As someone who fell into the trap of “get a job to pay the bills and do your art as a secondary job hoping to sell”. It NEVER works out that way! Now I’m a mom of a 10 year old - I have a full time admin job- and my art went on the back burner for so long I’m having to relearn a lot of skills. The worst part is that drawing makes me really happy and calms my anxiety so now I’m making it a priority again and finding my happy place. Beginner artists- there are so many jobs where you can be creative don’t settle!
Rebecca Herman amen!! I am working toward getting back to my art and I even wrote a book about prioritizing your passion. So so important!!
that's awesome you're making it a priority again, especially since it calms your anxiety!! best of luck finding your happy place! :)
Thank you baby
Yeah, this is mainly the reason that I'm scared to get a job, cause I know I'd stop fighting for art since I'm too conformist, but I actually don't have the skills to be an artist that soon. Also, it's not that easy as said in the video for artists from other countries :'(
Same here
The tip about not comparing yourself to other artists is so important for anyone to listen to. I am so hard on my art when I see other people’s work to the point where it stifles my ability to create art that I’m proud of because I am holding it to such a high standard that if it doesn’t meet that immediately I am a failure... which is such a toxic mentality to have when you’re going through your artistic journey.
Fellow artists: Please be kind to your art, treasure it. It’s unique and incredible because it was created by you.
I went through a similar struggle.... thanks for the advice 😁
I’m so bad when it comes to comparing myself to other artists. And when their bio says they like 14 or 17 or whatever I feel like setting myself on fire. I’m like shit, these kids are younger than me and twice as good. But I find that limiting my time on Instagram helps a lot, because if I don’t see other people’s work, I don’t think about how mine compares to theirs. Also please make this into a little series, I’d love to hear as many tips as you’ve got!
it's tough!! and thank you, I will definitely share more tips!
I also feel that way, but the way I go about it is by taking advantage of my anger and jealousy, and use it as motivation to do better
I replaced “drawing” with writing here and it was a big help. This is true for all art. Thank you.
Please make a part 2!
You are so talented and sweet and funny and just overall an inspiration ♡
If you can, could you make a video explaining the different fields of animation? I've always thought it consisted of rendering or rigging or 3d sequences, but in one of your other videos you found out that there are many fields, like visual development!
thank you!! I actually have that on my list, I wanna explain the animation pipeline and what each job does! :)
I think it's important to remember that you're never in competition with others! So it's no use comparing yourself to others. There will always be people that hate the style you're drawing in, no matter how technically skilled, and others who can't wait until you upload because your art speaks to them so well. The best thing you can do is create art that appeals to you, because there's a fan out there for every art style.
Part 2 please ❤️
I never actually took into account that the younger a person is, the more exposed they were to digital art / technology. Makes me feel a lot better about younger artists being really good at it! I think it's awesome but there's always been that hint of jealousy so thank you for putting that into perspective! And yes, part 2, please!!!
I'm putting every neopet in my portfolio.
I think for me it's comforting knowing that even really experienced artists can make sketches where the anatomy looks horrible, nothing is coming out right, the pose is stiff etc. We all have off days and one bad sketch doesn't mean you've lost all your current skill as an artist!
I have a very hard time with comparing myself to others, especially younger kids, and I know it's bad but I can't stop with the intrusive thoughts. It just keeps making me feel like "what was I wasting my time doing at that age??" I can't stop it and it still hurts, especially being in an art college senior year, not having gotten any of these opportunities and internships that younger kids get now, and it being basically too late :c
don't worry about age, it's just a number! it's never too late to get into art and get creative jobs!
struggling with that. am almost 30 and just now getting serious about art
Also another thing can be "using a reference." I always have this mindset that artists should be able to draw straight from their imagination. But as time goes by, I have found the power of using a good reference photo and I can still turn it into my own style. Thank you for a great video! Big fan :)
I'm really bad at comparing... especially since I'm turning 30 this year and all these whipper snappers are doing some amazing art and I love complimenting and helping them shine... but... Why does my art suck like theirs. heheh. we all do it, but you're so right, its just evil.
I've also started complimenting other artist's skills instead of their talent because we work SO hard to get that darn corner right or that whispy hair technique perfected and I think our hard work needs to be recognized.
Thanks for this Vid... I needed it. lol
You inspired me to go back to school and study game art design. Thank you so much for being an inspiration!
wow thank you!!
@@lulusketches you're welcome, please keep up the great work. And yes we'd love a part 2.
@@juliesmith7921 researching schools as well and considering the same and was looking into character design. Where do you study?
Thanks so much for your videos and insight! Helping with the messy starts
And part 2
One thing I’ve learned is specifically not comparing your current level with the level of people who have been professional artists for like 30 years. A lot of younger people compare their work to people who are much older and get discouraged because they’re not as good, but that’s because they haven’t had the same amount of time for practicing their skills. So like... if you’re 25 and you compare yourself to Paul Felix, that’s not a fair comparison.
