"looks better upside down"

"well my art looks better if I turn the paper to the other side"

@Mijuki 6 years ago

Loved when you said "the more i feel like failing the more bold i get" because for me thats often the time and (stupid) mindset, that makes my paintings look better! :D

@JeanneK930 1 year ago

Chris, I’m watching this 4 years after you made it and I’m so amazed at what a good painting this is! As artists we psyche ourselves out when things are actually good. The depth in the skin tones is awesome. I think it’s so great for everyone to see that things won’t always go the way we think they will when we first start. Glad you published this.

"Let's just bring this to a finish"...checks...18 mins left to the video.

I also really like this piece. Reminds me of a mermaid with hair swirling around.

Also I wonder if it's just a matter of letting the watercolor be bold and colorful and imprecise and magical and letting the colored pencil be controlled. You can always salvage the drawing in the colored pencil. So what would it be like to give in fully to the impressionism of the watercolor?

@lmfaolouise 6 years ago

no words can express how much i love your art style!! it’s so mystical and crazy good 🥺

@EmilyMackeyArt 6 years ago

This one is so freaking beautiful! I love when you do mixed media. It makes me wanna try and dip my toes into mixed media art too! This is just jaw dropping!

@anselmodominguez2560 6 years ago

Hey, I would love that you show every piece or sketch you do on Instagram, because it encourages us so much seen you do mistakes, failure, it make us feel like we are no alone like artist ❤❤❤❤❤ and also you can done voice over when you don't talk , saludos desde Argentina

@nouveau8073 6 years ago

You always upload right when I’m wondering when you’ll upload and have been binge watching your older videos. Hhjshsksjkss

@carolalbertson1135 4 years ago

That you for sharing your thoughts, because we all feel that way. I think it looks nice. I started drawing again two years ago when I lost my son. Drawing helped me deal with my pain. So all the little comments help me. Love your voice.

@EsmeAnnRose 6 years ago

I like that you took a step back to reevaluate the piece! It can really change how you look at things and really see the potential in something that your close to giving up on. I think this turned out really charming and soft~

@sophiafranchescacorporal4548 6 years ago

The music 😂😂

@ConnieFaye 6 years ago

I've been using Polychromos with watercolor for years now, and I absolutely love them. What I love most about them is they won't get that weird waxy haze like prismacolors do, and they are way more blendable.

@LAYNERAYNE 6 years ago

Don't you think that the picture looks like she is daydreaming and the pink splatter emerging from the green is like flowers growing through the grass of a meadow...... (maybe)
Love it

@veronikahorak8449 6 years ago

thank you for posting so many longer videos! it's really enjoyable to watch these with a cup of tea or sketching with you

Love the clip of the guy trying to drink from the glass and his hand shaking so hard (at about 31:40 minute mark). It's how I feel when my piece of art is not turning out right. lol. Nice work Chris.
