most used search engine in the world. Hell, there's even a "How to" category! Don't tell me the algorithm doesn't support/ promote tutorials.
Ive been following you for YEARS and it’s been really amazing to watch you grow.. I really hope you know how amazing of an artist you truly are!🥰 thank you for continuing to inspire all of us and not losing yourself in the process. You undoubtedly deserve much more exposure.
Always work out the colours of your background first. That way you can tie in the colours of your main subject a lot better with some of the ideas Jazza mentioned. I recommend looking into environment composition techniques. This might help with a better understanding of the values you might need to consider for the final render of your image. Best wishes
@@loopyloki9864 I've been trying to get these holo-illuminating effects for the background. Trying to avoid landscapes and strucktures. Just so I wouldn't mess up the perspective of the image 😉
I actually went to college for art and I still really enjoy watching art tutorials. It’s fun to see other artists work and any techniques I might not know.
Honestly, I've missed the tutorial style art videos. My wife has bought me pro artist series box for Christmas (she's not great at keeping secrets) and I'm not a particularly good or talented artist, so these sorts of videos are really useful and interesting for me, especially the colour theory stuff at the end with the shadows. Thanks Jazza for the content!!!
I know this type of tutorial take is not what is 'popular' on RUclips anymore, but thank you for persevering with them. Even if it's only an occasional video, it is still greatly appreciated. There are still viewers on the platform that like to learn and find tutorial content interesting and entertaining even though RUclips algorithms discourage it. I know, there are other platforms that are more about the learning content, but they are not all as readily accessible. So... Thanks Jazza.
I got my wife your pro artist box for Christmas and she loves it. Thank you for making this video. It went a long way in helping us understand how to use markers better. I would love more content like this.
I saw you mention this video in your 'exposing customizing expensive things' video and I was delighted to hear you made a tutorial! Art tutorials can so hard to find in good quality, and yet this breaks things down and simplifies them so well! And seeing it in simple shapes first helps so much. I might have to incorporate that into my own process, to help with blends and color choices! Even if these videos don't do quite as well, they're still an invaluable resource to any artist looking for tips, and I appreciate it tremendously!
It's been so long since I've seen one of Jazza's tutorials, I forgot how good of a teacher he is when it comes to this stuff. It sucks that this video isn't being pushed by the algorithm and getting the traction it deserves, it's amazing.
I literally came to watch this bc jazza said it didn't do well in the newest video... Sadly view wise hes right but I really miss this version of RUclips art!!! This is exactly the content I've been hunting for for days now
Omg. You are truely a person of substance through and through from the beginning. Your OCs have always been multi skintoned and you didn't disappoint by reflecting this in your box and demonstration. CANT WAIT FOR MY BOXES TO ARRIVE!
This makes so much more sense to me! I’m 28 and I’ve always thought, man coloring is SO much more complicated than it was back in the kiddo years. But this just really clicked with my brain of how shading and blending work and just unlocked a whole new door for me. Now I’m gonna go try it out. Thanks so much Jazza! 😊 This really helped me out!
This was a great instructional video to watch! I love it because I too generally avoid black for shading, especially skin, and lean into darker blue and purples, lightening outward toward the reds, pinks, oranges, yellows, and sometimes greens. Contrast in color is one of my favorite things to work with because it creates some amazing effects.
Using complimentary colors to achieve shadows is fantastic. I use that technique all the time as a scenic artist to darken paint without making it look desaturated by adding black.
i missed videos like this. i got a lot of my drawing skills actually taught by jazza and i’m so full of joy seeing a tutorial from him again. so we’ll done and explained. (i usually don’t comment but i hope this helps the video)
I…. Did not really understand how these markers worked and I have AN ART DEGREE YA’LL. Wow. Um. Well, I learned something today and I tried out some stuff with my markers that I never use and I am blown away. Thank you for making this, Jazza! We can always learn something new!
