Perfect timing. I was just starting getting frustrated with trying to learn digital art and forgot for a second that maybe I should just step back and polish my fondamentals again before trying to ascend.
A general rule of thumb I often use when it comes to visual art: "If it looks wrong, it IS wrong." Something can be technically, structurally wrong, but still LOOK correct and thus it works.
What I learned is don't overthink because 98% of the costumer/consumer won't see or notice your hard work. I had the same in wildlife photographs. When I show people ''bad'' images, they all say OMG that's so incredible. Art is Art, if you are done and can say I love it people will accept it even if you could over tune it 400% up for weeks. Less is more, I will srsly tattoo this on my forehead. Great content, good insight and well done articulated.
I was trying to move too fast and got hung up on the most basic things cuz I didn't do enough studies and this video made it even clearer thank you Tyler 🙏
Don't try to know everything before starting to draw. Knowing you have something to work towards is great, but trying to do everything right as a beginner can be discouraging. If you keep at it you will automatically get to a point when you'll be curious about better composition or finding a rythm. It's nothing anyone will start with or will rely on when they are a beginner. It's something you discover on your own terms and through a process of iterative drawing.
Funny you say to screenshot the image, I download the video and screenshot every detail of it. Good video, it talks about the very thing I do by feeling. That is to focus on easy things to do first while getting accustomed to more complex that in the theory would go fast the more understanding I have on the subject. Thanks Tyler!
I struggle a lot with making something mine, I love realism I follow a lot of people doing realism but I also love stylezed art. Many people keeps telling me "You struggle to make a decision realism or not" and I don't know how to ya know brake that. I study both but I still meh I love Jc leyendecker but I also love Andrew Tischler. I also recently started to learn landscape painting after getting tired of character art so I'm more lost then ever
Thanks for the video Tyler ! It motivated me to come back to basics. I'll try to do simple studies to see how to make them interesting, that sounds fun !
12:30 I caught myself thinking, imagine if those red circular shapes wasnt there for color and shape contrast, the whole piece would be SO much less interesting
Appreciate the videos, as always. Audio quality on this one is kinda rough though, as a piece of constructive feedback - the mix changes in both volume and which ears (or ear) it plays through, and it's a bit disorienting. Other than that, good video!
Personally I want to make environment painting with expressive brush and colours but Its very hard to express that busy feel. I stuck 'How I can add that busy feel in my brushing and colouring?' it's hard for me to do that
well its not a race beginners and less experienced artist should be taking 20+ hours to finish most things, speed comes naturally with time, 10 years ago every image i did took 15-45 hours. now im just better with workflows and getting ideas across with less. let yourself take a long time.

LMFAO " less Is more" is such an underrated quote. That will forever live rent free in my soul.

Jump scare starts at 16:42 😂

This has such EXCELLENT advice!!! 👏 👏 👏 👏 thank you!!!
Thank you so much for sharing all this useful information!!
Thanks for this, very helpful

My parents are not encouraging for arts but I still want to do it
How do I implement texture? I guess it is more than just slapping a picture onto the brush tip in the settings.
I want to do it for my family
thank you tyler!
Great stuff
Should really sit down and make a whole notebook on these types of videos. They are almost like full classes.
Appreciate the videos, as always. Audio quality on this one is kinda rough though, as a piece of constructive feedback - the mix changes in both volume and which ears (or ear) it plays through, and it's a bit disorienting.

You are right it could be better
push ur limits, cool :)
Personally I want to make environment painting with expressive brush and colours but Its very hard to express that busy feel. I stuck 'How I can add that busy feel in my brushing and colouring?' it's hard for me to do that
But I don't know how can I make them understand
5:30 Where is this from ?
Final fantasy 7. If you like jrpgs I highly recommend you play it.
Hey tyler , how to overcome the feeling of guilty for taking long time to finish a piece of painting? Like what is the best way to evaluate it?
well its not a race beginners and less experienced artist should be taking 20+ hours to finish most things, speed comes naturally with time, 10 years ago every image i did took 15-45 hours. now im just better with workflows and getting ideas across with less. let yourself take a long time.
I took a screenshot of the contrast types, would it be ok if I share on social media with credit and link to vid?
I want to prove my parents that they are wrong
My indian parents are against it
But I am an Indian
