[@chrisfitzpatrick3289]

To the person who said “what is the point if a printer can do it” you must be the kind of person who just enjoys bringing others down who have talent and passion. When you pour your time into a piece of art that you are proud of and inspires others you will realise that you have done something much more than a printer ever could do.

Jealousy is always my last choice when I try to understand why somebody says something insulting, but this time I can't find a better explanation than jealousy. That person is void of artistic soul.

[@Shvetsario]

People might not see it as a hand made piece of art, and that's why their first intention is that it was simply printed out. But really, in my opinion, you should make art that you personally enjoy. If you're making artwork just to show off, you will encounter people who dislike it and so you'll personally be depressed by that. You can't expect everyone in the world to like your art, (as everyone has different tastes) so don't get that idea and end up getting angry about it. Ignore those that dislike your art, be happy that there are instead those that enjoy it.

[@theinvisiblegaijin1165]

I do realism art too, and I've had people question the same thing, what's the point of doing a drawing so realistic when u can just print it. Initially I didn't have an answer for that and was stumped. I even felt somewhat offended. It's true there's hardly any creativity involved. And when you think of making art, it's often synonymous with creativity. Then I realised, sure a printer can do it, but a human being able to do it manually takes incredible amount of patience, skill, technique and even talent I would say, to recreate an image to trick The Eye into thinking it's real. That's why after all these years, I'm still into realism

[@maggiedormer1208]

I have only recently started drawing again after about a 40 year gap! I have tried Polychromos but I can’t “get” the blending at all so I’ve switched to pastel pencils for now. Your work is truly inspiring so here’s hoping you have some luck with the Luminance. I have just bought half a dozen Luminance to try out but, as you say, they are very expensive!

[@AlexisCassandraArt]

excited to see what you do with your new papers and pencils! You’re right, I notice the polychromos pencils take FOREVER to do anything with. They’re beautiful pencils and you can get realistic works with them but they take a long time. They’re also much better for details than luminance, so I recommend using them together - luminance for the blending and for very fine details the polychromos. I like blending with luminance much more because it is easier and the pencils are creamier. I plan on making some separate tutorials on my channels because I realized how my colored pencil methods change depending on what brand I’m using 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@johnlogan5760]

Suggestion, you are better than anyone that I have seen on the net and as far as Hyper Realism goes even better than Heather Rooney (In my humble opinion) "Big Compliment" !

I gotta say, man. Sometimes we have to change the vantage point from where we take our view of art. The skill you developed is nothing short of astounding. It's an incredible display of patience, endurance, talent and carefully honed study. But man, I can only imagine the type of OCD and anxiety that style must trigger in you. You would still do killer stuff with a looser, more painterly style. Such as the charcoal drawings by Sargent, but in colored pencil instead. That's what I'm striving for myself. You would still make beautiful, expressive and impressive work. But it would only take you 10 to 15 hours to finish a colored portrait piece. Give yourself your sanity back. Still, whatever you do, I'll watch and support. We all need to stick together in this. Much love and blessings to you.

A normal person can just print while an extraordinary person amazes with his skill to do that without printing I was blown away by your art sir And feel lucky to have watched your videos

[@AlexandraZe]

Not gonna lie, this video made me feel a bit sad, and I will explain why. First off, if I may, I think you haven't researched enough when taking this drastic decision, when it comes to drawing in coloured pencils. Now, I have been using this medium for 3 years and I have also started with Polychromos. I saw the way you create skin, and as much as I salute you for your patience (because I do the same at times, when I feel like I'm into doing very detailed work), it's not an efficient way to create a portrait. I can understand why Luminance seems like a better option, but the truth is, there is no "better option". Coloured pencils work best together, oil based with wax based. If you decide to use smoother pencils like luminance, you'll find it frustrating to create finer detailes, for example, that you can only achieve with a pencil like Polychromos, that has a firmer lead. My advice is, try to add a couple of layers of Polychromos at first, and use a solvent afterwards. But a very, very small amount of it, so that the tooth of the paper is well covered (but not entirely). And then you can go in with the Luminance, to get a more burnished effect. I know you said that the burnish effect doesn't look good for the skin because it makes it unrealistic, but you can still add further details with a darker pencil, afterwards, using the glazing method (pores, fine lines, freckles, moles etc). Or, you don't need to burnish all the way, just add enough layers until your skin looks smooth enough. This way, using both your sets of coloured pencils, you will find that you will save time and money, as the solvent helps alot. I used to avoid it as well, but realized that it's essential in order to create realism without layering forever. You still have to layer alot, but not as much, and it saves time and money. Most artists love to combine these exact sets of pencils (myself included) and I get the best results in this way. I also love the derwent lightfast pencils, expensive but very good, similar to the Luminance ones. You can also combine all of these with the Prismas, of course. So don't limit yourself to one type and brand of pencils, because you will miss out on some interesting combos and results (plus colour tones you may not find in the same set). All that being said, I can't wait to see what you create next! :)

[@sonuholic]

Very true💯 And looking at you..I thought of buying faber castell. But they didn't arrive twice! Don't know if it's a coincidence..That you were going to tell in this video. They were difficult to blend😅 Well..all the very best for your new journey. Would love to learn more from you.