This channel is the only art channel that makes me want to color my drawings instead of keeping it black and white, thank you. You also inspired me to get alcohol markers, so thank you for this helpful info. Sadly i am not getting ur bundle because its too pricy. Thank you for the tutorial though
Actually got nostalgic watching this video, because I remember when tutorials like this were all we got from this channel and how I made sure I didn't miss a single one of his videos. Sure, now it's got a lot more content variety and I'm not saying necessarily "it was better before", I just remembered what it felt like to get my first glimps into art making thanks to his tutorials and how eager I was to get my hands on the sacred ALCOHOL BASED MARKERS. Back then I didn't even draw at all myself, but I clearly remember how amazed I was by his art and his energy and how it made me want to learn more about it and maybe eventually try it myself. I really do at least partially owe it to him and these kind of videos if making art is one of my main hobbies now. I don't really know where I was going with this comment, but I guess all I wanted to say was thank you for making art and inspiring people and for this really nice dive into the past💓
These are my favorite sorts of videos! The way he uses the colors looks amazing! I love seeing the color swatches! Being so clearly labeled was fantastic too! Initially seeing it makes me feel like it would be too hard to even attempt, but the explanation and demonstrations are clear enough that I felt inclined to try coloring along while watching! Mine are not nearly that nice, but it's a huge improvement. This was a lot of fun and really was a great start to my day!
I've been watching you for a few years now and over the last few videos I am really blown away by how much your coloring improved. Everything looks so vibrant, lively and interesting. Also great and entertaining tutorial, the acrylic alien made me smile
This is actually a really clear and helpful tutorial. I always draw with just lead pencil because I have no idea how to do colour theory, so hopefully this tutorial helps me become better in some way. Thanks a lot Jazza.
This video is amazing. I'm not an artist and somehow I was hooked from start to finish. I love that you included diverse skintones and that even while compressing the video to be short, you included lots of amazing advice and art tips.
Been here since the beginning of the channel, so happy to see this type of thing return. Even if it’s just a rarity. My daughter (9) loves your content, especially if she learns something new. Thanks for giving us content to watch together over the years!
Jazza, this video is AMAZING. As an artist in training, every scrap of knowledge people more talented than me can impart is valuable. I know it didn't do well according to the algorithm, but it's been a major help to watch.
Thank you so much for doing this! I love seeing practical knowledge in action, and this is so useful for where I'm at in my art journey. I was also on the fence about buying your art collection, but after seeing it in action in such a beautiful piece it made the choice easy. I also absolutely love seeing tutorials from you again, and I'll be using that red shading blues trick in my own art!
We need more videos like this. Colour is soo hard to work with. This is a great video that shows it's not as complex as we think it is. Definitely will give it a try. I often resort to using pencils, graphite and lots of smudging for blending with dry media. Jazza can you do a video on colouring or shading with monotones?
I hate the fact that RUclips discourages these types of videos I am soo disappointed that RUclips didn't recommend the video to me I haven't been the most actively commenting viewer for the 5 years I've been watching, but i write this in hopes that RUclips Recommends more of these videos from jazza (and others) cuz jazza is carrying the age of art RUclips that i am most attached to and love.
Really enjoy the “nostalgia” in this tutorial!! I know RUclips has changed and these don’t park well on the algorithm, but I LOVE IT!!! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!! I bought myself that kit for my early birthday present so I can’t wait to sit down to the art desk and try out these techniques on the queen drawing.

Love this much more "grounded" content. Reminds me of the old days
Those were my thoughts exactly. I really enjoyed this video
RUclips was simpler back then, kinda miss it
Same!
Me too!!
I never thought i would have nostalgia for old "tutorial" RUclips
I haven't seen anyone mention this, but I am really glad Jazza made sure to include options for darker skin tones in his set and showed how to shade darker skin, even if only for a brief moment. I know many artists who can't color dark skin properly, whether because they don't have the right colors or because they don't know how (it is different from shading paler skin, but most artists are taught that the way of shading paler skin is the way to shade all skin tones which isn't always accurate and can make darker skin look washed out!). I'm sure it'll make a big difference for other artists!
I was just about to make a similar comment. I really struggle with darker skin tones (lighter ones are still a little hard but not as much) and always ended up making them look "muddy". So happy to have him go through a good technique for making the dark colours as vibrant as they are.
@@ktmal1681 same here✌🏼
Yes I really appreciated this.
My eyes: This won’t be too hard
My brain: You got this
My hands: Oh no you don’t
No its not ur hands its ur art materials ;D
As someone with shaky hands, I feel that.
