Art hell is a place where you are forced to draw over and over and over and your drawings look like a four year old’s. Your hand in cramping and you are denied food or sleep until you finish all your projects but the projects never stop coming. Art heaven is a place where everybody loves your work. You are never rushed and you only have one project at a time to worry about. You are given breaks for food and rest, and all your art looks amazing. If you ever get a cramp in your wrist there, you get an extended break and you are never short of ideas because art heaven is full of inspiration. I have been to both because I have a really bouncy trampoline and a highly heat resistant drill with a camera on it. I have been to many different hells but it seems that art hell is the closest one to our real life that we live right now.
I'm just going to summarize what Lavender's sins are to the best of my ability. LUST: Adding sex appeal that makes your drawings less appealing to the viewer's eye ENVY: Lack of creativity, and not finding your own art style SLOTH: Avoiding anything creative to the point you're no longer motivated GLUTTONY: Working on so many projects at a time that it hinders your work PRIDE: Claiming to be at the top of the artistic food chain (even though just like most of us, your still, most likely, just a guppy), and not taking criticism well GREED: If I remember correctly, asking for RIDICULOUS amounts of money for commissions WRATH: The most common form is intensive art block Also, Lavender, I happen to have my own saying about pride. "There's a great difference between being proud and being prideful." Which means exactly what it sounds like it means. It's fine to be proud of something, but remember not to let it get to your head.
I think greed is only wanting relationships with people who can further your career in art, and only using those people as tools and ignoring people who can't offer what you want
I had to throw away some of it some days ago because I didn't have any space left in my room and it was all messy and stuff. However, I decided to keep some of the ones I thought were the nicest and some of the ugliest so I can compare them later to my future work :)
Today, a girl that can really draw, like really, really draw, gave me a drawing of an oc I created. She's actually the one who told me to watch your channel.
I know this comment is bound to be lost in the abyss of comments, but I'm still gonna post it. I found lavender townie half a year ago, when I was experiencing major art block. I couldn't bare to look at my art anymore , it just looked awkward, and unfinished. One day while I was trying to draw I found this channel, and I became addicted. I started to watch her as much as I could in the day, and soon I found myself taking lots of art advice from her. Months pass, I'm still watching her, and thanks to her I'm now extremely confident about what I draw. Soon, I wish it open up a webcomic, and I wouldn't be here if it weren't for these videos. Thank you Lavender Townee, everyone please have a great day! 🎀 Edit: Hope you get better! ^~^
Ok, so I have a story about my own art wrath. I would get so mad that I once ripped up my ENTIRE sketchbook. Later, once I calmed down I became super sad at what I did because there where so many good drawing in that sketchbook. I ended up piecing together all of my drawings with tape, and I vowed to never do it again. I do get mad sometimes but I just look at the drawing and says “nope, not today.”
Like when in 2011 I had this entire, ten notebook comic ongoing and I put so much work into it Then the next year I got so mad at my mary-sue filled, MLP ripoff, unplotted, badly drawn comic that I threw all of them away. Now I'm regretting all of this because it was my first ever comic that I put effort and tried to finish....Ah, the times when I had motivation....
I suffer from Sloth and Gluttony all the time art-wise... I have a million projects but when I get time to work on them, I'll usually be playing some phone game or watching videos on the web. Very bad combination. Like the worst probably. lD It feels like there are so many other bad habits you could cover! Cute video as usual!
poppixie101 That is me and my book ideas. I suggest using those to develop ideas into the projects you have already or even combine them. For example, say you want to draw a forest but you also want to draw the ocean. You can draw both on one canvas and make it a deserted island!
I'm not really an artist, I'm more of a writer, but I always apply the art stuff you talk about to my writing whenever I can. And these sins all apply to writing omg. Lust: Fetishizing characters Envy: Trying to compare yourself to writers with much more experience than you Sloth: Playing video games instead of writing Gluttony: Trying to write a bunch of different projects and hitting burnout (especially if you try to do nanowrimo and another writing project at the same time. RIP) Greed: This one not as much because selling writing is usually not done face to face, but this can sometimes happen Pride: The people who cannot take criticism and then turn around and say everyone else's writing is shit while they can't even spell. Wrath: Ctrl + A, delete. It has happened to me before and I regret it now. I look back at some of my old stuff now and I'm proud of how far I've come. The CRINGE looking through my old writing though omg
As an story writer I feel like I found myself on this list more. And I totally can agree with old stuff. It's cringe as fuck and very simple characters and stories but really helps to see how much is improved trough years.
and lust. i do give my characters a lot of crap in general but i don't fetish them. i put them in a lot of pain normally. it's fucked up but it's how i write.
