    Hi Karen, I finally had time to sit down and relax while I watched you draw this adorable baby monkey. Karen, he is so beautiful and so sweet. I don’t think there isn’t anything you can’t do with your pencils. Totally inspiring!

    Thank you for recording a brilliant tutorial and explaining some of your techniques. it was very useful to see the whole process from start to finish. Including how you made the changes at the end. It shows how important it is to take a break and come back to your drawing later, allowing you to spot where it can be improved.
    You also mentioned the difficulty in getting the darker values with the graphite pencils and possibly trying out powdered graphite. Can I also mention that you can buy powdered charcoal, which may give a darker value and could also be worth a try.

      Thank you so much David! I really appreciate your comment! Truly. You made my day. 😊 And may I also thank you for your suggestion on the powdered charcoal. I think that’s a brilliant idea.

    Oh Karen. How incredibly beautiful and amazing. All these artworks you are doing- absolutely speechless.

    Faces are hard at that angle! Amazing job fixing his eye, Karen. It’s scary to make corrections, worrying we’ll make things even worse. Especially with so many hours invested in a drawing. Your chimp is beautiful!

      Thank you so much Maylynn! Honestly I never thought I could do this 4 years ago. It just happened gradually with practice and honestly I think adult coloring helped a lot! You should pick something simple and give it a try. You might surprise yourself!❤️❤️❤️

    What a wonderful and enjoyable tutorial, and process you go through to bring him to life. Glad I found you to help me get back to pencil drawing. I can see his personality in his face, great job!
