I feel like your new watercolor art style is also influenced by kelogsloop! The white hair, gold, black blue and gray clouds. I think it's cool. You both are my INSPIRATIONS!

This is reaaaaally inspiring! It reminded me of the time when I used to just copy anime drawings, dreaming about getting good enough to make my own, but then I've discovered myself. The next phase was drawing people, and dreaming about being good enough to make portraits, but gloriously failing every time, to the point in which I really thought I will never be able to paint a portrait. Until I did. And now I've learned that you can improve no matter what. You just need to keep trying and finding yourself.

These are all amazing. I know as artists there’s always something that we notice and dislike more about certain pieces. My work after four years is still hit and miss because my health is bad and can’t draw every day. You are so amazing with hands, they look so amazing James. As always you rock! Xxx

Great job with your videos. I am really enjoying watching them. I realize I'm about to run out though! I am not an educated artist at all and I cringe whenever someone asks me what my art style is because I'm not really sure🤣 I love your art! Just beautiful!😍

I'm just over 6 minutes in but I have to comment RIGHT NOW HOW MUCH I LOVE YOUR MIKE WAZOWSKI DRAWING!!! I want one!

I really love this kind of videos because every single person hast their own journey and that's amazing. I relate with a lot of what you said! I think you're the first one that doesn't use a sketchbook. Would you ever recreate the ones you didn't like that much or hate in your style? that would be a great video or a serie of them.... Do you always plan ahead your drawings and make a copy and paint them or how does it work for you? OMG! i think the first two post i saw from you're account were the self-portrait and the draw this in your style but if im not wrong it was from an account that recreated it. I DIDNT KNEW THAT ABOUT LILO AND STITCH AND I LOVE IT EVEN MORE NOW!. If you like musicals you should watch SMASH, it was a tv show about a musical about Marilyn Monroe

The beginning of the video vs the end of it, it looks like two different artists really! How come I'm in love with every single thing you draw? 😍 I mean your cartoon style was so good too, I love every artwork you've made so far, even the ones you don't like and those you didn't even talk about! 😅 This video is so inspiring and watching your growth and how you've improved is amazing! So thank you for this, ( as a late follower from your lately Queen of thorns dtiys ) to let us watch your artistic journey! 💕

You are fantastic. Here you are blooming like a gorgeous flower, and then there's me... I always tell myself that I want to learn art, but I never really had the energy to start practicing. I guess you can say that I'm happy and content seeing all of you wonderful people!

Very glad to find your insta all the way back when you drew Zeus, your art style is amazing, love your videos, you where one of the reasons I started to paint with watercolors again 💙

This reminded me a lot of myself , I used to do random fan arts and nothing so original. Then again same as you I got really bored and annoyed of everything, and one day something just clicked in my head and I started to take the things that I really love and do original works. Made a new ig page and just went with it 😄. I absolutely love your new art style and can't wait for more amazing works from you 💖

I just loved the whole transition from Disney fan arts to seeing you finding your own art style!!💖💖☺️🤩 that's so amazing!! Really happy for you! I have been personally struggling with this..trying to find my own art style...and sometimes it does feel really so disappointing...constantly having this feeling that u r not good enough..I've taken som time off few months back n I'm practicing a lot n trying my maximum to improve my skills... I felt really good after watching this video...its really what I was looking for these days..i could really relate to it...☺️☺️😊😁💖💖 great job!!😁😁🎉😀😀

I finally have time to watch this video through. First question already, where can I find that how to paint a horn video? :D Secondly, I feel you so much with the push and pull, I'm in that stage right now. Dark/Light, Cartoony/Realistic etc. I'm really looking forward to your next work and video :) It's crazy how much and in such a short time your art changed. Motivating :) Wish you all the best! This weekend I'll be in Lodon for the first time. I've seen the countryside which I really loved so I'm a bit nervous. Usually I don't like big cities. Any recommendations?

I love listening to your insights into your works, you sound so genuine and excited when you talk about them and I love hearing that. As someone who still is trying to find my niche with regards to style and skill, I always feel sort of conceited when I look at my works and go “oh that’s really good, I like that!” and I end up feeling like a fake or a copycat. Thank you for sharing all of these amazing works and for sharing your journey as an artist. I am soooooooo in love with everything I’ve seen so far, and I hope I can get to a point where I can look back and see my own progress like you’ve done! Thank you for being an inspiration 💚

Love your art style ❣

Amazing!!!

