[@soupbonep]

Your tutorials are so helpful! I'm a self-taught artist and this video has demystified the secrets of shading dips and bumps for me. I've gone through this by doing the drawing several times now and I keep getting better.

[@nancyfresquez1148]

Came across your channel and I have been doing your tutorial since I’ve been in hospital. I find this so peaceful and learning so much about drawing for the first time. you have inspired me to keep sketching.

[@TammieAnnCreative]

I love how you break things into simple shapes and steps. I need to work on shading techniques. I appreciate your time and effort in sharing.

[@RapidFireArt]

Thank you Tammie :)

[@kjpiper8398]

The body is like a map. If one knows the names of each part of the body and what it's functions is, they grow intuitive notice/recognition, ability to identify as to what that particular part is supposed to look like. One will be able to look, and actually see where it is supposed to be as a landmark Know its name, attachment points, and function is quote helpful. Think of the body like a map, with mountains, bends and valleys, strait pathways, wriggly zones, stopping and starting points, openings and closed areas. One can even use little dots to help gradually making their way to the next point by connecting them. Remember just like when we were very young children using "connect the dots in learning how to have more accurate sizing and shapes. I agree this gal here whom does tutorials I think is very good too 💜

[@gabrielalexandrelope]

I thought I already knew how to shade so I skipped the bit rapid art did shade but after I looked at hers hers was impressing and then I looked at mine damn did it all wrong😨

Going to keep going and hopefully will improve . Thanks again for sharing and showing us your skill. It amazes me.

[@hihi707hihi]

Haha this was so good! I am learning each one of your tutorials of body parts one by one. So far I have done eyes, mouth, nose and now ears! I will now start to learn how to draw hands as I have finished all of the body parts. You are amazing at showing how to draw + shade things step by step. Thank you for helping me improve my artwork, as I am currently not a great artist! I hope you have a lovely day and, once again, thank you for these amazing descriptive tutorials! xx
