cant draw eyes? cover with hair.
cant draw face? cover with hair.
cant draw body? cover with hair.
cant draw? cover with hair.
cant draw hair?
cant draw
this is accurate
cant draw hair? use your hair.
dont have hair? get hair... by force
I draw hair covering face in the most suffocating way possible. Normally it usually when I'm in the dark side and need to chill my head. Drawing hairs calms me.
Conclusion : Draw a Yeti
cant get hair? buy a wig.
cant buy a wig? get a job
cant get a job? go to school
cant go to school? get a job

Covering the whole face with hair was funny though

I wish all artists who offer "just draw" as advice a very 7-month-art-block
Just ink lol
The people who are asking for advice should also be more specific on what part of drawing they want to improve. If you ask a vague question, expect a vague answer.
I like that idea mixed with the list of songs to help with ideas and art blocks, but not to improve drawing techniques. Is a very different issue.
Sometimes the person isn't lazy, but they genuinely don't know what to say since for them was really a "just draw". I used to be that person, and I only realized how vague was my answer when I started watching tutorials for myself.
_AND_ going through a lot of stuff
“How to draw a pretty boy”
1.just draw it.
lmaoo...how to draw a pretty boy
become one
As someone who draws a lot of pretty boys....
Yeah just draw it. Prettiness is subjective.
Ikr, so easy!!!!
Just make him pretty bruh smh
Just draw a boy with a feminine body! A.k.a femboy!
Jk, don't kill me-
Can't draw eyes? Nose? mouth? Just draw h3ntai protagonist where hair always cover their faces.
😃Lmaooo faxxxx

@@WildArtistsl ikr? XD
My tip; don’t rely on materials to think it’ll improve your art style. The quote “use whatever stuff is available in front of you is enough” so a pen, pencil, eraser, paper will work. I’ve learned this lesson 2 years ago when I asked myself “am I to flex, or am I to draw?” It was a waste of money. Sure my mother is very supportive about it and wants me to experience new stuff, but I’m still young and learning from my current state hence why buying shit ton of pens that are the same size but different brands or immediately moving from lineart to painting in a week will be a difficult. Back then, my mindset was just following what other artists own and think “oh if I own this, I will possess his style!” Nah, I was just wasting shit. So learn from my mistakes and study first before buying high quality materials
this tip is helpful, but you have to realize that a lot of cheap art supplies might cao your skill level since they will not allow you to do some things that you might want to do, you still need good art supplies, but only to extend your skill cap, not to actually improve
@@harrietjameson yes, decent, cheap, but very good stuff. But buying a ton or buying specific stuff from other artists like “*gasp* I need this mechanical pencil so that I can draw like him!” is going too far imo
I think this is just generally helpful advice, not just for art specifically.
The only thing that i bought that helped me a lot was a mechanical pencil,thats it and i improved by a mile.
I have fallen into stuff like this. But I have recently started going back to drawing with a pen and paper. (I’ve only ever really improved monumentally with that)I tried getting my friend who wants to be an artist to do the same. But they wouldn’t listen. They wanted to wait to get new materials. I can’t really argue too much on this one because I have more materials than them.
Drawing more detailed teeth on a character can look weird really fast depending on the art style.
true
Whenever I draw detailed teeth it makes it look like the character has a gap even if the teeth are close together
Considering Sonic is my art style yes detailed teeth would look weird
for me, when im doing a smile that shows teeth, i just put two lines on the sides to show canines
I only do detailed teeth when I want to convey an uncomfortable feeling to the viewer, I mean, It works
For fanartists there's two solid ways to get better:
1) becoming obsessed with a certain character
2) out of spite. Spite is a great motivator bc if ppl hate what you do, just make more to piss them off.
(of course that's a slightly satirical comment, only the first option has a real life applicable value)
Ngl spite makes up a full 80% of my motivation at this point. It's very potent lmao. Will recommend 10/10.
Wow then I somehow did the first one long time. Where my most favorite character to draw was always Sasuke Uchiha since I looooooooooooooved drawing his duckbutt hair and it reminded me of how I drew the same photo of him 2 times in one year but months apart and the second photo showed my improvements! I sadly don't draw a lot like I used to but I think maybe I'll try drawing again
* me drawing a ship just to post it to pinterest and laugh at their "disgust" *
NAHHH I DID THE FIRST OPTION ALREADY- *10/10 would recommend-*
Jesus christ, the first one was me with Inuyasha when I was 14. Also with Gengar. And Axel from Kingdom Hearts. And my FE Awakening OCs.

