Drawing portrait in charcoal.

[@griqs]

The roughness and texture adds to the quality of the overall style and it makes it so much more beautiful than realism

[@zinlimart]

We are impressionist/

[@DiegoLopez-rl3jk]

God, my exact words. Yeah, realism works are Indeed beatifull, but impressionism is just gorgeous

[@darrenflood2919]

I really appreciate these types of videos. It’s relaxing and I get to see how the major shapes and strokes slowly build up into a masterpiece.

[@zinlimart]

Glad you like them!

[@jakobgjertsen2801]

I like how rough the start is

[@jpalberthoward9]

This is the kind of thing that comes to my mind when I hear the word "art". This is the real thing. You have captured her essence and it is spectacular. Very nicely done.

[@jimmyross4352]

From what initially appears to be approaching chaos, to a good likeness within 10 minutes. Then on upward to the beauty of the subject, expressed in a very ''painterly'' manor. All this despite the fact her lips are parted in the photo....a truly brilliant performance!

[@zinlimart]

Thanks for watching and your comment about the process, too!

[@jimmyross4352]

You're very welcome. Fascinating technique!

[@BlackLegASTRO]

at 10:52 it's already perfect for me. there's something appealling on that roughness and smudges of the portait. It gives off that incompleteness vibes that makes a person curios about what it looks like if you actually decide to finished it.

My favorite stage is 5-10 minute as well.

slow down the video bro

[@jojo-sf9lt]

Very impressive! I love this sort of rendering, with no millimeter accuracy and yet complety faithful to the original ! It gives a very expressive and contemporary look to the portrait, that's exactly how I would like to draw ! Still stuck with the grid pattern for the moment... picking techniques here and there to help me move away from it... May I ask you how much practice you needed to reach this result? And do you work from a picture the same size as your drawing or not necessarily? I mean I find it extremely hard to work from a small picture and keep the exact proportions when drawing a larger format. That's always a big challenge for me even with a grid pattern while you don't seem to be disturbed by this ! °.°

[@zinlimart]

What I believe is that practicing everyday is the best way to upgrade, no matter how long total hours spent. Life size is the best but hard to have have it from photo and live model due to the distance.

[@jojo-sf9lt]

Thank you for your answer !

[@jodders619]

Honestly I've been working away through Andrew Loomis's books trying to reacquire lost portrait skills. Right now I can't draw a portrait for toffee. I can produce a fairly decent sketch of any animal so long as I have a reference. Portraits are just damned elusive! Beautiful work and an inspiration to keep going!

[@flylice6358]

This is ART! The other portrait drawings are merely photographs. 这才是艺术！其他的人像画只不过是照片的翻版而已。着笔非常大胆。有国画泼墨的气魄！太棒了！五体投地！

As far as I know, wood should be burned in vacuum to be a product, firm charcoal sticks. But why not, we can experiment and could find a possibility.

[@minhajul2023]

It is as much as charcoal pencil

[@thefunguy4008]

So creative. Congrats

[@AndreClements]

I often make my own, in a fireplace or over gas-flame, fun to experiment and offers more of a variety of properties than any commercial art store could offer - go for it!

[@edzejandehaan9265]

Use willow, remove the bark and avoid knots. Take branches at least two years old. Pieces about as thick as your thumb (they shrink during charring). Put in a tin can with a lid that fits tightly, but be sure to punch a hole in the lid. Put tin can in fire, gasses will escape through the hole, and catch fire. That stops after about half an hour. Removd from fire and IMPORTANT don't open before well cooled off. It is easy, and I compared it with store bought willow/vine charcoal, and don't notice any difference.

[@harrystyles6304]

did u used water with that brush?

[@zinlimart]

Only charcoal

[@roman2011]

Really nice drawing....FYI...using finger to smug will leave oil and the drawing will turn yellow faster over time. Use a cloth or stick instead.