The worst feeling is, seeing people younger and so much more talented. It is HARD!! Just plain Hard to see people who realized their passion before you and are so far ahead. But it is just something to work past emotionaly, and finding it more so encouraging than comparing.
This is so encouraging! As a college art student, I am constantly doubting myself and wondering if I am doing the right thing. Lately, I feel so discouraging for being not good enough as an artist, but this video lifts me up ❤️
I honestly thought you were gonna quote Arin from GameGrumps, "I didnt come out of the p*ssy drawing mozart!"
Either way, good video!! I was just thinking about these things last night. I've also followed Makani back in the deviant art days and aaaah she's so goodddd
I’ve been an artist for close to 20 years and I still have messy sketches. You just need to get the idea out there, thus, the messy result. Great video!
Please make a part two of this, it upped my mood a lot to watch this! Thank you so much for being such a positive voice in the art world
I was super lucky back in Kindergarten the teachers noticed I could draw and paint with ease. Now years later, I'm soooooo out of practice from regular job....getting back to art now takes real practice like never before. But, I get your point....and totally appreciate your awesome videos by the way! 👍👍😉
defiantly going to need a part 2!!!
I needed to hear this! Been in the dumps in the worst way and needed to focus on what makes me happy. Then this video popped up and omg I'm feeling way more centered. Plus your puppers made me smile too.
Please make a Part 2. I love your videos so far! I'd love to hear more of what you have to say Laura!
Currently in art school and even in college these are helpful! Parts 2, 3, 4, and 5 please!!!!!! No amount of tips can be too much ❤️
Definitely excited for a Part 2. I really needed these reminders. Thanks for the awesome video.
This is a fabulous video. You answered the questions I had and the ones I didn't know I had. Thank you so very much. I would love to see part 2.
Don't know if you already did a part 2, but if that's not the case, than I would love to see it! Thank you for these videos you make. They help me a lot to understand how the animation and artistic world are, and making my decision. Thanks!
❤️ the tips thank you! I have always drawn what I loved and then I started drawing things that I thought other people would like and I noticed the things I love to draw I put more of myself in it and it looks so much better. So I believe that 100%!
Yes please make a part two!
It's 1 am and I'm up currently working on my portfolio. You always find a way to give me a little more motivation when I need it- I'd love a part 2! (:
"as technology improves" Oh man 15 year old me would have killed for an iPad pro ahaha... The future is here! It can keep its scary AI nonsense, but bring on the amazing drawing tools! :'D Great video! One of these days I swear I'm just gonna give up answering asks on Tumblr and just post links to your videos, lmao.
thank you!!
I have a iPad air can I use that
Have to come back to numbers 3 and 4 frequently! Thanks LP!
It's so nice to see an example of someone who followed their passion and it worked out for them. I'm in the stage of life where I'm going to be freshly out of college and looking for jobs, and my major is one where it is very loosely connected to designing. Very very loosely. The job is fun, but I don't know if that's what I actually want to do. I really want to go into animation and I want to take the risk of taking a gap year/semester to expanding my portfolio, but again it's a risk :0 But seeing you at where you are now is really encouraging, so thank you (: Part 2 please!
I absolutely want part 2!!!👍🏻
THANK YOU for sharing these tips! I would LOVE to see a part 2 of this! And Mabel is just the CUTEST!!🙌💖
Yes, Part 2😍 please,and thank you
Yes YES I think one of the hardest steps was learning to stop comparing myself and watching my own growth over others. I tell this to friends who also struggle and I can’t stress enough how important it is sometimes 😊😊
Defenetly should do part 2, thanks for all advices 😊
Yes on a part2 i always enjoy these videos and use them as inspiration!!
please make a part 2! I am so thankful I found you on my art journey :) I came for your Bob Ross painting and I stayed for your love.

Part two, please!!! I honestly love watching your videos because they are so funny and give great tips! Love you!!
Very helpful advices :) Working as a graphic designer and web developer I haven't had that much time for art, but my kid at 5 loves to draw so have regain my pasion for drawing and painting again. Thank you so much!
Can you please make a part two? This was such a big help! Is there any way that you could also touch on the different career choices with art? Like the different college/careers and the general information about them? Love your videos!
These are such great reminders! more tips would be awesome!
Thank you so much for such helpful advice!
Love, love, love this video, I'm working on making my art full time now, ugh I'm so grateful for you xo

Just discovered you by chance the other day, and I have to admit I’m very pleased. You’re very talented, your art is wonderful, and your video production quality is great. I’ve learn a ton already. Not to mention, you have a great sense of humour and you’re super likeable. Keep it up Laura, it’s clear why you’re popular!
