Thomas Fluharty drawing with Pen and Ink 

Havent seen Tom at work since 1981, when we were both in school for art. Best wishes Tom from Eric Eakes.

I like just hearing you talk. Makes a lot of sense. I'm just saying just about all your tips, not needing peoples' approval, not comparing yourself with other artists, even holding the pen loose. Very cool. Old video but new to me.

I saw this video and was really taken by it. Love the loose authenticity of this drawing. I have been slacking on drawing for the last 18 months after taking an expensive art class locally and learning nothing. I got frustrated and quit. I decided to check out Schoolism and signed up for your Fundamentals of Drawing class. I am so in love with it. I hate art fundamentals (so damn boring, shading a ball for an eternity) but I knew I needed a refresher course in a bad way. Two things that sets this class apart from others- 1) I have never, over the span of 25 years and in 3 countries, taken an art class where the instructor drew anything. 2) It started off by throwing you into the deep end of the pool. Here are the basic shapes. Ok now draw this giraffe. Really fun, not at all boring. Definitely not your grandma's art class. I would recommend it to anyone. Please do more of them!

I thought you'd use an inkwell and a steel tip.

His "Fundamentals of Drawing" class is so worth it and so much fun, best course out there, I highly recommend!

U my friend are a badass. Love the loose style and the ‘care-free’ approach. Attitude & confidence can make or break an artist. Cheers!

Lovely work , thankyou from New Zealand.

wow - I could never be that loose in pen and ink - LOL

always enjoy Thomas's knowledge! thanks for sharing

Incredible! There is so much beauty in that sketch. Love the comment way he describes how to hold the pen... 'Dear Grandma vs. Magic' Thank-you!

Love your passion Tom! You really show drawing as a language. Wonderful!

What is amazing for me , as for professional artist , that selective start - without any initial outlines or shapes , he starts from the eye out ..it’s a fantastic technique, very inspiring ! I’m taking classes on schoolism - it’s a hands down the BEST source of creative teaching philosophy ...I’m in LOVE !

This was great Thank you for sharing. I've just started my art journey and appreciated you passing along your tips

GREAT

You are a bad man Fluharty. Love the stuff

PERFECT FOR INKTOBER!

Lovely video ❤️👍 please give me the name of this pen …..

what is the name of your pen?

This is great. You could just share the model picture before you started as you refer to the model quite a lot but we do not see it. This gave me a boost to try ink/pen drawings! Thanks a lot!!:)

Amazing amazing lesson! So helpful! Thank you!

Ain’t nothin too it if you can do it. A master

Thanks so much!I'm starting to draw and your talk really helped to ease my stress over messing things up..

that's cool

Whoa!

wats the name of the artist he is drawing?

What pen did he use? If he mentioned it, I missed it.

Wacom Tablet Properties/Touch Strip/Disabled :)

Would have been nice to see a bit of cross hatching for shading or any other techniques. This is nice but not something you'd look over twice.