Try Clarefontaine pastlemat. It's a a grittier paper designed for pastels but great for pencil work too. You need to use a very, very light hand and lots of layers.

[@joeblankenship377]

People rave about Polychromos and they're not wrong. They're nice pencils, but oil-based pencils can be such a chore. They're so hard and take forever to blend. Whereas wax-based pencils are so soft and easy to blend and smooth. If I could afford a full set of Caran d'Ache, I'd use them all the time. I mainly use Prismas and a some Poly's here and there. And Bristol paper is really good. I went back and forth between smooth and vellum, but vellum is probably the best since it's got more tooth for blending.

[@wewk584]

I kind of prefer very real art vs hyper real. Being able to see flaws and being able to tell the medium keeps it organic. Having said that I do appreciate your past work (why I subbed) and look forward to your new direction

[@Sam-zz7gs]

To answer the 'what's the point if you can just print' question, is because its not always about the subject. To draw photo realistic its about the being able to apply a high level of skill, detail, observation, time and of corse enjoyment into a drawing and looking back and being proud of an impressive achievement. Not everything you draw has to display creativity and meaning, if you like doing it and are proud of the result then you've found the "point"

[@ariana.5420]

I say you should draw landscapes and start painting if you haven’t tried it yet! It maybe more time consuming with landscapes but it can be fun trying new things.

[@sarahadkins2540]

Alonya Nickelsen has a powder blending system and you pair it with sanded paper, pastelmat, or anything with a tooth. I have Polychromos and Luminance colored pencils and the results will shave off a considerable amount of time on your portraits. You’ll get as many layers as you want and I’m actually enjoying drawing with this system. They’re both very different pencils but I have been working on my own experiment with it and while it takes some getting used to it’s worth it in my opinion. I hope it helps you out because I would have used odorless mineral spirits instead of dry blending like that. I am nowhere near as patient as you are.

[@FernandaSomenauer]

I might be biased and, of course, I'm miles away from your skills, but I have the Polychromos and the Caran D'Ache Luminance (a small set, to test them). I think the Caran D'Ache have a pastel pencil kind of touch that turns me down. I wanted so bad to like them, I was wishing to buy the 76 colors set, but the pastel touch kinda bothers me, don't know. Among the sets I own they are the least used. Looking forward to see what they can do in your hands!

[@solarpower144]

Per my last post... I'm now kinda curious why you don't use OMS. Stonehenge is very good paper but, you can use any good 90 lb weight paper w/ a tooth (aka cold press) & get same results. Regardless, you are correct... Polychromos requires more layers even with a cold press surface; hence the OMS. Saves the tooth of paper, gives you a lot of control and doesn't require 500 layers. Have you tried OMS?

[@iriejohns]

I love your art! From my experience, I would recommend trying Prismacolor pencils with strathmore mixed media paper or canson illustration board. I’ve tried Fabre Castell and caran d'ache luminance colored pencils but personally I like Prismacolor the most. This is based on its performance and cost, they average about $2 each at my art stores and the other brands are $3-$6 each. I like the way they blend and their waxy texture, and they rarely break for me since I use an electric sharpener. They also seem to not take as long to make a complete drawing. I average 10-30 hours per drawing. I noticed you have strathmore colored pencil paper and I think it works pretty well, I’d be interested in hearing what you think about it🖤

Hey ca u try different mediums like oil pastels or either water color it’s almost a like from the layering from light to dark I’m watercolour but it’s ur choice I just wanted to see how you’ll do with other mediums

[@nostalgia3732]

I don’t know you would notice my comment or not but I’ve been an artist for 7 years you are way better than me but apply this principle luminance are great for skin tones ..prisma colours are so soft they can easily blend and also used for skin tones but faber castell polychromos are oil based they are hard they are great for skin texture and and little details..

[@rudymustaine2411]

I wish you gave those polychromos pencils to me... It would be a dream come true

[@ivanstoyanov5145]

Keep doing what you love try different materials and do more videos . Because your videos are so helpful

[@dennisbazanart]

try odorless mineral spirits or Gamsol for blending like Lachri Fine Art!

[@dennisbazanart]

@@Neeyellowart YES! you definitely should try it out! that is my main method of blending for colored pencils, and it is amazing!

Any update on drawing with the Caran D’ache ?!

[@sharadshrestha3810]

I was looking at your realtime drawing video of Morgan Freeman and and I was thinking the same thing.. wow.............this is going to take quite a lot of hours to complete this piece. I have the same issue... the amount of effort and time it takes to perfect the drawing with color pencil is tremendous and at some point I also started thinking is it even worth it? I love art in general not matter what medium it is.. I still love color pencils but I recently starting working with pastel pencils and I'm quite happy with it. I would love to watch you try out some pastel pencils.

[@christianevensantillan2036]

You inspire me to draw. I’m still practicing though (also lacks materials lmao).

NeeYellow, I need some advice. I’m an amateur artist and I have a heavy colouring style with pencil. I burnish most of my surfaces. I just purchased a 120 Set of Faber-Castell Polychromos. Have I bought the wrong brand? Would I be better off buying the Caran D’Arche? Ps. G’day from Melbourne, love your work mate!

[@pranjalpaint-brush6947]

[@cherylnelson4837]
