    Great video. Ballpoint is a great medium that only a small corner of the art community seems to use, and no one talks about. Keeping a scrap paper nearby is a great tip. I can be used for working out a stroke or, more importantly, blotting your pen so you don't blob ink on your drawing.
    My favourite ballpoint to use is the Bic Cristal. It has a good ink flow, few skips and I can shade and draw lines that are barely visible to very dark. Pencil and Ballpoint are my two favourite drawing tools. My every day kit is a kneaded eraser, my pencil, a 4-in-1 pen with black, red, green and blue and a 4-in-1 with orange, yellow, purple and pink. These are always in my pocket.

    I'm starting to sketch with ballpoint pens,and these tips were super helpful..I never wanted to draw with a pen because you can't erase any mistakes,but I've found with a pen you can sketch over the mistake and make it look like it's part of the sketch 😊

  • @vazzaroth
    @vazzaroth Před 6 měsíci

    I, too, have found that ink seems to be my preferred medium BECAUSE of the 'finality' of the strokes that used to turn me off from experimenting with it. I actually love the feeling and idea of always being locked in with 'moving forward' no matter what you end up with on the paper. Plus I find that I love the b&w (or other two-tone) contrast more than anything. Color confuses and distracts me in creating so much. Dealing with linework primarily + scribble techniques has been such a wonderful time now that I've dove in.
    I definitely learned to practice things on scratch paper though, when I have a deliberate idea to practice on first.

    I've been experimenting with a pencil and a black Flair pen. Talk about unforgiving! But you can use pressure with the pen to lighten and darken, to an extent. This helps a lot to get over the hesitancy many of us artists feel.

    The more videos I watch on your channel, the more clearly I can see these old-fashioned "scissors in my head": Drawing with ballpoint pens: We can't do that. Mix watercolor and gouache? Forbidden. Oil over acrylic? The old masters didn't do that either. And so on. I realize that I - as a self-taught painter - have imposed a completely obsolete rigor on myself. Thank you for your refreshing way, which hopefully gradually frees me from my thinking prohibitions!
