Don't worry most art schools are like this. Being in art school, I find myself researching on my own and learning from peers more than lecturers ever teach you. Don't be afraid to ask around and look online to improve yourself! In the end, they let you try figure everything by yourself, so that you can develop your own skills and style without them having any influence and control on you.

I've had art as an extra class for a few years now (science students don't have it by default), and my teachers always emphasized more on oil painting techniques. So what that means is us students would have to learn other mediums on our own, or not learn at all :v

I literally just learnt this in science a week ago. Like different H and B pencils have different amounts of graphite and clay. The more graphite means a darker tone. For example, a 4B pencil has 79% graphite and 15% clay, compared to a 4H pencil with a 55% graphite and 39% clay. *Note that most pencils have a 5% wax content.

The best explanation about this B-not to B subject that I ever found. Thank you 🙏
✨BUTTAH✨ thanks Scott
I do a lot of graphite and sketches and I always use a 2H pencil for my outlines on everything. It's light and doesn't really smudge, so I can ink over it for my watercolors or put colored pencil over them and they don't get all over everything else.

I use 4H for all mine. Easy to erase and ink over.
I’ll always remember the “buttah” pencils, thank you Scott
Ooh! I learned about this in art class! Basically the lead in "H" pencils are made with more clay, making them harder and lighter. Meanwhile "B" pencils are made with less clay an more graphite, making them softer and darker.

You are an adorable person, while at same time being very informative! I love you videos, thanks for making great content.
i will personally start calling B “Best for blending”
I love the way you explained the difference between B and H! Great job Scott ❤️
That actually really helps now I know why some of my pencils are so much lighter than the others I do realistic art and the h's are just not dark enough and they dont blend as well and this is 1 of the other many reasons why I fallow you lol

I like that there are different kinds of pencils, it makes sketching much easier for me
This was honestly the best explanation I've ever heard. Thank you.
I love this explanation. So simple and less confusing than trying to figure what’s the difference on my sketching kit.
I love Scott he's just such a sweet person he's got to be my favorite content creator ever
Scott, thank you so much for making these videos. Not only are they incredibly informative, but they also always seem to make me smile You're the best, thanks again
You are a WEALTH of information and communicate SO WELL!!! Thank you!!!
Now I know what HB stands for 🙂 thank you
This was so helpful and it’s the first time I have ever heard it explained simply enough for anyone to understand. Thanks!
I found my sweet spot in 4B when I was in college. I haven't went near "art" in many years now, but coming across your videos a couple of weeks ago really helped inspired me to want to come back to it; especially the video you did on how there's no wrong way of doing art. Thank you, God bless.
You have answered a decade long question that I for some reason never googled and I thank you for it, love all your work!
I cannot tell you how thankful I am for this information, thank you so much Scott
My favorite things about your videos are the fact that you give tips inspiration and make jokes! The way you enjoy drawing makes me just want to draw for a whole day. Also the joke you made at the beginning really got me lmao
This is the perfect explanation! Anytime I've googled the difference I end up finding super long articles that I don't find really explain the difference
You answered that question better than anyone ever could 💓
Hey Scott, I just gotta say; thank you so much for inspiring me to actively draw more. You’ve helped me so much with my motivation it’s ridiculous. Really. Thank you so very much.
Honestly this man is one of the most wholesome people on this platform. You saved my art in many ways. Motivation, quality, and creativity. Thanks Scott.
Smooth like butter...✨💜
I was actually really curious why an art kit I got had so many pencils, and this answers it well!! Thank you!!
Scott just made me a better artist today!
“BUTTAH”😂
Actually that is a really good explanation and demonstration! I don't consider myself an artist, and don't draw all the time. But when I do, I like using pencils, but never quite got the lettering of them! Now I understand a lot more!
Oh my God. I just love watching your videos. I'm positive your family just loves you ❤️ them and anyone who's met you! You have such a great personality. Thank you 😊
This is such a wholesome video omfg
I never thought i would [ HAVE ] to use your videos for my art (I'll use it for your use but no where else really explained it well enough ) thank you for being here for my junior art y9ull help me in the long run
As a kid, and being the artist of the family, I'd always get those drawing pencil sets for birthdays and Christmas. I never knew why my drawings looked so horrible using them until you explained this.. H for erasable defined lines, B for soft shading. But 15 years later I now have such a large swath of art skills and a collection of art supplies so big I just use whatever I pick up off my work table. Or the first pencil that rolls forward in my drawer, even if it's a colored one.
Can you make a playlist containing all Everything you want to know? That'll be helpful
Thanks! I’ve recently gotten into drawing more realism and I don’t do well with shading colors so I’ve been doing black and whites, this is really great tysmm!
Your content is educational AND makes me smile, 8 billion out of 10, delightful
This is really helpful 👍 I love your art style so much you inspire me so much and you have such useful tips I love your videos
You explained it very well! I had a hard time understanding before this. Thanks!
I think you explained it very wonderful in 1 minutes Keep up scott
I really love the way you explain things it's really helpful in my art journey
Oh thank you, I've been wondering that for the longest time! It makes so much sense
This helped a lot with my art, I was so inspired by your one video where you got the old bag for all of your art stuff that I got one too. I got a real Swiss Army Medic Bag from the 50s I’m still in the process of cleaning it but I can’t wait, good luck on your art!
i love this guy he's so wholesome
Scott thank you so much, this actually just jumped by learning ahead significantly. ♥️
2b and 3b is the best for lines, and 6b is the best for shading no more debait needed
Yu explaind it very well. I have not gotten many H pencils. But that made it make way more sense.. Changes are coming in my art soon.
This was sooooooo helpful! I always preferred B pencils (usually 4b or 6b) but my drawings were always so soft and smeared a lot. It turns out I should have been using H pencils and got hooked on 4H and I'm happy with my results. Thanks for clearing this up. Stay awesome! ♥️

