I love your videos and I learn so much from you. I like your artistic adaption of the picture, yours is beautiful. Thank you for your taking the time to teach us. You are a favorite and so expiring.
I always had doubts on how to create misty atmospheres. This video was really helpful, thanks for posting!
You're very welcome!
Beautiful rendition.
Lovely drawing, what a way to wake up! A cup of Joe and inspiration! Know what I'm doing on a rainy day.
Amazing
This is one of my favorites. Reminds me of where our family cottage area when I was a child. Love Love Love your work and teachings. I am starting to do this type of pencil work now and I love it. Thank you for your help. I am 70 this year and still learning. Thanks again.

Perfect! I can imagine that just a bit color wash would make this a stunning piece of art. Thanks for sharing.
I had the same thought Izak, unfortunately I drew this one on cartridge paper so I might ruin it if i try, thanks for the comment, always appreciated:)
You have great videos and tutorials. I love the work you produce. These are helping me out quite a bit. I just recently picked up charcoal/graphite sketching after not drawing for 30 years. I find it relaxing. I have a lot to work on and videos like this help develop technique. You are the British Bob Ross. Keep it up!
Thanks Robert, its great to know these videos are helping, I find it relaxing too, British Bob Ross?.... I'm happy with that! :) Happy drawing!
That drawing can easily stand on its own, great demo, too as always. Thanks.
Thank you Larry, I did have thoughts of pencil and wash with this one, but you're right, its better as a drawing.
Não tem como descrever uma perfeição dessas. É simplesmente fantástico. Vôo na imaginação quando desenho tbm. Sou fã. Deus abençoe o Sr professor show 🙏
Bob Ross is so amazing. "You dont make mistakes, just happy little accidents"
:D Absolutely !!!
Wow !! How beautifully you did that. I wish i could do something like that some day...
Very Informative...✍
I've been up since 400am to watch your videos ...I quite enjoy learning all the tips and techniques your showing us... this is helping me more forward in tone and shading values which I struggle with....I see how important it is to use different pencils to achieve the tonal values but I'm building up my supplies slowly as I need time to save for supplies....since I have hand issues I cant use a knife for the scraping of k noor graphite pencil have you ever tried using sandpaper to scrape off the graphite on to paper to use? I know they have powder graphite but I'd prefer to buy a pencil like you use as I had a glitter accident🤦♀️ with my daughter yrs back that went every where and weeks till we all stop having glitter attached to us somewhere....lol thanks for any reply..many art blessing to you today....mikelle art mom✍👩🎨
Awesome! Thanks for that. I was waiting for mist! And yes, it's good to use your creative license. It allows for your own vision to shine through your work and for beginners like myself, it helps to discover and develop your own unique style. There are people who can draw photo-realistically and although I think they're amazingly talented, I don't see the point in that either. I tend to admire artists whose unique style makes their work recognisable ;)
Hi Iona, thanks for the great comment, I totally agree with what you said, I couldn't of said it better, I really admire photo realists too, its so incredible what they do, but I like to play around with the scene, adjust things, leave out the clutter, and enhance the areas I like to make them a better focal point etc.....I love artistic licence:)
As always, a superb demonstration of your artistic skills. Well done Smoothie. Thanks.
thanks very much Brian, kind of you to .say
Tried this today. Loved drawing it
That's great hear, thank you.
Another great drawing with great artistic techniques. I learn more and more techniques with every video you do. Thanks so much for taking your time to do these, they help me and others a lot. Great art.
You're welcome, I'm pleased to here the videos are helping you, thanks for the nice comment!
Learned something new and amazing from you..Thanks
I am sure you deserve more subscribers, but I do not know if you could answer all the comments as you do now.
You are a great artist and kind with the people and I like it too :)
I totally agree I deserve lots more subscribers :D just kidding haha, I always try to answer every comment, even if I get more subs and comments I will still try to answer all of them, I appreciate your kind and thoughtful comment Rafa, thank you:)
I have been watching all of your videos I am having a great time watching. You explain really well thank you for that
Thanks Cristal. that's kind of you to say.
Thank you
Thank you Fadi for taking the time to comment, much appreciated!
I thought you can't be any better because you are already perfect. You are just the master of the pencil. I was wrong, you are better and better every time I see a new video. How can it be? Excellent tutorial Smoothie. Thanks a lot. I guess I know what to do on weekend. Greetings
Haha, I'm certainly not perfect or a master, but I do really appreciate your kind words, I hope you have a go at this one, I wish you all the best! have a great weekend Jerzy:)
Applied some of the techniques to my own drawing and it came out great, thank you for sharing your knowledge!
You're very welcome, thanks for the comment.
