The fact that you're so talented but you're not wasting that talent and you're teaching people just inspires me. I think I speak for everyone who watches your video's when I say we can't thank you enough for taking the time and effort to show us the complex things you've learned and even the simple things. I've been painting for about 10 months and I've watched a lot of your video's and not only have they helped me improve my painting/drawing, you inspire me so much and encourage me to improve, improve, improve... So thank you very much for this video: My teachers have always taught this to their students but I never actually thought it was all that important until I watched this video and realised that I need to know even the simplest things in order to improve so thank you again for this video :) I know how it feels to be inspired and I hope this message inspires you to keep going because that's the whole point of this. Thanks again :)

And he actually explains stuff. A lot of the time when I see artists do tutorials I feel like they're more like "learn how to draw better" instead of "learn how to draw". I need to know the guidelines and the rules before I can make my imagination come to life. That's what drawing tutorials should be about, actually teach someone all the extremely basic stuff and how to implement that in something I want to draw. Schafer's playlist is honestly the best one I've seen.

You’re a living legend man. The fact that you can explain so well and make it as fun as posible is incredible. And as a 12 year old who finds everything blah and boring your videos are inspiring and better at teaching then all the tutorials I’ve been through. Normal tutorials are like step 1.draw a circle.step 2. Draw the frame. Step 3 add details. Without much explanation or guidance. But the fact that you treat us like lost 4 year olds is amazing! And I actually mean this because normal art tutorials always act like we know the basics and general structure. But you walk us through step by step explaining the “why we do it” and the “how to form and make it”. Thank you for making this and knowing that Your audiences level in drawing is most likely a beginner who doesn’t know jack.

I have just discovered you today and I really like your videos . I started from the "learning how to draw " series. I want to learn how to draw and how to paint but I am on the search of a teacher or school.

Keep on :)

[@lawn9652]

I enjoy these so much it's so easy to follow I might just be stupid but there's times where i'll watch a tutorial for art techniques and something will be described and for whatever reason it just goes over my head but following this I fully got what I needed to do and honestly got a tiny bit emotional after accomplishing it I tend to get easily frustrated with my drawing I get weirdly OCD with as I'm sure a lot of people do but I pushed myself passed that mindset and applied these methods and it came out looking decent i've essentially proved to myself that if I apply myself I can do this I can become better at art so thank you for these videos

[@vanessapascoalinho4756]

Omg, perspective makes so much sense now :o going to get a ruler and practice! :) thank you

[@Shadrakor]

I can appreciate that you aren't drawing amazing things in these tutorials. By that I mean, it's rather simple and closer to what I would draw, and that makes it a lot easier to understand I think. Usually I give up trying to draw pretty early on because I get frustrated that I can't draw as well as the teacher. But in this case I feel like I might even be able to get better than these simple drawings with enough practice. It's a long journey from the beginning I think, but tutorials like this really make it seem like a possibility for a beginner like me to get better.
