OK. I know that this doesn't happen a lot but still. When I had just moved to a new town and didn't know anybody my mom made me go out and find at least one person who could be my friend. And you've gotta know that I'm a very socially awkward person. So I went out and walked around the park and saw two girls. I walked up to them looked at one of them straight in the eyes. For a few seconds. And then said "Eh.... wanna be friends?" she said sure. Well that was awkard. But after that we also stood there for GOD KNOWS HOW LONG and then we asked each other what our names were. We are best friends now. 4 years have passed and we still are best friends. Strange right?
Thats how I make friends. Or a friend will shove me into a group of strangers and say "her, this is your new friend" and i'll just kinda sit there and die inside.
Your art style is so nice and aesthetically pleasing, whenever I watch one of your videos I always have the sudden urge to get on my computer and start drawing!
yeah all this "let's be friends so i get free art" just recently happend to me ewe at a convention a guy was like, the whole time "you're weird/crazy/and so on" towards me, but kept the contact with me, dragging me to draw something for him -.- it was so annoying. he wasn't even happy, with what i drew him or that it took some time because i have my own life too .__. and i just heard from an artist i know (he's quiet a bit popular, but still wrote me first) that he gets a lot of this messages daily, from fangirls |D that they all wanna be friends with him, just to get free art .-. and i was like "trust me, i'd be never like this, since if i want to get something drawn, i do it myself" so yeah ouo'
ughhh that really sucks!! i hate how there are so many people like this ;A; sorry to hear that this happened to you. many people tell me of similar situations and every time the person requesting art never seem satisfied with it. people don't seem to respect artists and the work they put in each drawing!! -_-
LeslieLu Marie thanks qnq and it's fine uwu but yes, this seems to be a common thing (sadly) ._. also many people don't see 'art' as a real hobby to put work and money in ._. which is really sad too. but i go to far with this topic rn |D sorry
LeslieLu Marie I don't share my art so I'm mostly cool but people around me that I don't know are still asking " Hey u wanna be friends you could draw me or my pets for me or something" I know It's F@#$¥*g horrible.

One of the reasons I’m friends with someone I know is bc they watch anime I like. Then we can talk about anime together. And she’s an artist. So we can freaking art together. It’s amazing.
Echellia Xanthis I make friends by actually making friendly acquaintances and thinking they're my friends but I never actually contribute anything to what would be a friendship because I'm so shy
When someone calls themselves self taught they mean they have never taken art classes or went to art school. I consider myself self taught though no one is really self taught.
Actually, my BFF just started with me butting into a conversation in 3rd grade. :3 I never asked her to be my friend, and half my other friendships start with a word or too.
The only way I'm able to make friends is hearing a reference about something I like and just s t a r e at them until they ask me if I knew what they meant and then I'll nod violently why am I like this
Same! I hate it when people on amino message me or invite me to random chats without asking or even knowing me. Its just so awkward to me when this happens.
Sometimes I put the "I'm not trying to be rude thing" at the end of my comment if I read it over and it sounds like it could be taken in a rude way. I hate when people think I'm being rude, so I check it over and put that in when I think people may get offended, but I'm always overreacting and nothing happens.
Self taught artists means teaching yourself, not being taught by a teacher or a class. That's why it's called Self taught. Teaching yourself! All those things like looking at pictures and practicing, those are also called being self taught. Watching tutorials is another thing of course but the main thing is that self taught is teaching yourself.
Also my life as a middle schooler: Me : *is drawing* Some random fuck : hey whatcha drawin'? Me : oh I'm drawing my oc- WHAT THE HECK!?" The random fuck just scribbled loser on my fucking drawing The random fuck's friend : *is dying on laughter* Seriously wtf is funny!? That's so mean...-_- Another time this happened A "friend" : hey thanks for drawing for me Me : no problem "Friend" : but the problem is,the eyes is too big,the hair is so fluffy,the other student draws better than you Me : um...ok thanks for making me feel bad for my drawing your fuckface (I didn't actually say that) That's fucking rude y'know -_-
Omg! I am actually a huge fan of you! You inspired me to start digital art. Me and my friend love your videos! We make animations together and we watch your videos to improve our art. Thank you for being an inspiration to us!
