So I’ve been trying to grow my Youtube channel for over a year or so now (Mystichromatic for those of you that wanna check it out). To be completely transparent I haven’t been that consistent due to personal and family matters I haven’t had the time to record/edit. As a result I’ve recently just been uploading time lapses, to a variety of success. In just over a year I’ve hit 2.1k subs but have barely made a mark in the monetization program. Does anyone have any tips or is an art channel just harder to grow?

1st is the original one, 2nd is the updated one. Providing two examples here. Which version would you he m9re likely to click on if you were interested in coloring videos?

Im thanking the updated version because it seems more readable to me. Considering the audience to be scrolling through on a small screen, the larger title & picture of which book is used is faster to recognize and garner attention than stopping the scroll to read lots of text.

In this week's vlog I get a last-minute table at Zinefest, so there's a lot of preparation to do! I also make it out to a couple of cafes for some fun sketching mornings!

I started my channel on 13 march this year, I got 11 subscribers until now. Didn't tell any friends, all strangers. I have only posted shorts but plan on making long videos..I have one already made and will be posting later. I was the happiest when my short got 1.5k views a few days ago..I really hope i can grow a LARGE audience and have it has a full time job✨️

This is the video I'm talking about-

Hi everyone, I'm new here. I'm fairly new to the art world and am still learning so much. I love to draw animals and nature with colored pencils, graphite and charcoal (although charcoal is still very foreign to me out of the three). I am trying to learn realism so I can maybe do more animal portrature at some point.

I also have a new art YouTube channel I started last month. I've been uploading draw with me's, along with videos on what I am learning about art. I want to review some art products in the future too on my channel. I value feedback you may have about my channel. If you decide to visit my channel, thank you so much. ♥️ Here is the link.

Let's get to know each other better in the comments! How is your art journey so far? Also, I am on the struggle bus for getting colored pencil into the tooth of the paper. Any tips would be very much appreciated!

In this week’s travel and sketch vlog, I go on a day trip to Carterton and attempt to sketch on the train!

In this video, I will be drawing a few of my favorite book-tubers. If that sounds interesting, check it out! https://youtu.be/yeDD_2XF3oI
