Nathan and Jacob: "I tried some things out, idk if it fully worked but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out!" Karina and Julia: " *God is dead and I have killed him* "

Karina’s confidence before she started hers, saying “Imma be honest with y’all....I kinda snapped on this one” was very inspiring I love it when artists hype up their own talent

“Julia, draw a character” *Draws a room full of vampires* “Julia, Draw a character” *makes a room in blender* “Julia, draw a background” *Draws a room with a giant man*

“We’re drawing backgrounds! Julia can’t possibly go off prompt now!” Julia: look at the man

nathan: gave himself a style challenge while making some really heartfelt fanart jacob: gave us a real conversation on the personal struggles of being satisfied with your art and how it’s all a learning process while still coming out with a beautiful atmospheric final product karina: flexed on all of us while still drawing her sexy ocs julia: julia

I can literally never tell what Julia is going to do. Just when I think I've got her figured out, she takes me to eyeball diner church.

Nathan: "I guess we'll just have to lick each other's, uh..." Karina: *suppressed laugh*

Julia: You know those... [starts covering the faceless wall man with dozens of eyeballs]

Karina’s looks like that one full page panel when you’re reading comics, and you know that the artist put it in there just to flex. It basically is that, actually.

Regular compliments: wow that looks so nice! Artist compliments: I want to eat that floor, I wish to lick that building, I shall chew that tree

Karina : "let's make Julia's life easier" Julia : learns Blender to make a background Alright then

Church and steak: It was one of the original beans with Caldwell, you admitted that you told the joke in the office and felt bad because you stole it

These pre-drawn episodes are fun because everybody just ends up complimenting each other constantly

I can’t believe Karina sacrificed her back so we could be blessed with this episode

as a midwesterner, there is something in julia’s drawing that i entirely vibe with. i have no goddamn clue what it is, but there’s a definitive vibe.

Alternative title: "Karina becomes Julia for an episode"

Julia could’ve just drawn an empty room and titled it “Room That Was Until Recently Full of Vampires”

Jacob: "This is a fun challenge, so you can flex those art muscles a bit you know? get out of your confort zone" Karina: " *I SPENT 8 HOURS IN THIS DRAWING* "

everyone: haha stepping outside comfort zone go brrr Julia: *A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts*

I love Karina's strangled noise in the background as Nathan pauses awkwardly in the EXACT wrong place in his sentences...

Julia: Doesn't know what to draw for her person, draws a background. Doesn't know what to draw for her background, draws a person :P.

"Jacob told me I can't draw a person so I immediently drew a person"

Julia’s looks like a weird vaguely scary dream you had once and you just feel confused when you wake up.

“Jacob told me the only rule was to not include people” ... “So I drew a person”

Sometimes I hold Julia in a higher regard in the field of artistry, but whenever I watch a speedpaint, I'm taken aback how god damn genius all four are when they have the time they need.

I have a suggestion for you brilliant people: without looking at their true form, please select a noise from the weird bird noises compilation and draw what you think they look like from how they sound like. Thank you please!

"im literally so bad at color" JACOB YOURE COLORBLIND

honestly? jacob could sell the black and white version of his second "failed" rough draft as a print just as-is, no extra finishing or steps necessary, and i'd buy it.

"We're drawing some backgrounds, but ideally without any people in it" A room full of vampires would be a great background....

* opens with a cat * Me an intellectual: ah yes. The producer.

I love Jacob’s slip up mish mash of “free-handing” and “eyeballing” turned into a completely different phrase that still has a meaning

Peak millennial: “either 8 hours of drawing or 10 hours of animal crossing”

This just sums up all four of them so well. Nathan: Here's some cute, nostalgic cartoony stuff that will make you feel warm and fuzzy, but also lightly impressed by my talent. Jacob: Oh shit, I suck. Oh man, what am I doing? Oh actually, this is really not too bad. Also, video games? Karina: Art challenge, featuring sexy OCs and amazing lighting. Julia: You wanted me to do a thing? Here's not that thing, but also sort of the most that thing that has ever been.