this is so true omg. Like yeah they be like can we be friends and I'm here like well ok. Than they expect me to draw them stuff for free anytime like no. When I try to befriend someone I just comment on their stuff and talk to them a lot I don't ask to be their friends because i feel like I'm pressuring them? just taking is enough lmao
"I literally dont know a single person that went up to a stranger and was like hey do you want to become friends and they became friends" ........that was literally how i met one of my best friends XD but we were 7 so i cant blame you
back to the friend thing thats how me and my best friend became friends except we were in kindergarten and didnt know how to make friends but 8 years later and shes still here
This video was fun to listen to and true. I think it's called passive aggressive when they try to pass off a comment or a critique not being mean. I hate that but my stuff isn't popular enough to get those comments yet XD.
you should close your eyes and draw random squiggles and then randomly select one of your OC's and turn the squiggles into something with your oc (idk if that makes since basically draw squiggles and then pick an oc and turn the squiggles into basically the main part or a big part of the picture you know?)
@3:50 One of my friends is my friend because they came up to my best friend in their math class and exclaimed "WE ARE GOING TO BE BEST FRIENDS" and then bam they were friends. Ik it's crazy but it happened and they got a good laugh xD
Also I listen to your speedpaints and watch them while I'm drawing and I just had the stupidest mistake ever, I couldn't figure out why nothing was on my canvas when i tried to draw even though I wasn't drawing in transparent, it was black. I was about to shut down my computer and noticed I was using the blur tool..... gj, props to me
first off, im new to your channel.... and second.... i hate when people do the "can i be your friend?" thing....im not the best at art or anything and im not very social (i was about to go into a panic attack just thinking about typing this out for everyone to see) like this one time, i was sitting in one class within the first month of my 8th grade year and i was drawing a picture in my sketch book.... well this one girl walked up to me and saw my drawing so out of nowhere after watching me draw over my shoulder she suddenly scared the jabeezus out of me by practically yelling something similar to "can i be your friend" i thought it was weird but i gave her a chance and we got "close" enough to actually share contact details with each other so we added one another on skype and talked in an audio call for the first time and i shared my pc screen so she could see what i was drawing and we did that for a while and then one day she asked me if i could draw her OC so i did and after that one picture she just EXPLODED with requests and it got so bad to the point were she spammed me so i just ended up staying off skype and avoiding her at all cost and she eventually calmed herself to where i could talked to her again so i did a dumb thing by drawing her another pic... then she blew up again but this time i told her to stop it.... she requested again and again and i finally said no but when i did she threaten me by saying she would spread a very embarrassing secret about me all over school so i just played it cool and blocked her from everything and told the school councilor about her threats and they fixed and i dont go to school with her anymore luckily.... but i hate feeling used like that.... we actually got pretty close.... sorry for such a long story XD
Angel Pastel That really sucks. I remember a time when I ask a "friend" (she ask me if we could be friends) for her opinion of a story of mine and SHE FREAKING STOLE IT. I was really mad, I blocked her in every social media and cry a lot, I was really proud of my idea ;-; Other time, I worked in a manga team and I DO ALL THE JOB. The "bosses" just kept rushing me, but they never helped me. So now I'm hella scared to start a project with someone online ;-; Altough I'm doing another manga with friends that I actually know in real life.Thank good now I have help.
im a "self tought artist" meaning i could draw without looking at a picture or being in art class but i do now have an art style inspired by u!!! ;3 and by steven universe!!!! it sounds wierd but i like notice things like if someone draws their art with a dark brown outline instead of a black one (like me) so thats how i draw my art now. LOVE UR CHANNEL BTW!!! THX😍😍😍😍
I'm self-taught in drawing animals... I started to drawing cats when I was in sixth grade and I wasn't able to get on the computer a whole lot. So I had not refs or anything. Humans however, I could draw them without a ref or anything, but, I usually look up refs for hands and clothes. So would that be "Not self-taught"?
