i dont understand how his PENCIL lines are THAT SHARP

you are the person who whispers his emotions to the paper.

Amazing video ! 🙏🏼

Kelogsloops gets way less credit than they should, their art's absolutely beautiful, and they put so much damn effort into each beautiful painting, I can only wish that I had that profession, and I'm so proud and happy that they show us their art, we don't deserve. Thank you so much for the help Kelogsloop's, you've helped me improve every day and I REALLY appreciate all you're hard work.

Im actually so happy you posted this. for my high-school final piece, we have to research an artist and do a study on their life art, techniques methods .etc. Your work is so well thought and amazing, i had to choose you as an artist and my teacher loved you too! This video will be so helpful you have no idea. Thank you so much i love you and your art so much! Keep chasing your dreams! Youre a massive inspiration 💛

LMAO I've been following you on instagram and I've been addicted to your "will it peel" series on your story 😂

Glad I’m not the only one who listens to the same music on repeat - it absolutely keeps me in a consistent mindset - otherwise jarring music changes would create chaos in my head and affect the work

That amazing in tune falsetto singing at 1:06 thooooooo 😂

I wanna hear from you guys! Do you listen to music when you create stuff, does it inspire you in any way? If anything, what do you guys listen to? For me, I ALWAYS listen to music, and most of the time I listen to slower songs when I paint, but there are times when even something like EDM can inspire something! Then the next piece, I might listen to something mellow. Right now though, I'm listening to a track by EISU & Enluv, "Just Friends" as I'm working on a new piece :)

That's the first time i see someone doing a art thumbnail like that. So amazing 😀😍😍

Honestly there's nothing more refreshing than hearing another artist speak about being a perfectionist and nitpicky and how they cope with the difficulties that come with this kind of attitude. Your work is absolutely stunning and I thoroughly respect and appreciate the patience and thoughtfulness that you put in each of your pieces.

Music and drawing is what makes it whole in a different level!

This channel is really under appreciated....

Such a beautiful way to visually describe the oasis we build for ourselves internally. xo

The gold leaf and metallic accents bring a whole new dimension to your artwork, they’re so beautiful!

So interesting that this piece can mean many things. For me, I instantly thought of myself being protected within my comfort zone of silence, with outside noise being blocked from entering. I am someone who _despises_ noise; I can't even listen to music for too long (which is the exact opposite meaning of this piece, yet I still feel relevant to it, ya know?), I can barely watch TV, my nightmares consist of just background noises, and I hate human voices in particular in any scenario. I live in a quiet suburb area for this reason, and I felt the familiar comfort I feel in total silence when I saw this artwork, which has never happened before because my washing machine is running, and my severe irritability was momentarily suspended. Thank you. Your piece connects to people in different ways and has a thousand different meanings. You sir, are a true artist.

Dude I can’t. You’re so talented I’m screaming.

Your art is just amazing. When I look on beautiful paintings I think, wow that's nice. But your artworks are just mindblowing.

Music usually keeps me in...the creative mood. The rhythm of it releases all the creative juices in my brain and lets me think of compositions and ideas for when I'm drawing, especially sketching. Not to mention that I love listening to people talk about a specific subject and I listen to them as if I were with them in person. Just like in this video, I was sketching a piece while listening to you speak of your process. That's pretty much it!

I was honestly encouraged as an artist to hear how the art you were exposed to growing up shaped your style. I’ve just never been particularly comfortable with doing sharp lines, and sometimes I feel bad about it. But considering the art I grew up with (e.g. Alan Lee’s work) my style makes sense! Thanks for sharing

I usually dont listen to music when i draw, just because i constantly found myself distracted with all the noise. For me drawing in absolute silence ( usually in the night) is the best way for me to draw.

Thumbnails Sketchbook Flip Through! :D

I usually listen to something that matches the feeling of what I'm painting. Bouncy music for cartoons, peaceful music for landscapes, hard music for action scenes, etc. Love your work, btw. And it was definitely insightful to watch the process. Thanks!

Literally every single time I draw, paint , watercolor I ALWAYS LISTEN TO MUSIC! It just inspires so so so much. Its great

Omg the peel porn at the end! Just haah. 😌

Even the Artists words from the article excerpt is art wow what a well spoken and talented person The little painting/sketch is better than anything I would make 😭

I like to listen to music when drawing or painting because it gets me into the right mood and helps me focus on what I am doing. The music I listen to usually always reflects what I want to show in my work

Listening to a song on repeat to stay in the right mood for a painting hits the exact right tone for me! Completely agree, I do it all the time!

i listen to music for everything, literally when im reading, writing a story, drawing, painting, sometimes even on repeat just to keep that same mood going as i do so, relateable hahaha

hope one day you will publish your own artbook

Sometimes I come back to this video when I feel uninspired or lonely because each word you say makes so much sense and it all just brings me back to the point of why i'm here and why I want to be here. How I've gotten this far. thank you for such a nice video! and thank you inspiring me.

