I bought my first sketch book today, I'm 67. I am really enjoying your method and feel that I can draw if I follow along. Thank you so much !
In my high school art class, many decades ago, our teacher provided a neat lesson series on shading. He blacked out the windows, then had a strong light on the subject in the middle of the room. Then we were ONLY allowed to draw (charcoal) the shadows and shading, none of the highlights, no lines just shading. It was fun, challenging and really helped us understand shadows. But I wish he was as nice and calming as you are!
Thank you, Danny, for this amazing course on drawing. As a kid, I was exicted and happy to draw. I lost the feel while growing up. I draw quite good. 2 years back I got new sketchbook watching one of your videos. I made some drawings with a few random prompts. Again, I lost touch not knowing where to go from there. Watching this course, I now know where to go - "just draw whatever is in front of you." I drew a couple sitting in a park yesterday. I was so happy that to see the picture I created. I was so immersed while drawing. I felt like the kid who was thrilled to draw.
Thank you so much! 😇
This was great! Thank you
I love how you added filters at the beginning! It really “drew” me in. 😁 Thanks for all the insight on shading. I have been wondering how to do it.
Glad it was helpful!
I was looking for advice on shading just a few hours ago! Brilliant timing. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great tutorial!! You made that look so easy. I will be drawing/practicing this today.
Thank you.
Never thought about doing it with different colors.. Love this idea.. Thanks Danny
Great video! You really broke it down so I could see and understand how to look at the shadows. I find shadow shading intimidating but interesting. Thanks so much for this video. And I would love to see more on pointillism in future!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the great shadow advice you have shared in your video. I found it really useful.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for this amazing series. I am currently challenged with how much „background“ or „framing“ does my main motive need. Shall I add some grey, or colors, or can the motive be as is…. Such as: Is it enough to just have the drawing of the dog, or shall I add some background.? What is the effect of adding more or less? I am sure, this is a question of style and preference, but some orientation or discussion of the subject would be so valuable for me. Hard to find anything on this.
Great idea!
Thank you so much ❤
I’ve watch a few videos on cross hatch shading and your video had the best break down and explanation me for when and where to apply it. Before I was just trying cross hatching not sure where to put it or at what value to make things look more shaded. So thank you so much for this!!! It’s now clicking more easily in my brain for where to apply it and when to use it.
Awesome, thank you!

thanks for sharing
Finally after long days I am expecting how to draw series
I too draw my face. It's handy. I find the more I look , the more I see, and the detail and variations I find drive me crazy, there is no end to them. What I've learned here is to treat the whole face in a sweep. I start in a corner, deal with that, then move to another corner. The overall treatment might be easier on my nerves, more satisfying.
Thanks
Thank you!!
Good fundamentals video.
Glad you think so!
Oh wow that shading with the marker is the style I am trying to develop. Does it have a name is there any good examples of artists that do it. I use just two tones the paper and an ink brush pen, almost like a lithograph, i can’t seem to find much on the technique or artists I can do master studies on.
Question relating to shadows and watercolor for skin. Would underpainting with a pale blue, then adding the flesh tone on top of the dry blue render a smooth shading?
Some artists work that way by glazing over a tonal study.
@@SketchBookSkool ahhh, thanks!
i only know how to throw shade
