It looks so fluffy 💜 Yep values are the most important thing with most art (obvs there are a few styles where it's not that important)

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

Thankyou 😊 Yes values are really important, especially for realism!

I must say you are doing a really good job with your channel. I've used the Mars Lumograph pencils, but I couldn't get them to be smoth with blending. I like that they are so dark, but because of the visuall texture they leave I stopped using them.

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

Thankyou 😊 Yeah it is a bit grainier, but it also depends on the surface you're using as well (and also how sharp your pencil is) Personally, I don't mind too much because I judge what my work looks like from a meter or two away and I dont notice that texture I tend to prioritise contrast/values over the graininess 😊 But I'm sure it would definitely annoy some people that like to have a smoother result 😊

[@Morticia147]

@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt Yeah, I'm a bit of a nutcase when it comes to smoothness :O) I need my stuff to be superealistic from 5cm away..... You will always annoy someone, no matter what you do - so don't bother :O)

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

Haha exactly! It took me too long to realise that! I used to spend way too long on artwork and got bored with the fine details until I realised it didn't have to be that way! 😊

[@paulkirkwood7209]

Brilliant

Instead of using a blending stump on the background, you used something on a blue handle. What is it and where can it be purchased please? Thanks

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

It's a Sofft tool (usually used for Pan Pastels) You can get them from many art stores who sell Pan Pastels (depends on your country) But this is the link to the tool from a store in the UK who shop worldwide www.jacksonsart.com/en-au/search/?q=sofft%2Btools&___store=jacksonsart_au&acc=07a96b1f61097ccb54be14d6a47439b0

[@sushiegirl]

What is the spatula you’re using to blend the back ground? I need one of those 😊

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

It's a Sofft tool (they're usually used for Pan Pastels) that I'm applying my graphite powder with in the backround 😊 www.jacksonsart.com/en-au/search/?q=sofft%2Btools&___store=jacksonsart_au&acc=07a96b1f61097ccb54be14d6a47439b0

Can we use the same technique with charcoal?

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

Yes, I do it quite often with charcoal 😊

[@iwillbetrue2023]

@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt thanks.. a question : charcol when sharpned leaves dust. Any tips on how not to? I use derwent charcol pencils.

What is the sheet you're using to guard the paper from your hand? 👀

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

It's glassine or tracing paper (you could use any paper though, I just like the glassine because it's see-through) 😊

[@maggiemay7401]

I need to find some of this! 😶 Thank you so much for answering & for an amazing video!

[@cup1ss]

me: has all the supplies needed. Uses paint brush, my opinion: i NEED A BETTER BRUSH!

[@KirstyRebeccaFineArt]

Haha as long as it's soft, it will work 😊
