I came across this video recently. I am a self-taught artist and mostly paint with acrylics and oils. As soon as I saw your video I was inspired and immediately ordered the necessary materials to draw. Thank you for sharing your your knowledge!

[@tracybyone6879]

Where did u find the first metal tool he uses to apply the loose charcoal? What IS THAT TOOL called??????

[@soupynoodles4618]

@@tracybyone6879 actually it's plastic and it's called palette knife

[@MsBonsai2010]

@@soupynoodles4618 WRONG. They're called sofft tools, designed to be used with pan pastels & charcoal.

[@poojr.3559]

@@tracybyone6879 search for palette knives that come with soft caps :)!!

[@ExnersRange]

Dude you’ve motivated me to buy a kit and start using charcoal

[@MadCharcoal]

Sick man! Charcoal is a very freeing medium, it's a lot of fun

[@arielmoore4233]

You do such beautiful work with charcoal. I love work that isn't complete photo realism but where the artist has bent the rules to create something more. You are generous with how you think and teach as you work. Watching you I learn so much.

[@passage2enBleu]

You're a sculptor of light. Always love watching your work unfold it's beauty.

[@anthonybellini8501]

Dude your amazing. What’s weird is I always draw better when not really trying and with a loose hand. Why is that

[@helloabwatson]

Same here, when I let go of perfection, the end result is always better?

[@anthonybellini8501]

Do you give lessons? What other mediums do you do? I want to start oils and further my charcoal work. Where you located in the world. Your talent is sooo obvious cuz. Few marks on page and one would know how good you are.

[@darkwest8028]

I think it's because when you try to get better and better without inspiration or fun. And when you just want to paint it's a completely different feeling. Thus, the pictures are better and you are much looser or more relaxed.

[@stevengarrett4370]

You know dude I'm left handed and I'm so good at drawing with my left hand but bad at the right hand

[@stevengarrett4370]

I think when you try to draw something intentionally you're mind is not free to do what it does but when you are drawing freely you're mind is enjoying it and same for me

[@renzo6490]

I took a screen shot of the reference and turned it black and white to accent the values. None of the pupil is covered by the eyelid. It is the iris that is partially covered. The iris is the larger, colored part that surrounds the pupil. The pupil is essentially a hole in the center of the iris which allows light to enter the eye.

[@anzo.p]

Somewhere midways it transforms from a drawing into three dimensional magic of light and shadows

[@cindylong2782]

Gorgeous! I love working in charcoal. I loved what you did with the eye. So expressive and beautiful!

[@dberianh]

Very good illustration. I especially liked that you provided the reference in split screen to see what you were responding to in tonality, position, and referencing. I like your videos.

[@wattsnex2725]

At 8:00 it arrives at a stunning piece of artwork with texture, depth and mystery. Really cool. And it wasn’t even completed yet.

[@ceciliafranklin7403]

Love your method of drawing and teaching style. Just one criticism, the pupil is the tiny black dot in the center of the larger colorful circle, the iris.

[@generatedillusions3124]

Love your work, love your enthusiasm, love the dedication; please keep going. ✌🏽This is the way.

[@sandyphillips2467]

Watching this video when l was having my morning coffee thank you for your time it’s just brilliant Sandy uk

[@sandypackard5321]

You are such a good teacher! Great way of explaining why and how.

[@vincentvanpot4333]

Really liked the video! I find it amazing how you can teach as you create.

[@JessieB111]

Glad I found your channel. I have been binge-watching your videos. I like your teaching/demo style. Very inspiring. 👍

[@jameslenoir6035]

Thank you for explaining your thought process as you draw.

[@ronaldcurtner6402]

I squint as well and was discouraged to do so but it always helps . Glad I'm not totally weird.

[@aylayesilmen6060]

Very useful video! Please more skwtching exercises on other parts of face e.g.mouth , nose ears. Please.

Thanks for the video ... I will also try to use more compressed charcoal ... willow gets blown away so easily. Good luck!

[@jeremiahhernandez9605]

[@LeandroPaulino-qe3dc]

Amazing ,amazing ,amazing !!!!!!!!!!beautiful teachet.

[@staceygrimes4107]

Amazing.♥️

[@mrgeorgejetson]

Nice drawing! FYI: the pupil is the dark part in the center and the iris is the colored part around it that opens and closes the pupil. You had it backwards.

[@TT-kg3li]

Amazing to watch and learn from you. It looks so effortless!

[@rosangeladeoliveira5051]

Muito obrigada voce e dimaisssss.....

[@joyhunter3426]

Love it. Thanks so much for the lesson.

[@lesleytretter3831]

You have your pupil and iris mixed up. The pupil is the black central part of the eye and the iris is the coloured section surrounding the pupil.

[@deigo2629]

I can draw eyes for daysssss.... its when it comes to drawing a pair of matching eyes .. I fall short

[@craigsisler]

That blank space on the lower lash line right below the eyeball really bugs me!

[@Jsk-media097]

Charcoal pencil is enough for this 🤔

[@donjose1458]

dibujó un ojo , pero no el de la fotografia !! en este , si la idea era copiar el ojo de la fotografia , el dibujo no está bien !!!

[@cluek9780]

The colored part is the iris; the central dark is the pupil. Learn before you teach.
