Anupreeti Boro i started drawing in 1st grade below or smthin and i think i rly upgraded im in 7th grade now and every year i swear they always say im the artist in class hueheuee lol
Rugilė Vasiliauskaitė Rugilė Vasiliauskaitė just as you might believe your art isn’t good, he probably thinks the same about his art!! lots of artists tend to bring themselves down and compare to other artists they believe are better, when other people think otherwise! like how he said his art isn’t good, but so many people disagree in the comments! so don’t let his opinions on the art he creates, make you believe that yours isn’t good enough!! just keep creating art
@@jewel879 You're so right, most artists always bring themselves down, but it's just when I look at my drawing/painting I can always see what could've been better, but I suppose every artist does that innit?
This video makes me remember when Conan was our little secret 😖, so it’s been a year and I came back to this comment... let me make this clear, I wasn’t saying that I’m not proud of his success, I was just reminiscing on the times where I got to actually see him as I was growing up. His videos have been very influential on my life and I think he deserves the world, but for you guys hating... come on now. Conans not a negative person, why should you be?
my art teacher.. well she doesn't teach me cause high school at my school doesn't take art.. but she taught me last year. she told me to go to art school and never become an art teacher.
Creative Retards yeah at my school it's really frustrating now because I don't have the option of a art class for another 2 years and our last actual art teacher just got fired for throwing a chair at a student he was kinda a crazy guy
Melanie Coenraad that probably isnt your art teachers fault, normally in lower level art classes you dont have as many choices, and you are given a sort of theme or topic to base your projects on. but as you get into higher level art classes you get more freedom, such as media used and more room to change up the initial project theme the teacher assigned. this is mostly to weed out people who dont really want to do art and are just trying to get fine arts credits out of the way, and it prevents wasting expensive material- higher level classes also tend to use better quality materials Like I took painting I last year, and we were only allowed to use acrylic and water color, and my teacher told us which to use and what type of imagery to base our project on, for example she wanted a watercolor of a still life she set up, and we couldnt stray from it. but then in painting II, she let us use our choice of acrylic/watercolor/oil, and still gave us a general assignment to go by, but let us talk to her if we had a different idea that was still somewhat related. If you choose to apply and take AP studio art like conan, which (at least in my school) has a $50 fee for material use, you will have all the freedom to create what you want using the media you want. You will still have sketchbook assignments with a specific theme but other than your teaher helping you with ideas if you are stuck you will have the final say (for the most part), especially in your AP portfolio. You have to work your way up in a way, but it gets more fun as you progress.
Can you do a tutorial on how to draw large scale portraits without a grid please Edit: Thank goodness I know how to do this now! I’ve had some great art professors the past couple of years! Thank you all for your help!!
I've never used a grid before and I'd say to start off with loose shapes and sketches where your main parts of the piece are going to be then slowly add more and more detail till you get it how you want it
(college sophomore art student here) I admire the fact that you don't immediately go for the most professional high quality supplies. My professors always make us buy the most expensive supplies they make (like tiny tubes of oil paint that are ~$20) and insist that they're the ONLY tools that will work and that your art will look bad if you dont buy the most expensive kind of everything. I never believed this but I know a lot of younger artists do. The truth is that a good artist and make do with any tools no matter how cheap, because the artist is who makes great art, not the tools.
tinytiffany I think this is only true to some extent. If your doing art, obviously the quality of your materials will affect your final outcome and if its hobby drawing its okay to use any supply but if your going to art school and planning to do business youll NEED the expensive quality products
I use the Blick studio colored pencils for all of my pencil art and ohmygosh! I've completely ditched Prismacolors now, Blick's pencils are much much cheaper and they give a really high quality finish to your art. You can religiously build up color without a wax buildup, I definitely recommend them!
they used to be really cheap, i have a ton of old sets bc they were so cheap, they are way too overpriced now and not of the same quality as before. :(
Conan even though I'm depressed i REALLY want you to know how much your videos make my day better you're a great human ❤️ I'm going to continue watching the video now so just thankyou 🌞✨
You should try gouache, I think you would like it a lot. It's kind of like a cross between acrylic and watercolor in the sense that it has a very smooth finish like acrylic but it is water based so it's SOOOO much easier to use. If you want check out my instagram @rileyartersen, I do a lot of gouache paintings on there :)
Hi Conan! I've found that with the Gelly Rolls, the ink wasn't opaque enough. I started buying new pens, and the Uniball Signo Broad pens are so good, smooth, and opaque. You don't have to layer them like Gelly Rolls, and I think they are a great alternative! I'd love to see you try it out!
only downside is that gel pens are water based so they will bleed if you try using them with watercolour [lol i’ve ruined so many paintings this way] but they are really good pens :)