I 100% listen to music when i draw, paint, design, sew and build. I also completely agree that listening to music while creating helps to maintain the same headspace, especially if the artwork is inspired by sound but i also think it helps to translate sound into a visual. i think your work is really cool. thank you for sharing!

You are one of the BEST watercolor Artist. I've seen so far... Wow!

damn ive missed you... its been so long

I adooooore Gustav Klimt. I have since I was a wee one--I got a book filled with his work, really beautiful color photos, for $6 at a clearance sale when I was 10 years old, and it started an obsession that has never faded. Your art sparked the same "ooooh" feeling I get when I look at Klimt's work, which is why I had to click on your thumbnail. I do listen to music when I create! I feel like music bypasses logical structures and other limiting factors, which is essential for accessing creativity.

Peeling the tape off of a watercolor piece is probably the most therapeutic part of the process aside from the line work for me. It just feels so good, especially paired up with the appropriate music

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO DUDE! I'm a novice using watercolor and I have you to thank for inspiring me to try the medium (Thank you lol).I 've been trying to come up with an appropriate work flow for the longest while so this definitely helps loads!! Thank you so much!

The finish product looks sooo good and creative ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍

I listen to music every time I am either painting or drawing because it inspires me and helps me focus on my artwork and lets me zone out and help form the ideas in my head and put them on the paper.

You know that "pure magic" thing you felt? Thats exactly how i feel about your art. I came across one of your pieces on Tumblr and I was só amazed, i was really sad that i couldnt find the artist att that time. But now, suddenly i find this vídeo. Your are makes me feel like i am looking into a mirror thats able to reflect my soul, and thats wonderful. You inspire me, and I hope to be able to do the same to other people one day.

I love this SO much!! The video concept, the painting, the voiceover - EVERYTHING!! I know exactly what you mean with the fear of that at first brush stroke/line on the paper 😂😂🙈 Keep up the good work! Super inspiring!

I'm doing GCSE art and your videos really help me so much! I loved the gold leaf metallic idea and the execution was immaculate! I tend to listen to music when I do my own art and it inspires me so much however we have to have a reference for every single little detail in my art course which makes it horrible to do fantasy art which is wat I tend to be inspired with

never stopped saying WOW while watching the whole video thank you man

i listen to music constantly. when i'm cooking, reading, drawing, working and just hanging out. the one moment where i specifically work without music though, is when i'm choreographing(i'm a dancer) even if i'm choreographing to a specific song, i don't have the music playing while i create. i'll listen to the song, think of movement in my head and maybe step around a little bit and then from my memory of the song create the choreography. that way i can go through the song slowly in my own tempo, and i can start, stop, rewind and redo without having to break out of my "bubble" to fix with the music.

I love working with goldleaf also ,masking fluid ,most people don't realize it's a glue ,it has a shelf life ,like you i learned the hard way ,if I use it now i always test it on a scratch piece of paper ,the same as what I will paint on,tfs this gorgeous piece,i listen to music sometimes.

this was so therapeutic and inspiring to watch! really, thank you for sharing your creations and your process with us. 💛

I not often listen to music, but when I found track exactly about mood of my piece, listening it is such exciting! That's what I mostly love

I listen to music as well when I draw or paint. listening to music makes me fantasize and create stories in my head that I later want to work out. I listen to all genres as they give me all different ideas, take me into different worlds. I really like watching your progress and as always your art stays amazing!

Wow this was brilliant work. I wish I could paint like this.

I love your paintings, I want to learn to paint but I'm so lazy, I have watched your tutorials already and I learned a lot but have yet to look for my own paint styling. I draw animes! I listen to classical music when I draw, it keeps me focused and let my brain or thoughts relax and aligned (?)

It’s actually has been a year of me procrastinating about trying to start using watercolor. The reason why it’s been a long time is because I’m afraid of trying something new because I’ve been too comfortable at just sketching. There’s always that feeling of giddiness bc I’ve always wanted to use watercolor but then again there’s always this worry that I would not be able to get out of my comfort zone, that I wouldn’t be good enough at using watercolor. But you’ve actually inspired me to start using watercolor and not be afraid of getting out of my comfort zone because that’s how we learn to better ourselves so thank you so much🙏🏻🙏🏻

The aesthetic that you bring into your paintings has always been so inspiring to me

UR MY ROLE MODEL

Can you do a tutorial on the initial line drawing? I’m ok at abstract form water colour, but rubbish at drawing and thus actual objects. I would rather paint actual objects or landscapes.

