Why not save the filings in a container to use as compressed charcoal?
Yeah reeeally want some intro music
You need some intro music. That would be 🔥🔥🔥
I often have the patience of a hyperactive flea or a hummingbird. But watching you produce an accurate, neat, manageable, proportionate shape is calming like meditating and it works. This whole series has boosted my confidence that I can learn to draw anything. I've practiced relentlessly though not consistently 100's of all forms and shapes -- lines, curves, cones, etc. which has kept me plugging along toward my goal to be able to draw anything I see. But my proportions were off when I'd try to scale up an image from a book or magazine, etc. I didn't do it often because I didn't want to get frustrated, or worse give up because I trust the process. I was just intimidated by Andrew Loomis' use of lines like this because I didn't have the directions for how to manage this. I have double vision which makes a gaggle of lines as noisey and disruptive to seeing as a group of yacking ducks! I am going to work these Charles Bargue plate exercises for three months so the ideas you spoke with words and charcoal in this series begin to become second nature for this detailed person. As you spoke about reading the reference top to bottom, and left to right I felt this approach would also enhance my museum-going experiences, along with looking to the largest forms and shapes. I really enjoyed my first formal introduction to reading art. Thank you.
Thank you for the great series on Bargue drawings!
My drawing has improved after watching a couple of your videos.
this is NOT drawing....
RE The charcoal dust - she says throw it away, but you might want to save it in a small jar if you go through lots of charcoal sticks. You can do washes with powdered charcoal and water and some art stores sell jars of it.
Understand very well thank you
Thank you very much for all this. Finally, for the first time I got excited about learning something through KZread
Thank you so much for making these videos, they are well organized and a great resource when starting the Bargue drawing course! What do we do if we are drawing from life, and we don't have a notional space box around our reference? how do we keep getting the same precise measurements.
Wonderful videos, thank you for sharing such good information.
love the music choices from 27:00 to the end, really keeps me motivated! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
Not saying your a bad teacher because I like the way you explain everything concisely and I’m enjoying these lessons so thank you
In the last lesson you said if you had 8 to 10 lines you would be overthinking it but now we have that many lines ?
Notional space boxes and checking measurements on the other side. Maybe using vanishing point helped ancient predecessors could have used for faster mass production. Its just a theory.
Thank you
Thank you.
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you.
Thank you
Thank you
Thanks for sharing this playlist! Are the photocopies you use and the one showing in this video of the plates standard printing paper (8.5x11 inches)? Or do you print enlarged version of the plate to better match the original dimensions of them?

Thank you for your videos, very helpful. A small critique though, the audio is off, make sure to have the audio output as mono instead of unbalanced stereo.
What are the dimensions in inches of your source reference print? Thanks! Great Tutuorial!
100 % right
Can't seam to find the dimension for making the shadow box.
I bought the Charles Brague, book but it's so hard to buy the charcoal that you use
My type of lady :) also good info
so glad I'm watching this and kinda upset with myself. Am doing a Ear Plaster Cast now. I've done a good Bargue Arm Plate before some 3 years ago. And kinda got 'rusty' on the main ideas. With my Ear Cast went ahead and added 7 lines. Forgot also that lines may intersect the drawing. i can't restart just because of that. The error is not serious, in fact could even make it easier later on. But the point of my drawing the Cast is to drill proper procedure and learning. Not render a perfect replica (which fine, would my next intention). Truly wished (as many would) - you uploaded or made it available your Plaster Cast Drawing series. My Ear Cast I hanged to my drawing paper as if a plate. I drilled a hole through the board and paper by using a corkscrew! Some ateliers do that. I chose not to go with a shadow box this time.
Tha la for this lessons, It helps me a lot
Please. what size of Coates do you prefer more, 4-6mm or 7-9mm ? I 'm ready to add willow to my charcoal sketches, after creating as many as I could, with compressed sticks and pencils. Should I get 4-6mm, both or a different set please?
Really appreciate these videos, very informative. I’m a very impatient budding artist, and this process makes me slow down to get more accuracy.
Wow very nice and affordable..
😍
there are good reasons why this style of teaching was abandoned, and good reasons why it should survive
I panicked when she broke the charcoal
Where are you? 😢
Are you using a softer charcoal when laying in the shadows? Soft, medium and hard are mentioned in the material section and I’m not sure if I missed something on the grades of charcoal to use.
the first and only one channel on youtube who explained how to copy bargue plates properly and being so for years!!!. i really appreciate your work and many thanks for you.
These videos are great. Thanks for sharing the process and techniques. I’m curious whether you have tips and instructions on how to determine the shape of the midtone when you pull it out of the shadow. I don’t feel confident that the form of my midtone will be accurate without outlining of the midtone first but I have a hard time telling where it stops and ends. Your advice would be much appreciated!
I thought you were never going to notice that off angle at the crease of the arm. It gave me a little anxiety.😂😂 I see how patient you have to be with it. I've been looking for this information for so long. Just watching your videos of the process of drawing this one has helped me so much. Thank you again.
Could you do a demo of how you use it in a portrait drawing?
Thank you so much. Your videos are super helpful.
But what about using... RoseArt?! I had my students do mastercopies in crayon, too (Crayola)! Thanks for all you put out!
What an amazing course! I took some similar lessons from a young couple in Montana who taught the same method but sadly they had to move back to Italy because of Covid and had to close the studio. I’m curious, they were trained in Florence and remind me greatly of you and Bargue
This was wonderful! ❤
It seems impertinent for me to say, since I've only just done my first Bargue plate (I,1, the eyes) but I think your knuckle triangle looks skinny because the mark at the top of the notional space box is a little too far to the left. But the main thing I mean to say is that your explanations and demonstrations are so helpful. I'm loving learning to draw from zero, making good progress and feeling confident that I will continue to improve thanks to your lessons Mandy. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
