How to paint a realistic white horse in white charcoal on black paper

In this video, I show you how i create a realistic portrait of a white horse using just white charcoal on black paper. I go through the various stage of adding charcoal and blending with stumps until reaching the desired effects.
This is a very satisfying technique and hope that you will enjoy trying it for yourself.

Hi all...here is a link to the other video I mentioned where i draw a black horse and white horse in this same technique and compare the two. Thanks for watching...

yay!!!! a horse!!!! near and dear to my heart!!!! i knew a "gray" horse (white when i met her) who was born a beautiful bay! as a foal she was a rich brown with black mane & tail. i don't know how unusual that is.
i absolutely **love** bridles - especially the buckles & the bit. i love drawing metal, lol. unlike water, i find it mesmerizing to depict the way light reflects off of metal. considering that you don't particularly enjoy doing bridles, you did a phenomenal job with it.
as i watch you doing the fur direction, i realize that i already know the general fur directions on a horse. i've been drawing horses for years in graphite. of course, all horses are unique, but there is an overall sort-of "fur direction" in most horses for the broader area of the face. i wonder if some day i will become familiar with a basic "fur direction" for dogs (i'm on my 2nd dog painting at the moment). with all the different breeds, i imagine the fur of dogs is a lot more diverse.
which was the first medium you used, when you were first learning your art? charcoal or acrylic? or something else?
thank you for another fantastic video!!! you are slowly but surely getting me interested in trying charcoal pencils.

As a kid i used pencil and colour pencil a lot. I went through a mixed media phase during the teenage years and eventually was just using acrylic on its own. The charcoal is new within the last 3 years. Started doing sketchier drawings on the side to supplement the paintings and used graphite initually but it was too slow...so went over to charcoal. The charcoal vids seem to flop though.....

The horse subject of this drawing was born chestnut, as were his grey siblings. I don't think it's so uncommon.

This is so beautiful! May I ask how you transfered the image from the photo to the paper please?

[@TmHudsonArt]

I do the outlines on cheap paper and then I go over them on the backside in white charcoal and then flip them back upright again and then just go over all the lines in pencil and the charcoal on the underside transfers to the final piece of paper...

@@TmHudsonArt thankyou so much! I am very new to art and this is very helpful.

I love your videos! I learn a lot. The only constructive feedback I have is that you don’t need to talk constantly - some quiet moments to only observe technique with full attention without needing to absorb commentary would be so welcome!

Thanks...have thought about that myself..will be quicker to do the voice overs...