Well explained!! 😃👍🏾 Blending stick or blending stump or tortillon…
Could you do a series showing different styles in a single sketchbook? It would be really entertaining!
You really are a gem! We love you and your wonderful videos.
My favorite pencil is the 3b. It's soft enough for drawings and doesn't smudge too much if I decide to write with it. So it definitely is a perfect all-rounder for me :)
This was definitely a more fun explanation of lead hardness than my college professors gave 😊 Loved it!
I like you for not being pretentious artist.
Thankyou for for explaining this!
This is the first time I actually heard this in a way I can understand and hopefully remember lol thanks for these videos!
I love every single video :) It's perfect for all our art baby friends to help them out ☺️ I've shared your videos countless times with beginner artists :) Very useful 🌸
I always considered the B to stand for Blending/Blendable pencils. They are so satisfying to use!
Essentially correct. The h pencils are usually use for light sketches to erase easily when going over it or something along that line. The b gradients is all about shading and making a master piece.
This was pretty helpful, thank you for the demonstration! 😁
Thank you. I thought it was a great explanation. I just experimented until I figured out what they all did. Use them all and you can get all kinds of texture.
You nailed the explanation, Scott. Not so different from how my art teacher explained it to me eons ago.
I love your Buttah!!!😂 Love your videos Scott!! Keep up the good work!😁😃
Thank you this helped me so much I just got into sketching and this was very helpful when getting started
Love your hints!
Yes he finally explains the difference between different pencil sizes
Thank you for the advice! I never actually knew the difference
I love the way you say butter 😆🧈
OMG I NEEDED THIS tysm I recently got the materials and was struggling to know which Pencil works the best with the blending stick I’m happy 😀
Got these pencils at an exchange gift with a good quality color pencils. I did notice this (never tried to blend it though) and it was pretty cool to have these as a beginner. Probably best gifts I had.
