[@mushmore6965]

@@bucketheadfacts3501 I mean he didn’t necessarily have to say it, but it’s a fact that every accomplished artist need to practice and practice to have their works so flawless!

[@jerryaubill163]

Awesome. Please do more dark skin. Thank you!

[@MelissaH710]

Absolutely stunning! You make it look so easy, but I know from personal experience it takes a LOT of practice to get to your level and make it look effortless. Truly incredible to watch. This drawing reminds me a bit of the character Shakäste from Critical Role. Very nice work!

[@gerritkoelewijn7559]

It's stunning and so relaxing to watch. Absolutely magic and one of your masterpieces.

[@Drawing-Life]

This is awesome, so painterly - beautifully done. I really love this channel and seeing your work and your process, so inspiring! :)

It's totally maddddddd 😍..loved that confidence in strokes...rhythm in lines , movement ...perfect balance yaa... Truly best wishes to you Artist 😊💐🌸🦋!!

[@Savanahrose1956]

I love that you actually want to produce art. Your work is stunning. I don't get much out of hyper realism. To me if I wanted a photo I'd use my camera. But real art allows the viewers brain to take over. Bravo !

[@joanfilbert9699]

I agree!

First of all I am your biggest fan I learned so much from you with that being said can you please do a self-portrait I would love to see how you would go about that

[@susanbell7071]

Great!!!!! That was fun. What type of paper do you use?

[@karenfox9982]

Beautiful work...❤

[@JennWatson]

I’m new here and not even an artist but it seemed like magic watching you effortlessly coax that man’s face out of the blank canvas with a relaxed and casual hand that new exactly where to put every single stroke! Bravo!!! 👏🏽 🎉

Crazy fab.

Wow, I’d love to buy this off you for my home! Is that a possibility??

Could have stopped right there!

[@brendabrushart]

Are you using a sketch paper or what do you like to use for these kind of sketches? Your work is amazing! I just found you on KZbin and I’m enjoying your work and videos a lot!

[@scchawla2507]

John this is very interesting... I would request for more.... I see that you have a practiced hand so you go by proportions and placement in a manner of sort of scribbling with charcoal... And soft pastels in here.. Would you mind explaining the length of charcoal or soft pastels that you use... Creation of angles etc in some tutorial? By the way, this calls for a series... Maybe you could even go to various kinds of skins with modifications..

[@renzo6490]

Can we not see your reference photo or your model.... as you see him?

[@persioboni9373]

Muito bom !

[@bobbyc6006]

I agree really good. I need to practice darker skin 2

Simply awesome work and Thank you for sharing your thought process as your work.

[@WhiteFyre]

Why do you use your hand to blend and not a nice soft brush?

[@limitedlimitation7518]

I stayed focused on the wrong spot I only realize it when I saw the perfect face of an old man. Wow you're amazing☺️ Keep it up💜

[@cassandrar5127]

I always have an easier time doing deeper skintones. More pigment means it's easier for me to tell the values. I also love the reflective quality of deep skintones.

[@julie-j9q]

thank you that was great

Dude, I love your Art so much. Brilliant. Would you take a such a picture from my son?

[@Screamingz1]

A minute and 20 in and the man’s already got a face. What in the world

[@BlankSlate1111]

I don't know what allows your brain to do that but i sure wish mine would allow me to do that. I'm not knowledgable about art but I'm pretty much thinking that art cannot be learned, it's more of a talent. I can barely draw a stick person.

[@AleksandrTravin-sw5ve]