I hate it when someone says the someone's art is horrible and they shouldn't have done it. My sister said something like this to one of my favorite artist and it hurt my feeling for them and it just made me mad
Just so I won't be ranting to myself... Being 'Self taught' is teaching yourself. In art classes they have teachers showing examples of other people's art, right? Telling you how they did it or how you can do something similar probably. Being self taught means that you find out how an artist does this or that on your own or find tutorials on your own. Unless you are strictly drawing only what you see in nature and not looking at any other drawings, everyone learns from other artists. That's part of learning. But yes, "Self taught" means you've never had classes and were never given assignments to do this or that to learn. You found your own way of doing things and learned from that. Just had to get that out of the way because I don't need anything else on top of anxiety today. Keep up the good work
When I was in kindergarten this girl came up to me, on accident I think, and said, "Wanna hang out?" It's been seven years and were still best friends. Funny how such small things can have such a big impact.
If you were to start drawing something by just drawing the leg or head or whatever of the thing you're drawing, how can you start to draw the rest of the object? Would you just jump into drawing the whole body of the object you're drawing?
"I don't mean to seem rude..." literally my life, I always get "I don't mean to seem rude but your really short, like unnaturally short" like okay...? What am I supposed to say to that?
i'm so socially awkward and don't know how to make conversations, instead i observe ppl irl and then ask them if we can be friends and that's how most of my friendships start xD
Something I think should be said is that it is okay to have pet peeves. Having pet peeves does NOT make you a bad person. Everyone has them. Everyone is annoyed by one thing or another; it's just a part of being human. No one is all sugar cakes & butterflies. So don't worry too much about others thinking you're mean. :)
All I did to become an artist is I looked at my best friend when she drew and tried to do what she did and then I started to do it by myself and from being a younge younge child I made a lot of weird art and terrible book with picture and then I start to think of way to draw and one I remember is drawing dresses with huge swoop.
I feel this one girl in class just hung out with me because I'm the artistic kid. I could tell, because once I stopped taking her requests for free, she stopped interacting with me. I hate it when people are like, "Hey could you draw me something? ". I have a life too, you know. Just cuz I'm the kid who can draw doesn't mean requests are welcome.
I have really bad social anxiety, but somehow when I was in Year 7 I managed to make friends with my best friend aha I was out in the playground while we was getting ready to walk home, and I just walked up to her and asked if she wanted to be my friend. It was so awkward I s2g My other best friend had a kind of weirder story lmao: We was walking down the music corridor and she was talking to her friends about anime or something, and I just started to follow her and then we became really close friends lmfao
This is actually kind of ironic because one of the friends I made was literally by me going up to them and saying "hey, do you wanna be friends?". So like in 6th grade in the gym I was all alone I had literally no one to talk to I didn't really know anyone friend wise and I saw this girl all alone in the back of the class. I walked up to her and I said well you know "do you want to be friends with me?"and she said "sure." And did cute lil thing were I said "yes!" like you know how when you were really happy and ya do the whole thing with your arm and what not. Literally, right after that all throughout middle school me and her were really good friends of course towards the end it kinda crashed and went down hill. I'm still decent friends with her but we don't really keep in much contact anymore except for one class.
my old bff became my bff in reception and she joined half way through the year and on her first day I went up to her and said " hi, wanna be best friends?:-D" we were friends for 5 years and now she doesn't respond to my texts :-| I had one friend other than older second cousins at the time at the school and my older cousins were yr 4 anyway xD
When She talked about the self taught artist yeah that is exactly what i mean when i call myself a self taught artist I never took an art class, i took my own time and taught myself through videos and things like that yeah...
"my characters have no kinks! they are pure and free of sins!!!" and I think it's a good idea to just ignore the messages asking to be friends, I would panic if someone asked to be my friend randomly, and you have a right to say no, but that could get rumors spread about you if that person gets angry
i became friends with my best friend on a ride at cedar point. she literally just looked over at me and asked if we could be friends and we've been friends ever since, so...
