I’ve returned art tips from someone paying twelve thousand dollars to do art good let’s go. I have a drawing of my kids plagiarize from yourself all right so the last time I looked at some TikTok art tips a lot of the kids seem to really like it so today I’m gonna do it again and for all the boomers out there TikTok is basically where all the kids post their super short super chaotic videos and there are people on TikTok who are teaching art so I figured, you know, just here to make sure that all the information is good for the art babies because you don’t want the kids listening to nonsense and there’s a lot of that on TikTok.
Our tips on TikTok. I don’t know why I’m doing this to myself but let’s go. Stop using squares for hands too blocky; polygons are where it’s at. Thumbs and fingers it’s a handshake. All right so we’re talking about hands and I’d like to think that I know a thing or two about hands even though I don’t really like drawing them. But this is a really good tip; you know you shouldn’t treat the palm of the hand as just a square shape because it’s not a square shape. So if you hold up your hand to your face right now and you look at your palm it’s actually there’s a bit of a taper so you can see that it peaks at the middle finger and then it comes back down there is a bit of roundness to the shape of the palm and there’s a bit of taper as you get down to the pinky so that’s a very good point you don’t want to treat it just as a square, good job.
Hold up when in dowdy one finger audi I feel like did that belong to somebody else there Ethan Becker’s gonna come for you man eight out of ten you lost two points for saying uh when in doubting one finger audi next burnt out like really burned out. So I wanted to give you some tips on how to get out of the artist burnout. I feel like burnout can serve from comparison and holding ourselves and our art to such a high standard feeling like when we don’t meet them my tip is to make language that you haven’t used.
Okay, so I really like that video; I like these more emotional, you know, sentimental videos because this is talking about artists burnout and I know that everybody feels burnout at one point or another maybe you’re forcing yourself to do too many studies maybe you’re just not having fun doing what you’re doing and they’re basically saying that when you’re feeling this go back to doing things that you can have fun with you know find some new materials to work with play around with different things it’s just just get back to the essence of why you do art to have fun to escape from reality to make your own world to let your imagination run wild and just especially with social media nowadays everybody’s out there saying like yo check out my work look what I did look at how much I’ve improved over the past two weeks I did this in like 20 minutes.
It could be very overwhelming for a lot of people but remember why you’re doing art to have fun. This video has taken such a wholesome turn 10 out of 10 good job.
A lot of artists on TikTok seem to just post a time-lapse of their art to music and wonder why they don’t get many views. I try to do a jump cut about every two to four seconds in my videos and I’ve seen it really makes a difference. This is kind of funny because the person saying when you’re posting on TikTok you want to do a jump cut every one to two seconds because apparently the kids have the attention span of a green fruit fly nowadays I mean I do that but my videos on TikTok don’t get that many views so I can’t say that this actually works but I do think that you know changing the scene every couple seconds especially for a platform that’s as chaotic as tick-tock is definitely better than just posting a time-lapse video of your drawing and putting music to it because you know you’re going to do it for the chaotic brains of the kids nowadays and I get that at six out of ten.
If you’re an artist and you’re watching this you should start making a certificate of authenticity which print you sold and it actually adds value to your work design number and stamp each of them with my brand and logo. Jesus, the last thing that I expected to see this morning was a butt crack on TikTok anywa…
