Don't use betterhelp they've been known to let anyone be a "therapist" and have a lot of scandals surrounding their business. it's disheartening to see creators keep working with them@@annusolanki1031

I love how you color your portraits because it's pastel but with a wide range of values! But, please check your sponsor because they currently have issues and controversies. I hope you'll look into it 😊

Youre basically saying pencils 2 as crayons is the word for pencil in French and very similar in Romanian

with color a rule of thumb is that as long as it works in black & white you can use any color you want! Value gives all the info needed, color is just the atmosphere

Agreed! Thanks so much for watching! 💖

I loved what you said about not worrying so much about color matching. Personally, I like to really limit my palette of colored pencils (just grabbing a handful), that way I don't always have the right colors but can focus on values and line work. Also, your nails were so so pretty here, that polish is to die for!!

Beautiful. I love how you've captured the warmth in the left side of the face. You can really see the light there despite that side in shadow, the warmth of the skin is really shining through

You are very skilled and you have plenty to offer in terms of creating art videos on youtube. I mean, have you seen a lot of the art on here? LOL. I really like hearing your thoughts on which direction to hatch and how you do shape design. That was the first thing I noticed about your colored pencil portraits, and it even shows up in your gouache paintings I think. It's a very unique aspect of your art. Great video!

Looks amazing! You make it look so simple (obviously not)! Now I want to try! 😄😄

Very helpful that you have gone to the trouble of making this video tutorial. Reading a book on coloured pencils is not the same as having someone walk you through it. I feel after watching this the next step is very much to practice. Blending seems to be the hardest challenge. But I will see in my next portrait if I am getting better at slowing it down and layering.

Awesome thx love the Prisma color ❤

Your candid nature makes you look good on camera! Keep doing the great work!

This is exactly the kind of content I've been looking for. I got off KZread for a while because I felt that artists were gate keeping, and putting other artists down, but you have such a beautiful channel, and such a lovely personality. Your portraits are clearly full of love and appreciation, and you helped me to remember some of the parts of art that I love and haven't focused on lately. Enjoying the beauty of unique features and thinking how fun it is play with those features. Thank you,

Excellent tips and explanation!

Yes, I would love to understand values when using colour. This is the second time I've watched this video. ❤

I don’t have access to col-erase, but have noticed my watercolor pencils are mostly erasable. I always use a colorful sketch and it’s been fine. At least worth a shot to try it! I also, for some reason prefer using watercolor colored pencils even without adding water. Maybe it prevents me from going too vibrant too early lol

oh my god... you might be my new idol in art

I agree with you too many colors for shading ends up heavy, layering primary or selected ones the whole picture has coordinate natural lights

Fantastic job