Oh yeah, im not a writer, but i still make stories, so, oh well, i do *Roleplaying with characters i drew* , and like, you are right, those happen, and why are there so many people that cant even spell criticizing the work without even knowing the entire history ;-;
That's a problem i have, i usually have time to draw at work while taking calls, but I can't Really practice unclothed anatomy because co-workers might get the wrong idea of why that girl doesn't have clothes on xD
I know a particular "artist", if I can even call them that, that has a huge problem with pride. They can't take any amount of criticism and they are a grown adult. They block anyone who has the slightest bit of critique or "disagreement", they know nothing of other cultures art and yet try to capitalize on foreign art styles because it's popular. I swear they are the worst.
I dont think is dobson, i mean yeah sure he is pretty bad at taking criticism but i dont think he has tried to used any foreign artsyle since that pirate comic
Colorfull Kitten same here. I️ may even have a bit of wrath. I️ can easily go from having a sketch book with every single page to having a bunch of pages scattered everywhere of failed projects and work I️ thought wasn’t good enough :/
wrath is definitely my biggest problem I only started really trying to draw 2 years ago (I was 12) and my first stuff is comparable to literal 6 year olds so yeah those are all gone and even now I get so easily frustrated my first official sketchbook has 20/60 pages left in in it and even though that one was finished sometime earlier this year i hate just about everything in it
For gluttony, only 5-7 projects? I have at least 30 right now and growing and not just art but skills as well XD. Gluttony is my biggest sin by far. And thanks for this mini series, you did awesome. Hope you feel better soon.
I do wrath alot and i regret it sometimes but im just easily frustrated and have this self anger issue ...there was one time i was painting on a canvas and i just was so upset the whole time i eventually broke it towards the end like i smashed it but later on after a nice long anger nap i looked at it before tossing it out and was just like damn that was one of my best paintings yet i totally screwed up and then i was just sad after that....but thats an extreme usualy it just involves angrily ripping something out a sketchbook or scribbling all over it
I have the gluttony thing, but my trick is to focus on one at a time, and I try to make sure that I only have one that I need to work on, plus I can switch from one thought to another fairly easily. I know my limits, and I try to be kind as possible to others (Maybe to the point where people think I'm not human....?) with their art. Plus, I've never been the greatest at art. I don't think Pride is a problem with me. I hope. I'm only in first year of high school and the school year hasn't even started. Plus, I want to be an author and drawing can be a hobby of mine. I avoid drawing when I'm not in the mood, as I think I may do something that I will regret later on and I won't be able to fix it. (I do it on Paint and..... yeah.... I really don't like having to do a picture all over again for one little mistake. Seriously, I've seen small mistakes in my art and I'm just like 'Oh come on! Oh well, it's small, doubt anyone will see it'.) Plus, things I draw never turn out the way I want them too and I understand that and usually don't set high goals for myself. I just go with the flow on how my pictures turn out and if they don't turn out how I imagined them '........ whatever! At least I tried :P'.
@@lunaliss2626 Oh, I'm not American, I'm Australian. In Australia, we have six years of high school, Year 7 - Year 12. So, I'm in Year 11 this year, NEXT YEAR I'll graduate. I don't even remember typing this, lmao.
For the Gluttony one, just to rephrase but echo your advice: to do lists are your friends. (In whatever format that works for you.) Even if there are loads of ideas in it - it can also help you through the slothful periods where you want to draw but you have no immediate inspiration/direction and tempted to distract yourself from that. You can go, "Oh yeah! i wanted to draw that! Maybe I should try to do that one now!" (Honestly, I absolutely hate having too many projects flying off at once. I like to finish a few things over starting many, especially when we're talking about projects I want to put effort in. Not knocking on the doodling/etc. strategy, plus I get that it's also important to iterate on ideas to improve them. "Fail Faster" as they say.)
omg the greed one reminded me, in elementary school a bunch of kids where selling traced art (i could tell it was traced because 1. they never drew, they were in my class and I never saw them doing anything even slightly related to art and 2. it was perfect, the lines were perfect and everything about it was perfect and 3. i have seen those drawings before). and it was for money too. and since we were in elementary school, idk why they were even doing it. probably just to be rich. oops, this comment is long, sorry.
I remember deleting/destroying pretty much all the work i did from 2007-2013 and i completely regret it. Never destroy your work no matter how angry you are.
I have gluttony really horribly. I have more than 100 “projects” that I put on hold (aka they’re never getting finished) Scattered throughout my sketchbook history. Only about 23% of my projects actually getting done. ;-;
TheFnaf Theorygaming First off, Why do you care about my user name? It's my business what I name my account, not yours. Secondly, I'm fine with people who read predictions and stuff for fun, but I'm just about fed up with people who actually believe in them.
