"When you create from curiosity THEN YOU'RE LIVING" facts.

It's like Bob Ross... but I'm on acid and lost in a city I don't know and my grandma won't stop calling

Most of my life i thought the game was playing to win. When i live this way there is always a fear of losing. Play, win, or lose. I have a new game. Play, play, play. Make art play. Thats the mantra today 😊

If you ever have doubts about making these videos, don't. They're great!

Thanks for bringing the child out in a bunch of anxiety-ridden adults

Art is for the fearless. My entire life I didnt pursue art & didn’t respect artists because somehow I got it into my head that artists are ungrateful (they pursue their passion and that makes them ungrateful instead of those that work hard to get “practical” jobs). I worked hard at the practical things - A’s in school, take classes because it looks good for college, all of that. I lived a miserable 30 years & ended up a total loser working passionless minimum wage jobs. I didnt have skills because I was passionless about everything I’d ever done. Now I’m going for art. I’m more terrified than I’ve ever been in my life. I could end up homeless. What about a.i.? what if I’m not good enough? Art is for the fearless because to become an artist - to be able to shut those scared voices up just to learn, you’ve gotta be fearless.

GNONG PROPHETT ✨

I just realized that university and the pressure to conform screwed with my curiosity. Your videos have been healing me in so many ways David. Thank you. The timing is just perfect ❤

watching you cures my depression.. for a few minutes

"True creativity, true art is when you create from curiosity."

Wow I really needed this. Thank you weird internet man.

Freestyle creativity is arguably the hardest type. It's easier when you have a pre-existing topic in mind, and then create from there without a pre-set template

David just reminded me why Art is important.

“i AM a Los Angeles hipster” love, dude. these videos work.

Telepathically telling you to draw the sky and then you draw the moon! Righteous 😊

Dude, i just found your channel like a week ago, and it's completely changed how i approach art, and im having so much more fun making art now... thank you 🤙

Seeing depressed artists made me want to run the opposite direction, which was contradictory cause making art was my fun outlet!

Dude you are fulfilling Bob Ross's lane in a way only you can. I love it. Obviously no one can compare you to him or him to you. But that anxiety reducing, vibey curiosity and whimsical lightnesss. Yess.

I think I'm the only one who knows you because of this channel, and I'm grateful to meet your best version.

David Choe is the new Bob Ross. Long live David Choe 🐸

After watching a bunch of these. I feel like you'd be perfect at writing a children's show that delves into these sorts of perspective shifts. You allow yourself to be playful and fun while overcoming some pretty heavy negative self talk and self destructive patterns that a lot of people, especially artists/creators experience. In a way you already do it here and it's a great way to deliver a message. Thank you for being a positive voice in my brain.

David Choe is the most relatable successful person ever.

Choe has always been good at FREE-STYLE and being free is the best way.

A wise man once said “I’m only taking advice from people wearing full pink jumpsuits”…I like that 🤔 another wise man once said “My ultimate dream is to sow seeds in the desert. To revegetate the deserts is to sow seed in people's hearts” -Masanobu Fukuoka ☔️♥️🦋

Watching your videos is changing my mindset. I feel more alive

Wow. This video inspired me. For a long time now I haven‘t been drawing due to stress and everytime I try my brain just shuts off and pictures of perfect instagram artists pop up as well as the thought of what I‘m gonna create will be seen by people. I‘ve been restricting my thoughts and creativity in every way but then asking myself why I dont like creating. But as I watched this video I felt like a child with a free mind again. I really felt my heart pumping. I felt a smile across my face waiting to laugh out loud. This feeling is what I’ve been searching for when drawing.

The agility of seeing ones plan not quite panning out the way one imagined it then evolving it to something new is an amazing skill

So I'm messing with oil pastels today and I did this *exact practice* this morning and I absolutely loved it. Being mindful in your expressionism is like weird wonderful meditation but at the end you have some art. Thanks again for a cool lesson.

This video is the TRUE "endless creativity hack" 🙏 thanks David!

at first, i was like: “Wtf am i going to resent that Dave says today?” the fault was on me as there are genuinely so many (non sarcastic here) nuggets of wisdom in the first half of this vid alone. an absolute gem of an upload. much appreciated!

Full blown leaning into yourself! That’s heaven, man. And all you can really do when you’re happy is share and show the way. Thanks for basking and reveling in your you-ness, it’s wonderful to learn from and experience!

As a professional Balloon artist who has been making balloon for almost 15 years, I approve. Keep it weird! also I absolutely loved the editing of this video David, so glad I bumped into your channel.