So I watched this video last night. I've been struggling with putting the art concepts that I think of in my mind, down on paper. And I remembered your style and way of working and I clicked on this video. This is now the next day and I HAD to come back and leave a comment. Because watching this just unlocked something in me, in my process. Imogen's song is one of my favorites and I really wanted to sit down and listen to it, but I ended up listening to a song that has recently been my go to when i want to quiet down everything. The song is Exhale by Sabrina Carpenter. everything started to pour out of me, I had a notebook and a pencil and just let the ideas flow. I'm happy to say I've got my concept down and I am excited to bring it to life. Thank you for sharing this process. It was EXTREMELY helpful to me.

I totally get that feel as when i'm listening music looking at the piece, I do listen while drawing and painting, because music is the most inspiring thing for me & the thing that keeps me company during all the hours alone at my desk 💫 I can ultimately enjoy those hours

"I was awake at some crazy hour...6 am." Goddamn kids.

Kinda a dumb question, how do you make the gold leaves adhere?

Music is truly the best partner an artist could have while creating an art piece or for finding inspiration in.

WOW..just stunning..the article in the magazine does not do her justice..your work is beautiful as well as intricate ,I loved the gold leaf and the addition of the gold lines which were perfect,had they have been heavy it would not have been right..You told the story beautifully there was no need for words 😀

I am dying to know which song you use for your outro Please please I beg you

#AlwaysOnYTSquad

I often listen to one song or album on repeat while making an artwork, then if I hear the song later I am reminded of the process and the piece I made - and vice versa when I see the artwork, I think about the song.

I love listening to music because I find myself being more productive and I gain new inspirations and ideas, I also sometimes watch KZfaq in the background for ideas or some noise

I think he overdid it with his perfectionism. The lines were right, but he did it so squeaky clean, that it became concept art. He even describes it clearly at the end 8.56. It's a shame, for me atleast. On the other note about music while working on art: If i know for sure what i am gonna make, then yes. And or else, during, exploring, sketching, competitive setups it varies a lot. Because even though there are music that fits what i will work with it, there is no music that fits 100% to the work. So, depending on how long the work is, it will require many stops or replays. It does take some attention now and then. If turn on music that i use as "fuel" to work with, it both gets me "going" and also burns my energy up faster. It can help me get going for hours, but i feel like over 8-17 hours or more, it does drain a lot of energy. I usually then have two options: end it with some music and then go to rest or sleep with some music in running. If i sleep with the music running it keeps, i usually wake up some hours in. It helps me keep feelings and thoughts on where i have reached with the work.

When i paint is always kinda messy and sketchy sometimes I do neat lines and end with a softer/smooth result When I really REALLY focus while painting​ the music that I listen ends and I always end in silence 😅😂

I don't paint as much as I used to due to work but I always listen to music when doing so. It let's me escape my problems and I just feel at peace and I imagine so many things and it feels as if my true imagination comes out when I do.

I love listening to music while I draw or paint. It made me laugh to hear you say that you listen to a song on repeat because I do that too, lol, it sounds crazy but it’s THE best way to keep the same mood in your style. I also really enjoyed listening to your commentary on this video. ❤️

what is the music at the end

that one dislike was an accident

I haven't painted with watercolors in so long, seeing you has inspired to paint again. Thank you.

I can’t NOT listen to music, it’s my whole source of inspiration and the only way to really encapsulate myself into this artistic mindset. Like a bubble of creativity!

what type of inks do you use? the metallic ones

yup... i liked my own comment lol

I did two unusual pieces for my roommate's birthday. I say unusual, because the subject matter was not something of my usual interest. That being Jazz and city life LOL so I listen to Amy Winehouse on repeat while I did these pieces and they complemented each other perfectly and at the same time encompassed the personality of my roommate. They were abstract and he loved them. Thank you for this video I love listening to your narratives

Couldn't relate more to what you've said abt repeating music over and over while painting a piece!! It really sets the mood for me too

This video helps my artblock a lot. Or not artblock, I have been afraid to pick up art again for about four years.. I had a huge depression and after I got well again I went from drawing/painting almost everyday for 23 years to hardly draw at all, I have been doing at most two complete drawings a year after that time. I am and have always been a perfectionist. Thinking it is all in one go or nothing, and my fear of failing is so big and have grown bigger! I watch other videos and they mostly stars with the lineart which is already perfected. And watching your actual process helps a lot. The way you have a sketchbook and then process over trying varies of ways, and palettes. Thank you!

i love listening to flamenco (south spain traditional music) while painting, it gets you into a great mystic mood!!

