If it's any consolation the Mona Lisa took 5 years to paint
I have some unfinished oil paintings that have been sitting around for almost that long too 😂😂
yeah, but isn't it because da Vinci repainted it many times, like the area of eyes and so on I read somewhere
edit: oh I think it was the mouth actually :D
@@ChrisHongArt There's an old oil painting of a man being mauled by a shark that took the painter 30+ years to finish. 😄
@@kuroyukiart um... I heard about it in a shark based episode of a podcast called 'The Caustic Soda Podcast'.
@@kuroyukiart I hope you like it. If I could remember when exactly they talk about it I would give you time codes but... It's been a while.
Fell in love with your art because of this video!
Kasey Golden omg kasey i’m surprised to find you in here
Omg hi kasey
Thank you Kasey! 😊
@@ChrisHongArt Haha, hi!! :D
Kasey Golden sup homie how is u?
Disney should seriously hire you
She'd be the perfect fit.
I thought the same :)
yep
A younger me would've loved to work for Disney, but now I really enjoy the freedom of working for myself! 😊
When i saw the sketch your character look like she fits right into the "Goofy Movie".
She: I made so many mistakes and this piece looks awful by now
Me: looks good to me
😂 It's.. subtle haha you have to believe me!
blah Newman hAh I wish it was “fake modesty”, I really don’t know if you’re an artist but personally, I struggle with this a lot. We get so used to our style that even when it can look like the best painting ever to everyone else, it just feels like we didn’t put enough effort into it and whatnot. So please be understanding 😅
@@MbxAnticsYt true. also, since you're painting it, you know exactly where you did wrong and that catches all your attention, specially if you are painting from your imagination and it isn't coming how you want 😂
I personally don't see my work as cute as it may be when I'm working in it or when I finish it, but I leave it for a while and when I come back I surprise myself. I also do that when I'm feeling bad about a drawing, or a painting or even a sculpture, I just leave it and then when I go back to work in it; and i see it with the eyes of a spector, I feel refreshed and it's not that bad 😅😂
@Sharon Newman you're not an artist are you ? 😂
Sharon Newman IKR
I feel like as artist we are always our worst critics, you did freaken awesome I love your style and characters
Thanks so much Dayana!
It really is great. It’s just annoying watching a great edit video with a great painter and listening to her whining. Omg, it’s so negative the audio
@@danielnunes3437 As an artist that isn't whining thats seeing things we dont like in our drawings that we want to change because were not satisfied with which helps the artist improve it. But i do get ur point her art was fantastic and i see how it can get annoying.
@@danielnunes3437 I thought it was a very positive video 🤔 She's talking through her issues with the painting, finding solutions and working through them. It was very inspiring 💕
When you talk about the faults in your art, it puts it in perspective for me on how inexperienced I am with drawing
what do you mean?
Same lmao
Table Top Friends the things she pointed out in my experience I would never notice, and I take that as a sign that I’m inexperienced because it takes time, a lot of progress and learning to see smaller and more specific faults.
@@aiweihuang440 Ooh I see
She's just pointing out the things she sees that aren't "perfect." Artists tend to pick things in their own art that could use improvement and I think we all do that time to time.
I started with Gouache and dove right into a difficult project. I took on a 24 page children’s book that paid nothing! I was dumb and agreed to split the book profits 50/50 with the author. Little did I know each piece would take over 70 hours and that gouache was such a difficult medium. Not only that, the story took place in an insanely detailed swamp.
Sadly, the book was never published. It was the author’s job to ‘sell’ it to a publisher and he got demoralized after only a few rejection letters. I believe the amount of investment each of us had was too unbalanced. It had only taken him a few hours to write, but it had taken me hundreds of hours to paint. He had too little of himself invested in it to really sell it.
At least I have those pieces in my portfolio, but I admit, I never did return to Gouache and that was almost fifteen years ago.
Whippo Morpha Chris Hong’s art has inspired me to master gouache. I used to do well with acrylic then got used to digital art and then got used to alcohol based markers. Trying to not let the stressful time of the last time I painted stop me from painting again. I hope the OP will give gouache another try. Like I’m giving painting another try. After I committed to be underpaid for a painting for an event when I could barely afford to paint it. But I did it anyways I hate seeing pictures of that painting now lol
sees gouache... and have vietnam flashbacks.. wo horrible story i hope you can give the medium a second chance
try to sell it again???
@@ko.ala.b it’s not really my book, even though I put in the vast majority of time and energy.
