One of the biggest breakthroughs I had in my art journey is the realization that art takes time. If more people realized this, I think there would be less frustration.

@zombeez5432 6 лет назад

I tried to tell this to my teacher once along time ago but I just got constantly rushed haha...

@IceColdFires 6 лет назад

A bunch of people realize this but they’re still impatient because it’s a habit. That’s why there’s still frustration :P

@squidneythesquid2487 6 лет назад

Ice The Caterpillar that’s the reason for my love hate relationship with colored pencils. I love doing them, and it’s very satisfying to see a bunch of random scribbles of color turn into a very realistic piece. I also think I’m fairly better at them then other mediums, I just need to do them more regularly, but it takes so long! I have very little patience and sometimes I just need to leave so I don’t rush, (backgrounds make me want to just die and I usually end up using paint). But I also enjoy the length of the process, because I often feel empty when I finish a piece(like a book series) and colored pencil pushes that feeling back.

I like how she draws the "don't". She actually makes it seem if someone ( who is practicing realism) will draw. Usually, other channels that do the "don't and do" draw the "don't" as a child or the worst way possible and making it less likely for a fellow artist to relate or grow with their drawing.

Thanks again for reminding me to sharpen my pencils. I heard you say it before but I forgot. So lately I've seen a slight improvement in my portraits except that it doesn't look like I shaded all of the paper. I was wondering why and then I heard you say it's because the pencil isn't sharp. So I should be good now. Nice work btw.

@EmilyIlett 4 года назад

The “don’t” picture isn’t supposed to look horrendous. She’s a professional artist at the end of the day remember so it’s still going to look like a human being. This is purely just to give people tips on how to make their drawings more realistic in general.

@tigereyes5 4 года назад

We get that. But she’s presented it as “don’t” when it is just another style really

@jasonpie5048 4 года назад

@@tigereyes5 its a dont if youre drawing realism. Obviously it doesnt apply to everything everyone could ever do but shes helping people develop realism. also what she was doing was examples of poor technique generally for a lot of the things she said in the dont. a style can look like the dont but the artist would still want good technique.

@Jack-tv5ed 6 лет назад

Your videos helped me unlock a talent I didn't know I had. Thanks so much! Can't wait to draw my first colored pencil portrait.

If ya wanna do that as motivating, find artists closer to your LVL(still above you) n work to surpass them. Take that cake n cut it into slices then to bit sized bits.

@VyvienneEaux 4 года назад

It's been a long time since I've been seriously impressed by an artist, but your coloured pencil hyperrealism is jaw-dropping. I know first-hand how difficult it is to get your values right in colour using coloured pencil and I think what you're doing is incredible. I'd really like to try a colour portrait, but I'm reluctant for the stupid reason that I know the first one is going to be crap! Even though I know good results are preceded by many failures...

@gloriaabraham8534 4 года назад

I came across your tutorials today and they are just what I've been searching for! I want to try my hand at repainting vinyl dolls but not knowing the first thing about art or the use of colour I was at a loss as to where to start. Having watched two of your tutorials however has given me a much better in sight into what I need to be doing to eventually get started. Oh, and you are an amazing artist.

@kevindouglas6120 5 лет назад

Best demonstration I've seen so far. I've been trying to figure out how to get the skin so smooth. My gosh ! I thought I was an artist but sheesh. I'll definitely slow way down and try this out.

WOW! Both drawings/paintings were amazing and so life-like. Thank you for the wonderful tips and demonstration. It was almost like magic that the faces started to grow out of the paper. Especially with the eyes on the second drawing. It was a little comical on the first drawing when you mentioned keeping the pencils sharp, but at that moment you were using a dull pencil to color in the sides of the first face. You were very clear in the instructions why a sharp pencil is so important, but it still brought a smile to my face listening to it. You have a great talent and I hope to find one of your videos that talks about the colors you used in the layers to do a picture or a portrait.
