one line drawing

[TheSlipperySwag]

one line drawings remind me of raw creativity, nothing is perfect but everything is unique, awesome job

[m0jeezy13]

the raven?

[sassy7711]

i hate one line drawings but my art teacher is making me do this :|

[iiRapezz]

EPIC

[TheBeastOfTheEast54]

what exactly did you "sketch"?

[PenguinShortFilms]

i love it, it looks awesome. id try it.. but id fail

[sparkingboy200]

man.....

you've got an A in arts for shzre

[Selaaphiel]

first i was like :O!, but then i was like >:|

its not even anything. a 2 year old can draw random shit and not lift up the pencil.

[awesomeness0192]

its like an etch a sketch. i'm gonna try to get my art teacher to make this one of our projects this year. a one line sketch where the lines dont cross. :)

[cheekychen]

@awesomeness0192 that's pretty awesome! I'd love to see the results if you do the project.

[awsmfaceproductions]

Did you speed the clip up?

[rockosMO]

artists are simply pussys that will or need to be fucked its like there are two genders of the mind those who are strong and fuck those who are not and in turn get fucked.

[worldbmx]

cool you have skillz to draw without lift the pen :O

[ronoskatealfaz]

thats pretty shit, im not gonna lie...

[cheekychen]

thanks for your honesty

[rebelselma]

Wonderfull drawing! Can anybody tell me what the name is from that piano solo? Thx a lot!

[Piggieelaydee]

i tried to do one line drawing.

my pen ran out of ink

:(

[Kabukita]

lol

[TheLionCowardly]

So kinda like an etch a sketch?

{I mean that in a non rude way ,by the way}

[Raiown]

it has a cool organic, electronic look to it

[cheekychen]

thanks. nice description :]

[Raiown]

I just like the flow of the lines

[janiebanie123]

love it!

[titano2006]

i really like the drawing but for some reason i dont understand what it is suppost to be :P could anyone tell me what it is? i thought it was a tree at the start but then i got confused xD

good job by the way ;)

[cheekychen]

thanks. it's not supposed to be anything. I do take a lot of inspiration from nature and organic form, but this only aims to be a long line that doesn't cross itself.

[Ziggystarla]

i like you =]]

[crosstrack6]

very nice, and well thought out, leaving yourself gaps to escape through and you got pretty good precision in retracing your lines for the shadow/tree/whatthefuckamidraw­ing effect.

thumbs up

[iTariroKiDD]

i tried this at school :D

[paulorpauly]

the music fits it very well.

hi paul.

[leilabennight33]

I do this a lot, but I use those fancy old school color pencils that have 5 different colors in the lead! You should try it sometime, it turns out really pretty!

[oberones]

Do you suffer from any psychotic,schizophrenic or any other psych condition. I know you may retort with anger or attack my comment. I am concerned you do dispaly some psych/soc condition...made manifest in your method and your comments to others?

[cheekychen]

On what grounds are you basing your analysis? And which comments are you referring to?

I'm flattered that you're concerned.

[ShootingStarP]

Lol.

Hi its chris by the way.

(Animationking101) if you remember me lol

[Teiraki]

is see an entrance with a tree that grew next to it lol ^__^

[euphonium666pally]

it looks like a HUGE maze good work i know i sure as hell couldnt do that :P

[Pokezoink101]

its not 1 line but it is a good picture ☺

good job

[cheekychen]

actually it is,

thanks

[IntercomTwinkie]

I think it's awesome!

[pcm4gic]

it's like the pipes screensaver

[necroslikerock]

Cool and Crazy Lol ^_^

[Occk]

You know what I think that would be a wicked maze I mean look at all those curves.

[XGCRicochet]

the thing with art is it dosent have to look like something.. its really emotions sometimes you just have to look a little harder to find what it means or inthis case he likes to draw and had no ideas haha :p

[wtf12292]

um........? wtf

[cheekychen]

exactly.

[DNAugust]

it might just be me but have no ide what that was supposed to be

[cheekychen]

it's not just you. to me it's a really long line. but I enjoyed doing it.

[pro3d]

what do u do if ur pen runs out :P

[cheekychen]

lol.

I deal with it and use a different pen :D

[TwoTube2]

Reminds me of etchasketch drawings :) That is essentially automatic drawing isn't it? A Surrealist technique. I like it. By the way you are a cool person, when I watch you create art it inspires me to do the same. I love your style as well, very distinctive. I wish you success, I'm off to do a year of Foundation Art now! Cheers! :)

[VENOMOUSTESTAMENT]

I LIKE THAT! its a tree inside of our computers... wires and all that.

i should try that. i usually start in a corner doing curly-cues with a bunch of different colores and it makes something totally janis-joplin-era-ish.

wish you had a myspace so you could see them! :D

thanks for sharing, and for the inspiration especially! :}

[jimmyohdez]

what is it?? or is it not done yet??