@@GeahkBurchill i see. :-/
This illustration is beautiful!!! I'm happy that you didnt give up on this, sometimes it's all worth it at the end❤
I know how frustrated one can be as an artist, and no-one else understands, being like "Omg what's your problem it's so good!", when it's actually not. But let me tell you, in all honesty, that's just an artwork and you have to believe me, even though your creations seem not as good to yourself as they actually are. They are outstanding really. Just very, very good job!
I am so glad there is still artists who work with paint and hand!! I don't hate computer art, some artists create amazing works of art, but hand made art is still the best for me.
Love your work
This reminds me of the setup at Disneyland’s animation studio drawing class because it has all the shelves and dolls with the cartoon brushes 😍
Dr.Drake Ramoray question mark
dammn! it's one of the most prettiest illustration I ever see!! I was crazy when I look at the thumbnail, I'm still crazy...come on u're an awesome artist!
be confident u are badass!!
This is so unbelievably beautiful 💕So many details ... I am SPEECHLESS. You should be really proud of yourself. It doesnt matter how long it takes to finish, as long as you are satisfied with the result. :)
The lighting, the colors scheme, the idea, it's just amazing! Very talented!
This picture is so wonderful so beautiful!!!
I relate to this whole video when you talk about putting pressure on yourself and worrying about showing an amazing WIP then not making a WOW finished. About not painting from joy and rather feeling as if it's a chore. Part of me is happy to pressure myself because, there are too many artists out there that they just draw from joy and don't challenge or pressure themselves much and their style/skill doesn't evolve for a long long time. I don't want to be one of those artists. But I get SO ANGRY when a piece that should take me like 30mins-1hr takes me days, weeks, or months because I have to train my eye to study somethings for the piece or I didn't start the piece in the proper workflow and jammed myself.
Keep making videos like this Chris! I'm a self taught artist with no art friends and these make me so happy to hear a hard-working, developing, struggling, artist to relate to.
Thanks for your comment Melon Dick, as frustrating as it can be, I really do enjoy challenging myself too! ☺️
"there are too many artists out there that they just draw from joy and don't challenge or pressure themselves much and their style/skill doesn't evolve for a long long time. " Totally agree, I'm one of those ! I think it's because when we see your work we are like "I will never reach that level" so we just enjoy ourselves, but I'm glad great artists continue to improve, it's inspiring !
That said, I tkink being always on pressure to make a great art isn't productive, I have a friend who's really good (far better than me) but when we worked together he didn't send us any sketch because "it isn't good enough" while I did a lot ; it wasn't great but people liked it, and at least, the work was done ; It's difficult to find the good balance between challenging and enjoyement :/
Sorry for bad english, have a nice day :)
@@unkykun Your English is fine and your artistic experiences ring true. Keep up the good work and the good fight. Artists who claim it all came easy to them are either liars or bad artists. Chris Hong has my admiration; not only for her gorgeous art, but because she is so willing to share her problems and insights for solving them.
#Melon Dick What you say is truth and your experiences are par for the course with creative people. IMO, those "easy" pieces that should be done in a flash but take tectonic plate slowness to do are also among the best teachers you can have. I know this from experience. I certainly have had loads of pieces fight me tooth and nail--and lose. I won, and that's a feeling all artists worth their salt should know.
You need not feel that you have no art friends. I am around and there are fine artists on UA-cam, like Chris Hong here who are talented, honest, and able to teach.
@@ChrisHongArt That is one of the ways you know you're an artist for real instead of just a dabbler.
I feel like this painting could inspire a Disney movie 😀
You should be really proud of this painting!! You have really created an interesting scene with so much details and I can't believe you manage to tie everything together!! Very impressive and interesting to watch ❤️❤️❤️
This is gorgeous!! I thought it was gorgeous ages ago, when you hated it lol.
You should work for Disney.
Subbed.
awesome illustration I can all the effort and time it took you If I can say something is that if you could plan your light sources first then you can know how to place the shadows more as a group than as separate objects.here its hard to see whats the main source of light of many objects and they dont look unified.awesome for going through this you have learnt a lot from this for sure!
This painting was amazing to see come together. Please never stop painting 💕
You made a good idea adding the dripping paint. This illustration is beautiful! You did a great job!
It's so helpful to hear about your thought process as you're making your paintings
That you for sharing your struggles. You don't understand how much it helps encourage new artists such as myself.
The results are seriously SOOO BEAUTIFUL WOOWW
I love seeing the art supplies and little creatures in this painting - they’re all so cute! Your details are amazing. You really put thought and planning into your artwork.
Whatever you're doing and whatever your process is - it's perfect.