I think You are the best artist
I don't have this kind of pencil... But I am trying with normal ones... I love pencil drawing more than painting..... U really are good artist...
I have been following your vids for a while now and got re- inspired by al of your work and started drawing agian (after many years of doing nothing), wish I could post some pictures here but anyway thanks for al your beautifull drawings and the lessons that go with them......

smoothie77 no worries smoothie. Love the mist effect. Definitely one to try
Definitely! don't know if you know or not, I have started to post the reference photos on my Patreon page for patrons to use for their own drawings, this ones on there:)
smoothie77 Aw excellent I'll take a look in a bit
Very nice ...photographic sketch
so inspiring
Thank you!
Always good!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for taking the time to view and comment Nil :)
I´m very impressed. Thank you :)
Thanks Roland!
Absolutely mesmerising, I just love what you do and I learn so much. Trying to become a patron for you but it always fails at the checkout I will keep at it however you are so worth it and I hope you achieve your goal so that we can all benefit from your talent x
Thank you Margaret, congratulations you are a patron! I just checked my patreon and you are there! :)
Very informative, amazig drawing and calm voice ..
Thank you so much 😀
You always offer everything that is beautiful
Thank you, I always try to:)
I am very grateful for your response to my comment. I want to ask you to ask if you can teach us the Mona Lisa painting if possible, I am thankful for you
Thanks for the suggestion, I'm the wrong person to ask for this, I don't really draw many portraits, I mainly just draw landscapes.
I am a painter and I tried to paint the Mona Lisa I drew but I encountered some difficulties and I looked for someone who has the ability to correct the mistakes that I faced but you were shown I drew your attention and it was frank and I thank you because you are a good person and loved
Thank you again for your kind words, there are lot of really good portrait artist on youtube that maybe able to help you with the difficulties you have with drawing the Mona Lisa, have a look at Darrel tank's channel , he's brilliant with portraits.
Thank you so much for this helpfull video. Greatings from Germany
You're welcome David, Greetings for the UK :)
wwwooowww It's so beautiful
Thank you, much appreciated!
Thanks for your nice response
You're welcome!
good stuff !
Thanks very much Glen:)
great job
Thanks Daniel, kind of you to say.
smoothie77 inspired me to create something
Its like mediating watching you draw as you explain every step.❤️❤️Can we get the reference image so we can follow every step with you...
Thanks Smoothie. I'll check it out.
Good technics U r greate
I want to do this drawing
I haven't got the dark pencils, bar a prisma black. I have set squares etc and derwent pencils, stumps...I want to do this!
At last I feel my drawing skills have improved sufficiently to do this one, I mean drawing the outline as a start. Thinking of the thirds rule I think I can manage the spacing so that it looks right in proportion lol this is for the near future perhaps when I've finished the haywain I can test out the new paper lol
Once you've finished the Hay wain this one will seem like a piece of cake lol
smoothie77 lol I have loved the haywain , it has been great to be so challenged, the issue of escaping graphite hasn't diminished my joy at doing it. Thomas came in today and I actually asked him if there could be some sort of electro magnetic field which was taking the graphite from my paper, he said no mum it's more likely that it's the paper you are using that's doing it. This has had it's funny moments I hope I haven't stressed you out in the process
So beautiful!! Thanks for inviting us into your world... I have found the Color Previewers you suggested very helpful for watercolor. Do you know if there is anything like it for graphite? I'm afraid of the dark 😳
Thank you, its my pleasure, I have used the grey color previewer to assess tones in graphite, it works well, don't be afraid of the dark:)
love your work and to me it was really enjoyable to watch,,also thx for explaining what pencils and paper you were using,,cheers
Jon what you call as the large Derwent pen eraser is the electric eraser of Derwent?
Another wonderful drawing! I noticed in this drawing you are using a board to draw on; at other times I see you leave your paper in a sketchbook; are you working with different surfaces under your drawings? Is this intentional, or is it simply that the paper was sent to you unbound? Thanks again for sharing your amazing talent
Thanks Christopher, yes, I'm working with different types of paper, if I use a loose sheet I fix it to a board, if the sheet is in a sketchbook I generally leave it in there, in fact the board that I use in this demo was the cardboard backing from an empty A4 sketchbook.
Wenn ich sowas könnte, hätte ich garnicht mehr aufgehört zu zeichnen
Thanks for your real time demo drawing that I can learn a lot. However it would be more ideal if you can either speak louder or enhance your recording volumn so that your voice can be heard easier. Look forward to viewing more of your pencil drawing videos.
As a beginner, I am looking at some recent photographs of winter forest scenes and am wondering how to show the snow in a densely wooded scene. Much underbrush and lots of snow. Is there a site or video you can recommend?
