Many thanks for the support Robert, learning to draw should and CAN be simple. Just like everything else it requires dedication and patience, along side understandable and straight forward tuition.

@robbtheth1rd Many thanks for the kind words, if it helps only a few people then it's all worth it. Stay tuned, more is coming but its better to produce material of real quality rather than mass produce click bait.

Yes that can be an issue, which is why pairing willow and generals pencils work so well as both have a subtle blue/grey hue which can be off set using a warm buff tone paper.

You are more or less right, sight size is simply drawing at the size you see, you can be close or far away the distance dosent matter. Setting up an easel next to the model obviously works if you are drawing a portrait for example but if you are drawing the whole figure? Well you need a full size piece of paper (or canvas). This exercise is actually used in the Russian schools but but not so common in European schools. Instead the easel is moved far enoh back that the figure is contained within the constraints of the paper. I hope this makes sense

@@Drawathome yes it does, I understand it better now, thank you for your explanation.

Many thanks for your reply and yes you are absolutely correct, Van Gogh is considered a post impressionist

Yes it is truly an amazing learning resource, but one that is often misunderstood as a simple mindless coping exercise. Delve a little deeper and there is a wealth of information and knowledge.

Please feel free to use this video in your lessons, knowledge should be there for all!

Hi pdpete, they did indeed generals pencils are really just a more controlled version of conte sticks and easier for most beginner students to handle.

@@Drawathome Ah I see, Thank you for clarifying I am excited for the next part in the series

Part 3 will be out very shortly!

Not long now Helmut!

Many thanks, we are glad you enjoyed it!

Hi Kristoffer, you are in luck the full Charles Bargue course can be downloaded at Archive.org archive.org/details/C.BargueDrawingCourse also high resolution versions can be found here www.flickr.com/photos/martinoconnor/albums/72157629719283605

Hi Robert, arguably the biggest mistake students make is rushing to get to the end, forgetting it is everything in the middle which is the most important part! Whilst the method of enveloping isnt always easy, it does force you to think through every step. Happy drawing!

Hi Helmut, The cast is not included but will be available soon to buy, but please do contact us on Draw At Homes website and we will see what we can do!

Hi Helmut, the model used is the Mabef M36 Sculpture Trestle. This has an adjustable height but also a strong sturdy base. These tall trestles are essential for creating a suitable working environment.

Many thanks Helmut, learning the traditional approaches to drawing and painting can be very hard and expensive. We hope that our new courses and lessons will give you the student all the information you need- most importantly in an affordable manner! We will be realising many more videos over the coming months.

@@Drawathome i am looking forward to your Videos. It is not easy to find good and structured tutorials in order to learn like in the academy

Many thanks, we hope you enjoy!

Thanks Lisandro!

Thanks AMS, its important students know the history of what they are learning.

Yes those photographs are a real treasure trove! Really shows how adaptable comparative measurement really is compared to other techniques.

Too kind Joni!