Do you use a blank drawing pad or one with a screen? Do you use paper under the pen and trace from what you drawn with pencil? My mind is out in space.
In 4th grade my teacher *cough cough* HATED ME. Like I swear I thought she was the devil and she thought I was the mini devil. I was like a little rebel. I would do almost nothing and just draw on my worksheets. I would do this because 1. I wanted to escape from my teacher and reality 2. Drawing was my only release as a kid. 3. I LUV DRAWIN!!! And dear god help the poor soul that tries to take away my pencil while I'm sketching.
many of these must be art problems!! and omfg i forgot i had named the file that lmao i try my best to name things with actual words instead of key smashes because i'm afraid of losing things!!
+LeslieLu Marie omg yes I used to just "akfnfuek" all of them but it's just impossibly unorganized lol I'm a little better now but I have way too many folders inside folders some w only like 1 thing inside, i have a serious organization problems tbh lol
so this is my weird friend story, so when I was young I went to a pool party and I was swimming and this one kid said "hey! can you beat me at a race" 3 years later and we are still friends
In primary one while on the bus this girl my age peeked over the seat and was like "HIIIIIII!!!!!!!" and i was like "Hi?" and then she said "CAN WE BE FRIENDS?????" and I said "Okay" we are best friends now
I am a Self-Taught Artist- I never took a art class i never used refrences I never got tips i never asked someone how to do somethin i did everything BY MY SELF but i will ask for criticism Thats what i think a Self taught artist is for me atleast :3
" My characters are pure and free of sin "
how do you live?
Yus fam
Lauren Bastians Yes you shouldn't have
Oh..... Purity isn't normal... oh no! I'm RUINED. No, I'm just... below average. Below Average. Below... *reduces to whisper* 100 - 99 = me....
This comment has 69 likes.. heh..
ScribbleDerp I like to draw sexy characters and also sin is my spirit animal 👀
OK. I know that this doesn't happen a lot but still.

We are best friends now. 4 years have passed and we still are best friends.
Strange right?
Kat Yep
Thats how I make friends. Or a friend will shove me into a group of strangers and say "her, this is your new friend" and i'll just kinda sit there and die inside.
Ashley LaFond xD
Yup
im just kinda like, Hello i'm your new friend. I like demon triangles and half ghost boys. no one wants to be friends after that
I'd be your friend Ashely LaFond!
Your art style is so nice and aesthetically pleasing, whenever I watch one of your videos I always have the sudden urge to get on my computer and start drawing!
Same!!! I'm going through really bad art-block right now, and I'm using Leslie's videos as a way of 'forcing' myself to doodle more~
sameeee
The moment I clicked on the video I imminently got inspired and just went "Oh shit here we go again"
Why is the file called f**k Micah? XD
i hate him!!
Dila Elf wow calm the capitals and it's son not sun. The sun is a big star
but he is a star
Dila Elf How is an Incorrect Cat right?
LeslieLu Marie wow senpai noticed me, my name is mica lmao
yeah all this "let's be friends so i get free art" just recently happend to me ewe at a convention a guy was like, the whole time "you're weird/crazy/and so on" towards me, but kept the contact with me, dragging me to draw something for him -.- it was so annoying. he wasn't even happy, with what i drew him or that it took some time because i have my own life too .__.
and i just heard from an artist i know (he's quiet a bit popular, but still wrote me first) that he gets a lot of this messages daily, from fangirls |D that they all wanna be friends with him, just to get free art .-. and i was like "trust me, i'd be never like this, since if i want to get something drawn, i do it myself" so yeah ouo'
ughhh that really sucks!! i hate how there are so many people like this ;A; sorry to hear that this happened to you. many people tell me of similar situations and every time the person requesting art never seem satisfied with it. people don't seem to respect artists and the work they put in each drawing!! -_-
LeslieLu Marie thanks qnq and it's fine uwu
but yes, this seems to be a common thing (sadly) ._. also many people don't see 'art' as a real hobby to put work and money in ._. which is really sad too. but i go to far with this topic rn |D sorry
LeslieLu Marie I don't share my art so I'm mostly cool but people around me that I don't know are still asking " Hey u wanna be friends you could draw me or my pets for me or something" I know It's F@#$¥*g horrible.