"Don't just draw, draw a lot!"
I once follow that advice, but I didn't improve. The only thing I gained from that tip was an art block...
I got rsi trying to follow the "draw a lot/every day" advise so now i cant draw often (like once a week maybe)
yeah no this advice sucks
even if you draw a lot, it doesn't mean you'll improve without doing anything else.
Color theory, anatomy, new art styles, inspiration come from many other things !
By drawing a lot, sure, you'll be able to do something better and quicker, but it's never gonna improve the way you create other things/subjects.
I’m still drawing every day but I wouldn’t recommend it , I say just study alot study like a med student then analyze what your lacking , for art block I just keep a list for characters on hand to draw when I don’t have motivation
"Don't draw big anime eyes"
Me drawing eyes for half the head: i'm gonna pretend I didn't see that
Me also drawing big eyes: no ❤️
Your pfp explains it all
@@jaslikeart 😳
Big eyes gang we gotta unite🤝🤝
Large Eyes Gang (L.E.G.) is going to arrive soon
As someone who does traditional art (pen and paper), the 'flip the model and erase the inside' tip from the beginning is absolute Hell
I was never in my life thinking about doing this thing, so weird idea!
Same. I've found that a lot of these types of videos tend to focus on digital art, which isn't a bad thing (as long as the tips make sense and they don't say anything weird, wrong, or pointlessly vague), but it's annoying bc I can't just add a layer and change the opacity or something.
Just use a ruler and identify where the height of your art and the size as well
Use a mirror
Hmm while this may not be the best tip but for height matching maybe draw lines from the front view to where you want the back view to be that way you can match at least the height of the drawing
The 11:30 tip remembered a tip that gave me one of my teachers that said something like "When you ran out of ideas is when you are the most creative" and then proceeded to gave us for homework a freaking 150 symbols ideas only using a square with a circle and some triangles inside of it! I wanted to cry when I couldn't pass from 100. Worst tip EVER!
lmaoo honestly it's so pointless drawing aimlessly. if there is no end goal or reason for even making a drawing the results always come out badly, it just doesn't work that way i found
I feel like I kinda get what she was going for, but 150 symbols is WAY too much 😕
Reminds me of my metals and jewelry course. Had to do fifty topics/word associations we DO like and another fifty that we don't.
Then, each category had to have at least 10-15 designs drawn for them.
This was the first assignment.
I dropped the class immediately
heres the best advice i'vee ever gotten for art
NEVER throw away art. don't compare to other artists, compare yourself to what you used to make. look for things in ur old art that you have improved at, and things that have stayed the same. and don't be afraid of criticism. you should always strive to improve as an atrist
I print all of my stuff out and hang them on my walls lmao
@@joined_shores_art I don't have enough space anymore but I used to do that. Bow I have a massive portfolio in my closet. It's pretty old and broken I think I need a new one lol
Yes, seconding this.
+, you can even add on to or remake old stuff for practice.
One art block cure I have is going through old drawings and redrawing them
Yes! I'm been saving all of my art ever since I started to draw in 2017 (unless I really don't like it but I usually throw that away after I make it but not years later)
I remember being so shocked when one of my family members told me that I should throw away my old sketchbooks since I'm not using them
That one tiktok with the advice of covering all area of the face you can’t draw just had me crying 😭
Lmaoo not sure if to take it serious or not
@@MohammedAgbadi ikr?
@@MohammedAgbadi It's a joke
bold of them to assume i can draw hair 😂
All my drawings in middle school had hair covering the one eye to avoid that pain of the second eye.
17:07
As a coloured pencil artist, I wouldn't recommend going from dark to light since with coloured pencils, you can layer a dark colour over the lighter one but you can't go vice versa (with some higher end pencils you can go from dark to light) but that also depends on the style you're trying to acheive. For me personally, I aim for realism whenever I do coloured pencils . However, whuth more stylised work you might do a different approach IDK
That's interesting! I have a super stylized art style and predominantly use coloured pencils. It may be because I use copic markers as a base, but I actually go from dark to light!
@@PrinceBaraButterfly
Yeah with alcohol markers, I find it easier to lighten up the base with coloured pencils than to darken it. However you can approach it however you find it suitable for your style!!
Yeah, I generally go from light to dark. I find it easier to manage.
