Your art style is so beautiful
Great tutorial Scottie. Love the dot approach. very well explained.

Thank you, Scottie! All of your tutorials are so helpful. My drawing of figures and faces has improved greatly. I love the use of the dots.
I love this section!
So awesome!!
Thank you and Yes as a beginner It was a great help to use the dot method. I'm really appreciating your style of teaching, and the helpful hints.
Thanks so much for all your videos. I have NEVER sketched or painted in my life. I am doing it now and copying photos doing my take on it. I am amazed at what I have able to produce watching your channel. Heartfelt gratitude. I like your dot system - it is easy for me to follow.
Recently discovered your channel. So helpful. I have bern strugling with faces in life drawing
I think your methods will be very useful. I'll have a try.
Love the way you teach so unassuming but full of good teaching.
Thank you

Glad you like them!
Thank you for the video,very useful to improve my sketches!
You are welcome!
such an amazing tutorial, thank you for sharing ☺☺☺
thanks Chantelle!🤗
Another really interesting and useful video, Scottie.
When you put put those dots in to show where a feature should be, I often think it looks too low or too high, but then you connect everything and it's spot on! Which just tells me that I haven't looked carefully enough at the proportions of a face. Another lesson in drawing what you actually see, not what you think you see.
Glad it was helpful!
so nice 😍
Thanks…
Interesting. I can't wait to check out the full tutorial, but this was really great as usual. Instructions are always doable, nothing too over the top and able to be replicated even by someone like me.
appreciate that feedback! all the best with the full tutorial 😊
This was amazing to watch . The way wach layer of paint builds on each other after drying is such a swell to watch 😚. Do you have pencil shading videos?
thanks! very old videos but I don't do them anymore😊
The distance between the 2 irises is the width of the mouth
Grear video Scottie. Thank you for all these videos you put out for free! Can i ask, when you create your circle, are you mimicing a loomis head circle? I.e. is the position of the circle on tour reference in the same place the same place as a Loomis head? Or is the circle placed more as an arbitrary location reference, just so you can make a comparative plot on your paper?
it’s roughly in the same place as the Loomis head but it’s more just there as a reference point for sketching the top of the head from observation. as the Loomis head method is a sphere with the sides cut off, it’s tricky to follow it exactly in different angles with dots so my method is more about approximation 👍🏼
The dots are so helpful!
What instrument are you using sir ?the name of instruments
❄💙.
How do you decide where to place your circle? Or is it an arbritrary decision and it's just something to start a structure?
yes with my style and method it’s just to help start the top round part of the head. Then you work down with main shapes. So it doesn’t need to be in a perfect position.
I like this system but if you work from life or you work from a digital reference, you can't place dots anywhere to maintain visualization. So, how would you apply your dot system to, say, a reference you have on your phone?
Under the edit menu on most phones you can draw on top of photos. It’s what I’ve just started to do as well.
I've been wondering this as well.
@@TheFunDadVideos you can add the dots to your image digitally using some editing app on your phone or computer
good question, Personally I still use the dots on the paper as a rough guide when sketching portraits that don’t have dots on the reference or from life. It’s like adding a circle in pencil for some structure before you sketch the whole head. It’s just to help get the big shapes right at the top of the head and then build them down from observation. You don’t really need to get the lines perfectly matching the dots, but as my tutorials are for beginners, I give extra support by pointing out how they can sketch each line in relation to the dots I put on the reference. Once beginners develop some basic skills they can move on to sketching faces without dots on the actual reference but still use the dots on the paper as they sketch. I hope that makes!
@@SketchingScottie just curious. I was taught how to draw long ago but have grandkids that are starting to learn. Figured I'd see if there was a quicker, easier way. Always learning ;-)