When lavender said “drawing while mad” I thought she meant “mad” as like... “insane/extremely stressed” wich I do a lot because it’s one of the few things I can do to keep my sanity and keep myself safe from myself when I start breaking down, so I was about to say “OHNO” but then I realized she meant angry and I relaxed. So that’s a thing I guess
I was really expecting to see sloth on here, like if you want to do art or work on projects, but never get around to it by procrastinating or making excuses. Aside from that, I really enjoyed the video. Keep up the good work!
i haven't really experienced any of the 7 deadly art sins. but i have experienced a different art sin that isn't on the list sometimes for a whole month, i would just... i wouldn't draw properly. i'd do these 5 minute sketches with rough de-saturated colours. This wasn't because i thought my art was t e r r i b l e , i just couldn't focus on anything really, and i'd give up quickly if i tried to make a proper drawing. because i'd think, h this is bad, my older art is way better. (tbh i just really really didn't want to draw) so i didn't like the drawings i was trying to make, but i was proud of my previous drawings??? is that weird lol ?>?
Another thing I thought should be said for the Gluttony one! I have been working on some craft projects that require me to wait for more supplies (like paints and stuff), so I’ve been starting other projects while I wait for the supplies to come. To make sure you don’t have too many projects on your plate, as soon as you get the supplies, finish the og project up, or the project that’ll take quicker to finish! It’ll be a lot more satisfying and you can focus on the other project more afterwards.
Hope you get better! 😃 Losing your voice isnt nice but you always get it back quite soon (At least from my experience) I only lost my voice a couple of times, but once I had no idea why I lost it. I was at school and my throat was hurting but only a bit so U stayed there and I had no problems speaking for the first four hours. On the fifth lesson I just avoided speaking and drank water a lot. And then on the sixth lesson I just couldnt speak at all. And my teacher wanted me to read something ... Yeah, I sounded basically like a zombie, she looked a bit surprised and she went like: 'Ok you lost your voice, Ill ask someone else.' And didnt ask me anything for the rest of the lesson. Once I returned home, my voice was back to normal. It just was super weird though because it was such a short time but I couldnt speak a single word.
It's amazing how these videos came out back in 2017. I got into drawing back in the summer of 2016, and 2017 is when I started creating my own works. Who knows how much this video could have helped me back then
I am so guilty of the gluttony art sin. I have so many ideas (a pair of manga inspired stories, one anime inspired series, etc). I'm currently working on a tarot deck based on people of the music industry, so I want to get this one out of the way because of my Wiccan interests. My mom is very network savvy in the art scene, so I've been getting some tips from her
a lot of the sins you outlined in both of the videos is so true with authors too the ones I deal with are envy, sloth, wrath, and gluttony *looks at my pile of unfinished drafts*
I definitely have a problem with Gluttony. I have so many comic, animatic, drawing and TV show ideas, and I’m worried that I won’t be able to do all of them 😓
I had my own wrath experience. When I a bit younger I had this cheap notebook full of sketches. I drew so many things in there and was so proud of it. I was then continued watching my favorite youtube artists and saw how good they were and looked at my crap. I then while in the car looking at my art and just started shredding it. My dad told me why I was doing that and I said I hated my artwork and that I didn't want it. He told me I would regret it and I was right. There were so many drawings I wished I could've redrawn or looked back on. But they're all gone. I did the same to the art hanging on my bedroom walls that I drew since I felt like they sucked. My mom managed 5o stop me half way and we saved about 5 of them out of like 20. Now I don't shred or dispose of my art unless I'm sure I don't want it anymore and won't use or look at it ever again
Definitely not!!! Vent art is a good way of relieving stress and getting your feelings out in a productive way. I'd say vent art is usually a good thing and not a sin.
I think I relate with the gluttony one, especially when I have been having a difficult time trying to work on any of my comics, let alone trying to start more than one.
The first one is basicly me with animation, I come up with so many animation ideas that I just start it and drop it and come back to it wich makes animation for me take SOOOOOOOO much longer
MinaThePinkPigglet The comic is going to be a very long one XD The animation would only be like 30 seconds long. I’ll probs do the animation first and do it while I develop the story of my comic slightly more
I’ve noticed that I have an endless cycle of wrath and gluttony. I would come up with soooo many ideas on what to draw and stories I want to tell, but then I get angry and tear them up when I don’t execute them correctly. Lately I’ve been trying to fix that habit of mine

Gluttony is having 300 ocs and wanting to make more
Check out Salty Milk, she's got more than 1000 and not stopping.
Lol my friend even hates it when I make a new oc and that's like every day
YES.
Oh dear 😂 thats relatable. And a week later I'm like this OC is shitty
sweetcat2452 that is so me!
Damn it I'm going to art hell I knew it.
Lol
Hey At least you’re not going to regular hell.
we’re all going to hell hell
Art hell is a place where you are forced to draw over and over and over and your drawings look like a four year old’s. Your hand in cramping and you are denied food or sleep until you finish all your projects but the projects never stop coming. Art heaven is a place where everybody loves your work. You are never rushed and you only have one project at a time to worry about. You are given breaks for food and rest, and all your art looks amazing. If you ever get a cramp in your wrist there, you get an extended break and you are never short of ideas because art heaven is full of inspiration. I have been to both because I have a really bouncy trampoline and a highly heat resistant drill with a camera on it. I have been to many different hells but it seems that art hell is the closest one to our real life that we live right now.
