"The only real failure is failing to begin"
I really needed to hear that today. I procrastinate a lot

I i know someone mentioned tihs already, but i think the " eliminate your roadblocks, there are no rules, the only failure is failing to beign" is some thing that will go on my desktop background right now, thank you very much

I am now an expert Background artist after watching this

I came across this today when I wanted to learn about BG designing for a passion project... the content is so helpful yet so short and clear, professional to college level information, and its uploaded here for FREE? I almost feel as if I snuck into some college class lesson archive and got a whole credited lecture from a professor. Thanks for this, I go to a design school (for different major than entertainment) and alot of these I've been told to do or have been doing, but you really made it into a boiled down clear form and everything about the creative process it all makes sense now. The dots are connected on how I should approach.

I honestly have never been so excited, enjoyed, and inspired taking so much notes on every detail in this well-designed slideshow presentation. Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge.

44:00 confidence like Sanderson, just do one thing at a time, don’t overwhelm slowly will get there, trust over fear

[ViancaElliott]

Perfect timing, I was crying over my background progress yesterday 😝

[MindMeats]

lol a college professor linked this video and told us to watch it during class. This is mega helpful, thank you for making this public!!

[aniefosa]

The juxtaposition of Steven Universe and Tarzan is really beautiful.

This is the best thing I have ever seen on youtube about art. This could be a full on 300$ workshop in some fancy university. Thanks for making this! I am also trying to be a background artist.

This video is so helpful! I've gotten to know more about the pipeline, but even better you explained how you explained your painting process for backgrounds! I'm definitely more excited now to work on my background pieces myself!!

[Drawingracoon]

This is all i need .. i was so confused about concept art, 2d background, environment art etc. Thank you so much for clearing my doubts 😄.

[Frostfern]

You’ve shown me how to search for new artists and that has helped me SO MUCH! Thank you so much.
I’ve noticed you no longer have the speed paint/walkthrough of the painting of those two wolves up. I can’t tell if I imagined it or if it was just hidden.

[humesteria]
