Its really amazing that someone with your talent keeps trying to teach people. I really do suck at drawing (because i don't take time to learn and practice haha) but still i like to see your videos from time to time. I wish more people would find your channel :)
Dude. Dun fall into the watching art tube and making no art trap. Therein lies a dark and murky land haunted by the screams of broken dreams and wails of disillusioned ghosts. I was drawing on the train the other day and this little kid came up to me after peeking at my drawing for a few stops and asked me how I got ‘so good’ at drawing. I laughed, a tad embarrassed, and then showed him my pencil and paper and said you scribble on this using that and do that everyday for the rest of your life. The kid kind of stood there with his eyes wide open and the he smiled and I gave him my Blackwing and wished him luck. There is no such thing as talent in my opinion. There is only hunger to learn. Especially among professionals. A pro is really somebody who just keeps learning; who loves learning via creating and builds a life around that.
You couldn't have released this video at a better time. I just recently decided to start learning how to paint in PS from scratch, (I typically always did line art traditionally and painting digitally). Need all the help I can get. Thanks Trent.
An interesting bit about what Trent said at the 21min mark: Don't "focus" on copying other people's styles. It fundamentally warps your understanding of how to build art. You'll still get better yes , but not like a complete package that fundamental basics will provide you. So yeah, don't compare yourself to other artists, I made that mistake and it grinded me for a few years. The art is incredibly subjective and the dividends can vary WILDLY. Learning to draw is for fun and personal curiosity. Learning to be an "artist" is a whole other beast that requires networking, an image to your name and lots of presence. So past the basics, the most important thing is to make a name for yourself.
Sometimes when I'm not sure about deleting something or erase-painting, I make a mask and paint the parts I want to erase there. If I feel they are good I apply the mask, but if the experiment ended not like I expected, I delete the mask and all those changes disappear. It's a good method to prevent destroying your work by doing harsh editions on it or when you just want to experiment a bit with composition by hiding stuff from different layers.
I've been watching random Adobe product tutorials on UA-cam for at least 7 years now. Never has anything actually explained a few things to me that helped me to understand the ease of actually creating my own shit in Photoshop, rather than just cropping/editing everything else I find on the internet. I got myself an XP Pen Deco on the way and I'm finally ready to look at the basics of being a digital brush artist. I've always understood that the tools don't make the artist, but knowing how to use those tools while learning a new art will always make your life 420.69% easier. I've been a painter of lights on stage as a Light Designer in the live theatre space for over a decade, but fine art has always been so foreign to me (other than that time I posed for the nude class in college). It's time to expand and time to broaden my strokes. "A jack of all trades is a master of none, but often times better than a master of one." - Ol' Bill Shakespeare
This is helpful even for illustrators who're a little more experienced. I've been working with photoshop for years and still an idiot with keyboard shortcuts. Manually increasing brush sizes is time consuming and I've found it messes with my thought process. We're always learning, gotta stay humble and admit when we're not quite doing things right or efficiently. Thanks Trent, you've got yourself a new subscriber :)
For the mixer brush, think of it like blending makeup, where you can paint highlights and shadows, then blend them into your midtones. I've found an useful configuration to be: Enable clean brush after each stroke, wet: 5%, load: 20%, mix: 33%, flow: 33%. Those settings, combined with a brush that emulates one of those big, round, floofy makeup brushes, or simply a soft default round brush, will get you some decent blending action without being too over-powering.
My brain was screaming defiantly, when I noticed that you were drawing on the "background" layer. It took me such a long time to not forget to create a new layer *before* beginning to draw. My advice for beginners: Drawing on the background layer will create problems along the way. Unless you know what you're doing, *always create a new layer first* and draw on that! To this day it makes me angry that Photoshop doesn't immediately create a new layer for you, like many newer art programs do.
@@scorpodile9649 That's a fair point. Still, I wouldn't expect the automatic layer every time a document is opened, but exclusively when you're opening a new blank file. I may be wrong about this, but there seem to be rather few scenarios where you'd open a blank file to touch up a photo.
Heck yeah bro, I literally got photoshop two weeks ago and this video is really helpful I think it would be dope if you did a sequel with more complex features from photoshop
UGH this is so helpful thank you !!! I am about to start an internship with a game design studio next semester and I literally forgot how to use photoshop (my last photoshop class was 3 years ago) so this is so perfect !
