Scott: "It's okay to make art... for FUN!"
Also Scott: (Makes a literal masterpiece)

This is also probably the best way to discover your art style. Find a reference, look at the basic shapes, and get creative. Ask yourself “how do I want to draw these eyes”

" don't feel discouraged if you completely mess up or hate your picture. There is 1 million bad drawings in one hand and many many good ones. We will mess up, it's how we learn and grow. Now, draw, have fun, find inspiration, and just make what you see. "- my art teacher when I was doing study abroad at an international school in Sapporo, Japan.

“Let’s make the dress pink ☺️”-
“Okay I immediately regretted that decision 😒”

Perhaps the most valuable bit of advice I got at art school was “we are not surgeons; nobody dies if we mess up.”

Fun was never an option

You are very inspiring, especially to those of us who are intimidated by beginning to draw, paint, or sketch. You make it look easy, because of your talent, but art is not easy. Practice is the key. Experiment, and break the rules.

“It’s ok you don’t need to make a masterpiece”

“And here you have it !” *masterpiece*

I have had the biggest art block for the past few months... And you saying this really helped ... Guess I just needed to hear someone else say it.

Hi Scott! Recently I found myself putting white outline on my art, though a bit different from yours. I always find your art really inspiring especially your artline and I admire how you draw portraits. I do digital art but looking at you using watercolor and gouache makes me wanna try it out!

"Let's make the dress pink! 😄, I immediately regretted that decision 😐" -Scott
Some legendary words indeed.

Scott: "sometimes you want to make art for fun"


Me: i do it all the time

[TheArtBook]

This is so true, my art isn’t the best but sometimes I post about doodles on my channel instead of just complete paintings and I hope it shows I don’t just make art, I do it for fun!

[chici]

I love your art so much! It is wonderful but more importantly thank you for teaching us all lessons about art and caring for all of us despite not knowing us

[flintfeatherr]

I know you made some sandman art a few months ago but I would love if you did dream, death, hob, rose and matthew lol. Your art has always been such a big inspiration and motivation for me to keep creating

[specster]

Nothing groundbreaking?? That's amazing and really impressive!