I don't wanna sound rude but... your art is so good it makes me cry
"My characters are pure and free of sin" lol I love how you said that
One of the reasons I’m friends with someone I know is bc they watch anime I like. Then we can talk about anime together. And she’s an artist. So we can freaking art together. It’s amazing.
I hate when people who don't care or try get attention and people who do care and try and want to improve get nothing.
I start friendships by shouting jokingly at people most the time and when I first meet them I'm usually quite violent in a joking way. I'm stupid.
I make friends by teasing them. Like taking their stuff and holding it over their heads.
And I wonder why I don't have many friends.
Echellia Xanthis *chokes you while saying "it's just a joke haha haha!"*
Echellia Xanthis
I make friends by actually making friendly acquaintances and thinking they're my friends but I never actually contribute anything to what would be a friendship because I'm so shy
I get friends by making crude, vulgar, and inappropriate jokes. Cuz those are funny.
_i only had the "lets be friends so you draw me" once_
_fortunately_
_i didnt become friends with that person tho_
When someone calls themselves self taught they mean they have never taken art classes or went to art school.
I consider myself self taught though no one is really self taught.
Literally_Melvin Your Profile Pic gives my life xD
(I like Anthony that's why)
Wait, does self-taught like you taught yourself how to draw by illustrating the objects you see?
Most of my friendships start with "Will you be my friend?" =_=
Yaunie13 mine start with "please,I'm lonely 😭 "
Actually, my BFF just started with me butting into a conversation in 3rd grade. :3 I never asked her to be my friend, and half my other friendships start with a word or too.
Mine are "Do you like anime ?" Not many people at my school so... ;-;
The only way I'm able to make friends is hearing a reference about something I like and just s t a r e at them until they ask me if I knew what they meant and then I'll nod violently why am I like this
Piluu Alvarez that's how I became friends with my best friend
your style of shading feels like Breath of the wild. Like you draw this anime style art but gives it like a cartoonish type of shading. like in BOTW
Like not to be rude but I love your art and you're awesome
Camryn White It's the opposite of rude, m8. Think I agree.
Keep it simple But Bearly i agree lmao
Same! I hate it when people on amino message me or invite me to random chats without asking or even knowing me. Its just so awkward to me when this happens.
I just want to say that I love how well your oc's are thought out and how unique your style is 💙
Sometimes I put the "I'm not trying to be rude thing" at the end of my comment if I read it over and it sounds like it could be taken in a rude way. I hate when people think I'm being rude, so I check it over and put that in when I think people may get offended, but I'm always overreacting and nothing happens.
This art looks freaking gorgeous
"I shaved my arms so now I'm really smooth"
oml literally me lmao
Self taught artists means teaching yourself, not being taught by a teacher or a class. That's why it's called Self taught. Teaching yourself! All those things like looking at pictures and practicing, those are also called being self taught. Watching tutorials is another thing of course but the main thing is that self taught is teaching yourself.
Lol I just realized
On the top it says "fuck micah" 😂
Also my life as a middle schooler:
Me : *is drawing*
Some random fuck : hey whatcha drawin'?
Me : oh I'm drawing my oc- WHAT THE HECK!?"
The random fuck just scribbled loser on my fucking drawing
The random fuck's friend : *is dying on laughter*
Seriously wtf is funny!? That's so mean...-_-
Another time this happened
A "friend" : hey thanks for drawing for me
Me : no problem
"Friend" : but the problem is,the eyes is too big,the hair is so fluffy,the other student draws better than you
Me : um...ok thanks for making me feel bad for my drawing your fuckface (I didn't actually say that)
That's fucking rude y'know -_-
SunF _ujoshi That suckkss... Good thing I'm invisible so that I don't have to deal with "those kinda people"
In the first situation, I would've just slapped him then and there.