Love your work, it's amazing. Is your dust brush made of goat hair? Or can you recommend a similar brush.
Thanks pearl, any soft brush will work , even a soft nylon brush will be ok, just use less pressure if the brush is not quite so soft.
Thank you so much for replying so fast. I was a big bob Ross fan also 👍☺
No problem:) yes, I used to watch Bob Ross for hours, great artist!
Hi Smoothie, lovely as always. I've never tried the Stedlier brand. I usually use Derwent. I made a purchase after Christmas, Creatacolr went on sale at a great price so I bought a set. I don't really like them. So... how does the Stedlier compare to the Derwent?
Hi Monica, the Staedtler lumograph black are mixed with carbon, so they are very dark and I couldn't compare then to the Derwents as they aren't regular graphite, although the regular Staedtler lumograph are all graphite and compare well to the Derwents, they are very similar, Staedtler make really good tried and trusted pencils, I even find the cheaper Steadtler Noris and Tradition to be excellent too, but the lumograph range are the professional pencils, definitely worth investing in a set.
beautiful !!! just beautiful !! link for the reference ? i think we should try the same and then learn the process.
Thanks Tarique, I have now started to post the reference photos on my Patreon page, for Patrons only, very sorry, but it would be a conflict of interests if I were to post links on here. For $1 per month you can access the reference photos to my demos, plus lots more.
Hi Smoothie77 ... have followed your vids for sometime... and decided to subscribe... to get ask a question... if you are mounting your graphite drawing in a glass frame... do you recommend mat board layers (at least two levels) and would you spray clear acrylic (non-shine type) on your drawing to prevent smudging ?? You may have mentioned this some else but I did not search for it. Thanks. Sam
Hi Charles, thanks for subscribing, I would always recommend using a mat when framing a graphite drawing, its best if the glass doesn't press on the drawing, Its not really necessary to spray the drawing if its protected in a frame.
Do you use a paint brush to blend the graphite? If so what kind?
Would the dealer Rowney smooth heavy weight that you use work for this. To be honest I'm afraid to start another one with the issues I had recently, I know it was probably me doing something but just in case
Beautiful drawing. Any chance you could post the photo reference?
Hi Larry, all reference photos from my youtube demos are all now being uploaded to my Patreon page for patreons only, it would be a conflict of interests if I were to post them on G+, sorry about that, For just $1 per month you can get all the photos and patreon content over on my Patreon page.
in that case I will come a Patron!
Thank you Larry, that's greatly appreciated!
Hi smoothie another fine video! I notice your collection of tools is literally identical to mine! :D Do you use fine sandpaper as well to make your graphite powder?
One question I've never asked you regards to your videos....how do you set your camera up so nicely for a great shoot?
I have got a sanding block but never use it for graphite powder, the camera set up is simply a tripod standing on the table with the center pole turned upside down, with the camera pointing down.
smoothie77 Cheers my friend! I appreciate your advice👌 Do you have your own site for all these wonderful drawings? 😀
You're welcome, not got a website as yet, but its something I intend to do soon, I'm working on a lot of things at the moment, its a case of finding time to fit them all in :)
smoothie77 Excellent!😊👌
I can't believe 15 individuals disliked this. I wish i could draw this 'badly'.
I have just become a member, how can I find the reference photo?
Hi Anna, unfortunately this drawing was done before I started posted lessons on Patreon, but to navigate patreon easily the first video on your home called " how to navigate patreon" will help you to find other projects you maybe interested in, if you need anymore help pleased message me on patreon and I'll be more than happy to help you.
Did you use any charcoal pencils on this? Excellent btw.
No charcoal
smoothie77 thank you!
Hi smoothie I don't seem to be able to join you r patreon channels.
Hi Cathy, can you tell what problems your having so I can help you...
Smoothie what size is the tombow eraser pen please?
Hi, its the 2.3mm eraser.
Thanks Smoothie
Hi smoothie. How do I know if I have subscribed .
Did you click the subscribe button under the video, make sure you click that and it will say "subscribed" as opposed to "subscribe"
I lose my drawing skills😔 i need help
Love your work, but I can hardly hear you...
I STILL get nervous watching these videos, after starting drawing some 50 year a go!?? “How does he/she do that !? “ and I’ve just learned
The answer: it’s NOT how they do it that matters, it’s HOW you do it! No 2 artists are the same, see the same ,work the same way etc. the best
Way 2 learn is just do it DON’T think about it. Just take the idea not how he/she does it because all you do is Frighten the hell out of yourself.
Amazing
Thanks Kyle!
Your welcome I've watched quite alot of your videos and always walk away with inspiration and new found knowledge. Would it be okay if i emailed some of my most recent drawings id like to get your opinion?
Sure Kyle, go ahead .
