    Thank you very much for adding the values and edge control in the captions as well as not speeding the video up. This video showed me how to get passed "ugly" phase of the process right after putting in the division between the shadow and lit areas. My edge control is bad. Very helpful.

    very methodical approach in explaining creating the facial features from scratch. It is very important for beginners how to have precise proportions without using the square method. I am experimenting with creating monochrome black and white portraits. Have done many pencil sketches in the past but using black and white paints, brushes and medium are way different than working with pencils and erasers. It is always good to learn new techniques anyways. Thanks for the video.

    Great Skill, and a fine approach. I appreciated the discipline involved in reserving values until you moved on to the next, saving highlights and darkest darks for last. Brilliant.

    I mean, the paint will be too sticky ? I am alergic and I have heard about people painting without any medium at all, only strait out of the tube.
    My only experience is with watercolor.
    Second, becoming a patron will I have access to this full video in real time, without the speed up on the end ?
    Thank you so much . (sorry any english mistake)
