    The entire monologue happening about the music made this video even better

    Bless you for taking 8 hours out of your free time to do this when you already do it full-time. It looks amazing, and now I'll definitely be looking out more for backgrounds in my favorite shows (Tangled is one of my favorites).

    Your whole workspace set up already makes tackling a background much less intimidating. Thank you for this tutorial!

    I find drawing environment/background more loose and relaxing than drawing characters. I might opt to specialize in backgrounds more in the future. Thanks for the video! This is helpful. 😊

    Mabel's Bee Hole? OK?! I honestly always use to avoid painting or drawing backgrounds because I thought that it was a bit too complicated to me. but going to give it a shot after watching this. Thanks Laura

    Ah! This is exactly the video I needed! I have trouble painting environments and everything I do ends up looking very flat. I’ve been trying to digitally paint environments with more depth to them. This was very helpful. I also love the colors you use!

    @Mikesofka 5 років тому +4

    UGH! THIS IS MY FAVORITE VIDEO EVER! Seriously, creating and painting backgrounds speaks to me! This is exactly what I wanted to do when I was in art school (then "life" happened). But now I'm back to creating art and drawing daily. Definitely going to take your pointers here and apply them. Thank you!!

    I recently found your videos, and i gotta say i love them! My ADD gets really bad when i am drawing and i loose focus a lot, and usually take forever to get back around to drawing. but ive been watching your videos and they help me get back in the groove to get back to what i want to draw. I have also started focusing more on drawing backgrounds after watching your videos. You just have a great vibe, thanks for the videos.

  • @nikionek1881
    @nikionek1881 4 роки тому +4

    I love your captions about song changes throughout the video. Also I went back and re-listened to that superb flawless fade from the first song to the second after you asked me not to. It was absolute perfection, and are you also a DJ on the side? You totally should be. 🤣🤣

  • @Blueeyesinthesky
    @Blueeyesinthesky 5 років тому

    I’ve been drawing since I was able to pick up a pencil, I draw realistic portraits mainly because I love capturing those life like elements. But I used to write stories on Wattpad and I’ve always loved creating characters along with that. I took an into to digital art class last summer and I liked it because it was so easy to draw on there, erase mistakes and there was just more tools to take advantage of! So I’m more of an artist trying to get to know photoshop and other programs better and to be a digital artist

    • @Isaac-iu6bx
      @Isaac-iu6bx 5 років тому

      ALSO, as an artist I legitimately have a lot to learn from this!! Especially your workflow and layer management! I kept looking at it as it was going on, very impressive ^^
      How long does a painting like this take for you? It looks like you've basically got the "how" down, and you just gotta proceed and Do It. For a typical Disney background would one span several days? Do you work on one at a time or focus on just churning them out? I'm just curious - let me know if you've talked about it in another video, or don't want to answer it's all good!

    I love your videos! As an adult art major working toward their grad degree it's hard to find time to relax and do art for fun. Your techniques are so interesting to learn and I've been obsessed lately! I wanted to suggest some video ideas! I would love one on how you paint textures, one on how you choose your colors, and one that's more specific about how you create mountains. I can never get the shading on them quite right, even with references!

    Mable's B-Hole ^^ Thank you so much for this video, I've been creative since birth, and now that I'm almost turning 34, I've decided to re-visit my plan to become a Digital Artist (after bouts of depression and anxiety). My Wacom Cintique 16 arrives tomorrow, and after decades of traditional artwork, I'm now going to try digital.

    First of all: Mable's B hole, & secondly: Thanks for this! I really like making backgrounds for my animations & I picked up some great tips from you. I'm going to use the pen tool much more frequently going forward. I may be alone on this, but I think it would be really interesting to hear what Photoshop brushes you like using or find most helpful.

    I dont use the same program but ive been trying to find a good video on just simple background in general and a simple video too
    .
    I can never figure what I want in the background of any drawing. Some videos are so hyper detailed and crazy and I was looking for something more like this, easy and to the point, without needing to talk a lot, or have lots to read on side of the video

  • @stevegrooms1142
    @stevegrooms1142 5 років тому

    I'm left with a question. Which is more impressive, your artistic ability or your ability to explain complex matters in ways that are appealing and clear? Hmmm. I think your presentation skills ultimately excite me most.

  • @BombedNevada
    @BombedNevada 6 років тому

    You should do a live event where you work on piece and explain what’s going on in your head as you progress through the painting process.

  • @louir3199
    @louir3199 5 років тому

    I have to admit watching you create this BG together with the music is very cathartic (therapeutic from an artistic perspective). To me, the BG carries a mid-century cartoon-ish scene perfectly joined with the jazz,- - loved the palm trees, exuding that same mid-century feel.. I will miss them from the final BG!- loved feeling/watching your process.Thanks.

    @SuselLee 6 років тому

    Mabel, be whole. Thank you so much for the tutorial. There are not many about background. Most talk about characters and their posses. Now I need to work on my background technique. As I watch the video I realize that my mouth was wide open. I was blown away by your process. I may need to go back to some parts over again.
    You know you can break it up into 5 min segments or by topic. People watch shorter videos more and more often than long videos. And since you already have the master video you can divided and automated to be uploaded on a particular week. This one has at least a 4 to 6 week worth of footage if you place a 5 min clip per week. You can give added value by adding an extra comments and insight into your process. Your followers, - like me -, will love it!

  • @georgiecastilla28

    To be 100% honest, before knowing you were in charge, what hooked me up with Tangled was the beauty of the backgrounds. Their style was all I aspired to do. Thank you for this, Laura, sincerely. Your art is my biggest inspiration! 🥰