I use colored pencils and I always go light to dark. I also do this with most other mediums I use. It’s my preference to start with light and move on to dark. It’s easier to add more saturation then to go back to light, especially with things like markers (at least for me).
The edit is purely because I am indecisive lol and can never finalize things
Yeah I was VERY confused when they recommended this..
“Don’t make the eyes too big” me thinking back to that time I had a crisis because they eyes were so large I had nowhere to draw the mouth
LOL WHAT??
Then don't sometimes they don't need mouths
This has to be the wildest confession out of all of the comments here
HELPP HAHAHAH
"to practice expressions, use a mirror or selfies of yourself"
Me, who can't look at my own face for extended amounts of time without having a physical reactions: welp im fucked
Seriously If I see my face I literally cringe at it
You can also look at photos of other people and practice like that. I use stock photos some times cuz they are very exaggerated, much better than models who try to be "aesthetics" with their mild expressions at best. Hope it helps!
SAME 😭
Same!!
I usually just look at cartoon expressions :)
Fuck that, I'm gonna draw eyes so big that I can hide the hands behind them.
T...That's genius!
@@GO2H3AVEN *Y E S*
The people who cover face features with hair are the same ones that put the hands in the pockets and make their characters wear socks at the beach. The same ones that take a photo, blur it and put it on the background. The same ones that put plants brushes in front of clothing folds areas. The same ones that crop the drawing in strange positions. The same ones that put their watermark on a specific blurred untextured part trying to hide something.
Soooo
Most beginners? Pfft
@@Elli0t_26 Im not any beginner and still doing it🤫
I've done most of these before haha
11:25 That tip can work for when the person already knows how to draw and is out of ideas or just wants to practice without wasting a lot of paper. It's not a good tip for those who don't know how to draw and want to learn.
it's an art activity, not a tip
*has a big eyes and colourful art style*
"Uhhhh-"
lmao literally tiktok tips!
The “cover features you can’t draw with hair” one just had me go what if I can’t draw hair
Decapitate them
That thumbnail is so cursed lol…
LMAOO
"so, how do you shade?"
Me: "buckets"
"What?"
Me: "buckets."
I don't get it
Let me guess... next step is to teleport breads for 3 days?
@TappyLePaostep 1 line art
Step 2 flat colors using bucket
Step 3 add layer and lower the opacity
Step 4 black and Just draw and bucket the part you want the shading. this works with white for lighting.
Wallah, Efficiency for artists who are lazy, doesn't use airbrush, and has a cartoonish artstyle.
Tips for beginers:always pracrise 24/7/365 without taking any breaks at all,this will give artist the ability to get stressed out.never use refference and only rely on imagination because the human brain is able to see object without even seing it.always draw the same thing and this will make artist stuck on the same topic on and will make them waste time even more:D(just kidding lmao😂)
Sam does art is absolutely amazing and I love that you are doing this tic tock tips too!
Facts, his art and videos are 👌. He’s been my recent inspiration.
he's a great guy and his patreon is amazing!
@@MohammedAgbadi can confirm
11:50 It legit always discourages/demotivates me when someone films themselves drawing stuff that looks so good and thought through and then telling me "not to worry about it being perfect"
Art tip for people who want to be able to draw:
1 believe in yourself.
2 don't be too optimistic or too negative.
3 listen to what people say about your art and be critical about it.
4 think too much and you'll get sick
5 never skip resting! U can't draw if your body & eyes are sore. Go! Do something else.
6 make sure to check your progress once in a while. For that u need to keep your old drawings. Be ready to get embarrassed. It's going to be painful.
“Nooooo dOnT dRaW bIg eYeS!!”
*Draws even bigger eyes*
Depends what level you are if your at the learning level where you still need to learn how to draw eyes noses mouth ect yeah no you shouldn't use any styles when learning to draw
@@hinamatsuro1908 This has given me the motivation to draw EVEN bigger eyes. Eyes so big that they are the face. My character will be able to see into your soul and deconstruct your molecular level with a simple glance. You will not be able to stop them, for it will be far too late
As someone who's been drawing for almost 5 years now, these look useful for drawing even more stickman portraits
14:43 is it weird that im laughing at him subconsciously giving the finger?
I got a good art tip for everyone (but mostly for people who have an already defined style)
[Draw when inspiration hits you regardless of it's an original concept or not]
I feel like my art style has improved from doing that or it increased my confidence with my art or both
damn mohammed agbadi mentioned faline-san, an unexpected crossover but not an unwelcomed one
Faline San supremacy
Don't want to draw hair?
