Found you on KZfaq a few months ago. Quickly became my favorite art related channel. Love the sarcasm, editing, and watching you draw live. Keep up the awesome work.

Here thanks to KZfaq! So grateful for all of your tips - I did an entire commission project in Adobe Fresco last month thanks to you! 😊 And I really appreciate this video as I'm a new, baby KZfaq channel and recently reached my halfway point to getting monetized. Who knows what the future holds, but this video is helpful for setting realistic expectations. Thank you for your transparency!

I discovered you here on KZfaq! I practically listen to you every day while I work, and your advice is invaluable! Oh, and of course, I now follow you on various social media! I love your work! Thank you!!

Found you on KZfaq when researching procreate. Seeing your illustration style was a hook. Plus the similarity with the ADD thing as an artist and art director. It relates

I just joined as a member! This is by far the most I've ever engaged with a KZfaq channel (I've literally only ever commented on a select few videos since the inception of KZfaq, yet I find myself inspired to comment here regularly) and I definitely see the value of accessing your extra content, so it feels perfectly justified for such a small fee. I hope more viewers will continue to join and help make the channel more than sustainable, and encourage you to keep going. Thanks for being so transparent and allowing us to understand the inner workings of what it takes to bring us this stream of golden nuggets!

I found you through KZfaq! About to take one of your Skillshare courses. I'm very happy for you and it's great to see someone else that's managing ADHD and finding success, not to mention sharing the 'how' with us. I just turned on all notifications for your channel so I don't miss any videos, sometimes I need a reminder to double-check!

I just discovered your videos a year after making this… and not through Instagram. Love your work! Keep it up. Would love to see a financial update now that your subscriber base is up to 69K (as of the time of this posting). WAIT. Nevermind. I just found it. You rock.

I found you while looking for fresco tutorials. Yes, I found your old videos you don’t like. But I like them. As a fellow ADHDer, I love to hear about how you manage ~timey wimey~ stuff. While I’m not an illustrator per se, I do produce technical illustrations for my clients. Seeing your workflow helps me imagine better processes for my own. I didn’t even realize you taught in Skillshare. I’ve been a subscriber since the olden days when they used to schedule in-person classes as well as online ones. Going to check out your classes now! Keep up the good work!

KZfaq recommended a mini iPad review and I've been watching ever since. I'm recommending you to peeps too.

Found you on KZfaq based on a comment you made on another channel. Watched this entire video and was very interested in how you got started…thanks for sharing. I am very much interested in all of this creative stuff. You got me…SUBSCRIBED!

Found you on KZfaq and then followed on IG. One of the best iPad illustration focused channels I’ve seen. I travel a lot and have made it a point to go through your videos when I fly. I think I’ve seen them all now! And I look forward to new ones coming out. Appreciate the transparency and willingness to smash the KZfaq gatekeeping. Well done!

I'm from Brazil and I love your channel! Please keep going! Found you last month and I'm obsessed with your art, your videos and the Fresco Fryday staff...

You are my favorite art youtuber. Keep t going. I plan to be a member, as soon as my finances stabilize.

Hey! I’m a blader + professional designer/illustrator too! Love your stuff. Totally made me double take when those skate clips showed up.

I'm enjoying your videos sir. Just to share, I discovered you on youtube. : )

Found you on KZfaq. I never saw your content before. My search interest was growing an art channel. Great stuff. I subbed.

Congratulations on the 10k subscribers, and for all your honesty. I really like watching your videos, and they get better and better! Keep going🎉

I don't think that I've ever commented on a KZfaq video. You have compelled me! Thanks for your videos, I'm glad to part of your community. I had never seen your work before discovering your KZfaq channel. You asked, that's my answer...

You're so sweet, thanks for being so vulnerable!

I found you on KZfaq by searching procreate tutorials because I was struggling with the layers. And now I use both procreate and fresco. I really enjoy your Channel

Found you on KZfaq last year and love your videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Keep it up 👍

I found you through KZfaq and I am not subscribed to a ton of channels. Your videos are so personal so I had to click that subscribe button.

this is such an interesting video! i am an illustrator (im in my 30s) with ADHD myself thinking about starting something similar and its so awesome to see you being a step ahead and sharing your experience ! thank you

I discovered you last week on KZfaq. You convinced me to make fresco my #1 app on my Ipad Pro after not knowing anything about it. I do both vector automotive art and painterly landscape illustrations and I've always gone back and forth between Photoshop and Illustrator. Fresco is starting to feel like t one app to do it all for me. Anyways , thanks for sharing this with us and congrats on 10K subs!

Long time ig follower here! Has been good to see/hear more from you! I prefer yt because I find the content more in depth/useful and searchable!

Glad I found you're channel here on YT. This video was really inspiring because I went through the same experiences as you and now I'm hitting 100K subs. Keep going mate, you're on the right path.

