    Jono dry, this is easily the best tutorial for drawing eyes I have ever seen! As a person who isn't a complete beginner, I can understand where you're coming from.
    I am happy watching your videos because not only are you, in my opinion, the best graphite artist I have personally seen, you are the most informative artist to ever draw at this level of skill and explain it in detail that I know of. I am constantly beyond amazed at what you do. Thank you for posting such videos. I personally work in colored pencil, and to a degree, I can kind of apply what you teach here, even if your medium is different!

    the tough part is the discussion, not the drawing process itself. I am also learning new technologies and a few friends have suggested I should create vlogs, but how could an insane introvert (like me) talk in front of a camera?

    Great technique and explanation thank you very much. A little something that I have learned is that as long as you can enjoy your work and it keeps a roof over your head that that is the best job there is. Being modest keeps the real friends there and the joy of sketching or making art and being able to teach it is a true gift. I love to paint likewise and it is something that makes me happy too. I look forward to your future videos and I will definitely put into practice some of those suggestions.

    Jono Dry, I can't thank you enough for creating this video. As someone who is working hard to become a successful artist, and as a person, I deeply admire the surreal and mind-numbingly realistic masterpieces you put out into the world. I can't yet imagine how hard you must work (especially to be self-taught!), and what kind of work ethic you must have. You deciding to take time out of your day to share your wisdom to anyone willing to listen is something anyone should be proud of. I would be so grateful if you'd continue to make these kinds of videos. I also found the Building a Career in Art videos very useful. Thank you so much for your kindness! I can't wait to follow this tutorial myself and learn from the very best. Please continue working hard, Jono. You can go even further.
    Sincerely,
    A devoted Fanatic