@@hobbytunez2519 No!!! No more!!!!! I can't stands it!!
OOF GLUTTONY IS MY BIGGEST PROBLEM
BOTH IN ART AND FOOD

I have a different sin irl It’s slof and one more
I'm sure EVERYONE here can relate to the Gluttony one
TinyStrawberry *raises* *hand* *slowly*
yyyyyyyyyyyyyyEs...
yes once I was trying to make like 5 animations at once and I only got like 2 seconds of animation done
-can’t relate :’(-
Nice profile pic👌
I'm just going to summarize what Lavender's sins are to the best of my ability.
LUST: Adding sex appeal that makes your drawings less appealing to the viewer's eye
ENVY: Lack of creativity, and not finding your own art style
SLOTH: Avoiding anything creative to the point you're no longer motivated
GLUTTONY: Working on so many projects at a time that it hinders your work
PRIDE: Claiming to be at the top of the artistic food chain (even though just like most of us, your still, most likely, just a guppy), and not taking criticism well
GREED: If I remember correctly, asking for RIDICULOUS amounts of money for commissions
WRATH: The most common form is intensive art block
Also, Lavender, I happen to have my own saying about pride. "There's a great difference between being proud and being prideful." Which means exactly what it sounds like it means. It's fine to be proud of something, but remember not to let it get to your head.
I think greed is only wanting relationships with people who can further your career in art, and only using those people as tools and ignoring people who can't offer what you want
I’m a sloth ;-;
KanjiGodomo I thought greed was wanting a Wacom when your broke
Nah Nah Nah Greed is starting and ending every conversation with...
“Please buy my paintings,”
Crystal Starlight nah nah it’s starting and ending every sentence with like 4 like?
I threw away all of my old starting art and now I hate myself for it because I cant look at where I started and compare it to my newer ones
Same, but luckily I have a few to look back on, and I'm thinking about remaking some of them.
I had to throw away some of it some days ago because I didn't have any space left in my room and it was all messy and stuff. However, I decided to keep some of the ones I thought were the nicest and some of the ugliest so I can compare them later to my future work :)
Ikr
That's why i keep old art on my walls so one glance tells me how far my skills have come.
Oof
Pride is my favorite one, it just has this aura and sassiness to it...
* the drawing, not actual sin

The drawing of her looks like me.
Today, a girl that can really draw, like really, really draw, gave me a drawing of an oc I created. She's actually the one who told me to watch your channel.
nice
That's great
Oh how cool! 🙂
Jennifer Haynes how nice!
Aw, that sweet~
See, we need more comments like this in the world.

I know this comment is bound to be lost in the abyss of comments, but I'm still gonna post it. I found lavender townie half a year ago, when I was experiencing major art block.

fodder4me That’s a great story! Congrats for getting over your art block!!
Please I'm not trying to be rude and I know this is off topic but I get really annoyed when people say Townie instead of town like its pronounced
same here!!! she really inspired me!!! great story
I've been on a really long art block caused by over working once ;-;. This channel helped me get out of that.
I can relate to you
gluttony
me: hahaha nope i totally do not do that no no no that is very silly of you to think i would do that *pushing pile of drawings to the side*
Atsuko Glassprings Sameee
Same

Yeah heh yeah no I totally dont stay up till 4 am drawing trying to get projects finished pffft how silly.
Ok, so I have a story about my own art wrath. I would get so mad that I once ripped up my ENTIRE sketchbook.

yoicksman how is that cute?
That just physically pained me, Oof.
I just rip individual pages that I absolutely hate
I've gone through something similar and also damn,you must of been really mad,but hey at least you learnt something about wrath and it helped you.
Like when in 2011 I had this entire, ten notebook comic ongoing and I put so much work into it
Then the next year I got so mad at my mary-sue filled, MLP ripoff, unplotted, badly drawn comic that I threw all of them away.
Now I'm regretting all of this because it was my first ever comic that I put effort and tried to finish....Ah, the times when I had motivation....
“Don’t talk to somebody if you just want a job”
Me:does that mean we can’t have interviews anymore?

I suffer from Sloth and Gluttony all the time art-wise...
I have a million projects but when I get time to work on them,
I'll usually be playing some phone game or watching videos on the web.
Very bad combination. Like the worst probably. lD
It feels like there are so many other bad habits you could cover!

I can relate 1000%
poppixie101 That is me and my book ideas. I suggest using those to develop ideas into the projects you have already or even combine them. For example, say you want to draw a forest but you also want to draw the ocean. You can draw both on one canvas and make it a deserted island!

I suffer from sloth and gluttony in art and irl
Me too ;-;
Gluttony is so cute. I love that she's wagging her little demon taill!!
