See all of our thumbnail sketching videos in this playlist:

@Makbabe72

Oh why do I find doing thumbnails so frustrating? But I love checking out other artists thumbnail sketches. It is seeing a piece of their artistic brain!🧠 My brain just feels like 😵‍💫when I think about doing them. Who else’s brain is on this struggle bus?

@egroover9449

Your livestreams are always so timely for me it's crazy! I needed to see this this week. I'm working on a BIG canvas and have been struggling with the composition for days and somehow I just forgot that thumbnails are a tool I can use! I didn't know there was real technique involved since I never properly learned about them. It's like I've been given a missing piece to a puzzle. Thank you so much!

@candicembarbosa

I've been trying to incorporate more thumbnails into my process and I found this so extremely helpful. Thank you so much for sharing all your art knowledge with us!

@janhogan3873

Thank you so much for your reminder about thumb nail sketches. They are essential in evaluating negative and positive shapes as well as boarder connections with the subjective matter, I am at the moment grappling with water colour and techniques, finding it so hard to not move into mixed media to get what I want, does me in working light to dark! You are so right about other tutorials not showing their thumb nail sketches, I am not an outdoor artist, but would imagine they would surely do some? Loved your demonstration,❤

@TaniaRouserArt

I love the trick with colouring on a trace paper. Never knew about it until now. Thank you ❤

@Lisa.DiPrete

On #2, not only do I draw the borders, I do them to the same proportions as the canvas will be.

@jhmstagg9104

Never thought of rules for thumbnails, but you are right yes thank you for pointing it out yes make it work if you're going to take the time to do it

@alexandercuyvers9675

Love from Belgium! currently composing my portfolio for a bachelors at the royal academy of fine arts in Antwerp!! binging every video!! (u guys are single handedly going to get me in!)❤❤❤

@faelientrashvlogs1495

guilty of not using thumbnails here lmao. But whenever I do stuff always comes out better so i'm trying to grow the habit

@MoonlitIllustrator

Guilty of not using thumbnails, and then drawing a box around a drawing to call it a thumbnail. At that point I don't wanna make a final piece because I spent so much time rendering the "thumbnail"

@SmillyDonut

I definitely struggle with knowing how much detail to include in a thumbnail. But Art Prof has definitely helped me to do better. I didn't even know what thumbnails were before Art Prof.

@jazminalvarado8433

Thank you for this informative video❤ So helpful for making decisions on what I am creating😊

@rice6827

Your commission piece is soo good whoa! Makes me wanna get into acrylic inks…the thing with thumbnail sketches is that I love them too much😂. I‘m into sketching big time anyways and I‘ll personally almost always will take a good sketch( so dynamic if made well and relatively quick) over a finished painting (feels static to me most of the time) which leads to me not being good at drawing/ painting details but I‘m not even sure if I really need that process for my personal style🤔
