The most worthwhile 22 mins I've spent in my life.
Wow. Can there be a better comment than this?😀. Thanks Marie
One of the best tip someone gave me many years ago is "always have your hand inside the curve when you draw one."
Sounds like a helpful tip to me. Thanks for sharing 😀
Great video and great channel, thank you very much 🙏😊
Thanks and welcome😀
Maestro! I have writing all your recommendations on my journal so I can have then present. I also want to congratulate you for incredible mastery of drawing, few people on earth achieve such ability, one of the best skills since cave painting.
Today with the computers people forget the exceptional capacity of manual control and dedicated observation. Thanks.
Thanks again …… Phew such a lot to think about & practice, when drawing lines (marks) super tutorial again. So inspiring and encouraging too. ….. I’m off to get my pen and paper now. Jim uk
Great to hear that it resonates with you. Have fun using it. 😀
Stephen, you are a well-organized thinker and teacher. I really appreciate your generosity in giving us so much insight into your skills and practice!
So nice of you to say this. Please help me out and let your friends know about my channel. All the best with your drawing 😀
you are a professional. I cant believe these videos are free. Thanks for sharing your skills with all of us❤️😊
Thanks Danny. I really appreciate your kind words 😔
It's been said, but thanks so much for these videos. Your drawing content is exceptional.
Thanks Jay. I appreciate your saying so. 😀
Thanks for showing details of pen and ink working. sometimes it refreshing to listen all details you are using but some of them forgotten and after watching your video reminds me.
Great to hear it works so well for you. Thanks for sharing 😀
An excellent tutorial on drawing various types of lines and tips on how to make them look more natural and effective in a sketch. Thanks very much Stephen for explaining in such detail this important skill.
The marks we’re able to make are the tools of our craft. They give us options. Glad it so helpful to you Asterix😀
Just came across this video and found it very helpful. Thanks 😊
Always great to hear. I hope you check out some of my other videos.
@@stephentraversart I’ve been watching lots of your videos lately. They are all so good. I have been sketching way more and I’ve seen improvement. Thanks 😊
your channel is such a gem!
Thanks Jahmani. I hope you tell your friends as well. 😀. All the best with your drawing 😀
@@stephentraversart Oh definitely, and thank you!
Great video! Thinking in terms of making marks rather than lines has been a game changer for me when trying to communicate the overall effect I'm looking for. Thanks for your dedication and teaching, Stephen- your videos have been absolutely integral in allowing me to develop my own style as an artist!
That’s brilliant to hear. And thanks for your kind and encouraging words as well. Much appreciated 😀
This is the lesson that I’ve been waiting for, Stephen.
I learned a lot… thank you! 🙏🏻
Glad to hear it!😀
Thanks alot! I'm going to look over them a couple of times, very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!😀
Thanks for the review Stephen. Very helpful.
Thanks Paul. Glad it was helpful!
great video!
Thanks Louisea
Love this💕💕 request: more statues please! I am trying to find your statue lessons and having trouble! Is there a play list? I absolutely love how you draw statues! I just spent my morning hour trying to draw our local civil war dude and it’s so hard! Base angles🤪 but it has so much potential with the strong grays and early morning light and the tree behind. Very nostalgic and heroic. Please help with proportion and statues, pedestals in two point perspective!
This is an early video of mine, but it’s on topic. I don’t really draw statues as main subjects though, just as background support. 😀

Super helpful for me. Thank you!
You're welcome!😀
Excellent!
Thanks 😀
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video! I wrote down all you said but there's no 23rd point! Point 22 is about hatching in separate lines, not zig-zags and Point 24 is about hatching starting at the most important edge... Did I miss something?
I expect I missed it. Or perhaps I felt I’d already covered the point in an earlier one and skipped it. But it was in my (now lost) notes originally 😀
Well, anyway, the tips are very helpful...🙂 Thank you!@@stephentraversart
Thanks for the tips! If only I can remember to use the small gap for line continuation... Your point (#16 ?) about 'drawing lines with rulers' applies as well to almost all of the drawing 'aids' available in digital art (at least in the software I use) - they all look very different from regular strokes - it takes more work to make a line, curve or flood-fill from a tool fit into the rest of the drawing .than to do the strokes to begin with (what seems to save time in this case just eats it away or if you leave it, it makes the drawing look uneven.)
My pleasure. Yes, it’s an effective tip if we can remember it. 😀
i know i should draw from my shoulder, but if its a lots of lines, my shoulder tends to dislocate lol 😆 so drawing from the wrist it is for me😛
If the lines are quite short, I draw from my elbow, as it’s more practical and quicker and gives the same benefit as from the shoulder for longer lines. But I lock my wrist into place. Of course, if you’re happy with your straight lines, there’s no problem 😀
hello sir, do you have any tutorials on understanding when do hatching or how to understanding the light source to do hatching
I have a hatching playlist if you’re interested. Here’s a link.