I'm not really an artist, I'm more of a writer, but I always apply the art stuff you talk about to my writing whenever I can. And these sins all apply to writing omg.
Lust: Fetishizing characters
Envy: Trying to compare yourself to writers with much more experience than you
Sloth: Playing video games instead of writing
Gluttony: Trying to write a bunch of different projects and hitting burnout (especially if you try to do nanowrimo and another writing project at the same time. RIP)
Greed: This one not as much because selling writing is usually not done face to face, but this can sometimes happen
Pride: The people who cannot take criticism and then turn around and say everyone else's writing is shit while they can't even spell.
Wrath: Ctrl + A, delete. It has happened to me before and I regret it now. I look back at some of my old stuff now and I'm proud of how far I've come. The CRINGE looking through my old writing though omg
As an story writer I feel like I found myself on this list more. And I totally can agree with old stuff. It's cringe as fuck and very simple characters and stories but really helps to see how much is improved trough years.
Yeah me too! I find that writing advice and art advice go hand in hand a lot of the time.
i have everything but greed and pride
and lust. i do give my characters a lot of crap in general but i don't fetish them. i put them in a lot of pain normally. it's fucked up but it's how i write.
Oh yeah, im not a writer, but i still make stories, so, oh well, i do *Roleplaying with characters i drew* , and like, you are right, those happen, and why are there so many people that cant even spell criticizing the work without even knowing the entire history ;-;
I'm definitely gluttony, but most of the time I like having several projects open, so when I hit a rough spot with one I can move to the other.
Hyperspace Oddity omg same
Sorry mom, I have sinned..
"Your work doesn't really do yo any harm."
yea until your parents find your nsfw pages under your bed
tsu bateva 😂
That's a problem i have, i usually have time to draw at work while taking calls, but I can't Really practice unclothed anatomy because co-workers might get the wrong idea of why that girl doesn't have clothes on xD
I love the way you draw eyes you put so much emotion into them
I know a particular "artist", if I can even call them that, that has a huge problem with pride. They can't take any amount of criticism and they are a grown adult. They block anyone who has the slightest bit of critique or "disagreement", they know nothing of other cultures art and yet try to capitalize on foreign art styles because it's popular. I swear they are the worst.
May i ask if that artist is popular? I think i know who are you talking about but i could be wrong
I want to say andrew dobson because he's well known for being shit with critique but the latter might not be right.
I dont think is dobson, i mean yeah sure he is pretty bad at taking criticism but i dont think he has tried to used any foreign artsyle since that pirate comic
The artist I was talking about was not him but he could very much apply. And yes, this artist is popular unfortunately
Some Cliche' Name
Christopher Hart
Ohh man,, the gluttony is for sure me ;w;
Also please get better soon!!
Same here, too many projects, mostly because I have the particularity of never running out of inspiration (at least for the past 3 years)
Colorfull Kitten It's a problem for me too! I have a comic and several gifts to work on as well as a side story so it's kinda hard to balance
Awh, good luck with working on those!
Colorfull Kitten same here. I️ may even have a bit of wrath. I️ can easily go from having a sketch book with every single page to having a bunch of pages scattered everywhere of failed projects and work I️ thought wasn’t good enough :/
same
I looked at my old drawings i kept and i cringed about every anatomical false pokemon and digimon drawing
No offense but you comment a little too much. You know you can put all of those comments together, right?
goldenex they only made 3 comments. Its not that bad ^^
Flem li i look at art from 2 months ago and cringe😂
it's a good sign of improvement. i always keep my old art to see how much i've improved. but yes, it's cringe-worthy
I USED TO USE AIRBRUSH SHADING E W
wrath is definitely my biggest problem I only started really trying to draw 2 years ago (I was 12) and my first stuff is comparable to literal 6 year olds so yeah those are all gone and even now I get so easily frustrated my first official sketchbook has 20/60 pages left in in it and even though that one was finished sometime earlier this year i hate just about everything in it
*sees her draw swirls as knees*. Hello neighbor flashbacks
oh god no-
SAME
Lol
My brother put everything from the neighbours house into the closet whenever he played, but I put them neatly in the house and explored:)
I put lines:D
*Deadly* Sins!
Wow I didn't know that I could Die making Art!
SylenDraws It can kill you career, though.
oof
wow i didn’t know that i could die being proud of myself or greedy
SylenDraws XD
I SEE YOU EVERYWHERE STOP, THIS HAS TO STOP, STOP,
*STOP.*
For gluttony, only 5-7 projects? I have at least 30 right now and growing and not just art but skills as well XD. Gluttony is my biggest sin by far. And thanks for this mini series, you did awesome. Hope you feel better soon.
Envy...Hahaha...Haha....ha.....*internal crying*
I feel you
Agreed agreed
*cries in green*
I look at artists and analyze how they made their art, then i practice parts i like+ what i learned. It really helps my art evolve and grow.
Whenever someone says im good at drawing i say " no you" and whenever someone says i suck im just like " You never knew?"