[cheekychen]

it's whatever you want it to be.

It's just a drawing exercise inspired by organic form :)

[billiondollarbabi]

I do this allll the time when I'm bored or if Ineed idea's!

I also invented "scribble drawings" my books are full of them... qute fun :D

This great as usual!!! x :D

[cheekychen]

awesome! you should add some to Tailcast! :))

[4MacReal]

wow... this is amazing.

how long do you take for this picture?

[cheekychen]

umm, I think about 20/30 minutes.. thank you very much!

feel free to check out some of my other work over on tailcast.. there's a link on my channel :)

[h2starfrog]

coolie

[Lovro2]

looks unfinished...

[cheekychen]

maybe it is :D

[pixiejohn]

you win.

[kieghacat]

at the beginning i thought u were drawing a cliff or something... then I thought u were drawing the hair to someones portrait.... then it looked like a tree... and at the end it looked like a bizaare way of drawing streets...

lol i have such a wacky eye

[cheekychen]

i like your explaination! thanks :))

[jamster003]

wow lol i saw a tree xD

[mrbuttercake]

wow you wouldn't believe the surreal things I see in your drawing. Incredible

[cheekychen]

:)

do tell..

[thanks]

[denmcop]

the lines are almost pefect in sync! amazing, awesome

[cheekychen]

thanks a lot denmcop. so pleased you enjoyed it!

[TribalStudios18]

wow you are truly amazing!

[cheekychen]

I'm pleased you liked it! cheers mate :)

[Ashlee2e]

that was awesome.

was it with a pen, or what?

[cheekychen]

thanks Ashlee! yes indeed, it was a pigment liner.. but a biro or pencil will do :)

[Ashlee2e]

okay(:

[NE1flyer]

That was quite pointless. You owe me 2 minutes of my life back.

[cheekychen]

oops, just wasted another minute

[robyn2288]

lmao! great reply. I like it though. Usually my one line drawings are scraps as well

[SirChipmunk]

i agree with previous posters, this sure does look like Hetch-a-sketch Art, Damn those stupid plasic squares, the only thing i ever tried to draw on them were circles lmao

[CaineVarge]

This id definitely what pushing the orange button of happiness is all about.I now see one simple click was one of my best decisions as a youtuber. :]

[cheekychen]

thank you very much!!

cheers :)

[BestJaxx]

Redo this for the TubeArt contest.

[cheekychen]

cheers captain!

[BilliLovesMargot]

that's pretty sick homie!

[cheekychen]

Safe Bill!

[cutekat0012345]

i dont know what it is

[cheekychen]

it's a drawing... it's not meant to be anything. Inspired by organic form, but just an exercise.

[shimmishim]

awesome! and subscribed. :)

[cheekychen]

Thank you very much!!!

welcome welcome!! :)

[Reality2Insomnia]

That's incredible man! I've never seen anything like that before.

And I loved the music!

Cheers!!

[cheekychen]

deep, man.

[andy55055]

you're starting to get it. now how does it relate to your 'drawing'?

[cheekychen]

are you saying it's irrelevant? or are you typing what it makes you feel? you tell me

[MBRHIndustries]

Sweet line dude.

[cheekychen]

lol, thanks a lot MBR!

[eaglecrowowl]

thanks for the leopard warning. I am sorry you are dealing with that. :( I have drawing things I do too when, like you said, inspiration is low, or when energy is low, so I enjoyed watching this. :)

[cheekychen]

no worries eagle, what drawing exercises do you do? pleased you liked it :)

[Ick69]

Cooool.  I like the music as well.

[cheekychen]

Ah cheer Eric! glad you liked it!

[Jicknsherry]

[omgmhazzrocks]

[cheekychen]

[MyDaRkRoMaNcE777]

[cheekychen]

[joefileman]

Very artsy and contemplative. Good video!

[cheekychen]

Thanks joe!

[officerRocelot]

aces paul

[cheekychen]

Cheers Alan!

[nicholasandre]

lol this is awseome! but .....what is it?

[cheekychen]

hey nicholas.. It's not really anything in particular, just a tribute to organic form I guess.

[cheezit83]

that was nice. hahahaaa...youtube made me type in "mutblik" before i could leave this comment. just thought i'd share that.

[cheekychen]

lol.. thanks cheezit :)

[uncreativebutt]

what did you use to edit with?

[cheekychen]

imovie... doesn't it say that in the description?!

