I wonder if your students realise how amazing their talent is and how many people get to see it because of this channel. I'm from the Netherlands and I bet there are people watching from many other countries aswell. Keep the channel going!
MATT ANF ALEXA ARE MY FAV ARTISTS ON TOP OF THAT THEIR DATING AHHHH, I hope they are still dating because they feed off each others art work and they are just so amazing
I feel like artists see the world in a very intense way, as compared to a normal person. I don't mean that negatively, but we draw inspiration from everyday things that could be as simple as visiting the park or putting our hair up in a new way and personally I think that's beautiful.
This is an awesome video, Matt! So glad to see more of these! Alexa has super talent and gosh, she makes me want to draw like a madman! Thank you, Alexa for sharing and for mentioning LookBook.com! I looked it up minutes ago and I'm already in love with it! To the Sketchbook-mobile!!! :D
Aside from that, if I may interject, using colored pencil also help the drawing stand out more if you decide to go over it in ink or pencil and you can tweak the drawing a bit because the lines are lighter than with a normal pencil. Col-Erase pencils are twice as awesome because normal color pencils don't erase, so you kinda get the best of both worlds! :3
Watching these videos, and seeing just how much these people draw, annoys me greatly. I love drawing, but I just..can't think of things to draw. I draw maybe once a week at most, just because I lack ideas. Also I like the idea of using lookbook for practice reference. Checked out the site and there's a lot of good stuff there you could draw for practice.
I polish off about a sketchbook a month, but some people take a year or more to finish theirs and are way better than me (my dad for example)... How much you draw shouldn't be important as long as you enjoy it!
I hope you don't mind if I ask what city you reside in? I'd like to be able to visit in person some day and check out your students' work, and watch their process.
Of course a lot of them draw similar to each other. A lot of them are in the same classes, with the same teachers. And from the looks of it in these videos, they tend to hang out with each other a lot, and look at each other's art. Hang around the same artists for long enough, you're going to pick things up from them.
her style is REALLY inspirational, woah. keep up the great work alexa!
I love these videos! whenever I get art block, I watch a few and it helps! and I love seeing all the different styles

The short answer is the col-erase is fun. Yes the pencil acts completely different than normal graphite. It smudges less.
stop! what an incredible sketch book. That might be one of the best you shot so far Matt.
Thanks for sharing!

Do you have any students that aren't so talented? Even her handwriting is beautiful!

She reminds of Dana. Her drawing and style is similar in a way. Not only that, she and her voice and a lot more has a big resemblance with Dana.
Very nice. Thank you for sharing.

i get the same feeling i want to draw all the time i just cant think of anything to draw half the time txfnero
I used to have the same problem. I found it easier to draw things out of my imagination after drawing a ton of reference photos.
Alexa I like how you teas the viewers eyes.
Awesome work Alexa ! And you're cutie ! :3
awesome sketchbook :D
I'm such a messy sketcher! Hopefully one day I can draw from the mind tidy!
Epic! But I have a question, why do your students sometimes draw with color instead normal pencil? Does it smudge less?
matt, what kind of color pencil does your students use when drawing/sketching on their sketchbooks? greetings from ecuador!!
Hurrah for mentioning me (Jenn from Penn) ha, liking this video hard.
Repetition is the Mother of Skill and Failure is the Mother of Success So Always Practice and You Will Always Succeed.
Does Alexa have a tumblr or art blog? If so can you post it please?!
does she have a deviantart or tumblr? I would like to see more :)
16:30 girl with a deer, is she Laura Makabresku? Btw, lovely sketchbook :)
love this video! :D
what type of color do you use!!!
I hope you don't mind if I ask what city you reside in? I'd like to be able to visit in person some day and check out your students' work, and watch their process.
they're in New York
feels so good that i have more skill at drawings and i don't even go to art school :^)
Does she have tumblr or some sort of art blog??
pretty video
so cool *-*
who else tries to copy dis stuff? i love to watch these videos over and over again
I don't COPY it, but I do like to watch the videos a lot just to get ideas, or just to get me in the mood to draw.
A good artist copies a great artist steals -Pablo Picasso
nice
Alexa is beautiful *__*

YESSSS!!!!!
I hate how young these guys are. I'm older than them and these videos make me feel like I have a loooong way to go
+PaperBuddy Specifically for you: /watch?v=SlCRfTmBSGs
i just turned 13 and i have the same problem! :/
Safiyyah Conway relax, you're still young. i'm over 20 lol >
PaperBuddy
i know, thats the problem...................
What brand is the sketchbook
From what I seen the majority of the students use the Canson Field Sketchbook, because it has the cover and comes either hardbound or spiral.
samusai .aka IsTheMedia I've seen a few use the Moleskine sketchbooks too.
That's true. But it looks like the canson one in this video that they are using since I thought I saw the logo imprint on the back of it.
Does she have a Tumblr?
omg super gay centaur is my favourite, SO MAJESTIC
You need to invest in a tripod Matt!
lol
nice

How old are you?
Awe some

I want to be your student :/ how can you see my work ? I need your comment hhahahh , you make me positive
Lost for words...........

You guys draw in the same style as each other it's barely recognizable. Please find a better hobby
Hey if you don't like art than do watch the god damn video
Of course a lot of them draw similar to each other. A lot of them are in the same classes, with the same teachers.

They're friends. If an artist see qualities in someone else's art that they like, they tend to emulate it and add it to their style.