Okay with that you are so I have experience with you soon and write on the perfect for me I have to create the Perfect time working experience of my clients.
fantastic, draw me

Really appreciate the tutorial. Jazza is a really excellent teacher, and this is a side you don't see as much of in his art challenges. Definitely has me tempted to check out his skillshare classes.
And it's free. Always a plus.

Indeed.🙌

its fun to return to draw with jazza once in a while
Hey Jazza! You said you were feeling a bit disappointed that this video hasn't done as well according to RUclips analytics. I can get why that would be really bad and disheartening for a professional RUclipsr. But for the record, I got a lot of value from this video. I'm not an artist. I'm just someone who enjoys coloring for relaxation and therapeutic purposes. It's like meditation for anxious/high energy people. So it may as well look pretty when you're all done. I can't wait to (try to) apply some of techniques you've kindly shared with us. Thank you for all the love, passion, and hard word you consistently put into your content; regardless of the numbers. This is the RUclips I enjoy.
My thoughts exactly. It’s so sad that algorithms hide content like this. I’ve been a subscriber for years and I didn’t see that this video was up. I did see the next video suggested for me I watch. Probably because it’s about giveaways and such. So frustrating! I love content like this video. Jazza is a great and fun teacher!
Here’s to adding some comments to boost engagement and tell Jazza that this is content worth making.
100% agree.
I'm also someone who enjoys coloring but took my education into a biochemistry path and never got much of a technical art education so your color theory and blending advice is really interesting and (thankfully) easy to understand.
It is a shame how the algorithm controls what people engage with and then turns around and tells you that people aren't engaging with you. You do great videos and i subscribe to your channel for the tutorials and the "i've never done this before but lets fly by the seat of our pants and try it out" videos. Your positivity and enthusiasm are a bright spot on this platform.
Its already satisfying just watching
I agree 100% it was very direct and easy to understand, especially since I'm new to alcohol markers, it may not get as much traction thanks to algorithms but I'd argue it's more valuable and has replayability
I watched Sarah's video of her reviewing the pro artist box and she coloured the same drawing that jazza did this video. She did mention that she wanted to see how jazza would colour it. I was pleasantly surprised to see Jazza colour the same drawing (whether it be coincidental or on purpose) and I like comparing the tips that both artists gives. It was really fun to watch 😋🤞
Can you share the link?
I did a 3 year illustration degree, and I've learned more from Jazza's tutorials and skillshare than I ever did at university. He's an excellent teacher and I can't possibly not recommend taking his classes. We don't deserve Jazza, he's too good for us
I miss the times when I was a child and watched tutorials. It's how they taught me how to draw, people like marcrilley and yourself have inspired me
Yeah me to
Old vibes
I saw ya picture and thought it was a leotle hair on my phone i Tried to wipe it so hard 🤣
@Creating Comics lol
Marcrilley is still making tutorials aswell! Hes a legend of the RUclips art community and deserves much more recognition!
This has sooo many good tips in it!!
A question though: how do you add the tonal variation with the coloured pencils (or alcohol markers, if you're feeling daring, I guess), without making it confusing what the actual colour of the item is?
Having those colouring pages and seeing how you can just colour the whole area first without discrimination makes it less intimidating for me who always thinks too much before doing lol
There’s a lot of context involved. It sounds lame but it’s true. If you have a digital art program take the brightest rainbow of colors you can and paint over them all with a slightly transparent brown (like 92% opacity) You can still make out all the colors from context, despite them all now being technically brown. Once you make a “rule” (Jazz’s did shade warm with cool and vice versa) sticking with it usually implies color that isn’t really there.
We can all agree the dress in this video is blue, but the actual hue is closer to purple. The skin tone is green in some places. Our brains just assume the color based on the context of everything else.
1. dont use colour pencils over the entire area that needs to be shaded. leave a little but of "true" colour between shadows and highlights or hue shifts or whateevr you gonna do. every new layer of shade or hue is in a smaller area than before to create the gradient.
2. In between adding tonal variation in diferent areas or with different colours, Step back from your work, walk away for a few minutes and look again. The reason is, when you creating the piece, you know what the original colour is like, but the person who has never seen the initital phases but will see only the end result, doesnt know that.