I always keep my bad work with my positive quote.
“I’ll laugh and make fun of it in the future if I ever get better,”
*If* = when
Gluttony: definition of my art
viktor horvat same
Same though
I hope you will get better soon and great drawings i love you and your channel so much keep up the great work 😁

J S Geez, you don't get the meaning of the video, because that's not what she was saying. Don't be a dick
Flem li
Why do I feel like it's a lie, but it's not? I don't know. . .
Just feels fake. . .
Pffffff, gluttony? Psht, totally not me right now 😭
Itotallydonthavelike6thingsreadytodrawwithnotime
Yep me
I do wrath alot and i regret it sometimes but im just easily frustrated and have this self anger issue ...there was one time i was painting on a canvas and i just was so upset the whole time i eventually broke it towards the end like i smashed it but later on after a nice long anger nap i looked at it before tossing it out and was just like damn that was one of my best paintings yet i totally screwed up and then i was just sad after that....but thats an extreme usualy it just involves angrily ripping something out a sketchbook or scribbling all over it
I have the gluttony thing, but my trick is to focus on one at a time, and I try to make sure that I only have one that I need to work on, plus I can switch from one thought to another fairly easily.
I know my limits, and I try to be kind as possible to others (Maybe to the point where people think I'm not human....?) with their art. Plus, I've never been the greatest at art. I don't think Pride is a problem with me. I hope.
I'm only in first year of high school and the school year hasn't even started. Plus, I want to be an author and drawing can be a hobby of mine.
I avoid drawing when I'm not in the mood, as I think I may do something that I will regret later on and I won't be able to fix it. (I do it on Paint and..... yeah.... I really don't like having to do a picture all over again for one little mistake. Seriously, I've seen small mistakes in my art and I'm just like 'Oh come on! Oh well, it's small, doubt anyone will see it'.) Plus, things I draw never turn out the way I want them too and I understand that and usually don't set high goals for myself. I just go with the flow on how my pictures turn out and if they don't turn out how I imagined them '........ whatever! At least I tried :P'.
This was four years ago… so you graduated?
@@lunaliss2626 Oh, I'm not American, I'm Australian. In Australia, we have six years of high school, Year 7 - Year 12. So, I'm in Year 11 this year, NEXT YEAR I'll graduate.
I don't even remember typing this, lmao.
This may sound really weird but your voice is somehow really cool sounding when sick???
It's not healthy tho- I know what you mean tho XD
Can I just say that LavenderTownes sick voice is super cute?
My voice is gone right now, so I know what you mean, haha. Sorry to hear you're sick :c
Also lmao the gluttony demon is so true
Cinders AJ i hope you too are getting better soon
wow, you know she really is a digital artist when she forgets the word paper. XD
A BEANIE BOO TUBER I'M FAMILIAR WITH COMMENTED ON A VIDEO ABOUT ART ELEVEN MONTHS AGO????? WHAT KIND OF SORCERY IS THIS????
Ahem. Hi. (That's...what I meant.)
For the Gluttony one, just to rephrase but echo your advice: to do lists are your friends. (In whatever format that works for you.)
Even if there are loads of ideas in it - it can also help you through the slothful periods where you want to draw but you have no immediate inspiration/direction and tempted to distract yourself from that.
You can go, "Oh yeah! i wanted to draw that! Maybe I should try to do that one now!"
(Honestly, I absolutely hate having too many projects flying off at once. I like to finish a few things over starting many, especially when we're talking about projects I want to put effort in. Not knocking on the doodling/etc. strategy, plus I get that it's also important to iterate on ideas to improve them. "Fail Faster" as they say.)
omg the greed one reminded me, in elementary school a bunch of kids where selling traced art (i could tell it was traced because 1. they never drew, they were in my class and I never saw them doing anything even slightly related to art and 2. it was perfect, the lines were perfect and everything about it was perfect and 3. i have seen those drawings before). and it was for money too. and since we were in elementary school, idk why they were even doing it. probably just to be rich. oops, this comment is long, sorry.
I hope you feel better soon!
i misread that as "i hope your art feels better soon" and i just starred at the screen confused until i realized im stupid lmfao
Malika Gaming haha omg! 😂
I usually have three projects open at a time, being a large one, something smaller, and a sketch dump/doodle thing.
Thanks!
I remember deleting/destroying pretty much all the work i did from 2007-2013 and i completely regret it. Never destroy your work no matter how angry you are.
8:07 im off to art hell then
Drink tea with honey or milk with honey
Tea with lemon is better i think
Tea with honey is better for troath problems, tea with lemon is for colds and stuff like that
Peppermint or ecanacia tea (idk how to spell it oops) is best (I think Milk can stuff your nose up? I might be wrong)
Sleepy C. Oh ok thanks
Cinders AJ pepermint tea is good the other one neverheard of it
If you made a children's book I would totally buy it for my brother
Btw get better soon
This reminded me about The Seven Deadly Sins Anime... I’m gonna rewatch it now
Omg me too!
