    I really do appreciate your dedication. Not to throw shade to other UA-cam artist but I feel that most of them just make absurd videos just to have views & of course $. Example : I've seen someone who drew inside out and I understand that people are not going to draw good especially if they are beginners BUT she didn't even explain like what colors she use, how to blend, why she picked the colors , etc. the drawing was tiny . She just didn't put dedication and the video was very short.
    You explain EVERYTHING so well. You teach us how to blend, how to shade the colors, to layer first, etc. ❤️✨

  • @SysterYster
    @SysterYster 6 років тому +20

    Now I'm very confused. XD Some artists say I need to use textured paper to be able to add more layers, and you tell me I need to use smooth paper. Personally I've always liked smoother paper better, because it get's more smooth (obviously). But also, smooth paper has less tooth and you can add fewer layers. But it doesn't get a grainy look. Arrgh! I guess it's up to the artist and the style of drawing maybe? :)

    • @tddybear
      @tddybear 6 років тому

      Syster Yster I have the same issue, augh. Have you ended up figuring anything out about it, personally? I still don't know which to go with >_

    • @SysterYster
      @SysterYster 6 років тому

      Teddy Bear in Russian {Mishka} I really don't know. So far, the best I've found is fairly thick paper, such as you can both draw and paint on, but that's still smooth. But copy paper smooth and/or thin is really bad. Apart from that... I don't know. XD

    • @jraqn
      @jraqn 4 роки тому +3

      textured paper is good for wet media, charcoal, and pastels, while smoother paper is best for pencil drawing and marker. however, you still want some tooth on the paper pencils so the pigment has something to grab onto and you can add layers. for marker (things like copics) you want it as smooth as possible.

    • @AmyMichelleWiley
      @AmyMichelleWiley 3 роки тому +1

      I’m confused about this too. I guess you need medium tooth, more than marker paper but less than watercolor.

      @leviackerman5870 5 років тому +3

      Not necessarily. I use really crappy pencils but I can get really good drawings. It's more or less how you use the pencil. Expensive pencils are expensive because they are softer and easier to layer. I literally use arteza watercolour pencils and some WHSmith plus crayola. I'd say layer. Layer a lottttttt.

    Let me begin by thanking you for these videos and I recommend them to any aspiring artists. Now, I am doing a mixed media drawing of some friends of mine. I did the structure, and used watercolor bricks to lay down my base layer, and a few mid tones. So i am using color pencils for my detail work and was trying to determine about the hair. Lots of browns and oranges all in her hair, which I the referne is pulled up, so using this video to learn to proceed. But the watercolor paper I used does have a texture and thus far, had to do a lot of blending to fill in the texture. ( I picked this paper based on weight).

    • @TheArtGearGuide
      @TheArtGearGuide 7 років тому

      Oh I forgot to say how much I love the Strathmore Bristol Plate 500 Series it is absolutely amazing. I think it is the cotton in the paper that allows you to get loads of layers even though the surface is really smooth, I think the cotton absorbs the pigment allowing for the layers. I could be wrong but that's what it feels like to me when I use that paper. I just love Strathmore, their range of papers for artists is outstanding. Any way thank you so much for a wonderful tutorial and sorry for rambling on lol.