Here is the thing tho, "blue" for example encopasses a huge area in the colour wheel/chart. If I presented a colour to you from any of those areas, you would call it blue. It is only when it is placed next to other shades do you start saying stuff like greenish-blue, reddish blue, its a bit more purple and all that.
What I am trying to say is, even with adding different colours lightly on top, your brain still forms a cohesive picture of blue. Because our brains are not trained to discern the truth but to make a seamless meaningful understanding of the world around us as is the most comfortable to us and our worldview. So that pure colour inbetween conveys that the piece is blue and brain interprets tonal variation accordingly. The gradient helps form connections between those colours for thar seamless transition and understanding. But artists, when making the piece, register different colours and that difference is more stark when you are too into the piece.
That is why sstepping back wil readjust your brain a little bit. This is more important in the beginning. After a while you get a feel for it but this is still a good practice. This is why most of my artwork is never made in one sitting. I make it in multiple small sittings. THis allows me to do larger artworks even with my constraint of time (because art is my hobby with an entire day job, house chores and other stuff), but also helps me identify and correct any mistakes I am making, I can learn a new technique in between if I need to do something and I dont know how and it constantly allows my brain to re-evaluate everything with a fresh set of eyes.
The thing that helps me is to remember that your mid tone is your true color, and the added colors you use for your shadows and highlights are meant to be subtle and just add a little bit of depth to your tones. The red Jazza shaded the dress with would look really wrong if he made it very saturated and heavy because it would start to cover the original blue and become too prominent, so he adds the red very lightly to make the shadows more of a purple so the original blue is still there and blends smoothly. Same for the yellow, you want there to be a hint of the blue blending into the light, but you don’t want the two colors to mix into a dark green and you don’t want the yellow to just be yellow and seem like a separate color on the dress, so lightly fading the two colors together helps the transition feel natural and make the yellow feel like light on a blue dress.
Short and simple answer: shade lightly over the base color by tilting the pencil, then add more layers until desired opacity is met
I really enjoyed this video and it makes me sad that it performed worst than your other videos, not only because this has great value, in general, but specially because you are really good at transmiting what you know. Considering that so much of your knowledge is empirical, it's really impressive! This deserves more love (part of the reason I'm commenting is to feed the algorithm gods). When (or if) I can afford a Skillshare subscription I WILL definitely be checking your classes on illustration and character design! Thank you for all the hard work, Jazza.
Yes, feed the algorithm gods so we can get more of this.
I hope this video goes absolutely HUGE because this was SO valuable for me! Thank you Jazza I really enjoyed this and learned a lot!!!
I am sure Jazza loves and appreciates your support Meredith as much as I hate life which is a lot
He does colors goodly
@@daninickel like Robert frost
I'm not an artist, I'm a crafter, but I would LOVE to see more videos like this on your channel every so often, it's really cool to see all the different tips and tricks. I understand that it's not getting as many views as your other videos, but it would still be nice to see more of.
Loved how we got to see just how deep a comprehensive understanding of colour and dimension can impact simple artwork
perfect! i always avoided coloring my drawings because i didn't understand how to blend colors correctly but this gives me a starting point, goint to try it!
The video is here guys!!! We really appreciate the tutorial. Some of us here maybe are just amateurs/beginners or experienced artists and we are so glad to have this opportunity to learn something like this and are able to improve the things we mostly have mistakes on when it is coming to coloring or other stuff. I hope you keep doing more stuff like this. You really help a lot of new beginners who just started liking art. I’m so happy that every time I watched your videos things would pop up like ideas or techniques on how I could improve my art. This video really really helps me a lot since I’m going to start on coloring but since I don’t have any materials I been only using basic crayola colored pencils. I hope one day I could have the materials and practice with it along my journey. BIG APPRECIATION FOR THIS VIDEO AND SPECIALLY JAZZA OF COURSE.
This video helped a lot. I’m still new to using alcohol base markers but with some guidance and remembering of how to properly layer, I’ll get there.
I feel you. Don't give up😍🤩
U can get there bro, U got it and I'm cheering for u!!!
Its super rare to c a positive comment on a art tutorial but u did it so Good Luck fellow artist.
