👽💚
here before you blow up.
The amount of times I blew my screen cause I thought there was an eyelash on it. 💀
Moonlight??? The TASTE jumped out. Kudos!
paused at 1:14 when i saw that ripped up transfer and had to figure out whether or not you were actually from toronto, and then noticed the giant AGO ticket in the top right corner lol
congrats on calarts!! love seeing talented people from my city
I miss Toronto so much! I'm excited for you at Ryerson - tons of creative people there :^)
@@lemoncholy I actually dropped out a few years ago and transferred to waterloo chemistry LOL but thank you! wishing you all the best
* Me, a literal high school freshman, taking notes *
Yeah I’m literally in 7th grade and starting my portfolio lol
Well…did u get in / apply.?
I dont think they even graduated yet
How’s it going
such an inspiring artist IMAGINE having that kinda skill
I would totally buy that sketchbook if it was for sale it’s so pretty 😅
for how much? jk, thanks!
played at 0.25 speed because it‘s so good
This was absolutely amazing, this notebook told a whole story about what you live around, who you live with, the way you shade, the way you draw, and so much more. I would love to see if you would explain your process of making this. I hope you have a wonderful day. Your such a amazing artist and I hope I can be as good as you some day. Your amazing, and so is your art. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Your interpretation of world and skills are just stunning!
A bit late but still, congratulations!!
i noticed youre from toronto. why havent you considered going to OCAD or Sheridan for animation? or even emily carr? love the sketchbook. stunning skills and story telling
A good question. I've always wanted to go into animation so I applied to Sheridan in addition to CalArts. I considered OCAD, but their animation program was too experimental for my liking. My time was also limited and I needed to make hard decisions about which schools I should/shouldn't apply to.
In the end, I had to choose between Sheridan and CalArts, and although the former is a great program, much cheaper, and will find you a job, I was drawn to CalArts because of the people who go there. A large number of artists I admire go to that school and I want to constantly be challenged by them. I would also say that CalArts is more experimental in their approach to style, which is certainly helped by the sense of unity between programs that encourages collaboration. Of course, I had many other reasons too (location, the fact that you have to make 4 films at CalArts instead of 2 at Sheridan, etc.), but I could go on forever.
I'll never truly know what Sheridan is like, but so far I'm loving it here :)
1:12 oh my god you drew momo's???????? AND MR TIRONE'S BALD SPOT??? ICON
how could I NOT draw momo's or his bald spot? they were the HIGHLIGHTS of my high school career
This is the most amazing art I have ever seen, no wonder you got accepted!
how old are you???? this is the best sketchbook ive ever seen
graduating high school this year!
:0 you're graduating high school? Me too ...so jelly of your art skills,,, I want to go to art school too because of my passion for art and animation since childhood, but now I'm considering literature cause I feel I'm really crap at art 😅

