    I’ve been doing both trad and digital for years and I have felt like I can always make a traditional piece look more impressive because of the texture the medium and the paper/canvas offers. The benefit of digital is definitely a mixed media look, plus it’s not messy and has no dry time. The endless editing digital offers gnaws at me and sometimes I can’t help but think “this piece would look so much better in oil”. The overwhelming push to be perfect with digital has been one of the motivators to get me back into learning some new traditional materials like oil pastels and watercolour. Best of luck to you!

    I love this video (UA-cam finally recommending Quality vids!) It's the perfect video to explain different art mediums to a complete Noob who is just starting out. I quickly shared it with all my friends who bugged me about this exact question.
    I love using different mediums for my art and I struggle with digital....it just doesn't give the yum feeling of wet paint on your hands.
    This video was super fun to watch!!

    Regardless of where you are in your journey, these are sick! Kudos on you sticking it and pushing through the process. Your small-sized "tests" are some of my favorites in that style. Gives me some good inspiration for what I'm looking for whenever I get an artist to do my book art.

    I found your channel on TikTok and I’m so glad I found you! I painted digitally for a little while but have mostly painted traditionally but I am a firm believer in finding “your” medium and I loved what you talked about in this video.

    Your presentation and videography were very pleasant to watch! I'm looking forward to the future of this channel!
    For anyone who doesn't want to buy a wet palette, just use some wet paper towel with a piece of parchment paper on top (baking paper, not wax paper).

    This video is incredible. Exactly what I've been thinking about lately. As somebody trying to build myself up commercially as an artist, I'm trying to consider what kinds of things will hold "worth" to people going forward into this AI hellscape that has been unleashed. I really feel like traditional/physical art is going to have a huge comeback among former digital artists. It's the only way I can see that you can 100% prove to yourself and others that a piece was authentically created by a human being. (Though I guess it's similar if a digital artist simply records their canvas so one can see the thing come together start-to-finish).
    I generally used watercolor when I did traditional, but of course the drying times were a pain. I've never heard of acrylic gouache before now, I'm definitely gonna look into it! (Maybe this is similar to the Nicker Poster Color paint that a lot of traditional BG artists in Japan use?)

    As for oil painting, you could try Alla Prima, which is painting everything in one setting.

    let me tell you about other big game changer for workflow because maybe it could help others =D
    slow drying medium added to acrylics are magical if you're inbetween wanting to blend colors as with oil and the speed of acrylics.
    Whilst thinner are chefs kiss for washes as you'd be able to do them digitally by turning down the opacity of layers.
    And Wet Pallets don't need to be bought ^-^ I'm using a plastic praline box for years and it kept my acrylic wet for more than a month unused. Just add a tiny bit of slow drying agent and the occational spray of the water spray bottle. It's magic ^-^
    Love to see you stick to finding your own medium! Makes me want to go sit by the easle too!

    I did digital for years and really struggled with it. After the whole AI thing I completely switched back to traditional and now I'm loving it more than ever!
    Having an actual, physical result that you can hold in your hands is so much different from just lights on a screen. Even having the image printed isn't the same.
    Digital was really bad for my perfectionism as well. I would zoom in and zoom in and undo and redo and ultimately end up with a stiff, joyless piece that took hundreds of hours 😣 With traditional I'm forced to keep it loose and I complete WAY more art,get more practice, and the pieces are better because it's obvious i had more fun making them!

    as a traditional artist who tried digital multiple times, I've kept going with traditional art over it as I have far more freedom & challenge with my Gansi than I ever had with digital. I like physical holding my work in my hands and having a finished product right there in my hands. digital doesn't do that for me. it doesn't tickle the brain the same as paper, inks & gansi. if anything ai has me staying with traditional more and more. I understand the frustration you get as I have the same issues with digital art 😅 but that's the thing each of them are different skill sets and they do take time to learn and starting something with one you're not used to your going to have to go back scratch to learn the new one.
    looking fantastic, never heard of Acrylic guache before, but then Gansi is sort of a mix between watercolour & Acrylics so It's definitely something I'm not suprised existed. I noticed you tend to keep the semi realism in your work & some mediums aren't really good for that type of work, but are REALLY good for flat posterlike animation cel styles. so yeah it's worth messing around to find your groove (like I've seen people do realistic stuff in watercolours and that blows my mind - but I'm more poster/ animation cel kinda painter so 😅)

      100% understand that, I love having something physical to work on too. And yea finding the right medium for your particular style can be a game changer!

    my art school trained me with oil, charcoal (don't like it cox it's too messy), watercolor but never acrylic because they say it's too easy, digital art wasn't a thing back then, I had my drawing tablet & everytime I worked with Photoshop, it sucks my energy easily, whereas I feel light & fast when working with colored pencils & ink on paper

  • @Sephylis-tl4ll

    I went back to charcoal. I haven't had this much fun in awhile.

    Lmao I’m learning how to do both because I don’t do traditional commissions since I don’t have any way to deliver the painting so…I have to do it the sad way 😔😔

    What do you listen to while working? Music, podcasts, or audiobooks?

    • @tommy_worthington
      @tommy_worthington  5 днів тому +1

      Almost always just music, but I'll occasionally put on a podcast

    As someone who is an artist myself, I always choose traditional because it’s something I grew up with befor digital artists and ai art was a thing
