As someone that's been through an art education, videos like this convince me more and more that my education was NOT worth it. Sam's videos have probably taught me more than my illustration course did in 3 years

Talent is an illusion you have when observing skill without observing the process of developing it. And he didn't have to trade his soul for it - just a shitload of time.
What amazes me is how fast he is. I mean time/effort vs result it is impressive. Wondering about his brush pressure setup and pen config. I swear sometimes I could say it is a watercolor like. Would be nice to see a video about that.
You are one of the few artists I saw here who really want to help new artists to develop their skills.😀 You are my greatest inspiration. I love to watch your videos again and again cause they are so helpful 😉
you should watch the youtuber Drawingwiffwaffles then! her videos are more about her process than teaching objectively but watching her draw can be extremely informative (especially her 100 heads challenge video)
yeaaa took me a min or two to get the "trees" reference, but finally remembered "trees/greenbacks" are usually refereed to as money because, tress are green, and trees can also be made into paper. So strange the way my mind works sometimes lmaoo
Really, the way you make sure we the noobs need to calm down and take things little by little so we don't overwhelm ourselves in this journey becoming a good artist means a lot for me in particular. I often rush anything, be perfect as quick as possible, no rest, etc which turns me into the opposite, showing a slow progress and somewhat stuck. Anyway, thank you. You deserve my subscribe button!
This opened my eyes why my traditional and digital quality levels are so different. I've been drawing traditionally for 2 decades but just picked up digital . Thank you
I'm in art school rn, and one of my most recent classes was color theory and still life and I've learned a lot about grayscale and it's def helped me improve
I'm an experienced artist with pens, pencils and paints on paper or canvas. But once I made the transition to digital it was hard, but once I got a feel for it all my knowledge of art eventually transitioned over. So in a sense I did have to start with square one, it was frustrating knowing you can make art a lot better on paper but having to stick with this to get better, and I did, but it also has to do with what kind of tablet you have. Display tablets are definitely the way to go the others are just way too hard to adjust to.
Ah, so fundamental basics of art do apply in both traditional and digital. I always wondered if my traditional knowledge could transfer over. I adore the finished painting! She's so pretty and the contrast is really nice without being jarring.
Okay now...i know why its so important! Thanks alot Sam! Your an inspirational, and talented artist, we love you Sam, i hope you can do a tutorial of painting skin plz🙏🏻
I’m doing a weird way of learning how to do a realistic drawing by starting fresh without any experience knowledge and trying to do this on a program that I basically just picked up and don’t really know how to operate it. So this should be very interesting.
This definitely one of my favorite video's of yours, maybe one of my favorite art ones on YT. It's so important to remember how to properly use values!!! defo gonna share this and go back to it when needed.
I always feel reluctant to go into grayscale because I get very bored - I'm always so excited to apply the colours. Need to learn some self-control and practice in grayscale!
Watching you sketch before you paint is my favorite man. Your lines are so pretty. I’m really having trouble with proportions of facial features idk how you do it
You are actually helpful. I think on instagram aswell on yt theres a lot of do this not that instead of like you saying "this is an important foundation! practice it because of this and that"
Amazing timing for this video, been feeling as if my illustrations have been more flat these days and I couldn’t figure out why :”) I might even try this out with a single hue only too! Something like a monochrome portrait
I'd love a video of you talking a bit about how you started and some tips about what kind of a road map you think will be good when learning. I really like your style, I think your understanding of light and value is fantastic and I wanna learn.
I don’t know how your channel finally got into my feed but this is my Lucky Day. I’m a beginner and totally appreciate your clear informative approach to drawing! I’m a jazz musician by trade and appreciate the value of practice but, as you said, it’s important to know where to begin! Many thanks for all you do!
Sometimes, it's simple problems that make drawing hard. 0:10 was when I realized I could just choose the gray scale pallet on my app instead of trying to choose gray and black then blending it to make the shade I want
I used to have this problem. I struggle for like 5months?? Even after learning basic forms, light shadows, planes, i still mess up. I do this digitally and assumed I already understand everything but I didn't realize I'm not applying what I learned. the thing that I found to be helpful for values is when I started learning traditional oil painting with grayscale. I exercise myself 30min each portrait focusing only in 4-5 values with a reference. I see huge difference in my improvement when you only have limited palette for a short time and when I go back to digital it's now easier for me to paint even with colors. I also suggest evolve artist course but it's expensive, I'm not a student of this program but I find their curriculum the best way to learn values.
Sam, you taught me so much that i didnt understand back then. I’m not so experienced with art but yet pretty good, but i see some issues i do and dont really understand them. Thank you, Sam does education!
Wow im actually struggling a lot learning to render art - and last night I started to try to do greyscale and it really isnt working. I really needed this video thanks :D
Yeah I was about to start a black and white portrait to practice but then I saw Sam's 15 minute portrait at the end and now I'm kind of intimidated... 😂
*50 yeah ik lol i thought he said 15 too (bunch of ppl did) but then realised how impossible that would be dont conpare yourself to other artists too much! its sometimes is just discrouraging, and its important to know you will get there eventually, and everyone needs their own amount of time to get good at something 😊 keep going!
YOUR ART IZZZ AWESOME!!!! And I know YOU GET THIS A LOT, BUT YOUR VOICE!!!! 😍 IT MELTS ME AND IT FEELS SOOOO SOOTHING, COMFORTING, AND I KEEP BLUSHING WHILE WATCHING AND LISTENING 💖💖💖
I have been troubling picking color even though i have an reference to follow it, but after watching your video, im gonna start with learning grayscale first before jumping to coloring and other complex stuff. Thank you so much! :))
Thank you so much for this video. I've been drawing with graphite for a while now, but I haven't tried Grayscale digitally. This was very informational! Thanks, Sam
Thank you! I'm in that group of people who struggle with representing colors & had to practice values more, feeling very called out lol. Could you do a video about transitioning a painting from greyscale to color?
Here’s a tip: choose your colors, lay them out spread apart from each other, and then just turn on grayscale mode. When you’re done, turn it off. It’s similar to the “I don’t see the colors I use” challenge, except you do.
Aw, Sam, I was hoping you'd also show how to turn a greyscale painting into a coloured one digitally. I dont know my way around the softwares and find it hard to do that. Also, a bit of colour theory and finding the right hues.
This video really gave me to confidence to try character painting and that stuff. I'm better in landscapes, but I really want to focus more on face, body and character. But it just doesn't work out. So I might try this
So good, Sam. We need to get the basics. My schooling didn’t teach me this way. It was all just sink or swim. I learned more basics in HS than in college.
you should do an art challenge where u turn off the color in settings and then draw with black to gray and then turn the color back on and see how weird the drawing looks with the colors you used!
so glad i found your channel a couple months back. I really love your style and i cant WAIT to see you blow up!! ALSO I WAS LISTENING TO SHIT ON SPOTIFY AND IMMEDIATELY RECOGNIZED YOUR ART STYLE FOR THE PINK SWEAT$ AND KEHLANI SONG
Thank you for these tutorials Sam! They really help me out a lot. I was wondering if you could do one about "finishing touches" because i really like the last details and shapes you add to your paintings!
Awesome video. I’m that new digital artist that has only been studying anatomy, colors and rendering. But I’ve been sleeping on values to be honest. So I’m definitely going to learn about them. What you said about there just being so much info online and not knowing where to start is also true and can be very overwhelming! 😅
This man along with Ethan Becker and some other artist are my biggest inspirations super good break downs and they really help people understand unlike those ppl on tictok who go... Step 1 draw a circle Step 2 add detail there you go and your done Lol Also the beats in his videos go hard
My 2 cents: For people who are wondering what order to study art subjects in, from my experience of trying to teach myself, the path looks a little like this: Lines -> Shapes -> Perspective+Contours -> Values -> Colour. Each topic builds into the next.
if you finnish with gray scale make another layer and clip it and make it on mode overlay it will make a color if you like to color your gray scales :D
*"Okay it's been about fifteen minutes..."*
Me: 👁👄👁
how could is that possible man, he is unbelievable
He said in another thread that it took 50 minutes, not 15.
EXACTLY lolllll i was thinking the same thing
he is the Flash but artist
Even if it took him 50 minutes .. I would be happy if that took me half a day to get such a result :)
Me, who can't even draw circles correctly: "Ah, yes. My mistake was not focusing on values."
Haha

