@Inthehandsoflando is one of the most friendly TikTok accounts for beginner artists. In his spliced ArtTok videos, he shows the process of drawing random, simple things using only a mechanical pencil. He’s known for his art series like “simple things to draw when bored” and other “how-to” type of videos.

Tamara’s contents on Tiktok are very specific and beginner-friendly as she tries to cover all the basics. Her videos usually have titles on video covers which helps viewers determine the topic discussed. She draws and paints at the same time. Her bio claims that she does that not only teach, but also helps viewers to de-stress. Seems like a one-stop shop to me.

Noah’s ArtTok videos are more likely to show how to do abstract paintings. Starting with a clean canvas, he layers different colors of acrylic paint and spreads them according to his liking with different tools such as palette knives or a simple yarn. /VT