Allusion OMG THIS IS SO HEART BREAKING! YOU'RE IN MY PRAYERS I HOPE YOUR COLORED PENCILS ARE OKAY! (I'm seriously not joking by saying that, I'm sooooo sorry for your loss)
for some prismacolour alternatives, I use Faber-Castell polychromos and they are quite similiar. I have used prismacolours before and I find them both fantastic, hope this helps🌼
hi i found your channel only yesterday but i already love it so much! you make me feel so calm and chill and confident and you are literally a ray of sunshine
jcchen1229 if you buy them in store they are, but from my experience, when they are bought online, they are cheaper. Maybe I've just been buying weirdly expensive prismacolors?
Polychromos are oil-based colored pencils whereas Prismacolors are wax-based. They're generally more expensive. They both blend in different ways and it's really a matter of preference. Wax-based colored pencils generally erase better and are much softer. They build up to a more buttery texture. They're susceptible to wax bloom and breakage. Oil-based are harder to find but are a bit more firm therefore they don't break as much and keep a point longer. They can't build up to as buttery of a texture. They also don't bloom over time. The methods are different as well. With Wax-based, you generally blend with a colorless blender, whereas with oil-based you tend to use solvents. tl;dr Prismacolors and Polychromos are two different types of colored pencils and it really is up to preference as to which is "better"
Great colored pencil options are Faber castell polychromos (almost all pencils are lightfast, contain less wax, more transparent and layer great ) Caran d'ache luminance colored pencils (completed set of lightfast pencils, high quality, buttery application, expensive) Caran d'ache Pablo colored pencils (waxy, similar to prisma color) Prisma colored pencils are great beginner and advanced pencils, just use with caution as 2/3 of the pencils are not lightfast (will fade over time).
Gelly rolls are good but conan you should try the signo white uni ball pen. Its more opaque than a gelly roll. its at the same price almost. Hope this helped! 🌻
okay this may be totally random but i have to let this out!! conan where do i even begin: you're like sunshine on a rainy day. youtube was something i've always dreamt of doing. eventually when i did start making content i drifted away from it slowly and that made me so sad. but YOU. are the one who inspired me again and i'm so happy to be making content again and honestly it's all thanks to you i could never thank you enough. you're such an inspiration to me and i am not even exaggerating, not only your content which i'm absolutely obsessed with but you as a person. you're amazing and beautiful and i can't even think of the best compliments because you deserve more than that. your content is all i strive to make, as -hope to be- youtuber you are such an amazing inspiration trust me. you inspire me in words that can't explain like the sun causes the flower to blossom and the rain encourages it's beauty. that was just a small reminder; i love you very very much and thank you so much for inspiring me this hella much! please keep doing what you're doing i love you so much.
I kinda took a break from drawing for now but I always felt like my drawings weren't as good cuz the only thing I used were normal pencils and pens. And I know that's not the case but it would motivate me more to try new mediums....xoxo 💜
Hey Conan, I was wondering if you had any advice on skin tones with prismacolors. Whenever I draw a person they either look dead or pink😂 Thank yoouuuuuuu!!
Mallory D, I know I'm not Conan but I've worked so much with prisms colors. My advice is layering layering layering and some more layering. Don't just use a generic skin color look at the undertones are they pink, red, yellow , purple and add a very light layer of that
All of my art supplies are just random I use what I can find lol. I hope to see more videos like this I loved it Conan! I actually might go and buy some of these things
I use Brushmarkers, just regular cheap colored pencils and acrylics and recently, i got vang gogh watercolors for my birthday and i LOVE THEM. They are so pigmented and easy to work with and the final outcome looks so proffesional. :) (+PROTIP If anyone wants van gogh watercolors and cant afford a 50 dollar pallete of them just buy the "refils" and make your own pallete they cost like 1.50 each and Its sooooo mucch cheaper.)
i honestly wish that i would've stuck with art freshman year :/ i dropped out of my drawing&painting class in the middle of freshman year so i could have a study hall class, and i fuckin regret it aha. I'm a junior now and im just now getting back into art and i don't remember anything nor how to do anything
Hey Conan :) not sure if you'll ever see this but could you make a vid on the colour theories that you were talking about? Love this vid so much and would totally watch if you made the colour theories video :) 💓
Can you show us a video on how to draw without gridding I know it's not really your style of videos but honestly your portraits are amazing and the fact that you don't use gridding is amazing !
I can't be the only one that didn't think that he was gonna release one song and comeback to giving art content, right? Like 4 years later and my mans singing about Heather!
It's rlly sad that Conan won't be posting vids like this, please don't blame me if he still posted vids like this, anyways. Good luck Conan writing ur songs!
Aw Conan I can’t tell u how many times I’ve watched this video when it first came out! I can’t believe how far you’ve come.. it sounds silly, but I’m so proud. I remember you telling a story that your motivation for getting good grades and doing good was getting out of the house because of family problems. I really relate to that. You’ve been a role model of mine for a while, thank you so much! I miss the UA-cam videos!! 💕

