fabulous! in my drawing class today we were drawing drapery, but with no instruction. Something inside said, look for someone who can show you how. Thank you so so so much! I am going to have at the assignment again!
An Awesome Tutorial which is so explanatory and very informative..... But still someone disliked it...... POV - Shaking my head It was very helpful ma'am We are grateful
I LOVE this video!!! Subscribing today. You have transformed a mystery into enlightenment. This will be my first charcoal drawing. Blessings on your head.
this is so helpful! i just came back from an art class and i am doing my final and the drapery was so difficult today more than usual. I dont know maybe if its because im trying to get 13 object thats in the still life that is sitting on top of the drapery but this video definitely helped thanks
Hi, could you perhaps give me some tips about drawing with charcoal when being left handed pls? I always stain everything and is hard to find a comfortable position because I tend to curl my wrist. Thank u for the video It helped me by the way
Hi Yuuki, I am happy to hear that the video helped you! Since I am not left handed, it is difficult for me to imagine what you are going through. It sounds like the side of your hand is smearing your drawing. This happens to right handed people too. Over the years, I have trained myself to hold my hand away from the paper, so that is what I suggest to my students. Try gripping your pencil or charcoal with an overhand grip and draw by moving your arm (shoulder/elbow/wrist) and not your fingers. (Keep in mind that relearning how to hold your drawing tool is similar to breaking any habit -- it will take time and commitment). Please let me know if this helps!
@@carlafalb2199 Have you ever done a monochromatic color pastel drawing on colored paper as a value exercise in lieu of using compressed/vine (black charcoal)? I haven't tried this yet, but was thinking of having students do this towards the end of class after they have done a few charcoal drawings just to get a little color in.
@@MShellEdu Hello! I know students always ask to use color, but it is important that they master value first. A monochromatic pastel drawing on colored paper sounds fun and you would still be working with values so that could work. You also could try working on a mid-tone paper, then using white charcoal for lights and black charcoal for the shadows. I also like using conte crayons in black, white, sanguine on toned paper (they are similar to monochromatic pastels, but harder). They are an extra expense for the students though, and I always try to keep the cost of supplies down.

Why the dark outline on the far left side? The reference appears to be almost imperceptible on this side but I'm having trouble doing that
It’s not an outline, but more of an invented shadow to give the cloth more volume on the left side.
This is great!
Thank you for letting me know!

Thanks 😎😘😊😂🙏💕😌🙏
amazing, I really like your video, but if it was at real speed it would be easier to get a better result
I am happy to hear that you like my video. If you want to watch the video in real time, you can slow it down to .5 on the settings.
