    Good to have a talented artist around who isn't stuck up and posts videos only to showcase their art. I appreciate that you take it slow acknowledging that most of your audience would be beginners. And your progress doesn't seem to get to your head. That's a humble artist. Learned a lot. Thank you. :D

    Penny Gardner possibly they mean the people who refuse to help others? especially in a community about sharing and exchanging help considering that the artist wouldn't have gotten to that point without the help of other artists who actually shared their tips and advice. of course though there's a difference between not being able to convey it and outright refusing to help others despite having used helped themselves to 'get good'. rather than stuck up i see it more as selfish if anything

    Its stuck for to post a tutorial video with very little except for a showcase for the teachers skill, basically bragging in the form of a tutorial. If you still don't understand because I'm terrible at explaining, it focuses more on the artists skill than what the tutorial/lesson is about. That IS stuck up.

Stop thinking that for some reason every artist that is "true" to themselves needs to have low confidence. Liking your artwork is fine, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't improve. Stop being such a gatekeeper.

    I feel this "paper with depth" method really makes looking at the form in the third dimension way easier rather than the 'old' method using the basic construction and center line indicating the twist. That method feels very flat to me and I start feeling a little confused with the directions. Thanks for this video, and that book.

I must say, your style of teaching, visually and auditory is the best. I enjoy hearing the sound of you drawing on your device -i don't want to assume what you're drawing on- I sure hope you're continuing such things and continuing on teaching artists wanting to know more!

    Really enjoyed this one. I've been looking for a leg up on this very thing (twisting), and this is exactly what I needed to point me in the right direction. I had already started doing this in my own work, and after a lot of trial and error, I would usually work it out. But it was always by accident and I couldn't figure out what was making it work. This basically put a huge flashing light on what I was doing. Thanks for this.

    8:40 "So much of art is training your brain to see things in different ways." This struck me as having likeness to lessons I've learned from Jazz + Composition: "there are no wrong notes, just try to figure out what you feel like they're expressing or leading to." So, take the time to consider it differently, if only analytically at first. Context & movement is everything!

I would say though that the bending & turning of the skeleton is a better example if more...technical