Hey drawfee, I've had this idea for a while: please please draw covers for books based only on their first and last sentences. Pick them for each other, or maybe get Tristan to host? Love you guys

"Its hard when the sky is green." I low-key want that on a T-shirt.

"Sometimes you just gotta feel something, be it triumph or back pain." Karina 2020

Drawing suggestion: Each person tells an embarrassing story from the past, while someone else illustrates something from the story.

Julia sounds like a mad scientist gesturing wildly to a board covered in red string and cryptid photos

I absolutely love the sound of befuddlement Nathan makes when Julia first draws the straight lines, especially right after casually saying, "Oh, it's one of them people walls that you have."

Jacob: *talks about how you can change the colors if u want* Me: *cries in traditional*

Draw things that are definitely normal, a few specific suggestions being: -A person who is definitely human -A tree that is definitely safe to lean against -A very cute, very not suspicious cat -The moon, perfectly normal and not in any capacity going to kill Nathan

Take me to church, I’ll worship like a dog at the diner of eyes

"Guys I'm gonna be honest... I snapped a littls on this one" *remembers Karina now has a knife* *sweats nervously*

Nathan: this is awesome and totally going to inspire a show Jacob: I would play this, and might even try to do this myself Karina: this is a comic I'm reading tonight Julia: pass me the migraine medication

Seeing the producers at the start really improve the videos 10/10

Karina clearing her throat at "lick each other's..." is a big mood.

Julia: "Sometimes you just needa call it otherwise you end up overworking it" Also Julia: *Spends 10 hours on a BACKGROUND for a character-drawing challenge AND learns a new software* xDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

This is just forty minutes of four friends complimenting each other's work and I am 100% here for it. I need some friends to gas me up like this

Best part of this episode: everyone snickering quietly about Nathan stealing a joke while Julia unabashedly continues to explain her glorious two-point perspective process

Julia: changes avatar for people afraid of eyes. Also Julia: immediately adds hundreds of eyes to her drawing

Nathan: "I treated this as a learning exercise." [Proceeds to draw my current desktop wallpaper]

This is Julia's world, we're just living in it.

"Sometimes you just gotta feel something, be it triumph or back pain." - Karina 2020

I love that the “separation of church and steak” joke was not only not made my Nathan, but he stole it from his friend... TWICE.

Before Nathan's was coloured, I felt some strong Lorax vibes coming from it.

I just wanna say how much I appreciate Jacob's sharing his struggle to get his art where he wanted it. It's honestly so comforting and validating to see that I'm not along in struggling to get my art to be what I see in my mind's eye. Watching all of you draw from blank canvases and beginning sketches to finished pieces really helps my confidence. Thank you all of you for willing to share the process even when it's not "perfect"!!

I'd love to see a sequel to this where they make charecters who woupd exist in these backgrounds

I love the direction the channel is going right now, it feels a lot more catered to the artist community, whereas in the past it’s been more about the funnies. I love the funnies as well but it’s also great being able to relate and compare to all of your art processes and seeing what you guys are capable of outside of doodles lol I hope this is something you guys do more of because I find it just as entertaining

"When I enter a permanent hunch" *straightens own posture*

Everyone watching Julia explain how she does two point perspective: uh huh yes I totally completely utterly understand

Karina’s 2 catchphrases: “Hell yeah” and “I’ll kill you”

Nathan: "It's hard when the sky is green." *Flashback to the Nathan-Week Drawfee variety hour when his challenge was to draw in green*

Next challenge for drawfee : draw the character for those backgrounds 😂 I’ll love to see what Julia comes up for her church-dinner .

the reason why karina is my favorite artist is because whenever she draws makes you want to submerge yourself into that reality and makes you yearn for it like you used to live there yourself.

Nathan's: Ahhh, this looks welcoming and pretty Jacob's: Need to get to that lighthouse Karina's: My mind is blown by the perspective and the amount of stuff in the room Julia's: I feel scared entering this room

Nathan: I'm not sure if i succeded. Nathan's piece: Gorgeous, showstopping, amazing

Starting off strong with “I do wanna lick these mountains” and “it’s hard when the sky is green”, I would like both of those in sticker form please

I need a “It’s hard when the sky is green.” T-shirt.