YES
I mean i think some of it is based on it, the greed one looks sorta like ban and the wrath one does have dragon based stuff
I was getting more Full metal alchemist vibes tbh lol
Reminds me of FMAB
I have gluttony really horribly. I have more than 100 “projects” that I put on hold (aka they’re never getting finished)
Scattered throughout my sketchbook history. Only about 23% of my projects actually getting done. ;-;
My elementary art teacher would say that destroying tips of the paint brushes is a sin. Even though I’ve never seen anyone do that.
I am DEFINITELY gluttony rn
I want to do all my projects at once and its stressful
Awh! Poor Lavendertowne... Great video though.
Can you make a video about what drawings would each zodiac make
E.g
Virgo - Mystery
Leo - Death
Gemini - mythical
Etc.
TheFnaf Theorygaming I'm a Leo lol
I AM DEATH
TheFnaf Theorygaming t h e z o d i a c s a r e s t u p i d
Into the butt, Shrek Senpai
And why is that?
And I don't know why you would name yourself 'into the butt, Shrek Senpai'
It's ridiculous
TheFnaf Theorygaming First off, Why do you care about my user name? It's my business what I name my account, not yours. Secondly, I'm fine with people who read predictions and stuff for fun, but I'm just about fed up with people who actually believe in them.
Into the butt, Shrek Senpai
They never said they actually believed in it though... (•-•`)
When lavender said “drawing while mad” I thought she meant “mad” as like... “insane/extremely stressed” wich I do a lot because it’s one of the few things I can do to keep my sanity and keep myself safe from myself when I start breaking down, so I was about to say “OHNO” but then I realized she meant angry and I relaxed. So that’s a thing I guess
It’s okay to draw while mad but dont do the sin :D
I was really expecting to see sloth on here, like if you want to do art or work on projects, but never get around to it by procrastinating or making excuses. Aside from that, I really enjoyed the video. Keep up the good work!
i haven't really experienced any of the 7 deadly art sins.
but i have experienced a different art sin that isn't on the list
sometimes for a whole month, i would just... i wouldn't draw properly. i'd do these 5 minute sketches with rough de-saturated colours. This wasn't because i thought my art was t e r r i b l e , i just couldn't focus on anything really, and i'd give up quickly if i tried to make a proper drawing. because i'd think, h this is bad, my older art is way better. (tbh i just really really didn't want to draw)
so i didn't like the drawings i was trying to make, but i was proud of my previous drawings???
is that weird lol ?>?
-/ferretser/- Nah, it's normal. It's just an art block
All I can think about is anime because of Full metal and 7 deadly Sins ....
Yes I am weeb of course.
me too
Ye, me too ;^;
Fink hello fellow weeb
I thought of ban and meliodis
welcome to the club
The greed demon looks like gundham tanaka and junkrats kid. Just saying
OMG I SEE IT NOW
asjskfb lmao just bc of the scarf, it reminded me of eraser head,,
don't ever say this again, it's too true
Another thing I thought should be said for the Gluttony one!
I have been working on some craft projects that require me to wait for more supplies (like paints and stuff), so I’ve been starting other projects while I wait for the supplies to come. To make sure you don’t have too many projects on your plate, as soon as you get the supplies, finish the og project up, or the project that’ll take quicker to finish! It’ll be a lot more satisfying and you can focus on the other project more afterwards.
I’m definitely wrathful. I really dislike being like this, once I ripped up and burned an entire notebook full of my drawings.
0:10 GOOOOOOoooooooD Myhtical Morning!
Hope you get better! 😃 Losing your voice isnt nice but you always get it back quite soon (At least from my experience) I only lost my voice a couple of times, but once I had no idea why I lost it. I was at school and my throat was hurting but only a bit so U stayed there and I had no problems speaking for the first four hours. On the fifth lesson I just avoided speaking and drank water a lot. And then on the sixth lesson I just couldnt speak at all. And my teacher wanted me to read something ... Yeah, I sounded basically like a zombie, she looked a bit surprised and she went like: 'Ok you lost your voice, Ill ask someone else.' And didnt ask me anything for the rest of the lesson. Once I returned home, my voice was back to normal. It just was super weird though because it was such a short time but I couldnt speak a single word.
You should do a video on burning out. : )
Out of all of these,my sin’s definitely gluttony. I have soooo many things planned that I’m trying to work on at once
It's amazing how these videos came out back in 2017. I got into drawing back in the summer of 2016, and 2017 is when I started creating my own works. Who knows how much this video could have helped me back then
Your art inspires me to make my own art. Thank you LavenderTowne
Also get well soon! My sister is sick as well, and I think there might just be a germ going around.
I absolutely love the drawings of the 7 deadly sins!