I'm practicing digital color so I will get there too after I'm done with human anatomy only leg muscles are remaining I hope that u can get successful in whatever u are doing
I hate that this video isn't doing as well because i like being able to come to RUclips to learn and this is my favorite video of yours in a while because this is really solid information that I see really helping me with my art
Oh wow, finally some good old Draw with Jazza vibes. Haven't seen a tutorial in a long time here. I kinda miss the old days.
Yes 👆this!
The video worked perfectly.. this is what I was looking for to pull the trigger on buying the set for my daughter. She loves art and is far and away a thousand times better at it than I am but thankfully this video can show how the kit is different from the naffy Crayola sets and Poundland colours she has been using.
Thanks!! That's the first time I've seen the Gold and Chrome test sheet tutorials, very interesting. I will have to try that one. And the using blue on the skin tone for shadow, and red\pinks on the blue for shadows. And then showing why using the red + blue makes it darker not the same was something I never thought of before.
Things like this is why it's still great to have tutorials in 2021! ;)
Maybe have one tutorial like video a month might be helpful. Revisiting some of the older videos and showing any new tips and tricks with drawing people\animals\objects might be helpful! :D
My son (and I) love your channel. I'm teaching him there's more to colouring and drawing than plopping one colour on a piece of paper and calling it a day. Your channel helps so much. We're in self quarantine at the moment and we bought him and his sister a bunch of markers. He has his sketchbook, a pencil and eraser, his markers and now also my old pencils to use on top of the markers, "to make it look cool, like Jazza does it". Maybe one day we'll send you a picture of his art 😊
Had to come back to comment on this video after seeing Jazza's latest release. I really loved how much I learnt from this video, I've done a few art classes over the years but this is one of the best! I enjoy the way you make art fun and teach at the same time :) thanks Jazza sharing your world with us
Never had the patience/time for coloring but I'm watching this whole video and commenting to appease the algorithm and show there are still those of us who appreciate art more than gimmicks and giveaways.
Wow! I have watched many art tutorials but a art tutorial by a legend is seriously just amazing waiting for more art tutorial from you Jazza!
You gotta check you his earlier videos! They're all amazing tutorials
@@lottabubbles1596 :)
I've been an artist for decades and the way you just described your color choices for shading and highlighting was so eye opening and it really clicked! I know it's going to take my work to a new level. Thank you so much! To teach something so complicated in just a few minutes and make it seem easy is a whole other skill on its own!
aah you make blending look so easy- no matter what, I can never seem to hide the streaky lines when I colour with markers! I never really grasped how to "push and pull" the layers like you have shown here, so thank you for making a tutorial on this, I'm going to try these tips out now
All these years later, all the videos of yours I’ve watched…LOVE that you can drop knowledge and skills on all of us! The blue to yellow tip! Loved it! Love your videos as always
The color theory bit at the end was good. I do a lot of “shading with colors” with my students, maybe I should do a video. Always enjoy your content! 🎨
Right off the bat, the snark alone made me glad I clicked on this video. Your recent art culture videos have made me decide to go back and watch and like all of your videos I haven't seen yet because we have to do our part to keep quality content alive and thriving and not get lost in the cringey, sell-out landscape of current art RUclips
WAHHHH, this is the push I needed to continue drawing. It’s been a while since I’ve done so but thanks for your tips Jazza! It’s helped a lot!
ok, this is it. today is the day. i will draw again. every time i watch jazza, i feel encouraged. so today i will do it.
I envy and admire Jazza at the same time.
I wish I was such a good artist like him
You can,just do like Jazza did and keep at it. 👍🏻👍🏻
I love when you teach techniques. I know it kind of bores you, but those are my favorite videos to go back to watch over and over.
Great tutorial awesome markers👍
These videos are my favorite - seeing you break down how you use color makes it so much easier to visualize. Not getting the views is an actual crime, this is easily one of the best tutorials out there
ahhh a return to roots. really nice to see a tutorial again from you! and it's also really neat to see just how far your art has come; i know you do a lot of gimmick videos now, but as demonstrated in this video, your use of color, shading, and contrasts has become a lot better since you originally started. i know your youtube isn't what you thought it would be, but hopefully you still have fun and hopefully you can also see just how much your art has grown since then!!
I am so happy you made this tutorial Jazza!!! I know you said RUclips doesn't really reward these kinds of videos but its still nice to see and are in fact useful. We are also happy because, despite you having tutorials from earlier in the channel, we still like to see your new techniques or different style coming through in newer content to see the contrast between your older videos and now.
