      @Braden-Hallett would it be just drawing? Or trying to finish a piece? I could see this being a series (especially because you only get 40 min. And we all know it can take longer than 40 to do a finished piece πŸ˜‚ ).

      It is such a fun idea!

        @Braden-Hallett Oh that sounds fun, and I'd like to showcase! πŸ˜ƒ I'd have to steal my boyfriend's microphone but that can be arranged lol

          Hi @Braden-Hallett, maybe we can share a recording of our pieces with voice over? I’m down for that, but live painting maybe not so much since I don’t have much free time at the moment. I’m busier than before with this damn virus...

                Great idea! There's always something to be gained by observing someone do their thing. I'd definitely tune in.

                I hope the publisher likes stick figures!!

                    My process is still in development I am afraid but I'd be interested in tuning into a couple.

                      @EliaMurrayArt Were you there for Will's videos the past few days? I believe he had everything done already, but demonstrated the process in little chunks, where he could show the technique, but then already had layers saved that was the finished product of the technique. He said a piece like the one he was working on would normally take around 20 hours. It was still very informative.

                      This may be a way for others to model their demonstrations.

                            I am really interested in how other artists work, like always want to see behind the scene. But I have a hard time imagining myself doing a showcase in 40mins and make it interesting for others to watch. I could easily spend 40mins not coming up with anything that I am remotely satisfied. I do not mind sharing my process for 40 minutes at all, but I am just worried it would be so boring to watch.

                              I'm more than willing. My only concern is that I'm still working out what my process actually IS. So I could share what I do today right now which might be different in a month from now πŸ™‚

                                I love this idea, Braden, great suggestion and I've love to see your process since your art is amazing, and there's so much we could learn from each other in this SVS community for sure. I don't feel like I have a lot to share but I'd be happy to give it a go. I'd be more inclined to want to pre-record rather than go live (I get nervous), especially since I think I work a bit more slowly than a lot of other artists I know.

                                I also have no idea about how to do it, e.g. what recording app to use and what hardware, such as microphone or whatever. Anyone got some good advice or links to good tips on how to set up and record tutorials or time lapses etc?

                                  @MattBaker replying to my own comment here, looks like I can screen record with Quicktime on my Mac and use my computer's somewhat tinny microphone for sound.

                                  I'd still like to know what the more professional setups are for this kind of thing though πŸ™‚

                                    I would like to share because I’ve gotten good feedback on some of my short process videos with watercolor. Although, I GUARANTEE that it will be poorly recorded with long awkward silences. 😬

                                      Tune in for the first one and if it looks like something you'd like to do, then we can set it up I'm sure!

                                        @Braden-Hallett Setting up a piece in layers to turn on layer by layer to show process is a pretty great way to do it, I reckon, thumbs up.

                                          This sounds like a great idea @Braden-Hallett ! I'd definitely tune in. Would love to see how other artists work. Maybe when I gain a little confidence in showcasing my process, would try a pre-recorded session or a pre-illustrated session and describe it layer wise.

                                            @burvantill I love your process images from the bear. I would love to see more of your process.
                                            @Braden-Hallett I would probably do the same as you, have a photoshop file set up, and turn on/off layers to talk about the process. I would very much like to share if the event is not happening in the middle of the night in my time zone (I think I am 7 hours ahead of EST time zone ) πŸ™‚

                                            Talking about show casing process, I just want to share this:

                                            Daniel Miyares is an artist I have been following for a while. He inspired me to pick up Sumie brush for painting. I did a bunch of ink wash painting for last inktober, and I looked his sketches carefully, and always wanted to see him live painting. Now he started a youtube channel, showing exactly that :-).
