Ever wondered about being a children’s book illustrator? This week we show the raw uncut process on how to draw something absolutely beautiful

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share something different from the usual timelapse or hyper-edited “1-minute drawing” videos you see everywhere.

This is a full real-time drawing of The Little Cosmonaut, made entirely on a Wacom tablet, no fast cuts or speedups — just the honest process of concept art from start to finish.

I know most of what we see online skips the actual grind, but I wanted to show what professional illustration really takes: focus, patience, and a bit of chaos along the way.

If you’ve ever wondered how long it actually takes to draw something from scratch this one’s for you.

Also curious to hear from other artists: Do you think more creators should post their process in real time instead of timelapses? Or do viewers just not have the patience for it anymore?