Such chaotic energy! I love it
Please make a part 2!!!
I’m an artist and I have been thinking about going the animator route so your tips would be so helpful. Thank you so much for being the human you are and sharing your world with us.

yess do part 2
Thank you! Thank you thank you thank you!!!! Your videos give me hope and motivate me to work hard towards my goals!!
Thanks for the advice! I’m currently working on my portfolio 😊
I'm glad I accidentally found this video. I needed to hear this. I was discouraged from drawing when I was 16 by my mother that called me talentless. I'm 37 now, and decided to start learning how to draw. It started with Inktober of last year, and I have an ultimate vision in mind that I want to accomplish one day, but I know to be patient and enjoy the journey. I'm still learning forms, but I try to post my daily practice sketches on Instagram to keep me honest. Plus, it will be fun to look back at my sketches, and see to evolution.
always giving the best advices
Yes, I have a chance to work at Disney. A dream I had since high school 25 years ago.
Thank you for sharing!
you do a very impressive quick understandable fun delivery of incredibly valuable to the point info
Love your advice videos. Please make part 2! And more tutorial video please. Thank you!
This is great, and so uplifting!
Just found and loved your channel, it was awesome. I'm going for graphic design now and all of your information is very informative and motivative for me.
Im sitting here thinking yes ! I can do this ! its always been my dream since I was a kid to be an artist drawing cartoons. I spent a lot of years doubting myself and your words couldnt have found me at a better time, thank you, thank you, thank you for taking out your precious time out of your day to share. Also your so funny and you're such an amazing person Laura.
I would love a part 2!!
I just found ur youtube channel I i've just been on an art video binge! one advice that helpt me a lot when it came to comparing myself to others, was to alway say I am not that good, YET! that motivated me to keep going and learning from those artist I compared myself too rather then just making myself feel bad XD
Dude, I'm pretty sure this would be my top 5, too! BANG ON! Another one of your vids I feel like just sending out to the universe. haha. Oh, yeah, and do a Part 2. Or a part 2-10. haha
THANKS AMANDA 💖
Laura, you are amazing! I love your channel!
Please please please make a part 2! Your videos inspire me so much. I'm a beginner artist :)
The start of this was awesome not only the dog'scut butt but about artist
aah so glad to hear the number 5! Thank you, I really wanna have an art job 💛 part 2 would be great!
We NEED a part two :)
Yes! Part 2 pls ❤️❤️❤️
WE LOVE YOU & THANK YOU
Part 2 part 2 part 2!! 😍
I feel like crying. This was so amazing plus a little funny, and way to true.
I used to draw a lot as a child and really wanted to get into art, then was told by my teacher my work looked "immature" (which granted, it did), so I ended up taking different courses at university. Over time, art has faded more and more into the background and now I barely do it because I have unlearned each and every skill I had. But I miss it. Dear teachers, please mind what you say to young people and beginners just starting out. (And thumbs up for this video, love it!)
Yes i wish a part 2!
Love your videos!!
I would love a part two! It's great to learn new tips, even if I have already heard one, reminders are good. Reinforcement. Plus, it's very helpful to hear about your experiences and see if any compare to what I'm working through at the moment. You're great at encouragement, and when people inevitably hit a wall, rut, or block, it's good to get those positive stories that fill up the old Hope-O-Meter and bring back our fire. Thanks for your hard work! :)
thank you!! glad you enjoy them!
Wow, I needed this video right now. Thank you!!! Yes please for a part 2!!! ☺️
yay! thanks! will have to do a part 2!
Yes, please.
More videos like this.
Thank you! This is very helpful
That was awesome! Would be great to hear more tips like that. I feel inspired thanks to you. :) You're such a great person.
thank you so much for this! you made my day! love you.
lu lu ...this is what i need to see..thanks for that and waiting for part 2
honestly. thank you for saying that art is an actual job. everyone judges me and tells me that they know a person that has an art degree and they dont use it. i am so glad someone finally backed me up! i love art and i want a career in it. animation is my goal and ill always have little side goals or "hobbies" as everyone else likes to call them.
I love this video! Such good advice. I wish someone told me this when I was a kid.
Hi Laura! I just found your channel and your videos have been a big help. I'm 25 years old and although I've drawn since I was 14, I didn't start taking it seriously until 2 years ago and would love to make a career out of it. I used to compare myself to other artists which made me feel bad about my art. What I do now is try to use that as a motive to improve. At the end of the day, the only artist we should compare ourselves to is ourselves.
Thank you so much for your advice really thank you😉😉😉
This is so inspirational thank you ❤️❤️
Do part 2, girl!!! I NEED it!!!
ok! thank you!!
Yup please part 2 love your vids