Man, six months ago I had a digital illustration fever... I had never done it before, but now I can't stop! I am loving your videos! I still don't know how to use all the PS tools, but learning is being a wonderful adventure! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, it's making my life so much easier! 🤩
this is so so helpful! i bought a drawing tablet on a whim (i usually do traditional art) and thought i'd take advantage of my student access to photoshop, and this explains the basics so well! thank you so much :)
“Now we’re cooking- Now we’re cooking with something here” I love this, I’m going to use this from now on. But this is a really helpful video! I like the way that you explain things. Photoshop seems complicated but you explain things in a way that simplifies that.
thanks man just learning how to manipulate some of my hand architectural ink drawings for presentations, this was helpful and Im going to check out a few more.
this is amazing! i used to use adobe illustrator as i just started studying at university, but never got taught it properly and everyone would always say “why don’t you just use photoshop”. this is so helpful, thank you so much!
At 15:30ish - and theres a lot I learned myself but theres so many critical things I never knew. I can afford to go to art school... But I cannot afford the time. I fear I have wasted my talent by becoming a blue collared worker for the last two decades. At this point in time you have awakened me to a whole new world of hope. I cannot stop my day job (my retirement is the only thing I look forward to now). But with your help I'm on my way to enjoying what can say is a my one true passion in life. So... Thank you for this video.
what the hell. i didn't even know there was such cropping tool! everytime i did it before was manually change dimensions and just adjusting the image size! bless you for this simple relevation to me.
Thank you soooooo much - Love how easy and simple you make things look, others seem to do a lot of explaining, and sometimes it's just more confusing. You are giving us the basic tools to just get started - ready set draw! Keep on truckin'! :)
I'm so glad you made this video. I'm starting at art school next month and photoshop is the main program that we'll be using and I hadn't the foggiest idea of how to draw in photoshop before watching
One thing I like when I get on here and i see people teaching others art is when they say "MATERIAL". I love it!....If you are a noob take that tiny bit of advice with you....that one word alone can separate an amatur from a pro as far as their knowledge and experience. In game design school if you said anything other than material it was bad news LOL. Love the channel~!~!
Been using photoshop for the past 10 years, but never to draw. Don't really like the "feeling" of it 😕 I use it just to give the last "touches". Paint Tool Sai is my choice, it simple and very responsive, and really never crashed on me. And the watercolor "magic" you can do it's very pleasant 🙃 Not fancy as Photoshop, but that's what really make it perfect to me. It's just like having a sheet of paper right in front of you + the art tools! Very traditional feeling! Thanks for sharing, and again, for the great video Trent! Cheers!
Then Clip Studio Paint could be considered a combination of Photoshop x Paint Tool Sai. I just jumped on it a few weeks ago but I'm already amazing at all the features it has!
Thank you for going step by step. I've been struggling to expand my mediums into digital and found it difficult. This tutorial was extremely helpful. Thank you again, for teaching and sharing your techniques.
Honestly thank you so much for making this video! I’ve begun using photoshop from clip studio ahead of my concept art course and this helped me understand the interface so much!
Thank you, i dont need to get Adobe Illustrator now, I was deciding what to use, its been a long time. Just getting back into art after a 20 year hiatus and I'm rusty!!
Thank you so much! I previously drew 50/50 in Autodesk Sketchbook and Paint Tool Sai. I only really did colouring in Sai, because I dislike the sketching brushes there, but I preferred the colouring brushes over those in Sketchbook. I've managed to get Photoshop, because every time I see a profesisonal artist, they use it. I honestly think this is going to go far better than my last attempt, especially with this tutorial. For such a complicated program, the tutorial itself is appropriate for beginning artists who've decided to take the hard route. I love everything about it.
Thank you for making art content videos that are over 15 minutes long! There's a lot of art channels with short tutorial videos that are under 6-7 min long and they are worthless.
fantastic thank you for your tips. There as old Persian saying: The one who teaches is like a river who is not scared of running out of water. The one who keeps it for himself is like a small pond scared of running out.
I really got to learn so much from your video tutorial, Brilliant artwork and so well made, very nice and big big like, keep them rolling in and have safe and wonderful day.
