Oof that's not a good idea lol I do that too though but I'm not trying to be professional If anyone seeing this uses their finger that's not a good idea because the oil on your fingers Will get on the paper and it won't blend as well so if you don't have any good blending materials you could use a white colored pencil or a tissue
Dinosharttt I always thought they were useless before I started being a artist then I became a artist and that’s when I knew that they were not useless
THANKS!!! It's been 10 yrs since I've touched my colored pencils and just started getting back into it. I'm super rusty and found this exceedingly helpful :)
I’m honestly so glad to know that other people seemed to get nervous when drawing on the eyelashes. I’ve done before but never in colored pencil. I have work around if I mess up using graphite, and if I’m doing them digitally it’s pretty simple to re-do them.
Oh my god! This video seriously helped so much. I seriously didn't expect to be able to make such a realistic eye! But i went step by step and was able to take the time to really blend and layer/build up colors.
Of course it doesn't look as good as the one in the video but only because i don't practice drawing as much as i should and normally don't use colored pencils often usually just graphite so the fact that it came out so good surprised me. It is rare to find such a helpful drawing video on here since most of the time the person speeds up the footage so it is hard to see what they're doing but this is great!
Thank you for talking in this video. There's a lot of videos on how to draw but they don't talk through and splaining what they're doing and why they're doing it. They just show. Thank you so much.
This is a great tutorial , very detailed and easy to follow , I'm gonna give this drawing a shot even though mine won't be even near as good lol , keep up the good work
Me: *I'm finally finished!* - shows family - Dad: Wow! Well done you can draw a.... A..... A fish! Me: *Dad! This is not a fish! It's supposed to be an eye..*
I found you the most soothing instructor thus far! I've been looking at pencil tutorials for days... Your pace is easy, doesn't feel stressful, the background music really lulls...really perfect. THANK YOU, big help. Website is great too
I'm literally just using super simple freaking $3 pencils but it is still looking amazing thanks to your tutorial, even though it's harder and doesn't look as good as yours, it goes to show that anyone can draw.
Thank you so much, I did this and it looks amazing. I'm not experienced in drawing much, especially with prismacolors, but the drawing turned out almost as good as yours. :)
Thanks. What a great tutorial. Instructions all so fluent and well organized. I find it really hard though, how you create something, then seem destroy it with the next addition and then spread the colour, and then again at some later point reconstruct it. Yet all of these steps are so important. Hope to gain the gist with practice. Thanks so much!!
I have ZERO experience with colored pencils and have always kind of written them off as a tool for doodling or given to kids with coloring books, basically never taken them as a serious medium. So unfortunate for me!! I snagged a large bag of the same prismacolor you’re using here at a thrift store ( about 60-70 brand new!!) for $4.99!! I was also unaware of what their value was and almost walked away from it! So glad I snatched them up… I love em!! In fact, I’m only missing the light peach out of the colors you were using in this video but I have a peach that should work just fine, I believe, with the right amount of pressure and blunting. I had no idea that you could blend these and buttery they are! Absolutely amazing and I now I am curious as to other brands that are popular with colored pencil artists. I’m really enjoying them, I love so many aspects they offer, I really am kicking myself for not taking them seriously for this long! But here, at least I didn’t totally miss out on them and I am enjoying the hell out of them now! Do you have any suggestions for paper? I am primarily a watercolor artist so I have a variety of types, thicknesses, and textures at my disposal currently and really haven’t settled on any single type yet. Any advice would be greatly excepted! Thank you for the great video, from this one and I’ve learned quite a bit! Also, if I don’t have a blender yet, do you have any other suggestions that would be similar? I haven’t fully looked into exactly what a blender is but I am assuming that it is just a clear waxy, buttery burnishing type tool? 🤘💪
I am amazed how you are able to teach so well. I am an artist myself and have tried a variety of youtube videos with step by step instructions to learn new techniques but none have been by far the most helpful as yours. I now have my very own realistic eye all thanks to your video. May others see how well your skills are as i have.:-)
More like this please. So easy to follow and it's convinced me to possibly invest in buying a course or two. Much better than those time lapse "tutorials" that some so-called instructors post that teach nothing and trying to follow them is impossible. Thank you.
Everything about your videos is excellent! Far superior to anything else around. Your talent is amazing, and your voice is beautiful. So many RU-vidrs have speech impediments and worse. But you, you’re the standard others ought to copy. Thank you 🙏
This is one of the best videos I have seen in a long time. I particularly like the way you close up to your drawing so we see how you draw, especially the lashes and it seems in real time. Furthermore mentioning which colour you use as you go along is very helpful. Thank you!
Fantastic i loved every minute , finally i have found what i have been looking for someone to show and tell me in real time , i will seriously consider joining
I really enjoyed your video. You are a great teacher. Just the right speed and tone of your voice. I really appreciate you sharing your talent with us. You super talented.
Finally... a fucking art video that teaches me art skills I want to learn. It’s either a speed up video or they don’t tell you what to use... thank you!
Wow how beautiful my eye turned out! and that`s all thanks to you because I am not such a great artist! it`s just your wonderful technique step by step and you are really good at explaining what you are doing! Thank you, I appreciate you!
wow, I'm just 13 years old, my aunt came from Pakistan and showed me how to draw eyes since she took fine arts in college. I use her techniques but they were way too hard to master and need time to master. I tried your way and everything came out perfectly. it doesn't look exactly the same, but very similar. this video helped a lot! you don't even need prisma colors, u can use polychromos which I am using (expensive too). i just need a little more practice on the outside of the iris, it is quite tough for me to make the white part look real.great video, keep it up. definitely liked and suscribed.
hey, so you were using a colorless blender here. I tend to use blending stumps (with a liquid to blend the colors together) What's the difference between blending stumps and colorless blenders? When is it appropriate to use blenders, or to use stumps? Thanks
