QOTD: What other videos would you like to see about charcoal? What charcoal topics/ techniques do you want me to talk about? 💕
Hair, in charcoal please (if you haven't already 😊). Also, have you used a carbon pencil before? Thoughts on them? Love your channel, and thanks!😊👍✏️
I have trouble blending charcoal. Tips?
What do you use to seal your artwork so it won't transfer? Can you use the same stuff for different types of medium (pencil, watercolor, pastel, charcoal etc)? Thanks :)
What kind of paper did you use please?
On the topic of charcoal, I'm curious if you use a separate tortillions/brushes and eraser for charcoal vs graphite? Is there concern about the dark charcoal accidentally transferring to a future graphite project from those tools? How do you brush off all the little bits of charcoal? Blow them off, or brush them with a drafting brush? Would there be any value in using a workable fixative throughout the project, to protect from ruining the parts that you are already happy with, and then continuing on top of the preserved layer? Is charcoal as easily erased as graphite? Is there powdered charcoal to use in art, as there is graphite powder? Would there be any value/interest to starting a project with a different medium, say neutral tones of watercolor, then adding the dark values with charcoal, similar to how some mix watercolor with colored pencil? Also, do all of the same rules apply to white charcoal? I would love to see white charcoal on black paper. So many questions! lol Thanks for all of the great videos!
charcoal is one of my favorites... it has the diamond potential for every drawing you make... you know a diamond is nothing more then a piece of charcoal that handled stress exceptionally well.
This got 144 likes damn that's more than the views on some of my videos

Am I the only one who enjoys the mess? I love looking at my hands and seeing them covered in charcoal. I love using my hands on the paper, I love really immersing myself. But I guess that's just me 😅
Nope u're not the only one 😌😌
I agree!
Agreed!
One messy pup right here
Same
When I attended university I was first introduced to charcoal by my instructor through vine charcoal. This messy problem really turned me off of the medium. Imagine my surprise and delight when I figured out there are charcoal pencils! Such a much more enjoyable experience. You make some fantastic suggestions around this issue in this video. Very well done!
I adore both types, wood and pencils, sometimes I combine them into a single drawing
Don't forget about Q-tips or "cotton buds" regular and precision tip for blending.

This has really helped, I've picked up charcoal recently and drawing in general for the first time since I was a teen.

Charcoal was always a fear for me . But this change my mind thank you mam 😊😊😊
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
love charcoal, its not the mess that bugs me its the breakage that bugs me :p
the drawing is gorgeous :)
Breakage?
@@monicas1646 charcoal is so fragile, it breaks easily 🙂
But when I use the pencils it doesn’t
Only if you drop the pencil
the sticks break it seems if you just look at them wrong 😛
Kirstey, just stopping by to say thanks for all the videos. Over a few years I’ve practiced what you teach. You even critiqued one of my drawings, and this helped me so much. Today I’m getting loads of applause for a drawing I have just finished. Thanks!!
Can you please give us advice on artist burnout and how to deal with it? Also on how to push past the dark moods and darker times in a person's life.
Hmmm, sounds like a good idea.
I have always resorted to keeping busy and SMILE when your sad, even when you do not want to, SMILE! If you can not force yourself to draw or paint go do something you enjoy, but stay BUSY!
Talk to God about it 😉
I don't think anyone should advise about that over the internet. You need to speak to a qualified therapist or doctor. Good luck x
@@Lulusnotreadyforthis What are you on about? 😂😂😂 I mean gloomy spells or days when we are not passionate about our craft.
in my country don't have this charcoal pencil..i gotta burn some woods to get charcoal and applied it to my bursh to make a tone.It much easier than using graphite to make a tone.i got this idea (using charcoal) after watching your previous videos.Your videos make me understand more about the technique and it much easier for me as a beginner.Thank you kirsty.your art and your videos are awesome!
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
I have started sketching portraits after seeing your videos, love the way you sketch, really inspiring 😊
This is a really well made video, it's clear, sharp visuals with good displays that are timed perfectly with the voice over. Love the production quality thank you Kirsty.
Thank you Kirsty. I love how you work and talk at the same time. ☺️❤️
Since lockdown. I've loved getting back into art and trying new mediums. I'd never tried water colours until watching one of your videos and now I'm looking forward to trying charcoal. Great channel 👍
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
Wonderful, as always, Kristy! Thank you thank you thank you! ANY and ALL videos covering anything charcoal are greatly appreciated! 🤗🤗🤗
Charcoal is my favorite medium too. I just love the look and how many shades from light to super dark. I never used my fingers.. Thinking of doing that makes me cringe 😖 I've always used the different size blending sticks, but I never thought to use paint brushes.. So I'll definitely try those at some point.
Thank you for another great video and great help. This drawing of yours is amazing. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful talent and experience with us
You are always so helpful. So articulate. And just a really good teacher.
I would love to use charcoal but it gives me such severe goosebumps/chills/shivers and makes every strand of hair in my body stand up like a great stallion.
Your work is outstanding.
I would love to see tips on backgrounds with all mediums. Backgrounds can make or break a painting.
Could you do a video on sealers for the different mediums you use. Your art work is wonderful. Your teaching is wonderful. Thank you so much. The best to you.
I love working with charcoal. Make-up sponges and applicators also work for blending as well as Q-Tips.
I like to do reductive charcoal. A video on that would be great!
Charcoal is definitely my worst medium, but after watching this video, I am inspired to try working with it again! ❤️
Torres Artist Honestly same here! All it takes is practice and dedication 😊
I haven’t used charcoal for years
Kelvin Javier Me neither, but i think now would be a good time to start again 🤗
forever in the sun yep! how long have you been using charcoal?
Torres Artist not long but i’m going to pick it up again soon :)
Thank you so much for these tips. Your drawings are so realistic, as a beginner, I have a lot to aim for!
What a coincidence! I've seen some of your videos and this video came at the right time. Thank you!
You draw so beautifully and diverse, and your lessons are general and clear, answering, i believe, every question i think of. Thank u
Great video Kirsty, I've always liked your charcoal drawings 🥰🥰
WOW! You are awesome so awesome! I LOVE your work drawings art tutorials. Just absolutely love it.
Thank you Kirsty. Great tips! To clean off the charcoal powder that accumulates I never use a brush as it smears sometimes. I periodically use a small handheld vacuum of low power at an angle (mine charges on the computer).
I thought you will make a video about how to plan your watercolor painting I'm so excited
Hi Kirsty. You are one of my favorite artist and instructor. I have learned so, so much from you. I have learned more from you in 2 weeks than I have in 4 months from everyone else combined. You explain things very easily and you don't act like a big goof or use sex to get people to watch your videos. I have such a great deal of respect for you. I hope that those who are watching will subscribe and like your videos. I understand how much time it takes to make and post these things. Thanks again.
Amazing advice today i used a wet brush on charcoal and it worked great thank you for your vids!!!!
I love the way you talked. I can listen to you all day 😊
Thank you so much for this video! This is very helpful.. ❤️
Hi Kirsty, what paper do you recommend for charcoal.l noticed you used a rough paper in this video, but I like to work on smooth, does it take the charcoal well or is a rough paper better. Thanks for your tutorials, I have learnt so much from them.
There are charcoal pads, she might be using that (4 years late lol)
Great video and beautiful drawing! Thank you for posting!
Thank you! Beautiful drawing!
Amazing helpful tips !
Pastels are also "messy" I have resorted to a dust-buster type of vacuum that is HEPA filtered and using Glassine papers to keep the surface and my self clean! OH I loved the elephant drawing you flashed to in this video! The Sky was amazing! watching you do some dramatic backgrounds would be a good video too!