I absolutely love this painting and I’m so glad you decided to finish it. 😍
This painting is absolutely gorgeous dang
The lightening in the painting is amazing, everything feels so real while still looking cartoony. I love it so much
Your videos are great. I love that you're not scared to share your struggles. It helps realise that it's not all just smooth sailing even for someone as talented as you!
Your painting truly is magical
I really appreciate your honesty in this video, a lot of the time artists on UA-cam seem picture perfect and to never struggle with their work, which isn't reality. Love your work❤️
Just re-watched this video, and wow! You have so many awesome insights about your painting process. I love how you shared your frustrations and how you were able to pinpoint precisely what elements of the painting needed refinement in order to produce the finished piece. I’m sure the three months of working on this piece were a time of tremendous learning and growth as an artist for you (especially regarding your understanding of color harmony and how to optimally use gouache). So awesome!
Also this painting is beauuutifullll- I loved seeing the process, hearing your story, and watching your journey
3 months that are very much worth this masterpiece. you're amazing! 🌸
I love the art cart with the shop towels!
"That's how I spent my time painting this piece." said through frustrated laughter is so relatable. I feel so relieved to see others reflecting on similar mistakes I make :D
around once a month I’ll come back to this video consistently - it’s my favourite paining I’ve ever seen frok the past decade. Thank you for creating this, i one day hope that I can buy a copy
This is so beautiful and magical!
What a special story this painting holds! Truly inspirational!
This is one of the most precious things I've ever watched!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with all of us! 💜
the way you apply the colors so skillfully and build up the painting is SO satisfying to watch. This drawing is so stunning!!
This painting is unreal! Everything about it is so amazing! The details, the color, the effort put in it. It looks to real. You're very talented.
You are the epitome of why I'm consistently in awe of artists! This piece is absolutely amazing!
Your Artworks are AMAZING!!
Love how you shared your process! When I first started painting I wanted to throw every piece away halfway through. It took me awhile to realize that if you trust the process it will work for you. Sometimes the very best thing you can do is walk away from a painting and then come back at a later date. It's easy to miss the forest for the trees. Also, drying makes such a difference in how things sort of start to blend together and become more cohesive. So good to learn from "mistakes". Way to persevere!
Soooo cuuuute! Love the colors and use of light!
Thank you for speaking about your emotional volatility. Its been my experience working on video games for the last part of a decade. Its good to see that the feeling is unanimous across all artists who care about delivering something that is good.
Thanks for sharing your process and your feelings about it. Well done!
you're back! i missed your videos so much 🤧💕
This piece really amazes me, I'm so glad you stuck with it and finished it! And that you added those paint blobs at the end, they really add something. Even though you struggled I think you managed to bring everything together nicely!
You are my favorite youtuber and artist ever, I'm happy to hear you didn't gave up on this piece but more on the process. You are so dedicated and self-aware of your succeses and mistakes, that makes me value more your art and you as a person. This process will remind us, that artists are humans and not self-suficient robots that don't sleep, work or have stresses we go through every day in our lives. Stay healthy and don't overwork yourself, take a rest if posible.
This is super! There is something so magical about watching you paint! Nice!
You have such incredible creativity! All the planning really pays off when you create works that can calorie our imagination as we spend a long time really discovering all of the details.
I love that you show all the work that goes into the art. People think it's fast and easy if you are talented...it's still WORK! Also I love that you show all the valuable stages of planning, value studies, color studies, etc. The final always reflects all your hard work!
This has given me the motivation to continue 5x4 ft acrylic painting that I currently have on an easel in my living room... it's been sitting there for a few months now, mostly done, but there are a few things that I just can't get right and I've gone over them again and again. They're background detail, but it's driving me insane. I love the rest of the painting, so I'm now looking forward to finishing the piece.
Wow I have never seen art like this and it is beautiful! 😍
I love this painting. I agree that I can see Disney inspiration and that is a compliment.
You're art is just stunning!
I really admire your handling of edges and shapes in this piece and the overall look is so vibrant and abudant - Cannot keep my eyes away from it!
Your painting is so beautiful and magical.thanks for explaining the step by step process of the painting!☺️
Chris, you're so humble. he piece is awesome and I loved watching the process. Thanks so much!
That moment while you were painting a lamp, I found it like popping up from the paper. Amazing! Moreover, your technique is wonderful. Colour tone and light effects are awesome.
I love it! So many details!😍😍😍
This piece is actually incredible. The texture of the background actually adds a lot of depth and contrast with the smooth subject of the picture. The colors look beautiful together, and your style is absolutely gorgeous!! It looks like it was done digitally. It's kind of a masterpiece.
Nothing wrong with putting in so much time. It’s awesome!