Just make the character bald :)
Don't know how to draw heads? Cover it with a hat
Can't draw hat? Draw them getting chopped off
Even better! Save all that time by decapitating them!
Saitama:
I really hope the "just cover stuff you can't draw" one is a joke cuz doing this is basically one of the most cowardly things you can do as an artists
If you wanna improve, challenge yourselves, people
It sounded like a joke
But hear me out...
What if I have it really realistic and I'm happy with it but I forgot it on the other side- *and I don't mean just the other eye I mean the whole face at this point*
`-`
We don't have to be focused on improving 24/7
I think that was a joke lol, its just teasing people who cover the other eye with hair or something because they were too lazy to draw them
Can’t draw eyes, mouths, noses? Easy, plagi- I mean cover it in hair
PLSS
😂😂😂😂
"I guess right now everyone has a pronoun" sir I love your videos but people have had pronouns for as long as language has existed 😭
(also if it helps, just using they/them instead of "she or he or they" is a pretty good catch-all and it's much less of a mouthfull!)
Yeah, and more grammatically correct.
@@Antony_Oscar *tHIS SENTENCE IS GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT, BUT-* /j /j /j
He knows that he and she are old words, he's not a moron. Ignoring the fact that there are languages without pronouns (thus making your comment technically incorrect), he was poking fun at the recent obsession with what pronouns other people use to refer to you.
My country doesn't have pronouns, we just call each other 'siya' if we don't know their names.
@@Kiki-hf4yf That's really interesting!
Lmaooo my friend told me my TikTok was in your video LMAO yes the ✨ just add more hair ✨ is just a joke or for lazy artists who don’t feel like learning, you should definitely practice the things you struggle with xD I’m glad it made you laugh tho!
certified hood classic
ayeeee you know the vibes!
@ 17:42 I’m no watercolor expert but that’s how I shade when using watercolor. I start with the lightest part and build up the value
i didn't even realize when i was watching the sponsored portion. that segway was like, 100/10
Tip: if you have difficulty drawing feet or even hands try drawing them alone in different angles
art tip: don't pressure yourself to try to do better by doing things that are out of your comfort zone, if you want to do those things, do it but don't just do them because you 'need' to improve, do it because you want to improve, also dont pressure yourself to make everything look like the reference when drawing a character
16:53 for the watercolor, color pencil, and acrylic her advice was a 10 out of 10. Traditional mediums are super finicky about how you layer them. If you don't do it in the right order your artwork will be ruined.
Bur your right about digital you can go in whatever order you are comfortable doing. That one of digital biggest advantages.
I kinda like the idea of making a bunch of boxes. I do that everyday before I start work & I fill the with 10 -20 thumbnail designs for the client's project. Then I pick the 3 best & make 3 color/ lighting comps of those
Yoooo, would you like to make a " how to Draw Anatomy " Tutorial? I know Anatomy and all, but If Like to see it in your Style since you are more detailed in your approach.
Just a tip: if you're unsure of someone's pronouns just use they/them! 🥰 It helps to try to work it into your vocabulary so it becomes a natural flow in your speech and you can modify it when you get to know someone and/or their pronouns! 💖💖
It's a little better than saying "I don't know this person's pronouns, it seems everyone has pronouns these days" because everyone has had pronouns for a loooong time. Like when we refer to cisgender people with he/him or she/her. Those are pronouns! Pronouns don't apply just to non-cisgender people so it's not too hard to adapt!
usinf they them is still misgedering someone though! if you dont know someone's pronouns ask or find out or use regular nounds like the persons name or "the person" "someone" like i just did :0
@@caterpillaremoji4249 They is honestly fine if you don't know someone's pronouns, it's not misgendering. If you keep using they when the person tells you their pronouns (and it's not "they") then it's misgendering and it's something transphobes are known to do. They'll agressively use the wrong gendered pronoun for trans people or keep using "they" even if they don't normally use it much, just to draw attention.
i'm glad u brought it up in such a polite way! i was thinking it sounded a bit uninformed but didn't know how to bring it up
Cool but...Portuguese doesn't have neutral pronouns
@@notredboi i think that's why they're using english and referring to english pronouns
The one I'm so sick of hearing is:
"Stop just drawing worms everywhere" or "dont draw so many worms" or "I didn't ask for a page full of worms"
God it just really makes me mad, you know?
Who doesnt want a page full of worms?