Hears first one... me.. " OMG YOU READ MY MIND
I love how all most all of them have sweaters on/ long sleeves. All my art friends (and me) fricking love sweaters.
I feel your pain girl im sick and I completely lost my voice last week
Naima Bukhari i hope you will get better soon
Flem li thx im getting better little by little
Hearing 7 deadly sins reminds me of the fullmetal alchemist series
That name tough... that sums up mah life
Those two anime’s are related?
Not early enough
Also it's 2:01 (AM) in my country

Fair enough
"Art Wrath"
*looks at destroyed sketchbook*
Oh. ....
OH SHI-
I am so guilty of the gluttony art sin. I have so many ideas (a pair of manga inspired stories, one anime inspired series, etc). I'm currently working on a tarot deck based on people of the music industry, so I want to get this one out of the way because of my Wiccan interests. My mom is very network savvy in the art scene, so I've been getting some tips from her
There should’ve been lust where the artist sexualizes their art a lot
I know I’m probably that..
She did that one in a previous video. :)
She did that one in part 1
It's in part 1
It was weird not having her soft and light voice in the voice over. I'm so used to ir, feel better soon though!
0:05 BUT I SWEAR WHEN I’M READY I WILL FLY US OUT OF THERE-
gluttony is so hecken cute I just can't ……. AH THE LITTLE WAGGING TAIL! TwT
a lot of the sins you outlined in both of the videos is so true with authors too
the ones I deal with are envy, sloth, wrath, and gluttony *looks at my pile of unfinished drafts*
1:08 lol try thinking of 48 things- i need therapy...
anyone else reminded of fullmetal alchemist/ fullmetal alchemist brotherhood?
no, oh ok then..
yES I thought I was alone!
omg ur name cracks me up, i love dan and phil :D
Me too, i really love them, as you can see from my name :DD
and ur profile picture ;)
Yes... *slowly raises hand*
Amazing drawings and an awesome Inspration as usual! Also hop you get better! ily!!! (platonically!)
I just love the little skull hat on the last one (even if I'm not into skulls) it just fits in so well!😝
I definitely have a problem with Gluttony. I have so many comic, animatic, drawing and TV show ideas, and I’m worried that I won’t be able to do all of them 😓
I love you so much and you are really relatable!!!You are so good!
From an amateur artist,
Love ya!!!❤❤❤
Well, we’re both sick so I feel your pain 😭
Pllllleeease make a resident stinky t-shirt when you get a chance, I would buy 50 of them
I had my own wrath experience. When I a bit younger I had this cheap notebook full of sketches. I drew so many things in there and was so proud of it. I was then continued watching my favorite youtube artists and saw how good they were and looked at my crap. I then while in the car looking at my art and just started shredding it. My dad told me why I was doing that and I said I hated my artwork and that I didn't want it. He told me I would regret it and I was right. There were so many drawings I wished I could've redrawn or looked back on. But they're all gone. I did the same to the art hanging on my bedroom walls that I drew since I felt like they sucked. My mom managed 5o stop me half way and we saved about 5 of them out of like 20. Now I don't shred or dispose of my art unless I'm sure I don't want it anymore and won't use or look at it ever again
The Art Gluttony Sin is my biggest issue omg. I'm glad this one was included because not a lot of people include this topic.
3:44 OMG SHE LOOKS LIKE SAYORI
thATS WHAT I THOUGHT
THE FIRST ONE REMINDED ME OF NATSUKI
starry night YAS
Would “vent art” fall under wrath? Some times I scribble art in this way to vent stress but I’m worried that it would fall into this category
Definitely not!!! Vent art is a good way of relieving stress and getting your feelings out in a productive way. I'd say vent art is usually a good thing and not a sin.
@@MilkyWayKitty1 Vent-art could be hate-art which could also fall under envy if it's done of another artist.
I never really scribble on pages cause I use water color paper
I think I relate with the gluttony one, especially when I have been having a difficult time trying to work on any of my comics, let alone trying to start more than one.
The first one is basicly me with animation, I come up with so many animation ideas that I just start it and drop it and come back to it wich makes animation for me take SOOOOOOOO much longer
I don’t know whether to do a short animation or start my comic ahhhh
Nerdy Owly why not both? Maybe start off the comic first because that might be quicker to get done then the animation
MinaThePinkPigglet The comic is going to be a very long one XD The animation would only be like 30 seconds long. I’ll probs do the animation first and do it while I develop the story of my comic slightly more
Take care of yourself!!!! Nobody wants to see you destroy your health to stay on schedule 💖
WAIT what clidren's book!!!! I need to read it
Ravenpotter *childrens
I have a huge issue with Gluttony because of getting SO overwhelmed with ideas that I end up not even doodling anything.
I’ve noticed that I have an endless cycle of wrath and gluttony. I would come up with soooo many ideas on what to draw and stories I want to tell, but then I get angry and tear them up when I don’t execute them correctly. Lately I’ve been trying to fix that habit of mine