And never say I’m stupid 😆
It’s nice to see outtakes when you’re hashing out the dialogue. Makes us remember that talking to a camera is hard 😂😂 Excellent video!!
i never thought of doing grayscale art until this video popped up. Thanks for telling us why grayscale art is important to learn! ❤️️
Greyscale is definitely important and can help alot

I swear he needs more recognition! he is amazing at what he does!
My problem is figuring out how to pick the correct values.
Study lights vs shadows, a shadow value should not be brighter than a light value and a light value should not be darker than a shadow value
the answer is always mileage and good reference haha
no rule can save u
try studying pictures with good lighting

One thing I would like to add to make Value drawings easier is to group your shadows, and use at most 5 values.
Great work! I started out a more traditional artist and I completely agree with you. Learning values is So important. Love your work.
I agree! I recently started taking it seriously and it really helped my art!

It looks so easy when he does it, when it's actually not.😯
Probably because he has done thousands of portrait drawing.
Awesome video. I’m that new digital artist that has only been studying anatomy, colors and rendering. But I’ve been sleeping on values to be honest. So I’m definitely going to learn about them.

Love your vibe and how well you explain things :) I can tell you have a genuine love for your art. Thanks for the great vids
I needed this and had no clue as to how much... Thanks big homie!..... And this sound track in absolute GAS🔥
I have always wondered why people do this and I never bothered to look up why 😂 thank you!
I hope you also explained how to or what to do when applying those different shades of dark color, like what shade of gray to begin with...
I found u on Instagram and I love ur drawing style, it’s so beautiful ❤️
This man along with Ethan Becker and some other artist are my biggest inspirations super good break downs and they really help people understand unlike those ppl on tictok who go...
Step 1 draw a circle
Step 2 add detail there you go and your done
Lol
Also the beats in his videos go hard
My 2 cents: For people who are wondering what order to study art subjects in, from my experience of trying to teach myself, the path looks a little like this:
Lines -> Shapes -> Perspective+Contours -> Values -> Colour.
Each topic builds into the next.
Watching you always makes me want to do digital art! Great video btw :)
It’s funny because I’m a graphite turned digital artist and color has been the hardest thing. Definitely need to start integrating this instead.
"Ok it's been 5 minutes"
And he has got a finished painting!
It happens in almost all of your vids.
Teach me master!
Sam! Oddly enough, I got values and grayscale down, but color is such a drag. XO
This was awesome! To the message and music! Thank you for making this!
i like your style, it's so beautiful
Thanks for sharing your digital art!
You are so good!👏👏👏👏👏👏
Your art always inspires me a lot, it always leaves me mesmerized :O
You're very talented, wow. I love your style.
if you finnish with gray scale make another layer and clip it and make it on mode overlay it will make a color if you like to color your gray scales :D
i needed this! i started off with colors so hopefully practicing can make me better with lighting and shading with colors
Honestly I can't even draw but I watch the video till the end cause watching him drawing and colouring is kinda therapeutic