17:03 while she says in the video is truth (you work from light to dark in watercolors), you can also work from middle tones and get highlights. The trick is using transparent watercolors (opaques are a bit more hard to remove, but is not impossible) and using a brush with clean water and paper tissues. Or use the same method while the layer is wet, so you can have highlights with a medium color. Is a bit tricky, but as soon you know how to use it, is pretty useful.
When I drew back at school I icould only consistently do side perspective and often just put a basic shirt under my custerfuk demon heads most of the time I never thought I was that good but got praised everyday for it
9:00 wym by that hasn't everyone had pronouns for years? 😭
The "draw a lot and push yourself to get original ideas" thing is pretty useless.
I don't want randomness, I want order since that's what ultimately is gonna help me improve steadily. What makes a drawing better isn't originality, but good composition, great anatomy/stylization, good color contrast, counterchange, etc.
I think originality and drawing are two separate things that doesn't come entwined. You can be great at drawing without having much originality. Just look at all those paintings from the XVII century and before: Most of them where paintings of regular people doing simple things, yet they ourstand because of the richness of each composition and art techniques used to create them.
For the last one.. as someone who uses all of thoss mediums.. that was a good tip for beginners.. it helps you understand how the materials work.. but as you said, once you understood them you can use them as you want.. (except watercolor.. those are always light to dark no exception)
that hair tip is such a saviour, who knew you could get away with such a thing just by adding hair!
13:55 this is so me. I have a big difficult to have ideas to draw because I have a lot to learn yet. So it's hard to me to know where to start, decide the composition, perspective, or even in simple images it's hard to decide a pose, and then some people say "Oh, just draw". Yeah, of course, then magically the knowledge will just pop up in my mind and I'll start creating the so called "masterpieces" 👏👏👏
Step one: Draw.
Step two: profit.
This was very inspiring and instructive, thank you for posting this! ❤️
your voice is so nice and calming. I like to watch art videos before i go to bed because i usually wake up and draw while eating breakfast and your voice helps me stay tired so i can get better sleep. Keep making good content!
Some tips were good, some were... Well not all tips are created equal. 😂 Also, I really enjoy your accent, it's so relaxing to listen to you speak.
So about the big eyes situation
I’d say practice enough and try to draw it simplistic and not complex anime
I’ve seen many kids make their eyes extremely cramped and die to them being kids who don’t understand character design the head would also be very cramped

When I need to draw the other eye digitally, I get a reference for what my eyes should look like and then I draw them at the same time. Mostly the same for traditional! It was something my art teacher told me and it's helped me ever since!
It was funny when he said I guess everyone has pronouns now like yeah that's how English works
Alot of languages/cultures only have pronouns for him or her and that is also assigned according to what a person looks like. Where I'm from, the concept of trans people, or people identifying as a different gender or even they/them doesn't exist in our language and our culture, only English speakers somewhat understand the concept of having pronouns outside of cis male and cis female. Maybe he's from a similar background 🤔😅

17:50 "Starting out with a very dark color, then mid tones, then highlights, then darkest darks."
I really love this tip this and I have been going by it since then. My shading and lighting have never been better! Thank you!
I'm interested in the talk about placing darks/lights/midtones because I've been told my approach is somewhat unique in this aspect. My digital art starts on a black or gray background and I work by starting with a clump of basic shapes made up of shadow-tones placed in the vague form of what I'm making and then adding progressively lighter tones as I "build" a subject and then I refine the shapes/form by shaving the edges off the layered light starting from the lightest and then working down to the darkest.
I have an alternate process that is mostly the same except after making the basic shapes I draw the most prominent shadows and then proceed from there.
Me when someone says to not draw big animie eyes while looking at my sketchbook;
"You have lost the privilege to look at my sketchbook."
EDIT; OMG tysm for 5 likes!
Hii! I'm a artist and I wanna share some tips that helps me in art
1. Imagination. You will need to imagine the thing/person you're trying to draw. You won't be able to draw without imaginations of what you're drawing (unless you're just doing random doodles or some sort of challenge)
2. Style. You will need to create your own unique art style. This relates to your imagination too! You will need to pick an art style you're going for. Some peoples can have multiple, but its up to you about how many styles you want
13:28 I think it's a reference to those get healthy quick scams that tell you that you can somehow lose weight without changing your eating habit.
Like "Don't change your eating, just walk." or "Don't change your eating, just drink water."
Because drinking water and walking are basics, but you still have to change eating habits to get real and faster results.
Off topic, but I absolutely love the background music Mohammed puts in his videos.
