I love how he's sketching so casual like and not sketching like he's better than anyone else...if that makes sense...a pretentious artist would either be critizing their sketches or making excuses for why they are shit...he sketches like most artists do, shitty, like sketches are supposed to be!!

[@cryssie7181]

Dude you have no idea how so so grateful I am to have come across your channel. I use to like drawing back in my early school years (I'm now in my 20's) but I stopped because I was really bad at it and I'd see other students' artwork and feel intimidated. I ultimately just came to the conclusion that I wasn't "born" to draw lol, silly me. I wished right now the present me could go back in time and just slap some common sense into the young naive me 😂 I realize now that practice and patience is absolute key! things don't just happen overnight. I hear/d it all the time, if you like, love, and or want something, you need to put in WORK to achieve. After watching your first 2 videos of this series, and now I'm here 💁 I'm more motivated than ever to get back into drawing and hopefully I'll become as good as you one day 😊 Thank you so much dude!!!

[@crust9889]

I'm in the same boat as you dude and thought the same...except I waited until 30 to start drawing because I grew up thinking I sucked at it. I'm trying to go into another career path now and get into doing digital concept art and probably some 3d modelling on the side (figured I do my own concept art for my own references for the models.)

I've been drawing occasionally for years now, just basically looking at something and drawing whatever it was, I randomly shaded for the sake of giving it an effect. I look back at them after this video and realized I had about 40 different light sources lol. I picked up a pencil and was almost amazed at the clarity I had of light and its importance. So thanks, never thought I would get any further and I automatically got better after a 15 minute video.

After many years of thinking I couldn’t draw I finally picked up a pencil and tried, with your first three videos I am amazed at what I can achieve, it may be small but from someone who couldn’t even draw a decent stick man to manage circle with a shadow and a bit of shading is a small miracle and for it to look quite realistic is nothing but a revelation to me, I feel for the first time there is hope for me yet….

Thank you so much for these! I really appreciate that the focus is to get out there and try everything and find what you like best. I've already noticed an improvement in my sketching

[@JayArr96]

Man, I like how chill you are in your videos. I’m hoping watching these can help me stay motivated to draw because right now, it’s hard for me. Every now and then, I’ll sit down for hours and just draw a single drawing. The last one was a drawing of Goku, and it took me about 8hrs. Every drawing I start strong. I sketch it out going off a reference photo and I love it. It looks pretty good. I ink it and then I color it and it comes out looking nothing like what I thought it would. Now, I’ll try drawing simple stuff that pops up in my head and I can’t even do that. If anything, it feels like my skills are regressing. I get so demotivated and put my pencil down for long periods of time and refuse to pick it back up because I know anything I draw won’t even be close to what I want. I know I can do it. I can see it in my head and I know exactly what to do but when it comes to making my pencil do it, I can’t. It’s been almost two years since I’ve drawn and it makes me sad. I just want to be good but I can’t get over my own fear of failure. I’ve been planning out this manga story I want to do since I was 18. This story is my dream and I know it will do well if I can just get it out there but I can’t do that unless I get good enough to draw for it. Part of me feels like my dream will just die and I’ll never get good enough no matter how hard I try. I’m sorry, I know this is a long tangent that goes in like 50 different directions and nobody will probably even read it but I have nobody to talk to about it. My only friend that draws is a “professional artist” who does digital design and makes drawings for commission and basically just brags about how good his art is and how it’s better than mine. It’s 5am, I’m exhausted but I can’t sleep because my brain just decided to let me sit and think about how I’ll probably never succeed so that’s fun. Anyways, I’ll shut up now. Thank you for the video, once again. You’re being very generous with your time teaching this skill to others. I hope they can pick it up easier than I can and I hope you succeed in all your endeavors.

[@BergTutorials]

+SchaeferArt Do you believe in talent? Do you believe that if somebody is "talented" and they never draw whenever they decide to pick up a pencil is gonna be easier than someone who does it everyday?Who would end up better? I really wanna get into digital concept art but I don't see myself drawing those backgrounds,but ill keep trying none theless

[@Chris-gy3eh]

+winterhell2002 nah, being good at something is all about the structure of parts of your brain, if your brain is already closer to the ideal structure for a skill, then you have a 'talent'. So from the start, people can be better. However, just about everyone can do it, it just takes more work for some people. Unfortunately, I'm one of those people.

[@SoulGuitarMetal]

+Chris McQueen Finally someone reasonable about "talent" and how skill learning works. Hard to find. However I don't see it as like someone brain structure is better for a skill in general. In some point, different people will realize different things more easier. A few will learn (or realize by itself) shading concepts more easier while others gesture, color, composition, environment, human drawing, etc. It's not a matter of having "talent" but of which 10% of a skill will come naturally to you.

[@rrainville2782]

Just relax and don't over think it. Remember what he said on the first video, don't fall into having a perfectionist attitude when drawing. Don't give up.

[@patricagj1]

Thank you. I'm a complete beginner and have been overwhelmed with "beginner" instruction. You have a way, soft spoken, step wise method of teaching that allows me to take details in and actually learn something. Most importantly, makes me feel like I can go on and progress, so thank you so much!

I know that this is a pretty small detail. But one thing that I love about the artist is that he says something like: ''Let's draw a sphere, it could be anything you want.'' Instead of: ''So now we're gonna draw a sphere.'' You see what I mean? The way this artist talks gives me (and/or other people) more ''freedom'' in drawing. I've noticed that Bob Ross also does that way of talking when painting.

Another good one Brandon with just the right amount of detail. Things I draw are slowly beginning to look like they are supposed to. Cheers from a non artist who couldn't draw a straight a few months ago. :-) peace.

When he moves the paper I feel like I'm watching a sample through microscope

[@jakegibson4499]

These videos are amazing! I was nervous to start drawing again after a few years. These are bringing back everything like it was yesterday

thank you so much for your useful technique!!!! wire, not commit to hard lines, and be mindful about the curve, and the basic forms in everydaylife!!! i found those techniques greatly improve my sketches! thank you for making sketches so interesting by your presentation and sharing!

Me before these videos: Look at this great self-portrait I painted! (points to lousy garbled painting) Me after seeing these first 3 videos: Look at the great ball I drew with shading and shadows! (awesome job!) Planning to spend a lot of time with pencils sketching shapes I now see in everything in the house.