So good to see Jazza posting amazing videos so frequently! I can’t wait to watch this video again and follow along when my Pro Artist Series Box comes!
Don't let the RUclips algorithm stop you from making amazing tutorials, These tutorials is what got me into following you in the beginning. Not everyone hear wants to see clickbait garbage. Keep killing it.
My God finally a tutorial 🙌 ❤
Thank you so much Jazza!
This kind of video is why I found you all those years ago & why I subscribed. When it was just you & Mrs. Jazza in your 1st studio. It was so amazing to watch you & your family grow. I miss this kind of stuff.
hey Jazza! i really enjoyed this video! in fact i liked it so much i would love to watch another tutorial. about making fabric folds. as an artist that’s one of the hardest things to come over. just a recommendation from me. keep up the amazing work!
This was like a blast from the past. Hell jazza’s old RUclips tutorials was what got me more heavily into art when I was in middle school, and now I’m a freshman art major in college, already building my art career and I owe a lot of it to RUclips tutorials from those years ago
Eyy he came through with the coloring video! this is awesome! and I love the box, it's so amazing!
I found your old tutorials in 2015/2016 while sketching in my grandma's living room. Crazy how long it's been, and how much both your channel and my own art have changed. I'm still subbed for a reason, but it's nice to come back to this after so long. :]
That was a great tutorial, Jazza. I really enjoyed watching it. It‘s odd how things change. There was a time where everyone was making tutorials and now it’s rare to see anyone make them anymore.
I know YT doesn't really let you make this content anymore so I really appreciate this video. I still love tutorial style vids :)
I got myself a box as a Christmas present for myself...I have felt kinda lost until now about trying alcohol based markers, let alone choosing pencils to go with said markers. But this felt like a good box to start with. :)
Solid tutorial! Even if the algorithm doesn't support this content, we super appreciate it. Your enthusiasm has really helped me just jump in and try things to see how they turn out and have fun doing it!
I have to say I like ur foolish content but I'd like to see more of this type of content too. This actually sparkt my intrest on drawing again
I’m so happy to see a tutorial from you again and about colouring of all things which is my favourite part of the art process! Your help is incredibly appreciated and your passion to grow the Arty Party is really admirable. Thank you for all that you do whether it’s tutorials like this or charming entertainment :)
This was a really fun & informative video. Really appreciate you going through these steps in depth. It's really cool seeing and learning about the different ways in which colour can be used to bring an artwork to life and make a good piece of art into a great one.
pretty sure I will end up watching this video a thousand times (or more)! Thanks so much Jazza.. much appreciated tutorial
Hey it’s 2021 Mr Jazza. The internet is showing us ANYTHING is possible.
… so thank you mr!
I loved your painstaking test sheets. Can you show us the steps before? How you chose the right colours… even if they fail to achieve the right hues. I feel we’re starting at step 4 or 5… I’m happier with step 6 onwards… but those opening steps worry me still. Tangerine for gold? How did you get there? I’m a lady who currently just layers (PROMARKER) Oatmeal for a skin tone… and can’t quite make the jump you’re promoting.
Yeah, RUclips is school now. "I got my PhD from RUclips University!" Hahaha!!
Color theory is so intreating. Learning the difference between tones, tints, shades and hues is a game changer and the use of a complimentary colors for your shadows to cancel out the other color.
You should 3D print tiny characters and use them as chess pieces, paint them, and them use them to play a chess match with your wife to see who’s smarter.
Lowkey he already does it...WH40k ain't chess, but still wargame.
i would love to do this, sadly nobody i know actually knows how to play chess properly, so i at least have 1 thing up on them as i am not very good at chess XD.
I really appreciated this! I got the kit for Christmas and just finished following this video to color my first piece from it! It actually made things doable, turned out pretty well, and made me excited to do more. Thanks!
Loved this tutorial, perfectly laid out, and easy to follow. Definitely know what I’m going to do on my weekend off haha 👍🏼 thank you Jazza ❤️
You have no idea how much learning water colors and pencils and markers and gouache and oil helped me with my miniature painting. I think trying new mediums can help you grow in leaps and bounds in your preferred medium. Such a great tutorial and an amazing set for people who want to dip their toes into something new in one box!
