My Favorite Drawing Tools for Charcoal on Canvas 

How you only have 10k subs has to be YT suppression. Great vids, and thank you for the tips!

Super sweet of you to offer business and sales tips. How great that you are making your living at this.

Pease wear some type of mask when spraying acetone and fixative. You might not see any affects of it now but in years to come it will seriously affect you. Please take this as I intend it as a precaution.

My new favorite art instructor online!

Can’t wait to see the Grid method video.! Glad to see you back in here and sharing the art. I loved the Easter Piece.!

It would be awesome if you can share full tutorials of your drawings. Would be happy to become the member if you are on Patreon.

Thanks, Joe, for all this valuable information. I'm a graphite artist but am transitioning to charcoal. Your videos are absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much.

Thank you so very much, appreciated. Love your work and style so much.🙏

I'm so happy I found you and this series; learning SO much!! I LOVE my electric eraser and I often use an old paint brush with the bristles cut down for detailed blending :) Your work is both amazing and inspiring!!

Thank you for the info. I had many questions on your techniques/materials and you've answered many of them. I am looking forward to the hearing more about them. Your work inspires me to keep creating! Thanks again!

🥰❤ as a newbie, really appreciate your demos & tips! Love your gorgeous work. Take care.

Thank you for being so generous!!

Thank you for your time Joel. Im going to try the products you mentioned in your tools video to see if I can get the same outcome as you do with your pieces. I really appreciate the time you take with your videos. Looking forward to the continuation with the draft horses. Its looking really good and only first steps. Im very framilure with the harness and rigging and your doing a fantastic job with it. I can almost smell the leather cleaner/softner as well as the sweet smell of horse sweat 😂 brings back good memmories!!! Have a great day. -Jill C.-

Thank you Joel!

Very cool process!!

Excellent!

oop! I had bought the wrong acetone. Thanks for the video, it's easier to see. i looked to find a picture of a kodiak...it's the touch you put on it that makes it so wonderful. your paintings are fabulous

Thanks very much for this!☺️

Thank you for starting this series! I just started this type of art after being inspired by you. I'm excited for the tips on not just the art but the marketing as well.

Thanks Joel. Always good to know the tools behind the talent. Looking forward to your grid technique vid as well as the others.

Joel my friend, you’re creating some awesome work!…just one thing, you need to take more caution when spraying. Right now you’re young and don’t seem to concern about this. The sad news is that as you get older you will start noticing the effects of these chemicals!

Thank you man!! These videos really really help😊 always look forward to your content.

Fantastic information,thank you for making these videos.

Thanks for sharing! I also do charcoal work but have been doing it on watercolour paper so am excited to try it on canvas. I haven’t used powder yet so have it on order now. One thing I do use for blocking in is Pan Pastel. It lasts forever and has small applicators to large applicators and it is erasable. When I don’t want something to smudge like the willow, I use this as well.

Appreciate the info, looking forward to your marketing strategy, keep up the great work 👍

I had no idea there was an electric eraser. Thanks for the video! I think I'll try drawing charcoals on canvases for the first time soon.

Thank you so much！！

Thank you

Buen video 👍

Good video

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I’m excited about your series coming up! Do you ever use colored charcoal?

Thank you for putting this together. I'm new to art and want to reach your level. Mindset of a great artist is important, would you share your thoughts on how a great artist approaches a complex art piece and maintain a positive attitude through challenges and failures to see the project to the end. Love your work, hope to buy you lunch someday.

Wow. I would never have thought about the nail polish remover. Thanks for all the fantastic info! Do you use Milo’s Gallery canvases. The highest quality?

Thank you for your time in doing these videos. You answered the questions I had for you on the eraser video. I am curious about the answer to one of the questions someone asked on the eraser video. When you brushed the charcoal in the beginning you didn't lose the drawing. How did you not lose the drawing? I don't brush hard and yet my drawings vanish if I brush over them. Again your time and work are very much appreciated!!!😊 - Jill C.-

Can you please makea list of the materials? Will be great

HI Joel : I'm a beginner charcoal artist and your series has inspired me with the possibilities in charcoal. I always have a problem with finding something that I havent already drawn in graphite or color pencil that im actually interested in. Finding something to feel excited about starting is always a issue with me. You mention your reference library, but your subjects look original. Any thoughts about getting the process started. thanks tom

Please make one final sealing which is EPOXY RESIN. I wanna see the final glossy and luxurious feel

He visto un vídeo tuyo de como sellar y realmente me es difícil encontrar esos materiales aquí

Thank you! I’m working on a piece this week on canvas. I found it hard to erase the second and third layer after applying the fixable, do you have any suggestions on how to know when to apply it or how much?

Hi Joe, on the paintings that you add the oil glaze to, do you use the white acrylic for the highlights prior, or do you skip that step?

is the spray nozzle you use the best? or is the amount you spray that matters? Also, what dark pencil do you use for details such as eyes? Also, lol sorry... but will the acetone work on carbon and really dark thick charcoal and graphite?

pls share how you apply that sponge effect

Have you ever used pan pastels to add more color?

Joel, Do you use a smooth or fine weave canvas or rough or larger weave?

What’s the can of spray sealant again? I couldn’t catch the brand and product

Hola que tal si no tengo acetona puedo usar thiner acrílico o laca acrilica

Can you write the brands on a comment here please?

So many ways to die
