Hi everyone, here's the painting half of the drawing video I posted last month. The main take away from these two videos is the basic idea to separate the elements and focus on one at a time.

I had some requests for a portrait, so I ended up doing it in color pencil. Let me know if y’all have any questions.

I also lIke Prismacolor, but they all have a slight...

I've been working with color keying lately, which just means focusing the spectrum of color to a particular area of the color wheel.

When I say “seeing more abstractly” what I’m talking about is just simply looking at things differently, in a new way. You’re changing how you perceive information. It could be compared to the saying “thinking outside the box” somewhat. I think the most concrete aspect of this idea is to simply see objects as basi...