I stumbled upon your channel a few weeks ago, when I was going down a fresco rabbit hole! My most recent hyperfocus has been drawing on my iPad (now with a fancy new Zugu case!😅), thanks very much for all the useful and entertaining advice!

I enjoy the content of your videos. Especially about Illustration. Keep it up!🎉

Discovered you on KZfaq as well 🍻 and this channel will be huge if you continue putting out quality stuff!! Go Chris!

Congratz on 10k! & thanks for being transparent

Love your channel. Keep it up.

Fab man. Enjoy the insight and illustrations

Hi, i have been following for a while now, since 2011 !!! love the videos !!!!! i will keep supporting you!!!!!

Glad you kept at it! I hope that eventually this will make a fair chunk of change for you and that you will continue to enjoy it. I found you on TikTok with your zine idea and I was like hey thats pretty neat and i like his color and styles. Then I learned Fresco from you (i should say I am still learning) Keep going!

Well done. I believe in you 🇦🇺❤️

you are such a fucking beastly artist i am a die hard fan of your channel. keep it going.

Found you on YT. I love all your insights!

Great video. Really appreciate your openness and frank approach to what you are aiming for and achieving here. Only recently discovered your channel and enjoying the brilliant and creative content. Thanks for sharing. Wishing you all the best for the future.

Also congrats on your subscriber count!!

I’m from Instagram, happy to be here as well 😂

@5:44 is pretty much me, all day, everyday. Glad I found your channel. You're ADHD sounds a lot like mine!

Attempting to get the engine going for a new channel is definitely hard. I agree with you so much on this. I am want to get my channel going, but one of the main plugs in that system is time. Not only from the perspective of the time to put into the work... to put into making a video, but the time to do it too. It's a lot for one person: And that's just KZfaq! Artist shoulder a lot of work that is rarely considered a part of the craft. *_Chris, I love your stuff. I'm proud to support your efforts as what little I can give._*

your videos are so pleasant to watch at 2x speed!!😃👏 but when you reach 50k, i feel like you *should do an update* on this video. you’ve grown *soooooooo* much! and i *appreciate* it sooo much that you didn’t outsource editing, because your videos are so *unique* and HILARIOUS!! have a nice day !

"For whatever reason I decided to do it." In my house we say, "ADHD made me do it." When I get set on an idea that could be fun or interesting it suddenly becomes a thing I now "have" to do and I'm going to enjoy every minute of it. ADHD impulses or not we're all better off for having you here and I appreciate your content... As an ADHD graphic designer with a love of punk culture and someone who has been flirting with illustration... I found your Abobe Fresco videos while debating Fresco over procreate since I do most of my work out of illustrator and photoshop anyway. I was immediately hooked lol.

Found you on KZfaq , looking for Fresco videos. Love your channel!

I really liked your Fresco vid. Searching for Fresco tutorials is how I discovered you. There still doesn’t seem to be many vids on Fresco from artists.

Thank you for everything you’re doing! It’s been a big help to me and I appreciate it very much!

Glad to see your channel growing fast! Great value watching your work, much deserved ❤

I found your channel, then followed on insta. It was the video you made about your journey to becoming an illustrator that inspired me to learn graphic design. I now have 2 clients and I love it. Unfortunately, I can’t draw to save my life, but it’s nice to find a medium to express my creative side. It’s hard work, my healthcare job has me working over 50hr weeks but I find time everyday to create something and learn more. Thanks!

Hiya Chris. I started following you on KZfaq when you launched. I have been a fan and following you on IG for years. I'm so stoked your channel has been gaining momentum. I really REALLY dig your vids. They strike so true for me in so many ways. As a creative with health challenges and ADHD, your vids have helped me get through a rough day, or two.... ok, weeks. Thank you for the genuine shares and posts. The "Because Internet" was an amazing referral!! As an old internet person (GO UO!!! Ultima Online), it has been a challenge at times communicating via message with some consumers. That book really was an eye opener..... like, really. A lot of ah-ha moments.

Way to go Chris! I am super proud of and inspired by your growth! I have loved seeing the progress of you and this channel. Keep moving forward brother!

1) I am SO HAPPY for you Chris! You’re channel is truly one of my faves, and B) I am a bit jealous. I too have done a lot to update my gear blah blah blah but still (sad trombone), nope, no dice, and III)This is really really inspiring! Keep it up! Woot!

Thanks for the shout out! I happened across you from the algorithm pointing. I had watched videos on Procreate so I was thrown the Procreate Vs. Fresco video. I was reluctant to switch but you sold me on the animation layers. Thanks for sharing your behind the scenes adventure. Congratulations on the 10k! Way to find the hoops and then jump through them. I’m still hunting them and tripping miserably. 😂 jk. I’m more of a rebel and try to make my own hoops off the beaten path apparently. 😊😅

I just discovered your channel through KZfaq because I was searching for Adobe Fresco content. With the numbers you are giving that’s a pretty good growth rate for such a new channel. I think Fresco is getting pretty close to Procreate. Only a few features missing like naming layers you can see next to layers. I think as Fresco gets more popular with its constant updates your channel should grow with it. Keep up the awesome work.

