I'm a licensed Nail Tech but in the middle of a career change. I want so desperately to learn to tattoo but I always told myself that I wasn't a great pencil-to-paper artist.Last night, while watching this tutorial I was finally able to draw something that I was proud of for the first time in a long time. Thank you for giving me that.

[@thomaslovey8198]

I was a trash artist and i'm getting into it now after tons of practicing, videos, and tips from artists while getting tattoos you could definitely do it. just put the time in, its always possible

[@darthtechnologies553]

Take life drawing classes. Buy a light board and flip your drawings over and redrawn on new paper. You will see your errors and improve.

[@jessejames1508]

“You just want everything to be so perfect and then you ruin it” truer words have never been spoken. I feel that deep

[@DarkForcesStudio]

Drawing freehand is infinitely more satisfying than templates. Every line is yours. These are great tutorials. Thanks.

[@kogaryu]

I've watched this video about 40 times. I've drawn about 100 peonies. Thanks Chris

[@El_hombre1965]

Like an old school rose, when you get the middle done right, the rest kind of just follow, love it.

[@emilwestgaardhenriksen1715]

I thought the exact same thing through this whole video! Drew a lot of old school roses some years back for friends and stuff and this reminded me so much of that 😂

[@AidaBBBBB]

I just followed this tutorial fast and loose like he said and it’s the best flower I’ve ever sketched. I want to be Chris’s apprentice🌸. By the way if you want good references of Chris’s work then buy his coloring books. Color Odyssey has a lot of different flowers in it 🌺🌹🌼

[@MambusBambus]

great video & explanation. Thanks alot !
especially the part “you try so hard to make it look perfect, that you ruin it.” hit me directly in the heart.. the advice to loosen it up is pure gold 🧡

[@Leksilou]

I could watch this for HOURS, so satisfying and beautiful. My favorite flower!

[@saharovska]

I love your confident lines and how easy your hand moves

[@TeezyTattoos]

I watched this 3 years ago and I’m in shock how much info I missed, just going to watch this every day like a ritual before I draw. So good 😊

[@1grumppa]

I have never been able to make a Peony look even close to the one I just did following this tutorial. Thank you so much!

[@guitardude8179]

I’ve always wanted to be able to draw like Chris, finally got back into it recently, not the same style but the inspiration is real watching another lefty work!

[@Ztawh]

Hey Chris! Why don't you start your own RUclips channel with art tutorials? Would follow! 😊🙏🏻❤️

You commented on a tutorial video for him to do tutorial videos 🤔🤣

[@puntos4346]

@@cesar_yf2637 Yes, but this is not his page... She wanted him to start his own RUclips channel to do tutorials

[@SkrypNYak]

for many years following your work 💥 TOP ARTIST

[@FallenAngel482]

I followed this tutorial and the drawing came out great. Could you please do another peony tutorial but step by step

[@bowley4]

I watched this and literally it unlocked peonies in my brain... all of a sudden they’re super easy now! So so cool!!!

[@Leo-V]

A master of our time appreciate Garver talent and skill.

[@goatmanindustries7182]

Love seeing more left handed artist. Thank you for this content. Very insightful and informative.

[@fultonsingasong9100]

[@jannielmorningstar4272]

I would watch a million Garver's drawing tutorials

[@helionopolis4337]

Excellent comment you deserve more likes

[@TheJasonmoretti]

Thanks to these tutorials there’s a bunch of people drawing everything sideways😂 in all seriousness it’s really cool to see somebody who knows what they’re doing’s approach.

[@jasperatymrochwite7275]

I love that you make changes as seen fit while inking it. A lot of times we focus on the lines themselves too much and it looks too…..flat.

[@Blahndle]

Thanks for doing these videos! I love how fluffy your peonies are, great tutorial :)

[@ghiblilove86]

I love peonies but really like camellia/tsubaki flowers. Mr Garver, always a pleasure to see your work xx

[@erkydi]

thanks for guiding and helping me pick back up sketching , its so fun and relaxing

[@umeed9636]

your style is awesome

[@JM-eb8cp]

Hace mas de 15 años lo mire hacer esto en tv y fue mi primer motivación a dibujar, le tomaba fotos ala televisión a todo el proceso del tatuaje y despues los dibujaba 😂

[@saoriplaystv7898]

thanks for this tutorial. I like how you drew the peonies.

[@ZKorvin]

Hell yeah! Garver rules!

[@evilskwerl]

I hope you continue this series or maybe even do your own channel. This is super therapeutic for some reason

[@cynthiasamson8830]

That's so pretty and much easier way of sketching a peony flower.. Thank you so much for sharing this video.. I have learned a technique from you Chris.. I can now draw or paint a peony.. ❤️

[@Tattoodo]

Thank you so much 😀

[@paulrodriguez1932]

Masterclass, now I have my mind blown and my belly is full of insecurities 😂
Best way to motivate people to better themselves 👍

[@fps_d0ge690]

Amazing tutorial man. I’m actually in the early stages of my apprenticeship right now and tutorials like this are so helpful. Any chance on making a video on finger waves? And other Japanese material?

[@arvinordonio6970]

Thanks a lot, I really do like how to learn to draw tattoo design and because of you it is starting to making that happen

[@jennifercleveland5415]

So beautiful, you make it look so effortless.

[@sandraarnaut2544]

Je suis très impressionné, je dessine mais j’ai jamais eu de cours d’art. Mais j’aime bien dessiner et là je suis vraiment impressionné comme il dessine bien et de vitesse. Entre guillemets la vitesse mais avec tellement d’amour et… Fantastique merci de montrer votre vidéo et de bien expliquer les choses c’est impressionnant merci beaucoup Sandra Arnaut

Thanks Chris! Peonies are quite frendly) I finnaly started to appreciate the A3 format. Seems to give much freedom than A4 to draw and scetch! Going to buy one)

[@jadedenthusiasms]

So beautiful!!

[@andywhos]

Thanks Chris

[@malsoma4530]

Thank you sir for teaching

[@staceiiOMgee77]

1st sketch didn’t turn out so bad considering I’m use to fine drawing EVERYTHING. But I did this pretty quickly and simply enough. Wish they let me show it. My flipped peddles could use work. You make it look effortless💙

[@ashleyr3776]

This is awesome! Gonna try this for an upcoming tattoo ✨

ver dibujar a un tatuador es muy interesante!!😯👌👌

[@Kohaku42069]

i think in order to be less stiff, you need to build confidence. learning form and how shapes interact with each other can help with that

[@jomarfelisilda9679]

damn . thats a great tutorial.