Thank you for your little pep talk during the time-lapse. I guess for some reason I thought that because I got the brushes then I could draw like you, but you are right, that isn't the case. I'll keep working on it though.
This he helped me so much!!! Thank you!!! Other artists I watched just did a speed paint and didn't explain the tools only explained the process. I hope you make more vids like these in the future!😄
proud photoshop noob here, might not be for too long now though once i finish all these lessons, this is my first one of yours, and it helped a lot with interview/test i have tomorrow as i know how to start and quickly get to practice brushes and layers.
What is this JEWEL of tutorial and why am i seeing it just now!!! Thank you Thank you for such wonderful thorough tutorial on brushes that actually relate to painting and drawing on photoshop!!! I hate it when tutorial starts creating funky shapes for brushes - i mean, can i learn how to do more basic stuff that actually matter? Thank you again!!!!!
Watching this video from start to finish felt like 5 minutes went by. I probably have to rewatch a couple of times to truly comprehend all those tools.
Since you gave so so many tips to my journey to becoming a better illustrator as a design professional I can finally give something back. DPI or PPI doesn’t matter in this case. It won’t change the sharpness or amount of pixels. At all. It just virtually says how many it has per inch. Try making two files both at 3000x1500. And make them 72ppi and 300ppi. It won’t change the total amount of pixels or sharpness :) Thanks for all the videos!
I finally decide I can't avoid Photoshop anymore if I want cool brushes or texture. "Painting" in Illustrator is such a hassle. This is the first video that popped up. Holy cow it's the creator of Creed!
Just recently started using PS and I found out that you could draw on it and I was amazed haha, I know how to draw traditionally but never digital, I like your tutorial, very relaxed, very chill and helpfull 👍🏻👍🏻
I use Affinity Photo and it is almost close to Photoshop. I did not wanted to get into a monthly subscription for now. I’m just practicing and is for personal use. Thanks for sharing this video.
The man, the myth, the legend. Thanks for these videos. I just grabbed a new surface i7 and was looking to transition out of sketchbook but ps (was) daunting af
Thanks for your sharing these super helpful information, I think I need to learn more about layer in Photoshop, anyway, this video really helps me a lot in improving my digital drawing skills!!
GDay Trent...Cant thankyou enough for this video lesson. Just moved from pen and paper to digital art with a Wacom Cintiq 22 (awesome!!) but as a complete noob to photoshop I was genuinely struggling to make any headway. Very few tutorials actually go into the "nuts and bolts mechanics" of how to use the program to get results. Instant subscribe and like from me. Please keep up this sort of content.....cheers mate....👍
This is a great refresher! I've experimented with drawing in Photoshop quite a bit but have yet to try to complete an illustration there. With this video, I feel inspired to take a new step forward. Where can I download your brushes?
Hey trent, im 16 yo and just barely learning to draw and probably learn digital drawing in a few month so this video is really useful, probably you can give me or us like painting and color tips bcs that i really struggle a lot and i would love to improving it, anyway thanks your video really inspiring me :)
For colors if you rly want to be basic u can just look up some color pallets and it should show u a few. You should also try to learn color theory, there’s a few nice vids on that on yt. And idk much about painting since I normally draw in a more cartoonish style (so more solid lighting most of the time or just simple airbrushing). But yeah idk, that’s about the most advice I can give.
DPI or PPI doesn't matter if you never print your images and unlike resizing, it can be changed at any point before printing without quality loss. *What matters is your pixel count.* The more pixels your image has, the bigger DPI or PPI you can use when printing without having to resize your image (and possibly causing loss of quality). A 4k UHD image will look stunning in print. We used to print 1 meter posters from a 6MP DSLRs back in the day. They looked amazing. 4k is 12MP.
@TrentKaniuga do you have any additional photoshop based art tutorials to offer? Specifically for line drawing and tips/hot keys/how to use brushes in photoshop?! Thank you!
WHO JUST BOUGHT THEIR TABLET AND SO EXCITED TO USE IT??!!!!!! DIDNT KNOW ABOUT DRIVERS FOR PEN PRESSURE LMAO I WISH I COULD BUY FREETIME, FREETIME ISNT FREE LOL

Totally agree XD
SAME i was trying to learn photoshop but i was so confused and then i saw this video
And here too. I just started a graphic communications course at a local college and I need pointers.
u made it after 1 year ?