Never seen you before a few days ago. But saw the Fresco videos recommended by THE ALGORITHM and I've been a bit excited about all the things it does and I also have ADHD (pretty sure) and have been binge watching your stuff to learn more about Fresco. Would love to see a follow up on this video later this year to see how the finances continue to trend. I've always been curious about the income of smaller youtube channels, but as you pointed out, it's hard to find.

Would be interesting to hear how this has evolved. Found you through Fresco tutorials on KZfaq.

Gald to be a member! I'm a professional videogame concept artist in Seattle and while I LOVE drawing for my job your channel has inspired me to get back to doing more personal art in my free time! (USING FRESCO of course lol) and I'm currently shooting my very own first you tube eppisode!~ So I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your hard work! Lastly from an ex-pro videographer your video production quality is top tier! (that said I hope you are taking time to rest once and a while!)

Big fan, thank you for your „time waste“!

Great to hear it's going well Chris. Keep going dude!

Thanks!

I found you in a search on you tube. Looking to learn simple animation in Fresco. I am an illustrator also . I only have apps on my iPad Pro so you are like the only one I found who could explain the techniques on apps like Fresco & illustrator. I haven’t seen any for Adobe Rush app or capture those would be good also. Thank you for your help.

Congrats on 10k!! You worked hard

I found you on KZfaq, I was looking for videos on Fresco and animations :)

Great video. I love your channel. I’m about to embark on a basement buildout. My basement is raw, so curious if yours was and if you’ll share how much you spent on your office?

I found you here from your new office video.

Found this channel through the procreate vs fresco video. You should definitely get a partnership with fresco

I saw you on KZfaq

Hi Chris, I certainly knew you from Instagram, it was easy to get you a follow over here, because I do really like your illustration and lettering style. Here in YT I’ve discovered your sense of humor and it is a nice bonus. Keep it up! 👍🏼

via KZfaq comparison video

I found you here on KZfaq because of your Compare procreate vs. fresco video. I only look at youtube. I don't bother with patreon, Instagram, etc. There is just too many to keep up with, so I don't bother. I started a youtube channel to promote my upcoming graphic memoir of how I used my health and fitness knowledge to stop my mother with mild dementia from forgetting me, and it worked. I'm trying to figure out how to publish it now, but I've learned that publishing is such a racket for us new authors where everyone gets more than me. ugggh. I'm getting views, but not subscribers, so it's frustrating. Can I ask how much youtube is paying you now with 10K subscribers?

Chris, Thank you for being transparent about your process and YT revenue. This video makes me want to start my channel back up. But im not sure what to create. I am a product designer that likes to draw not sure people would watch. But I think I will give it another go!

🧙‍♂️I miss the Wizard request . I request an emoji request before you say, “ Good talk” . Just say a random emoji and the O.G. People will know what to do. 😂

✨🤸⭐⭐⭐

Just curious, how much does SS pay and how competitive is it to get a course on there?

Thank you for the video! How many short and long video views per month do you need to get together to earn $100? ( I live in the USA)🎉

If I see some creator on KZfaq whose art I like (like yours), there is a strong chance I will follow them on Instagram. I generally don’t assume most Instagram creatives have a KZfaq, Behance or other video outlet. But I’m becoming more convinced KZfaq is the main vehicle for most creators to expand their following across their other platforms. It’s like ‘paratext’ for TV shows or movies where people will dive deep into other media for more related content. KZfaq is most likely the best ‘in’ or ‘mouth of the funnel’ for growing an audience so long as the video content is compelling.

I found you here not on IG, and followed you after watching 1 vid.

Found you on KZfaq, then also began following on IG ! 😊

Your content has been so inspiring. I found you on IG but I am subscribe on KZfaq. Unfortunately I only see your new videos on IG. My question is when I click on the new video while in IG, it plays in IG and not automatically opening in the YT app does that effect your views on YT? I have to remind my brain to click on the open app button. I hope I can do the contest that sounds fun! This video is great I always wanted to know how it actually works to be a content creator!

I found you on youtube

Found you through KZfaq!

I found you on KZfaq a couple of weeks ago while searching for Fresco tuts. Subscribec because you're great!! I also follow on IG.

Oh my gosh!!! I didn't know you did names for supporters! 🫨 You did mine So cool!

I found you on youtube. Later I went on instagram. I do not hide, you are a good motivation for action. I have a problem with this, a lot of things at the same time I would like to do, is it ADHD? 🫣

Thanks!
