Landscapes are uncommon subjects for realistic pencil drawings (they're normally painted instead) but that's precisely what makes your works stand out. These are excellent. It'd be nice to see you do more.

[@user-lw1lq7st5b]

I love graphite drawings, and these are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

[@itzjustjaz7263]

Trees, shrubs and grasses are growing literally during the whole process. Incridible.!

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Yes it is) Thank you.

[@jamesaritchie1]

Yeah, just like a million others. Only some of those others actually teach beginners, rather than just showing off their own skills.

[@zachalicea1987]

@jamesaritchie1 is there a channel you could recommend to follow on KZbin for such instruction?

[@chumdinger_official]

Crazy thing is... my eye considered this done at the 5:00 minute mark..... awesome work.

[@ashishawasthi4350]

The set up you chose was divine... With each stroke I was slipping into some kind of trance..your work is truly inspiring.

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Many thanks, I'm pleased that you like my drawing.

[@puliukonpronssi3429]

It looks legit like a photograph

[@sebastienfoissier9722]

As usual, a beautiful drawing but this time in 4K! Thank you for this high-definition video. The lighting is really better too and I'm sure all your fans will appreciate it. It is very useful to see all the details of your drawing techniques. Your landscape drawings remembers us the greatest russians painters of the 19th century. I watch your videos in slow motion, I try to copy the way you do and I improve my skills for sure. And for that, you deserve all my gratitude. Thank you so much !

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Please and thank you very much for such pleasant words. I'm very pleased to know that my videos help you. 8)

Love art especially when it's landscape so many possibilities with pencil and paper and most importantly brain

[@brianf5359]

You have developed an excellent technique. Your rendering of depth and atmosphere is really accomplished.

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Thank you so much for such a huge compliment! 😊

[@tbw6652]

Now I can draw any tree. You have done it. I too am an artist at last.

[@samuelbird7151]

[@rafaelpaixao2]

What type of pencil do u use that lightens the drawing instead of darkening then with graphite

[@flatyos6724]

Very nice scenery. you draw it very well .I like it very much . great work of art . Ossum

[@dagrosafinearts]

Really great work! I am an artist who preferably loves working with pencil myself. It is amazing what one can create with just a few pencils and eraser.

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Thank you so much. Yes, it is possible to draw with a pencil anything, except the color image...

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

You have very beautiful drawings.

[@dagrosafinearts]

Thank you!

[@MusicBySand]

I do graphite drawings too, portraits and landscapes. More portraits now though. I love seeing how real I can get them with just pencils, erasers and some blending stumps. I'm always amazed. You both have some great drawings. Thank you for sharing. Check out some of mine if you want :) facebook.com/RichardsFineArt/

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Thank you. I watched your video and the page on facebook. I really liked your drawings, especially the portrait of Jack Nicholson and the landscape with the road and the fence.

You Sir have an awesome imagination! Would love to see a video of your technique in normal speed.

[@robertjwilliams3532]

Your post is right on. Trying to "tell" what he is doing is near or is impossible. His use of eraser or shading stump are portrayed so fast I can't see the progression or which is which.

[@DavidBrocekArt]

5:50 - I genuinely thought you are about to finish, then I looked at the video timer and was like "whaaaaat?"

[@svendbosanvovski4241]

Wonderful, Sergey. I have the impression you have drawn that scene many times from memory. Your attention to detail is astonishing. No photograph could emulate this. A photo is nothing more than trapped light. You successfully fuse your personality with an observed place or remembered experience. You have objectified a part of yourself for all time. Can you tell what pencils you have employed for this, please?

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Thank you very much Svend. Usually I drawing the places where I would like to be, but almost always it turns out differently, not what I imagined. Working out the details is not as difficult as it might seem. Here is a list of everything that I used in drawing this landscape : CANSON 1557 Croquis 120g/m2 A4 KOH-I-NOOR HARDTMUTH 1500 (2B; 3B; H) Faber-Castell CASTELL 9000 (3B) Faber-Castell Perfection 7056 KOH-I-NOOR COMBINED ERASER 6541/60 Blending stumps and usual cotton wool

Hi thanks for sharing the work process of such amazing art. I'm sorry for the silly question (I'm a complete beginner) but what pen/pencil did you use for the highlight part of the trees? Thanks.

[@snehangshuchakraborty1458]

probably 2B

[@gjassawalla]

hi can you mention what brand are u using...

[@misssusisweetheartrose883]

Very relaxing to watch you draw this. May I ask what kind of paper do you use and pencils please? Seemed like you only used three pencils.

Very beautiful demo! I have a question. Do you use a white pencil? I saw you used paper pencil and sketch pencil. Thank you so much!

[@dimpol1969]

amazing!!! what softeness of pencils yor are using? 2B or higher?thank you

[@SergeyLebedevArt]

Please and thanks. I use: 2B; 3B; 4B; and H

[@43En]

Actually it depends on how dark he want the color to be, the most standard is 2b its soft and its medium darkness, great for landscapes and etud (still life) For example he used the 4b to add some extra volume on the trees. It just rly depends on how far or close u want the subject to be (far=darker, close=lighter) great landscape btw I am surprised how u draw without touching the paper I usually blush a lot xD

[@venson79]

I have enjoyed your videos very much and learned from them. Can i ask what paper you use? And do you use an eraser pencil or white charcoal pencil when you lighten an area? Thank you.

[@sohini_00]

Ya...I also have the same question ⁉️

[@Jayakumarsphotos]

Amazing

[@CoolStuff14205]

Bro....the sketch was awesome .....I have one doubt..wat was the white pencil u r using ( not blending stumps)

[@alancrabtree2006]

How To?? Great Artwork (that I saw from start to finish) at a million miles an hour! Sadly, the only thing I learnt from watching was, the tools of the trade in his hand change seemingly every time you blink! The music also didn't seem to teach me "How To Draw a Landscape with Trees and a Small River" Go figure?! Again - The Artwork is Incredible, I'm just saying a "How To" video needs Narration so that us Beginners/Students of Art can actually Learn "How To"

[@CCC0122]

Does anyone know the paper choice?