Julia's segment in this where she was describing her process was like entering a different plane of existance.

I think a cool idea, stemmed off Jacob saying "This makes me want to challenge myself to spend longer on a drawing", would be if you each spent 8 hours on a drawing for speed draw. Then you can talk about your experiences and what went through your minds. People like Nathan and Jacob never spend that length of time on anything they draw so it would be so interesting to hear how they felt hours into a drawing. That's the only prompt. Draw whatever you want, but spend 8 hours on it.

Nathan saying "thank you" is so sweet

I love that Karina always says "that's valid"... I dont know, it just makes me kinda happy 'n stuff.. if I mess up on my art and get frustrated, I can just imagine her saying it's okay, and I feel better about my skills...

Nathan has the cutest most sincere “thank you” my heart does a little squeeze every time he says it.

Somehow Julia's portrait with one eye is more creepy than multiple...

"What do you need 3 suns for?" Skin cancer

“Jacob I want to lick your lighthouse.” ...yep. I love drawfee

Drawfee Prompt: Draw a background Julia: Take me to Durch.

"I wanted to merge diner and church aesthetic." Oh, you mean Waffle House?

Jacob's second attempt gave me the idea of the flying windmill island from Gorillaz appearing in the world of Journey and now I want that to be a thing.

Nathan is such a cinnamon roll, whenever he talks I’m like omg someone hug him pls also that background is so cool yay Nathan

Karina's little cough-laugh when Nathan said "we should lick each other's... Drawings"

Nathan: We're just gonna have to lick each other's...drawings Jacob: 👀

Yall are painfully inspirational, I wanna go draw backgrounds with the textured brushes I dont have in the good program I also dont have--

Karina: “Imma be honest with y’all, I kinda snapped on this one.”

Nathan: a fun lil piece Jacob: gorillaz album art Karina: really good web comic art Julia: reallt weird dreamscape that can only be described as a dreamscape

Holy christ. Everyone's work on this was AMAZING. Nathan's is so inviting and captures such a mood. Jacob's is so unique and imagination capturing. Karina's is just. Chef's kiss. Cannot be praised enough. And then Julia's feels like its straight outta American Gods and is a master class on two-point. This is such awesome work! AHHHH!!!

I am nearly in tears from the beauty of Karina's drawing. My eyes have been blessed.

I literally love the speed draw episodes so much I’ve been watching them all on repeat for days

Karina blew my damn mind with this one. She so quiet and humble I forget she can pull off an 8h stint in detail hell like this

We're not talking enough about how a "diner church" is amazing idea. We're running out of space for diners, just _put them in the churches._

"Dont give 2020 any ideas" *Three weeks later* Two additional suns have been spotted.

I kinda want to see the drawfee peeps do traditional art like pencil and paint kinda thing

Nathan: Jacob, I wanna lick your lifehouse. I guess we'll have to lick each other's-- Karina: *chokes* Glad to know Karina and I went to the same place

“I wanna lick it” really is the best compliment an artist can receive on a piece.

Julia's piece looks like a setting you would walk into in 'Call of Cthulhu'

I keep coming back to this video because there's something hypnotically fascinating about Julia's drawing. I came back to it today and between that and the song Hotel California has resulted in me designing a TTRPG game. This is, by far, my favorite drawing of Julia's. I realize this likely won't be seen, but I wanted to take a chance to let y'all know this and to say thank you for the inspiration.

I love that these have a vibe of like art club with your friends. Like hearing all of the support and tips and things is so wholesome. Julia being able to take away a better way to paint floors based on Karina’s drawing and openly admitting it made me so happy. I feel like Drawfee makes art really accessible for people.

Why do I watch Drawfee? Where else would I ever hear the sentence "I just wanted to design a weird diner church."

Explain drawfee in out of context statements: “I do want to lick these mountains.”

17:36 Karina got really concerned when Nathan said "We're just gonna have to lick eachother's..."