I don't do it as often as I would like, but I do love listening to music while I create, especially when I'm just sketching because sometimes I end up with some interesting ideas inspired by what I'm listening to. Other times I listen to it while I'm working on a piece and it doesn't always correlate with what I'm doing, but it helps keep me in the art zone and distractions to a minimum.

i usually listen to music because the music i listen to reflects what i'm feeling in the moment in a similar way that my art does and it helps me to be able to fully express it in whatever i'm working on. also your art inspires me so much and has for a long time. it's incredible to be able to watch your progress and how it changes but by bit over time :-)

I was 15 seconds into the video when I subscribed... it happens rarely but your style, the way you explain things really convinced me to binge watch your channel

listening to music while painting is the best way to listen to your mind and feel free

I listen to music all the time. Except when I have to memorize something for school. Any activity I have through out the day,I keep on listening to any genre of music depending on my mood. It helps me concentrate and relax.

I do have to listen to music while drawing and painting. Music also keeps me in the current mood that I am while painting. I feel tired, bored of sleepy if I don’t have that background music that in many and strange ways inspires me and makes my thoughts flow.

OMG I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING YOUR TUMBLR FOR MONTHS BUT NEVER KNEW YOU HAD A KZfaq CHANNEL!!! THANK GOD THIS WAS IN MY RECOMMENDATION!!

I listen to music when it gives the right vibes and connects with what I am doing creating a little mood bubble for me or I go for quiet atmosphere where I can only hear nature around me and absolutely nothing else - if I can't go out into the woods due to the weather I put my headphones on and listen to natural sounds like waterfall or forest noises etc.

Thank you for sharing your process. Your work is so ethereal and delicate. Stunning! I find reassurance in the fact that I'm not the only one nervous about masking fluid! And yes - I do listen to music. I usually put one song on a loop and listen to it over and over while I work before switching to another song. This is meditative to me. The song blends into the background and I'm able to focus on painting. Thank you again for your videos!

I listen to music 24/7 also when I don’t paint or draw, it helps me relax and be more like myself. I have ADHD and it helps me concentrate and be more focussed on the present day. I really am addicted to music

I listen to music when painting because it "keeps me awake" and its calming me. its like that music is why you're painting and if you stopped it you just wouldn't be able to paint . That music is the inspiration and motive of what you paint. And that's why i listen to music while painting =)

Most of the time, I do listen to music. Especially when I’m in an environment that is rather busy around me. When i’m in this type of environment, the music somehow draws me in, helps me stay focused on what i’m doing. I personally have a really hard time paying attention, so the music helps cancel out the busyness in the background. However, when I’m alone I sometimes find it very calming and pleasing to just sit in the pure silence and draw. This is typically when I’m just practicing my sketching, line-art, or different facial features.

I loved seeing your process and had to listen to Hide And Seek on repeat and dramatic dance around the living room with my toddler afterwards! That was a good time so, thank you! Her and I also went to see that show with Klimt in SF and I was also crazy inspired- even though I knew his work from photographs, I stood in front of that plaster wall for like 15 minutes in complete aww as if understanding him and what he was trying to do in a whole new way. It was spiritual, for lack of a better word. I just came across the brochure for the show in an old sketchbook yesterday so this video feels especially poignant. Thanks for sharing and helping inspire me!

I get the whole listening to a song on repeat while working thing. A ton of the art/writing I do is based on music and so I listen to a lot of songs over and over. I have this one song that I listen to on a loop if I'm writing or painting something because I just know it so well that it drowns out everything around me so I can concentrate. (Love your art btw!)

Yes I do. Like you, it puts me in my own space and music just allows my creations to flow. There was one time though that I listened to an audio book while working on a class project. I had to create a piece in relation to the book, so listening to it helped and also influenced the piece a lot

Sometimes i do listen to music when i paint but other times i like the silence. and then sometimes i also listen to podcasts while drawing. it really depends on the mood that day. anyway i just want to say that this video has been very therapeutic for me to watch. thank you for sharing this!

Definitely music + art coz you can’t mess up these together! And they are just pure magic from God🧚🏼‍♀️🦄🎼🎧

I love love love all your work. Amazing job! So beautiful!!!

I feel the same tie between music and art. I so often find inspiration in a song, or sometimes an album, and I will listen to it on repeat the entire time I'm creating. Some may think it will get old listening to songs on repeat, but I can listen to them for hours, days, and weeks until the piece is done. I'm so excited to hear someone have a similar connection and process!

Thank you for bringing up the music on repeat process🙌🏾❤. It definetly helps to keep the mood i need for what im working on.

I watch youtube videos,anime, netflix or listen to music when i draw or paint. It gives me a good mood.

While painting I always listen to flute or piano instrumental, I seem to get more inspiration from music with alot of emotion. Thankyou for sharing your artwork, it gives me and most likely alot of other people the determination to keep on putting creativity on canvas.
