I am not an artist….just someone who enjoys and appreciates it. So much talent!!!

[@JonoDry]

Thanks, Ruth! Glad you enjoyed the video

[@meghnaganguly9781]

Me seeing the title of the video: I should definitely send some of my drawings for critics. Me after seeing the first drawing: Never mind. Maybe 30 years down the line. 🙂

[@ArtsWorkbyRS]

Thank you so much for the critique of my drawing of the lion. It was extremely helpful and I could fully get what you meant. Once again it is great how you constantly give us valuable content week after week.

[@alessandrarussoart]

Congrats for your artwork it’s amazing 🤩

[@JonoDry]

thank you for submitting, Robin! and for your support as a Patreon 🙏 😊

[@ArtsWorkbyRS]

@@alessandrarussoart Thank you so much Alessandra! I appreciate your feedback alot 🤗

[@RamssesPharaoh]

Thank you BOTH, for sharing your extraordinary Art.

[@meaghanwyatt5701]

Thank you Jono for the critique of the dog. You got my name correct - Meaghan (Megan):) I had started with that ear and realized as i went along it was too detailed but did not know how to fix. Getting the blurred areas is almost harder than the fine details. Much appreciated:)

[@JonoDry]

Thanks for submitting and being a Patreon, Meaghan 🙏 😊

[@michaelenechi]

Totally enjoyed your critique. I've noticed that much more than detailing, contrast plays a major role if not the most role

[@ruchi8178]

I'm in love with your dark and light values...

[@urvishapatel8421]

Your drawings are not drawings, your drawings are emotion ♥

[@oldschoolcajun]

Don't worry about being hurtful when critiquing. An artist is his own worst critic. Look at it as being a teacher, helpful. I love how your voice carries into your work. Soft and flowing. Thank you for assisting with tips to make our drawings more realistic as what is in our mind's eye.

[@JonoDry]

Thanks so much, Christina 🙂

[@andrewmarthie5062]

I love how he actually correct it instead of just pointing out the mistakes like the other youtubers do

[@nejlaandme9698]

I love art and drawing. My childhood dream. I want to learn 👍 😊 🙏

[@goranstankovic8472]

Watching this video, hoping that he might've chosen mine art to critique, but no luck. :) I reckon all the artist that saw their work being critiqued in this video by Jono felt great, and appreciated his words. Thanks Jono for taking time to do this for us as well, besides everything else.

[@JonoDry]

Hey, Goran! I only critiqued works submitted by members of my Patreon. I'll link it here in case you are interested www.patreon.com/jonodryart 🙂

Cheers mate, thank you for pointing out my hands and apple “rotten apple”.. will keep that in mind, thanks, only took up drawing about 18 months ago as I learned alots from you. Thank you again

I love every video and every drawing you make. I wish I will be like you one day!

[@StevenERice]

Jono this was really helpful. I especially appreciate the segments when you illustrate your advice by drawing on the submission. It is incredibly informative and instructional. Just in this short video I gained two really important tidbits which will help my art improve. 1) pushing the contrast with deeper shadows and intentional, precise highlights can dramatically improve a piece. 2) Pushing myself to go just a bit further with attention to detail can also pay incredible dividends in moving my artwork forward. Have noticed you stepping up the content game. Appreciate you trying new types of content. This one was a definite winner for me and would love to see regular critique vids. (Oh, and I like multiple critiques across a variety of subjects like you did. Really cool)

[@JonoDry]

thanks for watching and for your feedback, Steve!

[@thambaarts319]

Lovely work!! Keep posting

[@veronicago_123-2]

Hi Jono! I was wondering if you could make a video about your opinions on going to art school. I am trying to decide whether it is worth it or not and would really appreciate your thoughts. loved this video btw.

[@JonoDry]

Hey, Veronica! I have been thinking about this. Thanks for the suggestion 🙂

[@mauraronda1265]

Wow!!!! Speechless. What amazing artist. This is so inspirational.

[@danieldraws]

I really would like to see more of these videos. They allow me to learn so much. Great job 👏

[@JonoDry]

Happy to hear that, Daniel!

[@israelcampoverde8955]

I would love if at the end of every critique, for a few seconds, you put a side by side comparison of the before and after. That way I could pause the screen and have a clear view of the differences made. Nevertheless, excellent content! I admire your artistic ability and knowledge.

[@JonoDry]

Hey! I add water to straighten out the paper as I cut what I need from a large roll so it curls up 🙂

Juno, just know your talent and advice travels further away from you than you know. I am in the woods of woodlawn, Tennessee, USA. I really appreciate your art, you channels and especially identify with the mental and emotional language of what you create and information you share.