I recently had a psychosis due to bipolar disorder. Your videos helped me get started with abstract art 💕

Bringing the much needed "Don't take yourself too seriously" to the art world one video at a time. Thank you sir 🙌

I know you from KZfaq. Never heard of you prior to that and now I can't stop watching. Not only are you creative, you seem like a really nice person and that's important to me.

I have been going through a really rough time dave,i made a few mistakes recently,i got fucked over really bad somebody stoke all my money i had,and been really depressed lately,and cant seem to get out of it. I watched some of your interviews,and now,been watching this and it gives me a little joy in my day.thanks

That hat is ALL THAT. And I am here for this choe era. All in. ❤️✌🏼

These videos you’ve been posting are my favourite and the most honest/true inspirational videos I’ve watched in years- So natural. A breath of fresh air. Artist to artist - Thank you ! 🙏🏻

These videos feed my creative soul and inspire me to hold my art lightly. Keep making them please!

owning who you are is probably the most important thing any of us can do - rock on my hipster friend, rock on

Don’t care! Don’t care what people think of you! Like your techniques! Free! Be free! 🥰💜

Hey david I found a pdf of your comic book from the 90s i think on some odd website and it’s really inspired me , Thank

This video is starting my healing journey, I can feel it!

5:37 That’s the spirit!

Never heard of you before until now this video was recommended. Truly fabulous and profound. I want to watch it again with both my 3 year old niece, and my 70 year old mother who paints water colour landscapes. I loved everything in this video. It reassured me that my own sincerely playful practice is not immature or amateur, but richly wonderful. Im looking forward to delving into more of your channel. Thank you for this little happiness injection!

more CHOE SHOW please

love this gen z mr rogers / bob ross vibe acid vibe

I always feel a bit of a blend of blankness and curiosity when creating anything. I get told I should focus but I don't want to put any expectations on what is to come, just curiosity and hope for what will be.

Hey David I just wanted to say I love you and you’ve brought some inspiration to my life. Don’t ever change

You're my new favourite person on YT.

I love it here

Thank you so much for making videos

David you are my new favorite KZfaqr, I eat this weird artist stuff up and I can't wait to make weird, curious art

Mr. G. Prophett: your approach to art and life is keeping me going. I'm making a lot of ugly art these days and sometimes I'm curious and sometimes I'm resentful and sometimes I'm scared and sometimes I'm indifferent to what I'm making. BUT I JUST KEEP GOING ANYWAY. Because you never know what's gonna happen. It's gonna be interesting no matter what I do. Maybe I'll learn something. Maybe I'll forget I ever did it (more likely). But with every painting, a certain freedom and confidence is growing in my chest like a delicate baby bird. And I thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me foster that little spark.

Each day made it's own day is a genuine day

Thank you for making these videos Dave! I'm an indie game dev that never really figured out how to create a career with my niche projects. I've been really struggling with motivation and creativity recently trying to start a more traditional career path in the industry to pay the bills. These recent videos have really helped me get through the days!

Best time to watch david is 1 in the morning then I sleep, dream, wake up then proceed to spit up whatever creative juices that are inside me!

Your videos inspire me with my art and life. You remind me of an old great friend. Thanks David ❤

thanks david i will use your wisdom for good

My only mistake was not finding this sooner!

All the lessons and teachings our society needs 🙏

thank you David, thank you for starting this channel, it’s my therapy sessions that i can’t afford, so thank you, i started to believe more in myself and my abilities. thank you David for being you , love you & i wish u the best, good health tu you & your family

Everything worth while goes unnoticed in its process

I draw from a place of feariosity.

LOVE the ballon sculptures!!

Im curious about composing, and I am composing myself to remain curious. Like the endless cycle of life and death that are two halves of the same whole, one seeks the other eternally, endlessly, jubilantly.

I am 44 years old artist and your "Why not me" has just influenced me to make my best art series Ever! Thank you!

Ayyy Choe- man totally resonates. I really enjoy these vids thank you. From Artist to Artist

More please. Take us art supply shopping

I'm happy to be here. I know you from David chang. I just resigned from an arts and crafts guild that was a non profit.

Thank you so much, David. For allowing us into your world. You're a truly enlightened individual. A living kaleidoscope of light. And every time I step into that light, I am transported and inspired in ways that i could never have imagined.... Luv and respect to you.

Hey David, you as a youtuber is by far the best thing that has happend to internet in like forever. I wish I had something cooler to write, but it's not about beeing cool.