Same here! Wanted to study concept art a while ago, as i draw only on paper, now i am starting my own journey learning online ❤️🎨

You can just unlock the layer and rearrange/select and bring to diff layer

I hate and love photoshop ,Also every time you post a video, It's like you read my mind..
I love digital art for the symmetry tool, it feels like magic! And also copy and pasting while doing weapon designs
I love and hate photoshop too been using it for years and I keep wanting to drop it but I just cant let it go DX
thank you so much 💕you save my life✨🪄
Ok, you sold me on your tutorials. I'll check em out.
Haha. I’ve been using i for the dropper and switching back to b for brush. I didn’t realize that ALT is way more effective to bring the dropper up
Awesome video, learnt alot when I started learning a while ago. Never got around to thanking you, you helped a lot
Just recently started using PS and I found out that you could draw on it and I was amazed haha, I know how to draw traditionally but never digital, I like your tutorial, very relaxed, very chill and helpfull 👍🏻👍🏻
I use Affinity Photo and it is almost close to Photoshop. I did not wanted to get into a monthly subscription for now. I’m just practicing and is for personal use. Thanks for sharing this video.
this is awesome thank you, hopefully one day i will be able to improve my photoshop drawing been stuck on that for years
The man, the myth, the legend. Thanks for these videos. I just grabbed a new surface i7 and was looking to transition out of sketchbook but ps (was) daunting af
Great video! Thank you so much. Very useful to learn smth new and recall smth old as well😊
Thanks for your sharing these super helpful information, I think I need to learn more about layer in Photoshop, anyway, this video really helps me a lot in improving my digital drawing skills!!
This is excellent! I appreciate your lessons. I'm just starting out, so I was very excited to find your channel. Thanks again! Happy New Year!
GDay Trent...Cant thankyou enough for this video lesson. Just moved from pen and paper to digital art with a Wacom Cintiq 22 (awesome!!) but as a complete noob to photoshop I was genuinely struggling to make any headway. Very few tutorials actually go into the "nuts and bolts mechanics" of how to use the program to get results. Instant subscribe and like from me. Please keep up this sort of content.....cheers mate....👍
Dude thank you for this I've used procreate for a couple years and clip studio for awhile but I have to learn PS so thank you for this
This was extremely helpful. Thank you!
You're a lifesaver. Thank you so much!
DUDE! This is amazing. thank you for sharing this.
Wow. Just the video i was looking for
Super helpful tutorial, thank you!! :)
AMAZINGGG!! thankyou very much!! it's really helping
Super useful, thank you very much!
Despite knowing all this things, I still really enjoy this guide. I wish to had it few years ago, great job!
Thank you so much for making this, I was just about to give up on photoshop being a viable drawing program.
This is a great refresher! I've experimented with drawing in Photoshop quite a bit but have yet to try to complete an illustration there. With this video, I feel inspired to take a new step forward. Where can I download your brushes?
Great video, thanks. Subscribed.
Thank you so much for this tutorial, Trent!
Hey trent, im 16 yo and just barely learning to draw and probably learn digital drawing in a few month so this video is really useful, probably you can give me or us like painting and color tips bcs that i really struggle a lot and i would love to improving it, anyway thanks your video really inspiring me :)
For colors if you rly want to be basic u can just look up some color pallets and it should show u a few. You should also try to learn color theory, there’s a few nice vids on that on yt. And idk much about painting since I normally draw in a more cartoonish style (so more solid lighting most of the time or just simple airbrushing). But yeah idk, that’s about the most advice I can give.
Amazing guide, well done this was a joy to watch.
I love this guide
DPI or PPI doesn't matter if you never print your images and unlike resizing, it can be changed at any point before printing without quality loss. *What matters is your pixel count.* The more pixels your image has, the bigger DPI or PPI you can use when printing without having to resize your image (and possibly causing loss of quality). A 4k UHD image will look stunning in print. We used to print 1 meter posters from a 6MP DSLRs back in the day. They looked amazing. 4k is 12MP.
i'm pretty good at drawing but i just got me a graphic tablet and it looks like i can't draw at all. This video really helped me
appreciate you posting this video!
Thanks for making such helpful content!