I felt so teased seeing my drawing of the old lady there on screen but it wasn’t critiqued 😭😭!! Nonetheless, it was an excellent video and I’ll take cues from the tips your shared on the other submissions. Don’t be afraid to be a little mean 😂, and thanks for the info, Jono! 🙂

[@JonoDry]

Hey, Daryl! Full video featuring more critiques (including yours) coming to my Patreon page soon. Thanks for submitting 🙂

[@jcatalan1496]

Oh man I wish he could’ve checked mine🥺

[@eo5seabee941]

Hyper realism is tremendous but, my thought is that, as long as it's applied to a piece like what you accomplish where apply an unrealistic composition. A piece doesn't always has to be hyper real when drawing an everyday real life composition. You're tremendous and I watch to see how you work. My osteoarthritis of the thumb has ended my hobby but, I really enjoy your work!!!!!

[@kornelart3122]

Awesome!

[@ZEPR0FESS0RR]

Thank you so much man! Maybe I should send some of mine in, ive only done a couple with your methods. But that’s super helpful! 18:35 Critiquing isn’t always helpful, but if you are doing it from the place of wanting to help and they submitted their art- then critique away!! Such input and pointers are life giving to people like me! So don’t worry about it Juno, the people who want to grow will always be grateful for it, Thank you again!

[@supercheekykiwi]

These are great videos please do more. Hoping that you might pick some which are at slightly a less advanced level next time

[@wamalyaashleysart8708]

[@charlenedewbre1280]

It’s so helpful to learn from your critiques. Beautiful work from your subscribers!

[@JonoDry]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@DanceintheRaine666]

Your critiques are precisely how we were taught to critique in Fine Arts: you are KIND but honest, complimenting first the strengths of each piece, then tactfully and succinctly offering not just VERBAL comments (which was the sole component of a critique available in the early 80's) but it's so HELPFUL to see you ALTER the image using modern tech. A picture is truly worth a thousand words, and whereas formerly, one would seek to understand precisely what the person offering constructive criticism OFFERED, the changes you make to the image give a far more precise demonstration of what you are saying. I have heard MANY "critiques" throughout the decades and whereas some were exploited as an opportunity to be hurtful (wherein another student would NOT post their own work and use the opportunity to be very cruel), more often than not, others provided genuine help, as a new eye can see things one sometimes cannot when working on a piece. YOUR TONE and INTENT are VERY KIND and respectful of the works, the artists and the critique itself. THIS IS PRECISELY HOW to give a "critique" or "constructive criticism" and the world is a better place with such help to others. Well done.

[@ameer.alkaby]

can you do an anime style drawing with your amazing hyper realistic skills? i feel like you can make some crazy shit

[@ManosFeliceArt]

Hi Jono.. I always look forward to watching your critique videos, it's quite amazing how you see 👀 and what your recommendations are, we get so much value from these so greatly appreciated. I have a little question & please forgive my ignorance, the second piece you critique, where the image gives the illusion of ripped pieces of paper... you mention the technique and called it something but I didn't quite catch it as never heard of it before and would love to know more. I obviously don't expect you to explain, perhaps you could write the name & I'll investigate. As always, thank you so much for all your wonderful advice and help. Blessings Manos ✍

Excuse me sir how old are you ? I just turned 19 and I'm practicing as much as i can i like to draw life like drawings and and i have trouble understanding shadow and light and i really want to learn colors but i dont know how to practice them all at the same time. can you give me any tips on practicing shading and coloring ? Please...? By the way you are my favorite artist iove how you shade and detail it reminds me of my art but its 30x better and i can't get shadows as dark as you can or highlights as bright 😅

[@trickynerd1]

There seems to a common theme in all the work that is sent in. Jono always darkens it and it pops so much more. The biggest thing I have learnt from watching these is to go darker than you think in the shadows

[@matthewwahl4737]

Hi Jono your work is impeccable and i would like to know what you use to draw on for paper. I noticed you using water and i would love to know your technique. I've been told by so many people how good my work is but never am i satisfied with my own drawings. I wish you could point out my faults just so i can improve. Thanks.

[@MrJpm1989]

Not trying to sound negative but with each upload I see of your outstanding ability to create such masterpieces ,I'm questioning just what am I doing here. Ok I'm sure many think this from time to time seeing that your in a class all your own. If sketching was magic you are the David Copperfield of as you say pencil drawings. Have you ever thought of having your own small school say no more than 10 students but only for the advanced. Many years ago in the late 70s I would work for free at the Prince Hotel in Toronto just to learn the insane skills that this one head chef had. It paid off all through my career as I was able to work wherever I wanted to and in mostly any position. I could only imagine what skills your students would learn and how they would soar after . Everything starts with a thought 😌.

[@RivkaMacales]

Even though you were critiquing other peoples art I am learning so much from this. And as far as I'm concerned you don't need to fast forward anything. It's more of value to me when I see you draw in "real time". Thanks for being such a great artist and teacher!
