Drawing in Charcoal Live Demonstration

[@aingealblue3035]

I LOVE the creature art teacher courses - so many great courses to choose from! I became a member and it is so worth it - always finding courses I'm interested in and I really like them (plus improving my artwork too). 😁👍🏻

[@sueb1676]

I love that Aaron is left-handed. For some reason it makes a difference when trying to emulate.

[@frydsaman6857]

Fascinating to just listen to mr. blaise answer the questions and occasionally tune into the video to see how the image has transformed

[@catherinefranks2146]

This guy does all the things I've heard other artists say "DONT DO THAT" about (mechanical sharpening, finger-blending, touching the paper, blowing the dust off with your breath, not working from the shoulder, etc.)....but it still looks amazing.

[@soybasedjeremy3653]

Aaron is old school and worked for Disney.

[@LearnerChess]

And for good reason. I can't believe he made that awesome drawing on newsprint instead of archival Bristol vellum.

[@karenpowell2384]

Thank you. Great step by step instruction. Really helped me to get an accurate sketch. I had a wonderful result for the final picture.

[@girlbonsai]

Thank You so much. So Amazing! I just started trying to teach myself to draw. I look to the internet to also help. Sometimes I lose faith in myself. You’re advise helps tremendously. Thank You So Much.

[@cindymunro8584]

Just going to try charcoal art, thank you for this tutorial, You’ve helped me to relax about it, you are truly amazing.

[@kls9710]

i am so glad to find this video. Wonderful visual and great advice. i used to live in Burbank CA across the street from Wolfgang "Wolfie" Reitherman. Good times.

[@azalea1404]

That was a lot of fun to watch. And I learned a lot. Thanks, Aaron and Dustin. 👍🌞😊

[@tjrollinthedough102]

I'm so glad l saw this video!!! I loved all the practical advice you gave. Especially since l feel the same way. 😂 I'm glad you mentioned Don Bluth and the Secret of Nihm. I loved the artwork in it too. I'm always impressed with an artist humble enough to appreciate other artists!! Thanks for this delightful video ❤❤❤❤❤

[@dianebrown6429]

I loved this. Because of head injury after my accident I have had a difficult time at drawing again. Thank you for that Light Bulb moment🤗!

[@Shome2049]

I am literally sinking in your art as the video progress

[@zoridahall4732]

The dollar store ,sales excellent newspaper pads,a it's so awesome to skecth and charcoal, especially if you're a beginner at drawing,excellent tutorial, your voice is awesome, most definitely an excellent instructor,,,love it ,I'm hooked, 😊 Zoe

[@suziealt6842]

Yay, you're left-handed! That's really helpful . Thank you. 👍

[@999landlord]

Wow, your work is amazing. i watched the whole video and learn alot. thank you very much. at first I thought it was so difficult to draw that picture then after I saw your technical, it is easier. I got the process. Again, thank you for your work. have a nice day.

[@Kidicaruslover]

I hope you publish a book too. I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

[@hannahosso7435]

Comeeeee tooooo Scotlanddddd, my whole animation class would definitely come to any lecture you do

[@billypeek7186]

i like Aaron..great artist and seams like a really good dude..hope to have an original on my wall someday...

[@adventour167]

Welcome to the Philippines! I think it's not yet too late for me to learn drawing especially charcoal technique. Thanks for sharing this. In the future I may use coconut charcoal from our coconut farm. You're right, the generation today have a quick access on almost everything....in my days, pencil is expensive to buy.

[@EllaPesonenArt]

Oh wow, interesting way to do toning! I will have to give that technique a try. The drawing looks great!

[@FearTheStyle]

I just copied this and it looks amazing on paper. Thanks for this video, for my very first charcoal drawing it was a pleasure copying your style.

[@firesfirestorm6374]

Amazing, I'm going to try this. You're a great inspiration to my art. I thank you.

[@tonyfitzpatrick4756]

Awesome......also loved the reference to the voice recognition skit in Burnistoun. It’s hilarious and anyone searching on the word ‘eleven’ and voice recognition skit will be well rewarded. Greetings from Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ellydollard]

Your work is amazing. When I was young I could pick up just about anything and draw it, however, now I cannot seem to draw at all.

[@KERTJEDA]

Oh!..amazing the Drawing!

