Happy New Years Eve-Day, everyone!!

I am posting Sketch tutorial #5 today, (which first appeared on my Patreon page for my $5 Patreon members!)
 
Today's tutorial comes to you complete with supply lists, source image uploads, and even a supplemental project for you to try, should you feel bold enough to take on the Challenge!! -Can ya beat that!! -All of this courtesy of your friendly neighborhood artist-at-large.

This session is focused on working with hair, (or fur, rather, in this case), and on rendering values from life. 

I use these vids for my live Virtual sessions twice a month (please check out my Patreon Link below for more info, and reach out if you are interested.)

​Thanks for stopping in, and have a great weekend!

Hello everyone, thanks so much for dropping by!

(Re-posting Sketch Tutorial #4 today, which made its first appearance on my Patreon Site some weeks ago.) 

A Word About Episode 4 in my Charcoal Tutorial Video Series:

Relax, pull up your Charcoal, and check out the latest: a 1 and 1/2 hour timed session compressed into 10 minutes for your amusement and edification. Good times, you guys!!!

(Similarly to the previous 3 installments, I am working with light and dark values, how to use Charcoal, and stay focused on your light sources.)

I am now doing Virtual Workshops twice a month, with new videos and projects for my fellow artists with each session.

 Hey everyone!

3rd Charcoal Video in the series posting today!

-We use these narrated Charcoal renderings for my twice-a-month Workshops, as instruction tools and support content -(see my Patreon link below for details.) 

For this video I am continuing in Charcoal, working with dark and light values, and tried my hand at a Robert Downey Jr. sketch, in this compressed 10-minute video.

Next Live Video Session will be in two weeks, on Sunday January 10th at 2:00 pm- hope to see some of your there!

 I have graciously included the source image below, along with a helpful handout about facial proportions and Charcoal Supply Lists.

Thanks for dropping by, and have a great week!
