A bit more of an in depth look to how I go about this specific style and technique. Here are the materials I use for this drawing:
Generals Compressed Charcoal
Pan Pastel
Kneaded Eraser
Mono Zero Eraser
Blending Stump
Paper Towel

"Eventually the more you work on your drawing, the more they'll disappear. Just you don't have to worry too much about being too neat with them."
8:25 you can tell how skilled he is, by simply seeing how much he is able to demonstrate. Drawing takes more of an internal feeling to get right. Most don't even know what they are doing. Yet he is able to illustrate how he is thinking, and that is a very powerful skill.
Your charcoal portraits are insanely wonderful. Thankyou for sharing your method of working. 🙏🏼❤️
I'm recommending your channel to my art group. You've transformed my drawing skills. Can't thank you enough. Love from England.
Youre doing a great job of converting your thought process into words. It's not an easy thing to do especially while you are drawing/painting at the same time.
I'm an older senior. I've done some sculpture and some writing but never any painting, drawing, or charcoal. One afternoon, not long ago, I was watching a young woman in the park encouraging something out of a piece of paper with a chunk of charcoal. I watched and watched this cloud of gray, black and white....chaos, chaos, chaos and all of a sudden... a beautiful face.So far....pretty terrible. I wont quit though...even though you and that young lady make it look unobtainablely simple. Wonderful work. I'll keep watching, listening, and trying to learn. thank you.
I like how you talk about those principles (values + proportion, build those first then refine), instead of simply saying here's step 1 and then step 2. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
You’re a fabulous teacher and of course an amazing artist. I’ve learned so much about working with charcoal from your videos. This is Excellent from start to finish
I would reccomend your demos to students as well as artist friends. Your drawings are poetic, atmospheric and simply beautiful. I'm wondering if you maintain those qualities in your paintings.
Das ist das beste Video, mit dem besten Resultat was ich je zum Thema Holzkohle gesehen habe!!! Phänomenal !!! Du bist ein wahrer Künstler !! ❤❤
One way to explain about the shadow detail is, You want to have a refined focal point so your drawing or painting reads like the natural human gaze. The viewer can only focus on one area for detail. That is natural observation. So you are trying to mimic the natural way the human eyes see. That is why you create a focal point in your work. The lost information gives them something to mentally engage with. Great job! Love your channel.
Thanks for the interesting charcoal tutorial and how you used the pan pastel and soft palet knife. Up until now I've been using charcoal dust and make-up brushes/blenders.
I absolutely enjoy your channel, your work and how you communicate. Thank you for posting and giving your time!
You explain very well actually. So inspiring! I’m so in love with your work. And panpastel was just the thing I was looking after all. Im so glad I found this.
great watching your work manifest on the page. Ordering Panpastels today to try those out. So neat!
Love this video and thank you! I have been trying this and having so much fun with it! Sometimes it is successful and other times not, but I am learning!
Love watching your technique.
You are just amazing sir! Capturing the essence is what this medium is about! And you totally nail it there.
Wonderful expression... many thanks for the authentic joy of creating...
Excellent tutorial ! Thank you for sharing this with us.
Absolutely love your videos! 🙌
I just found your channel and subscribed. I really like how you emphasize establishing similar values on different parts of the face and detailing the areas where the light hits. Your technique and work is amazing!
Radical. Excellent demo!
I think it would be helpful to have a small image of your reference drawing in one of the corners of the video

Otherwise… ? I’m not sure why so many KZread artists do this. Most everything they say is meaningless. A waste of what I’m sure would have been a useful tutorial. Frustrating.

freeze the video where he shows the reference > screen capture it > arrange the window displaying the youtube video and the screencapture so that they both sit nicely on your monitor. In a nuthsell: God helps those who help themselves.
That is fantastic, beautiful drawing. Thank you for the tutorial
Wonderful looking over your shoulder as you provide this generous insight into your creative process. It really is a great privilege to see the image emerge from the paper. Thank you.
This looks exactly like my drawing professor Mr. Jim Pearson. Amazing man! And this is a fantastic drawing!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, that’s a cool portrait I’d be happy to hang on the wall 👍
Great tutorial! Going to grap my Pan Pastel and give it a go.
Definitely not bad at explaining... the best thing you do throughout your entire videos is continuously talk .. you are constantly giving inside tips and tricks in your explanation of theory and perspective
Wow!!!!!!! Excellent explanation!!!!!!! God bless you
You just simply incredible.
This is a really helpful tutorial. Thank you, I love the way you work.

Really great demo. I’ve been dabbling a bit myself recently (though I’ll do anything to avoid working with messy stuff like charcoal). Have ordered some pan pastel and a soft palette knife to experiment with - it looks like a fun tool to use. Keep up the good work!
Great vid - thank you! It would be awesome if you can share how you drew the beard. Did you use the kneaded eraser for the “white hair”?
Hi love the video! I am getting into charcoal portraits and was wondering what easel you are using. I would really like to know!
That’s actually a pretty good explanation
great great. thanks for sharing this video tutorial.
Could you make a video about your reference points that you use, like how you used the eye to find where to put the mouth?

He is try to show the structure not to show in detail the eye or the mouth likeness. I like this kind rough drawing because it’s artistic!
Hello Mr charcoal, you are the best one to transmit the good way to progress ...do thanks you so much for that 🙏👣🐾👣🐾...and it s Aldo famous to pratcice english... So would you like to try Mona Lisa...? 😮😊...nice day between France Pyrénées 😉
Thanks for your lovely work, detailed and simple explanation, in total contrast to listening to the so many anoying noises you've also shared with us! Please put a glass of water nearby to clear your throat, or edit the noises after finishing the video. Thanks again for your kind and generoud tutoial. All the best.
Man, I respect your mad skills, oh I mean mad charcoal
thanks for uploading these i just started charcoal and need all the help i can get lol
It was like next level
Who ever invented the kneaded eraser is a genius
Very good..gran trabajo..maravilloso..tienes mas videos??
Lovely. Subscribed. I like your voice. It's nice!
Great tutorial! I’d like to suggest if you can show the reference on camera while you’re drawing... I don’t know how to explain but this helps to understand what you’re doing not just watch the process
Your creations are beautiful! Question Do you spray them to keep them set?
Amazing
That's the portait of Psarantonis! He is the brother of famous Nikos Xilouris, both Cretan musicians.He comes from Crete Island of Greece. I live there too. If you didn't try to make the portait of Psarantonis, then the similaritiy is more than a simple coincidence!
Κοπελια!! Ο Ψαραντωνης!
Good stuff
He is really nice guy by true heart..
I like your flair. How do you fix and prepare a piece before shipping ?
you are absolutely cracked
I bought black panpastel about 6 months ago. Finally got around to trying it yesterday & was an epic fail! Lol! Gonna keep trying...
2023.. your my favourite.
👍👍👍
Does the black Pan Pastel lift as well as willow charcoal?
👍👍
Can we use charcoal powder instead of pan pastel?
👍 👍 🌷
Does it matters for what type of paper do we use?
What kind of paper do u use?
Hello master Cual es papel adecuado ?? Saludos desde mexico !!
what's your favorite paper for charcoal?
Is it black pan pastel ?
What kind of knife are you using for shading
Kindly draw beautiful and joyful faces too.
man this is psarantonis for creta greece a very famous musician

I hope you know whose portrait you've made here..! He is Psarantonis a great musician from the island of Crete in Greece! Search for his music in youtube...
This guy closely reminds me of Psarantonis,a Greek singer,is that him?
I like the pic. A lot of the pics you see on online tutorials are so bland. As the man said, I think you have at least a trace of talent!
