🏆Another spectacular piece 🏆 I just love watching your videos and learning from your technique. Please keep them coming.
I must say I envy the sharp points you get on your pencils from what appears to be a helix pencil sharpener (0:18 in the background). I have tried so many sharpeners now that I have a veritable graveyard of sharpeners.

[@ericwilsonfineart]

Thank you and well spotted. I go into sharpeners in one of my previous videos, but yes, you're right. Helix are very good WHEN they want to be, and highly annoying when they don't.