i just draw a part of the face and start from there. i’m best at drawing the eyes or nose, so start there!
It's okay to use grids, the more you draw, the more confident you will be with your art
Look up the loomis method
Start practicing on how to notice positive and negative space. It is a game changer

Conan - try Polychromos Colored Pencils. They're slightly less expensive, blend really nicely and have great opaque pigment.
Eva Carter are you from the US? because polychromos tend to be more expensive in the us.
jcchen1229 if you buy them in store they are, but from my experience, when they are bought online, they are cheaper. Maybe I've just been buying weirdly expensive prismacolors?
Eva Carter yeah polychromos are generally more expensive than prismacolors. maybe you've been buying prismacolods at retail?
Gina Yu maybe idk but I bought a really nice new set of Polychromos online for like $50. Would you say that Polychromos or Prismacolor is better?
Polychromos are oil-based colored pencils whereas Prismacolors are wax-based. They're generally more expensive. They both blend in different ways and it's really a matter of preference. Wax-based colored pencils generally erase better and are much softer. They build up to a more buttery texture. They're susceptible to wax bloom and breakage. Oil-based are harder to find but are a bit more firm therefore they don't break as much and keep a point longer. They can't build up to as buttery of a texture. They also don't bloom over time.

All of my art supplies are just random I use what I can find lol. I hope to see more videos like this I loved it Conan! I actually might go and buy some of these things
I searched up affordable and beginner art supplies and came across this video and said “he looks so familiar🤔” it’s Conan Gray🥺❤️
😼😼
you mean so much to me
*I'm literally searching for best acrylic paints aND FIGURED OUT THAT YOU'RE AN ARTIST?* From Heather era here. 😭
SAME i was like, is that conan???? HE PAINTS BETTER THAN ME
early bird catches the worm
I use Brushmarkers, just regular cheap colored pencils and acrylics and recently, i got vang gogh watercolors for my birthday and i LOVE THEM. They are so pigmented and easy to work with and the final outcome looks so proffesional. :) (+PROTIP If anyone wants van gogh watercolors and cant afford a 50 dollar pallete of them just buy the "refils" and make your own pallete they cost like 1.50 each and Its sooooo mucch cheaper.)
i honestly wish that i would've stuck with art freshman year :/ i dropped out of my drawing&painting class in the middle of freshman year so i could have a study hall class, and i fuckin regret it aha. I'm a junior now and im just now getting back into art and i don't remember anything nor how to do anything
Hey Conan :) not sure if you'll ever see this but could you make a vid on the colour theories that you were talking about? Love this vid so much and would totally watch if you made the colour theories video :) 💓

I can't even make a star

You seem like a professional artist to me! Your art is amazing!!
Can you show us a video on how to draw without gridding I know it's not really your style of videos but honestly your portraits are amazing and the fact that you don't use gridding is amazing !
*sees the large set of prismacolor pencils*
Me: *dramatically dies* mY hEArT
I can't be the only one that didn't think that he was gonna release one song and comeback to giving art content, right? Like 4 years later and my mans singing about Heather!
Notification squad hihi ✨
how the frick can your school afford prismacolors, mine only has dollar store pencils
hi i always see you in my related channels thing so i finally checked you out and wooow you and your channel are so adorable keep doing you i looovee
I'm also really curious as to what video editor you use. that's so unrelated to art but yeah
Brooke Space he uses final cut pro :)
Unicorn Island thank you so much that helps so much :)
bts spring day and now this I love my life
More art videos please!!!! love your aesthetic :)
it's so weird coming back to his art videos, he introduced me to billie eilish and 2 years later he made some of my favorite music.
It's rlly sad that Conan won't be posting vids like this, please don't blame me if he still posted vids like this, anyways. Good luck Conan writing ur songs!
Conan can u do a speed paint video pleezzz!!
I love how he's not bragging about his supplies. This helps me learn more about art
You're so beautiful and talented, and a nice person IM JEALOUS. (Jk, I love you)
I just found your channel and I'm literally obsessed! I've almost watched all your videos!
loving conan for over 3 or 4 years. :’) so proud of how far he’s come
Aw Conan I can’t tell u how many times I’ve watched this video when it first came out! I can’t believe how far you’ve come.. it sounds silly, but I’m so proud. I remember you telling a story that your motivation for getting good grades and doing good was getting out of the house because of family problems. I really relate to that. You’ve been a role model of mine for a while, thank you so much! I miss the UA-cam videos!! 💕
This is so aesthetically pleasing
using only 3 colors to paint?! i cant even imagine omg
epicemma79 you just mix... That's part of the fun 😉☺️
Yeah don’t you also get at least black and white too to add tint and shade
Wow ur so good! Aaaa I hope I can draw like that some day! I like manga and some realism. Seriously doe I love that picture! I love drawing as well :3
We all love a soft boy❤ break dem hard, brooding guy stereotypes!
