    In this video, we draw a cupcake with pastels and pastel pencils on PastelMat paper in one sitting. The entire process of drawing and refining is included so that you can draw along and create your own version of the drawing. Start with a sketch of the contour lines before layering pastel applications.

    I have found it difficult to find a tutorial that shows the whole process of a topic. This type of video is like going to an art class. I find that this tutorial has taught me exactly how to use pastels in a drawing. The reason for a tutorial is to teach the whole lesson not just bits and pieces. I enjoyed your tutorial and would like to see more of these lessons. You are a great teacher and I have learned so much from your videos.

    The best Part with that kind of drawing is when you are done, and finally eat your model (given it's a real one and not just a photo) 😁

    I've been drawing with graphite and charcoal for years but I recently wanted to try colored pencils and pastels. This video popped up and I subscribed immediately! So many "how to" videos just show 10 minutes explaining briefly and showing stages of a drawing. I absolutely love the long real-time follow along with commentary style of this video. I'm excited to start, thank you for your videos and channel!

    I like both formats. The back and forth between you and the other artist is fun. I believe I would be more likely to draw along with this one. I don't know why.

  • @amygermaine6636

    I love this format. For me, the real time video is helpful in encouraging me to sit down for a similar length session instead of immediately thinking that I can't do this at all. I also love the pertinent info that you give along the way.

    • @loati94
      @loati94 Před 11 měsíci

      Yes, for me is thinking things take way less time than they actually take and then I rush and get not so great results. Real life demos are very useful. That's why I love getting sketchy so much

    Outstanding video. I simply can not draw. I practiced for years every day and took classes. I watched and followed videos and finally gave up!
    Your videos are fantastic, and enjoy your personality.
    I saw a comment about the background music. I love music and interestingly this music stressed me😂 It is mysterious.

    I just came across this vid in my feed. The cupcake is beautifully rendered. and you make it so easy to follow along with you. I was a bit baffled, however, by your choice of the gray shading on the icing. where I would have chosen more towards subtle yellow/browns. Of course it's an artist's choice and who cares?...it's so well done. Thanks.

  • @lesleyevans6938
    @lesleyevans6938 Před 11 měsíci

    Yes please. Have enjoyed this video very much. I like to try to draw along with you but I am not as precise as you as I like to keep it sketchy as I have no intention of trying to get it to look as realistic as you

  • @usfgirl07
    @usfgirl07 Před 11 měsíci

    This is the news I needed today because I’m sick and miserable with on off season flu. I’m really excited for this format because I struggle the most with being patient and taking the time to develop the painting I want to make. So I think this will keep me focused so I can develop the habits I need to improve. Thank you so much! Also, I don’t want gettin’ sketchy to go away, so I vote for both formats.

    I specifically seek out real time tutorials. I enjoy not being rushed and having to hit pause all the time. Although, I have painted along with gettin sketchy. I never miss an episode. There is much to be said for both. If I have to chose I’ll go with real time. I enjoy painting along with friends.

    I lost my mother who was an art teacher, then its like it went to me, since I used to draw while I was in school and loved it. Then lost my wife in January so drawing gets my mind off things. You have been a big influence and inspiration for me, I hear I'm getting a lot better, I guess I am my only critic. Even though I know they're just being nice but thank you

    Love watching your process with explanation. Does your pastel board have a sanded surface? You seem to be able to get a lot of layers. I really am learning a lot from your instructions. Thanks so much!

    • @linzebrandon
      @linzebrandon Před 11 měsíci

      Matt is using PastelMat paper. It is made by Claire Fontaine. He didn't need to do anything to the surface since it is manufactured with this surface. It is really a unique, but the best surface for pastel work. It is really expensive in my country, but worth it. Enjoy!

    I would have thought the shadows would have been shades of tan or brown to compliment the creamy color of the photo.

    • @thevirtualinstructor
      @thevirtualinstructor  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Hi, the background was changed to blue. Cast shadows are typically darker values of the color of the surface in which they appear. They have nothing to do with the color of the object that is casting them.

      @@thevirtualinstructor I was speaking of the cupcake icing. I liked the blue background and the shadows. I just would have probably used shades of cream to brown for shading on the icing part. Either way, the outcome was awesome.