[october231]

g a y

[cheekychen]

totally

[DAVETYIOP]

Compatibility can be a drag when you put different computer programs together. Great drawing by the way! That certainly didn't have any problems with compiling together!

[cheekychen]

Thanks DAVE!

[tammpon]

Awesome job bro as I have done several one lined drawings in my day, but never as huge as this! I was just only disapointed to not see it finnished! Im hoping that you do! Take care and keep up the work that inspires us all!

peaceouTy!

TAMMpON

[cheekychen]

Hey tammpon! thanks a lot man, sorry I didn't display the finished thing, trouble getting to grips with imove.. I'll try and do it for the next one,

Peas :)

[SakanoueAyame]

Wow that is just incredible, I can't believe you manage to keep your lines so even, it looks like it should have taken you ages hehe... beautiful as always ^_^

[cheekychen]

Ah thanks Sakanoue :)

[happydudeco]

cool

[cheekychen]

thanks!

[mymoosejaw]

Love 1 line drawings. I have never been able to do it myself though :( I can't seem to plan ahead far enough, and get stuck...

[cheekychen]

It doesn't matter if the lines cross, depends what you wanna do I guess... cheers :)

[sidewalkchalkvission]

awesome

[cheekychen]

thanks dude!

[porolita22]

Very cool... Imagination can fly fly high with something like this! :-D Oh and btw I had the same problem with my Leopard Upgrade and the new iMovie is so weird and has less video effects so it kinda sucks :'( but it has other cool stuff too I guess... I still miss the old one though LOL

[cheekychen]

Hey Pao! Why do they make things so tricky eh?! ah well :)

[daligoddess2006]

Inspiring. =D

[cheekychen]

Thanks daligoddess :)))

[marmosetguru]

this is beautiful

[cheekychen]

Thanks marmoset :)

[spireate]

filtered through my memories it reminds me of etch-a-sketch

[cheekychen]

you're so right! haha, it's going in the tags!

[thecolclough]

nice.  odd, but nice 8]

- colclough

[cheekychen]

Thanks colclough!

[channeIreview]

i am impressed! i wish i could draw like that.

[cheekychen]

Ah thanks dude!

[channeIreview]

seriously, i'm sure a lot of folks have no appreciation of just how difficutlt it is to draw one line.

[cheekychen]

Or.. how easy it is? Other than getting a bit of cramp, anyone can do it! I didn't like this til I saw it thru all you guys' eyes. YT rocks. lol. cheers buddy

[getonit123]

Oh and you use a MAC? So do I :-) I've heard the same thing re: Leopard; that is why I still use Tiger (and I only purchased my MAC a year ago!)

x, Daniel

[cheekychen]

Yeah man, it's a bugger. I'd say stick with tiger!

[JuicyOrange]

Reminded me and an etch-a-sketch, only better.

[cheekychen]

Hey Juicy! a few people said that! Maybe I should rename the video, of put it in the tags! Thanks :)

[JuicyOrange]

No prob! I totally didn't notice that. This vid is getting so many comments!

[cheekychen]

It's because I have the bestest subscribers in zee land! :))))

Take it easy!

[getonit123]

great sense of line, Paul! and is that Erik Satie... the background music.. ? if it is, you da' bomb.

Daniel

[cheekychen]

Hey Daniel! I don't know a great deal about the pianist, but it was Gonzales.. I hope you're good mate!

[getonit123]

It's Satie; you're awesome.

[cheekychen]

oh, ok.. lol! you're too cultured for my own good! haha, thanks Daniel :)

[AffairWthGravity]

Wonderful darling!!!

[cheekychen]

Thank Katelyn :)

[raconter1]

If I should ever attempt something like that, I'm sure I'd do the equivalent of painting myself into a corner..then I would declare the drawing done! LOL Nice, Paul! Jack

[cheekychen]

lol.. it does happen! haha, cheers Jack, hope you're good buddy.

[dogpatchdebbie]

cool:) I don't know if I would have the patience for that,lol:)

[cheekychen]

Hey Debs! I'm sure you would! go on.. have a try! :))

[duanemyers]

Pretty cool mate! :)

[cheekychen]

thanks duane :)

[meowmixX23]

umm...u rock. that is all.

:)

[cheekychen]

ah thanks Sami! you do too hun :)

[matthewdryden]

A friend of mine does some great art in that style--with the lines and stuff.

[cheekychen]

Cool! Nice one Matthew.. is your friend on yt?

[anmoose]

Fascinating! I imagine that drawing like that, never lifting the pen, can be a very challenging exercise.

Moosie

[cheekychen]

Hey Moosie, I'm pleased you found it interesting.. The main challenge is usually to overcome cramps.. lol :)

[omniscientmoon77]

Cool. :o)