Great tips! I will certainly try them. Thank you.
These are some great tips! Thank you so much!

I love you and your explications!
This is so helpful! Thankyou for the tips
Very helpful video! I've tried charcoal for animals and the results were good, but I haven't tried it for portraits yet, because I don't know how it will end up. Great work, though, keep it up! 😀
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
Thanks 4 the video..vary helpful.. I use my sis make-up brush to bland my drawing and i really love the result👍
Brilliant tutorial. I want to do a moody forest or gnarly old trees in charcoal. Great tips👏❤

This video gave me some confidence. I think i can charcoal a little now
Beautiful, thank you for sharing
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
Thanks, Kirsty. I haven't used charcoal in a long time but I did buy some new pencils not long ago and I need to give it a go. Do you ever add in color to charcoal drawings? Would it end up a mess if I tried going in with colored pencils?
Awesome video Kirsty thank you! Have you ever considered using oil paints?
Thankyou so much!!! After finishing a drawing, what can be used to varnish or spray the drawing for longevity?
finally!!! i was so bummed off from charcoal... i used the blending tool, and then that didn't do good because it was dirty.. only with brush its possible to get that fine lines i'm so wanting to achieve. thank you!
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
this was so helpful 😭 I'm a Junior in highschool that will be taking AP Studio art and I choose my media to be charcoal
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /...
I love the tips. I am currently using pencils to draw zentangle type drawings and have a huge problem with the graphite smudging. These tips are going to help. QUESTION: Doesn't the paper also smudge? Or, is it clean paper (working lt to lt) that the protective sheet is always resting on?
Next time I will try this paint brush idea..
you make charcoal drawing look so easy. I'm gonna give it a try.
Thank you Kristy
really good video
and hope you make toturial about getting the right proportion in the face plz... because its the hard part to me
keep it up.....!!
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
Great video!
Hi, i didn't get much toys in my childhood, so i spent a lot time with drawing. 1 time i got a charcoal pen even i didn't know what it was. Thanks for decades of years how to use it...but i had had my own joy with it :)
Wow i love your art soooo much😀
Hey again thnx for the tips
please how do you avoid harshness when using charcoal?I tried doin some shadows on a face with charcoal and it got rili harsh and looked like she had a bruise.Maybe kt is cos I used a blending stump to blend the shadow area.What do you think?Should I have used a tissue?or switched to another grade of the charocal pencil
Hi, what did u use to make white eyes n some of part of face lighter? Ive been drawing portrait using normal pencil but as u said, it get that shiny thing n its not matte..so im trying to learn how to use charcoal properly..
I just bought a charcoal pencil kit and it was great in the beginning but then when the pencils needed sharpening ,, they broke 🙁. So i was wondering is there a special type of sharpener for them ? OR were my pencils not good ? Thank you
Very helpful. Thank you :)
U r such a talented artist
I truly love your videos I want to learn from you
Amazing talent
Hey kristy!!! You're so lit girl keep up your good work ....... much love❤
ua-cam.com/video/5G4ira4_7hQ/v-deo.html /
Hi Kristy! Love your videos :) question: when I use the mono eraser the residue tends to stick to the page, how do you get rid of it?
Great sharing
Beautiful portrait of this girl.
Great video, I personally love using "newsprint" paper.
Can you do a video on using Arteza watercolor... it is a lot cheaper than winsor and newton watercolor so I want to see if I should go ahead and get the winsor and newton watercolor pallete or if the Arteza one would work well too but not so expensive... thank you!