RUclips is VERY MUCH a platform for Tutorials. In fact, it is the second most used search engine in the world. Hell, there's even a "How to" category! Don't tell me the algorithm doesn't support/ promote tutorials.
Ive been following you for YEARS and it’s been really amazing to watch you grow.. I really hope you know how amazing of an artist you truly are!🥰 thank you for continuing to inspire all of us and not losing yourself in the process. You undoubtedly deserve much more exposure.
One question that I really struggle: What to do with the background so the actual image gets the value it need? Any tips for that?
Always work out the colours of your background first. That way you can tie in the colours of your main subject a lot better with some of the ideas Jazza mentioned. I recommend looking into environment composition techniques. This might help with a better understanding of the values you might need to consider for the final render of your image. Best wishes
@@loopyloki9864 I've been trying to get these holo-illuminating effects for the background. Trying to avoid landscapes and strucktures. Just so I wouldn't mess up the perspective of the image 😉
I actually went to college for art and I still really enjoy watching art tutorials. It’s fun to see other artists work and any techniques I might not know.

@@collier6725 Haha IKR
Oke
@Jazza - Make this a regular thing. The world needs more of your honest, easy to follow, instructional content. Thank you for all you do!
Honestly, I've missed the tutorial style art videos. My wife has bought me pro artist series box for Christmas (she's not great at keeping secrets) and I'm not a particularly good or talented artist, so these sorts of videos are really useful and interesting for me, especially the colour theory stuff at the end with the shadows. Thanks Jazza for the content!!!
I know this type of tutorial take is not what is 'popular' on RUclips anymore, but thank you for persevering with them. Even if it's only an occasional video, it is still greatly appreciated. There are still viewers on the platform that like to learn and find tutorial content interesting and entertaining even though RUclips algorithms discourage it. I know, there are other platforms that are more about the learning content, but they are not all as readily accessible. So... Thanks Jazza.
This was so helpful! I appreciate you continuing to help people learn even when the algorithm doesn't appreciate you for doing that.
Jazza I heard this video did not do as good as you hoped, but I would definitely love to see more of this kind of videos!
I got my wife your pro artist box for Christmas and she loves it. Thank you for making this video. It went a long way in helping us understand how to use markers better. I would love more content like this.
Favourite video of the last few months!
It actually got me thinking "man, it's been some time since I last drew" and actually gave me te itch to do it, so thank you. honestly.
I saw you mention this video in your 'exposing customizing expensive things' video and I was delighted to hear you made a tutorial! Art tutorials can so hard to find in good quality, and yet this breaks things down and simplifies them so well! And seeing it in simple shapes first helps so much. I might have to incorporate that into my own process, to help with blends and color choices! Even if these videos don't do quite as well, they're still an invaluable resource to any artist looking for tips, and I appreciate it tremendously!
It's been so long since I've seen one of Jazza's tutorials, I forgot how good of a teacher he is when it comes to this stuff.
It sucks that this video isn't being pushed by the algorithm and getting the traction it deserves, it's amazing.
I literally came to watch this bc jazza said it didn't do well in the newest video... Sadly view wise hes right but I really miss this version of RUclips art!!! This is exactly the content I've been hunting for for days now
Omg. You are truely a person of substance through and through from the beginning. Your OCs have always been multi skintoned and you didn't disappoint by reflecting this in your box and demonstration. CANT WAIT FOR MY BOXES TO ARRIVE!
Commenting because F the algorithm!! You rock friend !
Jazza please don't ever stop making amazing tutorials. I have learned so much from you. You are inspire me to make more art and try new things.
So Nice to see this sort of video again!
This makes so much more sense to me! I’m 28 and I’ve always thought, man coloring is SO much more complicated than it was back in the kiddo years. But this just really clicked with my brain of how shading and blending work and just unlocked a whole new door for me. Now I’m gonna go try it out. Thanks so much Jazza! 😊 This really helped me out!
This was a great instructional video to watch! I love it because I too generally avoid black for shading, especially skin, and lean into darker blue and purples, lightening outward toward the reds, pinks, oranges, yellows, and sometimes greens. Contrast in color is one of my favorite things to work with because it creates some amazing effects.
