It was quite amazing to watch this sketch unfold. Looking at the photo, I would have been completely intimidated, wondering where in the world to begin. Thank you for your step by step breakdown. Much appreciated.

thanks for the feedback! Portraits can be intimidating so I'm glad you liked the steps👍🏼

Proportion measurements and minimal line work for the win! Thank you for making such a concise tutorial. 🙏

i absolutely love your little shortcuts to get proportions correct

I definitely agree. Wonderful technique or style. Loomis method is not for. This style resembles a bit to mine with imorovements. I'll definitely adopt those dots. Thanks for sharing.

The eyes came Outta nowhere with a few simple moves. It came alive after that wowa. And dried water colour has this special life to it. It's such a simple thing, take colour add water but the way you use it is brilliant and needs to be respected. Seems easy but that's because of your talent and practice :)

I really love this style of loose lines combined with the watercolor! Been wanting to draw like this for years now, I hope this video gets me to finally give it a try. Thanks for the content!

I just made a sketch following yours and it's the best portrait drawing I ever made. Thank you! You're an excellent instructer.

You're my ultimate favorite sketch artist. Watching you makes drawing feel less intimidating, but still potentially impressive

This is brilliant, thank you. Love the simple idea of using dots for scale. I tried to draw a teapot recently but the proportions were terrible, would’ve been much easier if I’d marked it out with dots first.

Awesome tutorial! I have learned so much from your tutorials, and now I find drawing to be so relaxing rather than tedious. Thank you!

The dot thing actually makes sense, I will definitely incorporate it in my future sketches. Thanks!

I have been doing my sketches wrong that's why i have not improved for years, this is the first time someone showed me how to properly execute proportions w/o it being to overwhelming, such an eye opener, thank you!!

This is so cool. I'm going to totally try this method! I'll give an update on how it goes! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Scottie for nice watercolor practice.

What a nice, straightforward tutorial. Your ink and watercolor art style is beautiful (it's actually what made me click the thumbnail, on the art style alone), and I love watching the techniques behind beautiful artwork. The dots and proportion estimates are a great way to visualize without having to sketch with a pencil first, and I'll certainly be giving it a try myself! I've only used watercolors once in my life, but I've been wanting to try them again. I see you have a tutorial about watercolor washes, so I'm probably headed there next. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, just wow You make it so simple. I wish you had been my art teacher 25 years ago!!

Love it Scottie. It came out fantastic!

Love this, thank you so much!

Gosh you made that look easy! Thanks Scottie for sharing, love watching you sketch 🥰xxx

so pretty !

Perfect tutorial. Freehand is art. I only draw and paint freehand. But you teach me something new. Thanks

Fantastic tutorial!

This makes so much sense..

Thats amazing! Thanks for the tutorial. Earned yourself a sub there

I have always wanted to make this style of art work but am too art illiterate on how people do it. It’s very helpful to watch than just drawing a circle, i prefer these dots as reference points because it challenges my observation on portraits. Thank you 👍❣️

Amazing 🤩

I definitely find it easier to sketch along with you. I drew it the first time in pencil and a second time in ink just so I could paint it and it turned out great!

As always Scottie, that was interesting, useful and enjoyable to watch! I think a lot of people find portrait drawing the most intimidating - there is such a small margin for error. Everyone knows exactly how a face should look; the proportions and the relation of the features. It was interesting to see how carefully you added each line, and with just a few key lines the face took shape.

Drawing so loosely intimidates me because of my perfectionism but it’s something I’d like to learn

Great video Scottie. Instead of construction lines, why not use construction dots? Brilliant. Many many thanks!

I think this is more useful for people who are already a bit skilled rather than newcomers. I'm starting to feel more confident with my sketches but if I went all linework right from the beginning without guidelines and the skeleton it would come up very inconsistent because I haven't developed a deep sense of space like you have.

@@SketchingScottie Nah I don't see it, you need fundamentals. You can improve this way but seems counterproductive for a newcomer

Was loving it - the effect is great and inspired me to try but please don’t make jumps in the filming - speed up if you must but jumps are very disconcerting..

Would you please consider doing some sketching tips videos on how to capture dogs? Love your style but prefer dogs to people, lol 🐾💜

Sometimes i can draw so well and sometimes its like i cant do anything at all and youve really filled in the gaps between that here.

What pen is that?

I'm new to drawing, never did it before. Is it okay to start learning sketching, or I need to have prior experience with drawing?
