=== Shorts ===
Smyth was created on June 21, 2021. The first video was a short named "10 hours in 8 seconds" which was posted on October 13, 2021, and was originally a TikTok video. Hence the title and the increased video speed, Smith sped up the video to show the artwork he created in 10 hours in real life, be done in 8 seconds. More shorts would be posted to show art that took hours to make, be made in seconds due to them being sped up. Additional shorts feature coloring, his art before and now, showing how detailed his art gets, and just drawing art in general.

===== Background =====
On July 13, 2024, MrBeast posted "50 YouTubers Fight for $1,000,000" in which 50 of the biggest YouTubers in the world are put through challenges to see which one survives the longest inside a cube-like structure. The winner of the competition will have $1 Million to be put for their subscribers. In the end, it was Jaiden (JaidenAnimations) who would win the $1 Million. When MrBeast asked her how she would plan to give the money away to her subscribers, she said, "It's hard for a lot of artists out there" and "I'd really like to send a lot of them to art school."

Smith posted a video later on the day of July 13, 2024, as a message to Jaiden. He went on to congratulate her win in the MrBeast video previously mentioned, and as he talks about himself, showcases some of his art. He has also expressed his interest in wanting to go to art school and become a professional artist and knows that his video may not be noticed by other artists who want that same dream.

The video has continued attracting attention and currently has over 1 million views.
