Thanks for taking the time to view my video! I've been drawing with the pencil for many years erasing and fighting to obtain "perfect forms" not realizing things in life are not perfect. I've purchased many academic and technical books on "How to Draw" yet still not really feeling good about my work or (the main thing) having fun and enjoying drawing. After all, if it's not fun, you're not going to want to do it. Don't get me wrong, understanding how to develop 2 dimensional shapes such as the Square, Rectangle,Triangle, and Circle into 3 dimensional forms: Cubes, Cylinders, Pyramids/Cones, and Spheres by creating the illusion of light & shadow is a major thing of practice. Finally as I watched many UA-cam tutorials of the Old Masters and recent comic book artist actually drawing and noticed everyone has a different appproach or way of seeing things, that eventually comes out as their "style". As I stated on one of my other videos, with a pen since you know you can't erase, believe it or not it frees your mind of that and you focus more on the forming of images in your mind and, since the mind controls the body, "commanding" your hand to follow through in forming said image on the paper. (hope that's not too confusing). You must form a mental library to pull from which takes time. Look at and through everything and think about how the light & shadow create that which you are looking at, fill your mental library and oh yes, you gotta draw daily if possible even for a few minutes. It may sound corny and simple but I actually found out that it's true (I'll spin this slightly): You learn to draw and get better at drawing by drawing"!. This and other videos are condensed for entertainment; however, I have some in their original form, realtime around and hour or more on my channel. Hopefully I have given you a spark of inspiration to keep at it (try the Gel pen) sign and date your work and look back at it in 6 months or a year and you will inspire yourself. Help someone else with what you learn and keep drawing!!

Thank you, of course it's sped up (I don't actually draw that fast), however, it's fun to simply draw with a Gel Pen and not worry about making mistakes. Drawing with ink you are aware that you can't erase anyway so after awhile you actually become more relaxed and stuff just flows. You will find that if you continue drawing with pens it will begin to strengthen the hand to eye coordination and as that becomes less and less of a concern, the images within your imagination come forth easier and flow right through the pen. Hope this gives you an idea how I do it, and you can see some of my drawing videos in realtime on my channel. Thanks again for viewing, and good luck!

Thank you very much, toned paper drawing is a good bridge between drawing on white paper and painting. You put in the shadows AND the lights. Keep watching, thanks again.

Thanks!, Now check out Part II, and stay tuned for 3 & 4.

Thank you, I'm so glad you like it.

Thank you, I'm glad you like it, my wife did the original Dot to Dot drawing which can be seen on one of my other videos.

Thank you very much! The hour long video where I explain in real-time what I'm doing as I'm doing it also is on another of my videos.

You're welcome, stay tuned, much more to come!

Thank You, I appreciate you taking time to view it!

Thank YOU! I hope it wasn't too complicated, stay tuned, I've got plenty of information.