[@mythdusterds]

I would like to see a how to make one of those sticks as a tutorial and how to make them smaller equivalent if you are drawing with a Printer size paper or 11 by 17 size piece of paper.

[@eaglesquest7532]

Thanks, very cool to watch and learn.

[@AvtarSingh-ey1my]

Absolutely amazing work 👍

[@harsha_fine_arts]

Awesome drawing ❤❤👍👍 thanks for step by step tutorial . I start learning your introduction . Thanks for all.🙂

[@fredrickodhiambo5526]

Thanks Aaron for your Live Demonstrations I am watching You from Kenya.....when are you coming to Kenya/ Maasai Mara?

[@joshuaday914]

Excellent video and channel, Aaron! The new microphone is great, but it just needs to be dialed back a bit at the mixer/audio interface. It's clipping.

[@TTundragrizzly]

If I had a dollar for everytime that guy in the background says, "animated character", I could afford a nice studio like this.

[@AJzilllaPro]

Lol

[@mythdusterds]

I did not know that Disney decided on different mediums in each film. I always thought that Disney used ink on the cells unless they were backgrounds.

[@mythdusterds]

I have never seen a pole with a sock attached to help you draw over the drawing so you can rest a hand over the art. I like that more than putting a paper over the art so that you prevent blurring or so that you can see the rest of the art while drawing.

[@carlpen850]

@ mythdusterds... where have you been ? that "pole with a sock attached" is called a Mahl Stick and has been in use for at least the last 500+ years and is mainly used by painters... oh what's the use, google it and learn something...

[@adityawankhede7260]

Those watercolor sketches are so fricking good!

[@spiritualstars]

This guy is so superior. “Yes that’s what I’m talking about..”

[@jaimee.campuzanot.2702]

Muchas gracias Sr. Blaise, increible!!!!!

[@raquibahmed3353]

How do you fix charcoal work. It is very loose. Also do you often fix and go for next layer? Raquib, Bangladesh

روعه إبداع رسم جميل أحسنت ❤❤❤❤❤🎉

[@mmodarres]

Great session Aaron! The dog sculpted by Steve Lord!

[@vandanashirur529]

I am new to this technique, how can you give so CLEAN highlight, I have a kneaded eraser but cannot do such clean work ( no doubt you are v v senior and experienced). It will be a great help. Thank you

[@Kyomiibrown]

Because he used VINE/WILLOW charcoal for his original sketch. It erases easily compared to compressed charcoal.

[@donnamiller5215]

Hello From Grand Rapids MN. Never have used this medium, but courious ! why i clicked on the notice! ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////thanks for sharing!

[@dougg1075]

I notice your hand starts rocking before the pencil touches the paper and you never do a single stroke line. Should all lines be a series of small strokes?

[@pradaxina]

thnk you so much for this video.

[@UmbuAwang]

great painting...indonesian here...

[@MaZEEZaM]

@Aaron Blaise, given you draw every day, how do you find what you want to draw? the biggest issue I have is always knowing what to draw.

[@wendybercande]

Good drawing

[@thesultanmerchant]

how do you achieve proportion of lion?

[@PattyPixels-Velez]

Can you show us your technique to draw a crumpled paper?

[@preyfox7191]

Hi big fan. My question is your art desk you got from Disney I love it is there a way to make your own or do you have plains that we can see love to know thanks

[@AaronBlaiseArt]

They are pretty complicated. Not any plans out there that I know of but you will occasionally see the real ones for sale on eBay

[@MaZEEZaM]

I previously tried buying a few different kneading erasers but I found they were always way to firm and fixed in shape to actually knead 😰 can anyone recommend a good one that’s available in Australia?

[@lunavanbecke824]

WOW

[@sianeebam]

Has anyone any advice for drawing animals live....they just wont stay still! I recently went to the zoo fully intent on coming home with a sketch book full...it is not full!

[@flipletape9706]

[@joannegee1650]

Now that I found you - I have request(s) - can you do a You Tube tutorial on painting in acrylic - the lion like here? You would be surprised at the amount of videos that can be found in fast motion which are completely useless to me as they are just for show and not for any kind of useful instruction as far as I concerned - a complete waste of time. I have found only one demo on painting a lion in acrylic that I can actually follow but it lasts only about 12 minutes or so.
