In this series, we use the grid technique to lay out the subject before developing the textures and details through careful pencil applications with four different grades of graphite.

I just Love Elephants and I think All People should care for them Deeply and Safe them ALL

[@ChrisR_68]

I agree & all animals that are in danger of disappearing if we can't turn it around. I'm a member of Born Free and the work BF do is brilliant but there is more to do, always more to do. Elephants are such intelligent animals who live within families of their own like we do, like dolphins do and many more.
When are humans going to stop killing these precious animals as they have as much right as we have to live on this planet.

Holandés desde España tus vídeos tutoriales me gustan mucho, me parecen muy buenos . La pena es que yo no entiendo inglés y no me entero de tus explicaciones. Un abrazo

No soy holandés soy español desde España

[@lancejames9228]

[@ballybunion9]

Very impressive. But what would be even more impressive would be drawing a pencil with an elephant.

[@thevirtualinstructor]

Haha! Yes, that would be impressive!

I am new at drawing even if childlike and am looking at taking your courses but where do I start what do I take to start the drawing one or coloured pencils, as you can see I am new and lucky I can put pencil to paper

[@thevirtualinstructor]

Hi Watcher,
Thanks for your comments. The best place to start is either with The Secrets to Drawing or 25 Days to Better Drawings. Both are great for beginners.

[@donnadiesburg7451]

I don't like time lapse. This is good!

[@ChrisR_68]

I'm not a big fan but what I do is to look at one part pause it so you can see the outline you want to see or shading parts etc whilst writing this ive paused on it & can see most of outline he has done. I'm one of Matts members, its certainly worth joining as the amount of lessons is Amazing, he has a growing number of courses and he also does live lessons and if you miss them it fine as he records them all, and more.
