Brief

Tim Tries to Draw Things — Day 1 is a live-streamed drawing session from the Wait But Why channel (published March 10, 2026) where Tim works on illustrations for his book due this fall. The video is part of a multi-day series (Day 1–3) with several numbered parts and candid commentary about the difficulty of drawing.

Why it matters

Illustrations are being created for Tim's book, which is scheduled to be released in the fall of 2026.

Key details

  • Tim ran multi-part live drawing streams over three days; Day 1 has two parts (YouTube IDs xReaOH7-LPI and qKMQtUsE1qc), Day 2 has three parts, and Day 3 has two parts.
  • The Day 1 video (Part 2) was published on March 10, 2026 on the Wait But Why YouTube channel and emphasizes that "drawing is hard."