It's so important for our heroes to show their struggle to keep us pushing forward in times of despair. Thank you so much for sharing this.
This painting is adorable…I love watching the process and know that sometimes it is ok to just walk away and come back to it.😊
It's alive and magical...loved your work, felt like going back to the old Cartoon Network and Disney.I can literally feel you for the art block that you had... I was going through the same phase for quite some time now. I just felt that this video was so relatable but at the end you literally conquered those bad feelings about the work this was very inspiring to me.Keep up the great work!🌹❤️.
I absolutely love your art 💖
It may have took you longer than you wanted but in the end it came out beautiful 😊 u inspire me.
That looked like DIGITAL ART!! The glowing effect is surprising !✨️
This is sooooo amazing! The way you relate your feelings while making it is so accurate and you work looks perfect!
this is so beautiful!!!love your art! keep going!!
This is amazing! All of the little details makes it so fun to look at, like the paint droplets coming off of the brush and the stars on the wall. I feel like I understand the characters. The egocentric cat is my favorite! And, major props to you for still completing it after 3 months lol. I think that’s something a lot of artists can relate to.
Ohmygosh, I was just rewatching your vids yesterday, wondering when you will upload again. So happy you’re back and amazing art as always!!
Aw thanks for sticking by me during the quiet times haha 😆😘
It turned out absolutely gorgeous! Such a lovely composition.
This looks so amazing, it is so beautiful!
This is so creative and beautiful!
This is my first time watching one of your videos, and I love how honest you were about your process. I’m only an amateur artist, but I completely relate to your feelings to the piece. In addition, your methodical approach to painting really inspired me to think harder when planning my own pieces.
This piece is so beautiful and i can tell that you put not only your incredible talent in it but also your heart and your emotions. This is true art❤❤❤
Your art is so detailed and gorgeous!💜💜💜
It looks so cozy!
Wow 🤩 so pretty, colourful, snd reminds me of my cosy childhood 💕love the way you paint and explain and take us through the process. Would love to see more of your start to finish and inspiration for other paintings . ❤️
That's a whole lots of details. Very creative.
Super in love with the piece!!!
nothing better to improve your state of mind and ease the self-critique than resting. That really allows your creativity to flow. As an artist myself, I find resting to really allow that intuitive creativity to flow; by resting I mean a relaxed state of mind. I find that meditating has the same effect as going on holiday. I have actually had the same experience with some of my paintings and later on when i was relaxed i found them quite enjoyable to work with. The end result is really beautiful.
This is so adorable!
Glad that UA-cam suggested this video to me. I love your art, and your real ness about the art. You’re an amazing artist!!
Chris!!! Look what you made!!! Its so cute!! I definitely understand the stress and anxiety you can place on yourself when you're trying to finish a piece, especially when trying to teach. But you stuck through it, you got out of your own way, and finished an adorable and very complex piece of art for your portfolio. I love the additions you made to liven it up. They made the piece. I know it's a struggle, but try not to be so hard on yourself. There is no time table when creating something to be enjoyed. Social media is a tool that can quickly turn a passion into something you might despise. Remember to always see it as a tool to get your message across; the message you originally wanted to share. It'll help you find the sun through the clouds. Again, great job and I (and I'm sure everyone else) am anxiously waiting to see what other wonderful pieces you come up with (without the added pressure to perform.) :)
thanks for the words of encouragement Marie 😭 I appreciate it! So excited to send you your print!!😘❤️
It is just Amazing Chris!!
Thank you for sharing your process and not giving up on your illustration; it's very inspiring. This would be great for a kids room. I hope it sells. Great job.
Your painting is so on point I love it 💗
Your painting is very clear and smooth and also bright , there's this symphony
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this process with us!! I feel like art, as fulfilling as it is, is a struggle to make most of the times, and online artists are usually like "oh you know, I struggled but I got through it", and I'm always like "BUT HOW", and here you go into detail, and it's mind blowing to me that such an accomplished artist feels the same way as I do. Really thank you for all the details of frustration you shared with us and how you grew past it. I love the piece! You can definitely feel the magic.
Thank you for your comment ThatOnePerson 😭❤️ Glad you enjoyed this one!
Absolute... very best art video I have EVER seen. You did it again, Chris!
I admire your tenacity, really. If something doesn't work for me, I put it aside and never look at it again. Then I berate myself for it and that's even worse. You pushed through and the piece is so lovely!
i love the whole piece so too much!!
this painting is really cute, i love all the details you put into it!
Wow this is crazily full of rich details! You're one of kind talented woman! Props on that!!!!!
