Best tutorial I've seen on shading. A lot of the videos I've seen are the people just talking about how to shade, and not showing how they actually do it. I'm a visual learner...I need to see it being done. You can talk at my for hours on how to do something, but if I don't see you putting your words into practice, I won't retain one whit of what you were saying. Bravo! love it! And the music is extremely relaxing. Love it.

[@haniimartz7120]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqPGoXWChN1_pck hi😍

[@graceturpin3000]

I do the same , i learn visual than saying it. This video is good!

[@DimarisPlays]

The true color of art is the enjoyment of making it.

[@gaminggyal6262]

DimaSTR awh that's sweet ^W^

[@cuntfuck]

is it possible to hate it ? cause I draw and I'm kinda good at it. like sure I've got potential. the problem is I don't think I ever enjoyed doing it. The only reason I draw is because Im good at it. i absolutely love art but I don't think i love making art. Im majoring in art and I think Im making a mistake.

[@foofoobear66]

G....There is nothing wrong with what you are stating/feeling.....I have been a portrait artist...Painter for over 44 years. And I don't actually enjoy it....I have had this talent since the age of 7, and sold my first paining at that age, for $250....But I can honestly tell you that I absolutely don't enjoy drawing/painting.....Just because I can do it...And it comes so naturally to me, doesn't mean I enjoy it. Wow, you are the fist person I have ever heard who draws, but doesn't enjoy it....You're not alone...Just because you don't enjoy it, does not mean you have to stop....I haven't.....I can draw most things in less than half the time it takes for most to draw. like this 33 minuet forehead, for instance, that would normally take me, with my own technique about 5-10 maximun...I could take a standard #2 Dixon Ticonderoga pencil and a blending tool and come out with some awesome artwork. Yes, use other pencils, such a mechanical pencils if I need o draw thin intricate lines, since I am a professional and they need to be PERFECT.!!!!!.....And have dozens of graphite, charcoal , Rapidograph pens. You name it...I work with oils, acrylics and alkyds....But they are a pain to clean up after.....And is why I prefer portrait drawing. Just wanted you to know that professional artists, don't always enjoy what they do just because they are AMAZING at it.....Good luck to you...Keep it up!!! Peace :-)

Everything with quality takes time because non of us is perfect, and also this would take me a week

[@GameCreatorOfGod]

I draw, its not patience, its the joy of doing something you love, it passes the time so fast. Once you start a drawing to finish you get so transfixed into it your whole world disappears.

[@hobisdimples94]

I was smacking myself on the forehead when I saw you were using a q-tip to blend, that was such a "duh" moment ::D This whole time I've been using my finger, never even thought about that!

[@joycesart4933]

l

[@hobisdimples94]

Haha ::D I LOL'D, anyway, thx for the tip! :) I do have a tendency to be kind of messy when I'm "in the zone" so I might have to look into that

[@animelover3083]

+DingleBungus do you know why he needed the mechanical pencil? why not just file or use sand paper on a pencil?

[@hobisdimples94]

animelover3083 Well I'm guessing it's because a mechanical pencil is consistently the same thickness, whereas a regular pencil has to be constantly sharpened to have a fine point. That's why I use one anyway :)

[@animelover3083]

emi loo ah, ok! thank you.

[@BlackCasillas]

I've lost my motivation to draw for a few months now until I watched your vids. Thank you for igniting my passion. Seeing how patient and relaxed you are made me miss the feeling. God bless :)

Never blend with your fingers! Because it will ruin your drawing causing oils from your hand will smudge all ver

[@BonnyJohnVarkey]

+Keeknasty Thaks for the tip, I used fingers too..

[@OscarMaya212]

This is SO beautifully drawn, calming to watch and I've seen a video from you which was filmed in 2014 and - from my tired little eyes 'laughs' - I can say, I see LOTS of improvement. And what I fucking LOVED was how you SHOWED the pencils you used. Everybody can have those tools at home and with such simple tools you created something so stunning.

When you're actually drawing and the music is start to change your mood and feels you refresh and so relax while calmly draw... Love that kind of music, very relaxing, and it gives me more patience...

[@haniimartz7120]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqPGoXWChN1_pck

[@philgray7320]

Other great blending tools are: Cotton wool balls (for larger areas), and my personal favorite: tissues, as you can fold them into the best shape for shading. Plus, did you know that you can use the Black and Greys from a colour pencil set to produce a black and white drawing? (this is the method I use) as I prefer colour to graphite pencils.

[@razildakat8452]

[@jeanettebarrett3471]

For me, the lesson wasn't so much how to shade realistically. The lesson was the dedication to the drawing. Like many people who have posted, I want to finish my drawings quickly, and they often disappoint me because they aren't as good as I would like them to be. This video has shown me that rushing through anything immediately leads to an inferior product. If it's worth drawing, it should be worth the time and the patience it requires. Thank you for showing me the right way.

[@MissNanGlam]

This is so beautiful if the whole world does just what you're doing here, it would be world peace. Thanks for spreading the beauty and sharing your talent.