Damn is it just me or does it feel great after you shave. Like I feel like a new person
I don't mean to be rude but you're an amazing artist and i fully support you and your art.
Omg! I am actually a huge fan of you! You inspired me to start digital art. Me and my friend love your videos! We make animations together and we watch your videos to improve our art. Thank you for being an inspiration to us!
I really really appreciate you more because of this, Leslie :D
your art is amazing! wow you have inspired me to do more digital art! c:
"Are pure and free of sin"
Must be nice :/
Why am I tempted to combine all of these in one comment.....
3:47 .................. yeah that happened to me. and i was forced to say yes because i was in so much pressure....... it sucked.
this is so true omg. Like yeah they be like can we be friends and I'm here like well ok. Than they expect me to draw them stuff for free anytime like no. When I try to befriend someone I just comment on their stuff and talk to them a lot I don't ask to be their friends because i feel like I'm pressuring them? just taking is enough lmao
*talking I can't spell lmfai
Ohh the irony
much IRONY X3
Darn it. I watch so many of your vids it would be a crime not to sub... so I finally did
"I literally dont know a single person that went up to a stranger and was like hey do you want to become friends and they became friends" ........that was literally how i met one of my best friends XD but we were 7 so i cant blame you
OMFG I WAS GOING THROUGH THE UA-camRS SHE IS SUBSCRIBED TO AND SHE SUBSCRIBED TO MARKIPLIER!!!!I LOVE YOUUUUUUUU
I'm not self-taught. I binge watch your tutorials until I learn how to draw eyes.
I mean u say that... but i'm p sure that luca is SUPER kinky
What if PAYA was the kinky one of the relationship
Oh yesss~
Cinnaqay NO I DONT WANT MY LITTLE CINNAMON ROLL TO BE THE KINKY ONE
daotakugirl
Your cinnammon roll is ded.
Im a garbage human being
back to the friend thing
thats how me and my best friend became friends
except we were in kindergarten and didnt know how to make friends
but 8 years later and shes still here
How do you keep your line art so smooth? I normally have a tough time doing this on my tablet.
nick stgelais do fast but accurate strokes and press cntrl z until you get it perfect
Im new to your channel if that makes seance. I love your style. And you are very pretty and talented.
This video was fun to listen to and true. I think it's called passive aggressive when they try to pass off a comment or a critique not being mean. I hate that but my stuff isn't popular enough to get those comments yet XD.
you should close your eyes and draw random squiggles and then randomly select one of your OC's and turn the squiggles into something with your oc (idk if that makes since basically draw squiggles and then pick an oc and turn the squiggles into basically the main part or a big part of the picture you know?)
so smoooootttttthhhhh
your art is awesome :)
wow your art makes mine look like shit
wtf its so good
The file name is just... beautiful
@3:50 One of my friends is my friend because they came up to my best friend in their math class and exclaimed "WE ARE GOING TO BE BEST FRIENDS" and then bam they were friends. Ik it's crazy but it happened and they got a good laugh xD

she also tried to steal my art multiple times >:( ......
Angel Pastel That really sucks. I remember a time when I ask a "friend" (she ask me if we could be friends) for her opinion of a story of mine and SHE FREAKING STOLE IT. I was really mad, I blocked her in every social media and cry a lot, I was really proud of my idea ;-;
Other time, I worked in a manga team and I DO ALL THE JOB. The "bosses" just kept rushing me, but they never helped me. So now I'm hella scared to start a project with someone online ;-; Altough I'm doing another manga with friends that I actually know in real life.Thank good now I have help.
Angel Pastel Judgeing by your pro pic, I don't know why people would want art from you. It looks like you used a base.
thats my old art, i havent had time to update sorry..... besides my art on paper is way better
so yes at the time i did use a base but since then i have gotten better and now i dont need a base, just a reference to look off of
im a "self tought artist" meaning i could draw without looking at a picture or being in art class but i do now have an art style inspired by u!!! ;3 and by steven universe!!!! it sounds wierd but i like notice things like if someone draws their art with a dark brown outline instead of a black one (like me) so thats how i draw my art now. LOVE UR CHANNEL BTW!!! THX😍😍😍😍
HOW ARE YOU SO GOOOD?!?!?!?!?!