I loveee your videos I could rewatch them all day ❤️love that this one was so long

Your growth is so inspirational, James! Your work just keeps improving with every piece. I cannot wait to see how much you continue to evolve in 2020 😊 Excellent video!

It's really interesting to see your transition. Fascinating how one gets from just drawing exactly what you see/others styles/random stuff to a style that's personal and your own. I feel I'm somewhere in the middle of that process at the moment and hope, I can say what you are now, sometime in the future. I really like your artwork and I enjoy your watercolor tutorials. Also I really like just seeing the process of artwork from the first thumbnails to the finished piece.

It's amazing to see your journey laid out this way and honestly was such a fun trip down memory lane 💕 James you are truly an inspiration and I am so proud of you. You just keep exceeding yourself 💕

Really interesting to see your artistic journey! Your art is really one of my favorite things on Instagram, it's so unique and poetic! 😊

I love your art so much!!! I want to be able to create the same kind of feeling I get with your art when I draw

That’s a great journey of yours! I feel super frustrated right now because I can’t find my style. But I guess, I need more that one month of drawing constancy to do that 😂😂

So inspiring ! Thank you !

This is so cool. I loved seen your journey, it really inspired me to keep creating. It would be great to see Part 2, with your work from 2020-2021. Also, maybe you can tell us the story behind Finelinernerd. :D greetings from Ecuador.

I LOVE the piece at 14:42 that you said you hate! I am an aspiring artist and while I watched this video I squealed to my husband that I LOVE ART SO MUCH! You inspire me :)

Great video! Very interesting transition. Many of these would make great tattoos!

Oh myyy it was so amazing, to go with you though your art journey 😍 Im really happy that you find your unique art style, which is soooo beautiful 🥰😍 I wish I could do the same 😂 But its hard when Im enjoying doing everything. Sometimes I feel like doing full detailed, full shaded piece and the other day I want this simple, cartoony look. Sometimes I just want to use bright colors and then I want to do a night piece where there is almost no colors. And it all makes my art so... inconsequent and messy... I hope one day something will „click” and zi will decide what exactly I wanna do 😁 And watching your journey gives me motivation to keep going ❤️

These are quite amazing to see ! Consistency and trying to be true to what you love makes wonder ... inspire me for my own journey ! I felt bad trying out digital + watercolor + markers at the same time. I feel like I am more drawn to traditional so I am going to take it more deeply and leave out the rest ! :D

came from insta. luv u bro

I think there's got to be a healthy combination of both..... Somethings copying or making fan art is a great tool to focus on art techniques and study as opposed to coming up with a concept.....

Hi buddy, I really enjoyed this video, and you really hit a very sensitive nerve with me when you mentioned the bit about not getting used to drawing in sketchbooks, as you feel pressured to making sure that the quality of each sketch/drawing is consistent...THAT'S EXACTLY BEEN MY DILEMMA. I much prefer sketching out on the white perforated computer paper, it's fantastic value for money and so amazingly smooth. Although the downside is I end up with tons of paper sketches everywhere, enough to run my own recycling plant!! I'm so glad that you understand this "sketchbook phobia". I'm sorry to hear that your artwork was stolen, that's one of the drawbacks on posting your work out there for everyone to see, however unless you do, no one is gonna know that you exist. Anyway, I hope to see more of your brilliant artwork. Talking of controversial art, I like to go to coffee shops and fast food restaurants and sit down eat, drink and draw. I draw loads of dragons, too many actually, anyway I had an idea for a drawing of a holy man/ shaman offering a pissed off dragon a sacrifice... a human sacrifice off a human child/baby... but decided against it in the end. I didn't fancy spending the weekend at A&E 😂😂 On a serious note, it is an interesting topic on whether an artist should draw the line on what is moralily correct/acceptable, or if artistic freedom doesn't know any boundaries. I suppose if I was drawing in my own home then it's different but when you're drawing in a public place you have to be mindful of where you are, which is why I wouldn't draw any naked bodies. I'd love to hear your views and thoughts about this. Stay safe and creative buddy, speak soon 😊❤

U r good. Keep at it … please 🙏🏻

You are amazing

You are great with your Disney I could have been better by now

I love when you started including the pops of gold in your art. When I see it on Instagram I know it’s you without even looking at the username

I wish I had the same experience on instagram as you haha 3 years on there and yeah :/

I absolutely adore the dany picture 🥰 Your work is just amazing. Thanks for all your videos I can now binge watch them lol