Using complimentary colors to achieve shadows is fantastic. I use that technique all the time as a scenic artist to darken paint without making it look desaturated by adding black.
i missed videos like this. i got a lot of my drawing skills actually taught by jazza and i’m so full of joy seeing a tutorial from him again. so we’ll done and explained. (i usually don’t comment but i hope this helps the video)
Yes, feeding the algorithm. I’ll probably go back and watch some of his early videos.
I…. Did not really understand how these markers worked and I have AN ART DEGREE YA’LL. Wow. Um. Well, I learned something today and I tried out some stuff with my markers that I never use and I am blown away.
Thank you for making this, Jazza! We can always learn something new!
This channel is the only art channel that makes me want to color my drawings instead of keeping it black and white, thank you. You also inspired me to get alcohol markers, so thank you for this helpful info. Sadly i am not getting ur bundle because its too pricy. Thank you for the tutorial though
Actually got nostalgic watching this video, because I remember when tutorials like this were all we got from this channel and how I made sure I didn't miss a single one of his videos. Sure, now it's got a lot more content variety and I'm not saying necessarily "it was better before", I just remembered what it felt like to get my first glimps into art making thanks to his tutorials and how eager I was to get my hands on the sacred ALCOHOL BASED MARKERS. Back then I didn't even draw at all myself, but I clearly remember how amazed I was by his art and his energy and how it made me want to learn more about it and maybe eventually try it myself. I really do at least partially owe it to him and these kind of videos if making art is one of my main hobbies now. I don't really know where I was going with this comment, but I guess all I wanted to say was thank you for making art and inspiring people and for this really nice dive into the past💓
I told myself to improve my art skills this year.
And while I suck at drawing things, I love coloring, so this really helps
These are my favorite sorts of videos! The way he uses the colors looks amazing! I love seeing the color swatches! Being so clearly labeled was fantastic too! Initially seeing it makes me feel like it would be too hard to even attempt, but the explanation and demonstrations are clear enough that I felt inclined to try coloring along while watching! Mine are not nearly that nice, but it's a huge improvement. This was a lot of fun and really was a great start to my day!
I've been watching you for a few years now and over the last few videos I am really blown away by how much your coloring improved. Everything looks so vibrant, lively and interesting. Also great and entertaining tutorial, the acrylic alien made me smile
This is actually a really clear and helpful tutorial. I always draw with just lead pencil because I have no idea how to do colour theory, so hopefully this tutorial helps me become better in some way. Thanks a lot Jazza.
This video is amazing. I'm not an artist and somehow I was hooked from start to finish. I love that you included diverse skintones and that even while compressing the video to be short, you included lots of amazing advice and art tips.
Been here since the beginning of the channel, so happy to see this type of thing return. Even if it’s just a rarity. My daughter (9) loves your content, especially if she learns something new. Thanks for giving us content to watch together over the years!
Jazza, this video is AMAZING. As an artist in training, every scrap of knowledge people more talented than me can impart is valuable. I know it didn't do well according to the algorithm, but it's been a major help to watch.
that blue to yellow trick!!! that's actually so useful mannn i'm nostalgic about the old days of jazza tutorials
Thank you so much for doing this! I love seeing practical knowledge in action, and this is so useful for where I'm at in my art journey. I was also on the fence about buying your art collection, but after seeing it in action in such a beautiful piece it made the choice easy. I also absolutely love seeing tutorials from you again, and I'll be using that red shading blues trick in my own art!
We need more videos like this. Colour is soo hard to work with. This is a great video that shows it's not as complex as we think it is. Definitely will give it a try. I often resort to using pencils, graphite and lots of smudging for blending with dry media. Jazza can you do a video on colouring or shading with monotones?
I hate the fact that RUclips discourages these types of videos
I am soo disappointed that RUclips didn't recommend the video to me
I haven't been the most actively commenting viewer for the 5 years I've been watching, but i write this in hopes that RUclips Recommends more of these videos from jazza (and others) cuz jazza is carrying the age of art RUclips that i am most attached to and love.
Really enjoy the “nostalgia” in this tutorial!! I know RUclips has changed and these don’t park well on the algorithm, but I LOVE IT!!! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!! I bought myself that kit for my early birthday present so I can’t wait to sit down to the art desk and try out these techniques on the queen drawing.