@@lemoncholy
It’s not really animal skin though is it??
EEEEK A FELLOW TORONTONIAN GETTING IN IS SO INSPIRING
please makes more yt videos they are amazing
Hello! I was wondering what the portfolio process was like for you? And what inspired you in your subject matter. I am thinking of applying but I just don’t know what my portfolio needs
Hey!
As simple as it sounds, my daily life inspired by subject matter. Because your ability to draw from observation matters a ton in your CalArts portfolio, I would draw anything interesting I saw around me wherever I went (these included people, animals, and environment). Anytime I'd draw, I'd ask myself: what story do I want to tell? what mood/atmosphere do I want to express? I think focusing on story is crucial to your work, because it's what film is - using character, motion, timing, lighting, colours, and dialogue to convey a story.
Also, I haven't done it well in my sketchbook, but what you could do next is transform your observational work - this is what I mean: images.app.goo.gl/tv3SP8Gr2tBdyi3r6. Essentially, the artist has used observations from real life to influence their designs. This shows them your creativity and your investigative abilities.
The character animation portfolio requirements on the CalArts website are pretty broad, but for a reason. They just want to see who you are as an artist, and your interests will be shown by the direction you take.
In terms of process, I started building my portfolio ~7 months before it was due, but it proved to be not enough time for me to complete it without spending every waking hour over the winter break cramming sketchbook work. I had a pretty intensive gr. 12 year (take into account balancing school work + extracurriculars + college apps), so timelines may be different for you. Though I "started" by portfolio 7 months before the deadline, I started building up my life drawing skills long before then. I took life drawing classes to help me prepare in previous years.
I can't tell you how many times I've felt insecure with my own art especially when I looked at other people's work, how many sketchbook pages I covered up and restarted, but overall, the process was still rewarding because by the end, I could see real improvement.
Hope that helps, and good luck!
lemoncholy WOW! I can’t thank you enough for this detailed response, so grateful that you took the time of day. I am not so sure I have the skills yet with digital to apply for cal arts, or the budget to be honest. But I would LOVE to get into risd. I just feel so insecure about my portfolio I honestly don’t know what to do about it aside from keep pushing through. I am in the summer before my senior year, and I may take a gap year to give myself more time. Do you have any links to your portfolio, or tips on how to get started with digital works.
@@ang1692 yeah it's tough and tuition is a bit of a nightmare! I haven't published my CalArts portfolio online (if you haven't already you can view the RISD one on my channel), but a simple web search should get you many varied examples. As for how to get started with digital works, I would recommend following accounts on social media that inspire you, and attempting to recreate their work (you'll notice a lot more details). Also, there are tons of tutorials online, and it's nice to see how artists get from sketch -> finished product.
It's not always about the program or the brushes you use, but good programs and good brushes will make it easier for you to draw what you envision. I guess before you get carried away with downloading the best brushes, try to create art using only the default brush on your program - you'll learn important things about colours, blending, and texture that'll inform you where your skills are lacking + what brushes you should look for.
And yes, keep pushing through! It's the only way you get better. I'm rootin for ya :D
omg this is amazing!! Your work is amazing, i'm amazed ahahah Thank you for sharing this, loved your very short film "Enemy"! Can't wait to see more of your future creations :D
wow what more could they even teach you
yes.
thank.
Hi, this is amazing! What is the name of this sketchbook by the way?
It's a Moleskine sketchbook (A4 size, hardcover)! Thanks for the kind words :)
I love your channel so much 💕 and your use of colours is bomb
is this one of those big sketchbooks (your hand being shown once made it seem huge) or was that just the angle?
sorry for the late reply! this sketchbook was A4 size - not small but not huge.
lovelyyy use of color :))
simply amazing and inspiring at the same time
What types of color do you use in the sketchbook?
watercolour, gouache, some acrylic, prismacolor scholar colour pencils, cheap markers, construction paper - basically anything I can get my hands on
Omg ur so amazing!! How long did the sketchbook take to get finished?
Thank you! I started late July and I finished it right when it was due (late December), but I didn't draw everyday.
omg I loved the moonlight page, you are so talented
Can I have it????😁
so talented!!!
wow wow wow wowow wow wow Wow
You are AMAZING! Please post drawing videos on your channel :( they are pretty
so beautiful and colorful. it's such a dream to look at. i hope that my art will get to this level someday
amazing
Hi! If you don't mind me asking, what sketchbook brand and size do you use?
hello! this one was a A4 sized Moleskine
I love your work. You are so talented.
What ab awesome sketchbook !! great art !!
If I'll be turning 15 in 2 months and I'll have to apply to art school when I'm 17, right now my drawings are okay but nowhere near this, I always get like B- in art class but my drawings I do at home are a little bit better, could I (realistically) get good enough at drawing to be accepted at an art school? (Just asking because I would really really love to do that, but I'm really not sure if I could possibly become good enough)
There are tons of art schools out there, all with different standards + who look for different kinds of people. I'm sure you'd be able to. But, you'd be amazed by how much you can improve in the span of 2 years (so long as you're diligent and keep practicing) - I've seen some of my own classmates do it. Best of luck!
@@lemoncholy okay thank you! ^^
THIS IS SO UNDERRATED AND INSANELY PRETTY WHAT I-
This is probably an old video so you won't reply but what size sketchbook did you use?
(Based on the comment of the creator) It's a moleskin, and from the looks of it, more than likely an A5.
@@lunayen thank you so much!
Amazing, pls post more art videos
I love this :D
Hooray accepted sketches

ur sketchbook is amazing! im always watching sketchbook tours on youtube but this is by far the best and my favourite 😍❤️ would love to see a video on a sketchbook entry to see the process ❤️
i'll keep that in mind, thanks for the idea + the kind words!
so nice pieces you have here!, love them, also, can we get to know with pens do you use to outline them?
If I remember correctly, I mostly used Sakura Pigma Microns. Thanks for the kind words!
@@lemoncholy Thanks a Lot, i have tried a lot of pens/fineliners but all of them seems to bleed a lot.
U R incredibly talented

YDJDGDHD YOU ARE SO TALENTED
What pencils do you use?
Inês Teixeira usually staedler or mechanical pencils from the dollar store. if you mean colour pencils: prismacolor scholar
your art is so amazing!
So cool
How's school?
Everything has changed now because of the pandemic. But it was really fun while it lasted. Thanks for taking the time to ask :)

I’d feel majorly ripped off and want my money back if I was in college when this crap was foisted on the world.