Honestly I disagree with your points on 12:30. While it is important to draw things by learning fundamentals and staying within a confinement your comfortable with, drawing tons of art you’ve never drawn before can really bring inspiration and really help beginner artists to expand their comfort zone. I feel like this person could’ve definitely worded things better, but I do still feel like what they were trying to say can seriously help with artists that are new or are just drawing as a hobby. Not every artist is going to want to draw the same way as a professional and not every artist wants to be a professional. That’s just my take on it tho.

I honestly think this person has a very good tip except he’s marketing it as the wrong thing. This Art tip is one I got from an art teacher I really respected quite a while ago. It’s not to make you a better artist, but it’s to train your imagination skills as an artist. Drawing in thumbnail sizes will keep you from obsessing over details and will make you draw quickly so you can fill in 100 boxes. However, the art tip my teacher gave me was that if I ever get an idea for an illustration, I shouldn’t draw the first idea that comes to my head. Instead, I should draw 50 small thumbnails of that same idea, making little tweaks to it and changing it in every thumbnail. This will help me get out more ideas and branch out from my original idea and find an even better version of my original idea. It trains your imagination and makes you explore your ideas on a much deeper level. It also makes you draw things you otherwise wouldn’t draw or things you think are weird or wouldn’t fit well because you have so much space you need to fill and you just want to put something down on the paper.
So yeah, good art tip, but it’s to train your imagination, not your drawing skills! :)
Thank you for the advice
thanks for showing up in my recommended i've missed you :D
If you're drawing an animal like a cat, or a jackal, you can study the movement of the ears of the creature you are drawing. One con with this is eventually you imagine how the ears would move on your own head and then suddenly when you run, you feel a phantom tail, and when you're angry you feel animalistic ears moving and possibly wings bursting out of your back. You can't speak of this to anyone because you'll sound crazy.
Wow! Lol love that sound bite
Thx for picking the best advice for us
i made an eyeless character once
not because i cant draw eyes, i'm about okay and almost decent at drawing eyes
but i wanted the character to have like a boring feeling so in my attempt to add him the less personality i could i ended up limiting his expressions
Hmm i think you can still have the character have their eyes and still not have them expressive-
It's not just the eyes alone that should carry the role of personality so other stuff like gestures, body language are still able to give some life into the character.
One way to limit expression and personality is not adding any difference in emotion in their body language or faces maybe- Like have them in a permanent neutral state kind of-
The biggest tip I've ever received all my life was "practice, practice, practice' e__e;
I love this channel.
Love the king geedorah song in the background :)
Dont use reference, reference is cheating, an artist should be able to draw anything blablabla I’m sick of non artists talking the most shit 💀
Are non artists aware that we’re like, always referencing off of something?
@@Corviidei they think we are born with a visual library or something 🤭
How to get better at drawing:
1. Get better
Drawing both eyes at the same time makes it easier to make them even ✨
this one was a little harder to watch while drawing - not so much the video's dialogue but the tiktoks - since a lot of it relied on visual instructions. Still just as enjoyable though. Also one of the smoothest transitions to the ad ever, I didn't even notice until half-way through the sponsorship, nice. Looking forward to the next video I watch.
« I guess right now everyone has a pronoun »
You don’t say… x)
Okay I’ll stop making fun of you, because that was honestly a very useful video! Thank you very much for that! :)
Great presentation! You’ve used man pictures and talked freely… I could understand everything very good and the informations were great and not to much… Overall a 9/10 !!! 👍 😂
As someone who has worked with watercolor and acrylic the tip in 16:52 is actually pretty good. Watercolor is translucent so whenever shading and lighting, you have to go from light to dark. For acrylic, it's best to go to the midtones first so that you have a better time mixing your colors either on canvas or on your palette.
18:00 for the art medium colour pencils I start with my lightest then my darkest then use the mid tone to blend together and if I want I got back in with a dark to create some contrast

“I guess right now everyone has a pronoun”
Everyone has pronouns
This concept is nothing new
You can't shortcut skill growth.

Not sure if this could be considered a tip, but it's helped me be a bit less critical in my sketch work. Work in a permanent medium (I use a pen). You start to build confidence in your work and where you put down lines. I have now 2-3 sketchbooks filled with just pen doodles and sketches and warm ups and I can see how I've become more confident in line placement as the past 2 years has gone by.
"Can't draw faces at all?. Just cover it with more hair!! ✨✨✨"
