Beautiful portrait. Your art tutorials are the best. Thank you!

Excellent tutorial. I work primarily in watercolours but recently got interested in colour pencil drawings. Wildlife subjects are relatively easy but I was finding portraits a little daunting until I found your video. Shading the skin is definitely something you have to do without worrying about what the clock is doing...🤣

Personally, I usually start with what's on the top left - as a right-handed person - and on the face with the skin. I stopped the video at 4:15 and remembered the sentence you just said before: Not starting with the eyes would look creepy and now I see these eyes that look pretty creepy to me. :D (What is not an offense is just an observation) But for me... I guess starting with the skin it looks a little like a mask. It seems empty but less creepy. I can concentrate more on the shadows than if I were already focusing on the person. The eyes, (especially the gray around the irises,) are worked on at the end because the colors stay sharp and I won't risk them to blur in the process. I recently met a gentleman with a similar but cooler blond mane. The color ivory as a base coat paired with nougat worked wonders here. I touched up some dark hairs and shadows with black occasional strokes. He was very pleased because he didn't want to have that reddish or a yellowish cast.

great portrait and you are such a great drawer

Youre very talented. Really beautiful!!

Can you recommend a starter set of prncils and paper for doing portraits (for a beginner with no supplies).

Mam kindly create a playlist for colour pencil sketch series for beginners

Can you use the black pencil to darken shadows? Some say it is incorrect… but without it, brown is not dark enough sometimes

How do you use the grid do you measure it in certain drawings?

How great is it if polychromos makes it realistic like this? 😃 I want This Pencil amazing colours

What paper are you using please

and you are so good at making eyes if i send my picture to you can you draw me

It's not free if I have to give my credit card first instead of the end of the trial period. But thanks for today's tips.