Good comment/observation.... Probably the best way to show drawing techniques in real time motion (as opposed to those awful "speed" videos) would be too skip a few minutes here and there (I'm sure that most people did that anyway).

[@KreativeKill]

Wafaa Gosick i can understand that. theres lot of stuff i can only do when im by myself. but to reply to the comment the above guy made, the artist finished the face, then shaded it, then in a separate video finished the hair then shaded that.i guess its his procedure he cant do it another way. i have certain drawing habits myself

[@SCRaM01]

Thank you for this video. So many people are just showing sped up work as tutorials but You cant see technique so this is much appreciated. Great work!

[@2cwik4u104]

very awesome. a lot of patience pays off.

[@lilstkngal]

The music is giving the drawing a sense of something slowing coming to life, a wonderful video. I am totally amazed how smooth and well toned and blended you created w cotton swab, when I was using a Chamois it was blochy and forget a blending stump it left streaks. How light of a pressure is used w the swab? Is the mechanical pencil a particular size like the various soft or hardness as the pencil? I would like to hear some narration instruction or is it in the time lasped video?

How long does it take per drawing

[@RunwayCats]

couple of hours ! depending on the size of the drawing and the artist too. beginners take longer for a 5/10 quality of drawing. id assume his drawing took 3-6 hours

i need like 10 hours to make a realistic drawing,but its worth it :D

me too

[@gaminggyal6262]

it depends on your mistakes that you make. if there's alot then alot of rubbing out is in place but if u make less (like this guy in the vid) it can be relitavely fast. it's all about patientce

[@alyssacurry9086]

I need art supplies😭

[@hobisdimples94]

Girl all you need is commitment! :) I am currently working on an extremely detailed pencil drawing using nothing but a 0.3 mechanical pencil and a piece of printer paper, and it's going amazingly well! I've even been using my fingers to shade and blend, although, I think I'm gonna use a cotton swab from now on, that seems less messy lol. Trust me, you don't have to have special equipment to create beautiful art, you only need the time and inspiration :)

[@alyssacurry9086]

emi loo Thanks for letting me know. I often feel intimidated because I don't have a lot of fancy supplies because I think I won't do it right.

[@hobisdimples94]

I've never really been one for diverse/expensive art tools, I just like to work with the minimum amount, or whatever I have on hand. Whether it's watercolor painting or pencil drawings, I find that it's best to start out simple and ONLY get the bare minimum of tools and supplies you need, so that you don't overwhelm yourself. As you grow as an artist, you can begin to see what tools you might want to consider or what works best, but like I said, begin with what you have on hand and practice as much as you can! Art often intimidates me as well, and starting a new project is sometimes a hassle. However, it is ALWAYS rewarding to accomplish any type of artistic endeavor, and you will only get better with practice. As someone with no formal artistic training, I think the best way to learn is by doing and teaching yourself. Good luck, and remember there's no time like the present! ^-^

[@lawsonforensics6455]

I promise that I am not an evil internet troll, just offering a thought as a professional portrait artist. You can get a more dramatic effect (darker darks, smoother blends) in a fraction of the time with charcoal.(meaning-this entire drawing-not just forehead-rendered to at least this level of skill, apx. same size honestly takes me around 30 min. Not bragging just offering a material comparison) I know that charcoal is intimidating to some artists, but with practice it is superior.

[@loricrockett-owens5117]

awesome work right? I dont eve n know how Im going to figure out how to draw, thought I was doing good! but the i realized how heavy handed I am! I couldn't draw like this on my best day! 😊💓

drawing is a gift it cant be taught in my opinion

I think it can to a degree, as long as the passion for art is there, and of course, practice and push yourself everyday, the unfamiliar teaches you so much, especially when you return to drawing things that you are more comfortable with.

You probably don't know how much I needed this video. Most of the how-to-portrait-videos I've watched are either timelaps / speedpainting style, just the sketching, or they use different art media (like watercolour, acryl,...). I'm practicing pencil portraits for 15 days now, and there hasn't been a single day I haven't beat myself up over how long it takes me to blend the skin. 10 minutes in and I haven't done half of the face, and I start to kick and hate myself.

Bravo Chris! I watched every careful stroke. Great video of the technical aspects of shading to bring out the physical features softly and in the end you have realism. Kudos!

[@tamigilge8690]

You, my dear, have a very special gift. I love to sketch although I’m not nearly as good as you but it relaxes me and puts me in another world...and watching you draw sends me into that same world!!! You are awesome!!

hell of a shading incredible

[@MyChristi123]

So patient and steady. I would definitely give up & rush but u make it worth while by taking ur time

[@EnsignSuder]

Your technique is stunning! How you achieve such subtle shading, with a mechanical pencil, no less, is amazing. I would have unwanted lines everywhere. Thanks very much for the video.

[@Itsunaiz]

You've got mad talent. Your videos have been of immense help. Many thanks!

A video on learning how to draw without saying a word, best video ever.

[@megawin2511]

by far his best work

[@siyanagwekar3658]

Amazing work. One has to practice on their own how to apply pressure during blending and shading. This video also tell us that all good work comes with lot of patience and hard work.