Wolves and Bears a magical word called "Practiceeeeeeeeee" :D
i thought 'practice' only had one 'E'
For some reason rice alpaca reminds me of paggie world
I walked up to a guy in pre-school and said "wanna be friends". He is now my best friend and now I'm 15 so yeah.
Could u do a video of how to draw hands and do a think outline around the person please
"My characters do not have any kinks" *frowns*
I'm self-taught in drawing animals... I started to drawing cats when I was in sixth grade and I wasn't able to get on the computer a whole lot. So I had not refs or anything. Humans however, I could draw them without a ref or anything, but, I usually look up refs for hands and clothes. So would that be "Not self-taught"?
I hate it when someone says the someone's art is horrible and they shouldn't have done it. My sister said something like this to one of my favorite artist and it hurt my feeling for them and it just made me mad
Just so I won't be ranting to myself... Being 'Self taught' is teaching yourself. In art classes they have teachers showing examples of other people's art, right? Telling you how they did it or how you can do something similar probably. Being self taught means that you find out how an artist does this or that on your own or find tutorials on your own. Unless you are strictly drawing only what you see in nature and not looking at any other drawings, everyone learns from other artists. That's part of learning. But yes, "Self taught" means you've never had classes and were never given assignments to do this or that to learn. You found your own way of doing things and learned from that.
Just had to get that out of the way because I don't need anything else on top of anxiety today. Keep up the good work
When I was in kindergarten this girl came up to me, on accident I think, and said, "Wanna hang out?" It's been seven years and were still best friends. Funny how such small things can have such a big impact.
I don't mean to be rude, but I love pasta.
SkinnyLlamaBeans lol
If you were to start drawing something by just drawing the leg or head or whatever of the thing you're drawing, how can you start to draw the rest of the object? Would you just jump into drawing the whole body of the object you're drawing?

Pff- that's how I became friends with the majority of my friends in grade prep XD
"I don't mean to seem rude..." literally my life, I always get "I don't mean to seem rude but your really short, like unnaturally short" like okay...? What am I supposed to say to that?
I just noticed I have the same jacket as Micah (sorry if I misspelled) it's cool and funny😂
I edit pictures alot and draw alot too so I get the question of can I be your friend alot so this video is very relatable :)
your not a bad person, but just very truthful
"I'm really smooth" xD
i'm so socially awkward and don't know how to make conversations, instead i observe ppl irl and then ask them if we can be friends and that's how most of my friendships start xD
Something I think should be said is that it is okay to have pet peeves. Having pet peeves does NOT make you a bad person. Everyone has them. Everyone is annoyed by one thing or another; it's just a part of being human. No one is all sugar cakes & butterflies. So don't worry too much about others thinking you're mean. :)
All I did to become an artist is I looked at my best friend when she drew and tried to do what she did and then I started to do it by myself and from being a younge younge child I made a lot of weird art and terrible book with picture and then I start to think of way to draw and one I remember is drawing dresses with huge swoop.
cool OC and i get you about that of people telling you be my friend
thanks!! yeah, it can be very uncomfortable haha :"D
question when you draw yourself do you still call it OC
I feel this one girl in class just hung out with me because I'm the artistic kid. I could tell, because once I stopped taking her requests for free, she stopped interacting with me. I hate it when people are like, "Hey could you draw me something? ". I have a life too, you know. Just cuz I'm the kid who can draw doesn't mean requests are welcome.
I have really bad social anxiety, but somehow when I was in Year 7 I managed to make friends with my best friend aha
I was out in the playground while we was getting ready to walk home, and I just walked up to her and asked if she wanted to be my friend. It was so awkward I s2g
My other best friend had a kind of weirder story lmao: We was walking down the music corridor and she was talking to her friends about anime or something, and I just started to follow her and then we became really close friends lmfao
Can we be friends? :D
Ah the irony. :')
This is actually kind of ironic because one of the friends I made was literally by me going up to them and saying "hey, do you wanna be friends?". So like in 6th grade in the gym I was all alone I had literally no one to talk to I didn't really know anyone friend wise and I saw this girl all alone in the back of the class. I walked up to her and I said well you know "do you want to be friends with me?"and she said "sure." And did cute lil thing were I said "yes!" like you know how when you were really happy and ya do the whole thing with your arm and what not. Literally, right after that all throughout middle school me and her were really good friends of course towards the end it kinda crashed and went down hill. I'm still decent friends with her but we don't really keep in much contact anymore except for one class.
my old bff became my bff in reception and she joined half way through the year and on her first day I went up to her and said " hi, wanna be best friends?:-D" we were friends for 5 years and now she doesn't respond to my texts :-| I had one friend other than older second cousins at the time at the school and my older cousins were yr 4 anyway xD
imagine if she said no to being friends :')
When She talked about the self taught artist
yeah that is exactly what i mean when i call myself a self taught artist
I never took an art class, i took my own time and taught myself through videos and things like that
yeah...
"my characters have no kinks! they are pure and free of sins!!!"
and I think it's a good idea to just ignore the messages asking to be friends, I would panic if someone asked to be my friend randomly, and you have a right to say no, but that could get rumors spread about you if that person gets angry
My question is, how would you message someone in pursuit of friendship then?
"art style challenge" ?
or maybe try and draw in in one of your old art styles? :O
"AND IM HERE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT MY CHARACTER'S ARE *PURE* AND FREE OF *SIN* "
i became friends with my best friend on a ride at cedar point. she literally just looked over at me and asked if we could be friends and we've been friends ever since, so...
Do you use a blank drawing pad or one with a screen? Do you use paper under the pen and trace from what you drawn with pencil? My mind is out in space.
3:53 I've done that to someone and now we're best friends ;D
In 4th grade my teacher *cough cough* HATED ME. Like I swear I thought she was the devil and she thought I was the mini devil. I was like a little rebel. I would do almost nothing and just draw on my worksheets. I would do this because 1. I wanted to escape from my teacher and reality 2. Drawing was my only release as a kid. 3. I LUV DRAWIN!!! And dear god help the poor soul that tries to take away my pencil while I'm sketching.
as an artist (albeit significantly less popular) all of this is 100% #relatable
also "fuck micah.mdp" I do the same thing with naming my art files lol I'm awful at it lots of "ughhhs" and "another Jasper"s
many of these must be art problems!! and omfg i forgot i had named the file that lmao i try my best to name things with actual words instead of key smashes because i'm afraid of losing things!!
+LeslieLu Marie omg yes I used to just "akfnfuek" all of them but it's just impossibly unorganized lol I'm a little better now but I have way too many folders inside folders some w only like 1 thing inside, i have a serious organization problems tbh lol
My friend we met at like 8, and she asked me if we could be friends straight on, and we are still friends, going onto 6 years
A pet peve I have is when someone says "brb" in a speedpaint because they can just edit it out
so this is my weird friend story, so when I was young I went to a pool party and I was swimming and this one kid said "hey! can you beat me at a race" 3 years later and we are still friends
I dont mean to be mean but,.. i absolutly love your art! keep up the great work!
(imsosorryxD)
what does kink mean?
This is kinda a suggestion and a question but have you tried making a comic? I bet you'd do great to be honest
Did you make a "bad time" undertale joke?
second pet peeve or topic SSSSSOOOOOOOO TRUE.
In primary one while on the bus this girl my age peeked over the seat and was like "HIIIIIII!!!!!!!" and i was like "Hi?" and then she said "CAN WE BE FRIENDS?????" and I said "Okay"
we are best friends now
I am a Self-Taught Artist-
I never took a art class
i never used refrences
I never got tips
i never asked someone how to do somethin
i did everything BY MY SELF
but i will ask for criticism
Thats what i think a Self taught artist is for me atleast :3
I'm always like "I'm not being rude I swear!" because I'm scared of being misunderstood and hated °^°
Cool video ! :)
