I quit drawing as a kid even though I was told by teachers and family I was really good. I let mean kids discourage me from pursuing art and now at 33 I’m getting back into drawing. Your video is very helpful 🙂
aww I'm glad that you came back on doing what you love. I also stoped and idk when to start yet cuz life's been so busy but I'm starting on what do I need and going back to basics
Me too n that's how I found this video did a couple drawings the other day n want to take it up a notch. I stop drawing when I started learning how to shade,if I had learnt that I wouldn't have stopped. 30 now but trying to get to what I love as a kid
I also quit drawing when I was 17. It is by far the bigest mistake I've done in my life and the only I have really regreted. I got back into drawing at 41 years old (1 year ago). Stories of our life, at ;least on that part, are the same! Only the numbers of years are different! I've seen huge improvement, in only one year of watching videos and practicing. Every 3 months, the drawings I was proud for,suddenly. look poor and I love, that this repeats with time!! The more I draw, the better I become. I hate when people keep saying,that it's all about talent,there is NO talent, it's only how much studing and hard work you've put into it!! It's all about how much you love anything you do!!
You should try the Art-n-Fly mechanical eraser! Just got one and it’s incredible! It also comes with 51 refills, all for $10! Here’s a link: www.amazon.com/Battery-Operated-Electric-Refills-Graphite/dp/B07BH3K287
I never took art in school although art is my favourite thing in this world and now I regret it. I recently had a miscarriage a few months ago so sunk into a deep depression and getting back into art has really helped me and so have your videos so thank you💗I’ve learnt a lot from you!
1. Clicked the video 2. She went straight to the pointers I was looking for 3. Demonstrated all of this under 6 minutes (ignoring the 5 seconds) 4. Received great insight Kirsty you're a beauty! 😎
My mother is artist like u and mine and hers favorite channel is yours I spent hours to watch you , you are a great artist and teacher at same time I’m so glad that I have found your channel please keep what you do I love you so much u have full support from me and my mom we love you
Line B the synthetic brushes are soft enough imo to use to sweep the graphite into the tooth of the paper without damaging the surface. I think Kirsty also mentions using them in a recent video. After I leave this comment, I'll find out which one it was and let you know. Feel free to google using paintbrushes for blending though. The tombow I use for picking out highlights in eyes or hair. Really anything I want a strong highlight on. The kneadable eraser I use for soft highlights with soft edges.
Line B OK its called "best ways to blend graphite pencils" ruclips.net/video/5IZQsOxTDio/видео.html I've used brushes for years bc I love how soft the results are. Also bc I have water soluble graphite too. Any cheap pack of soft brushes from Walmart will do to start out learning to blend with them. Fluffy brushes are nice too.
I appreciate videos with dense information and meaningful content, so many videos now never get to the point and are filled with rambles/sponsors/ads that take up the majority of the video, so thanks, very helpful video!
Best drawing and sketching supplies list: Pentel Graphgear 500 0.5mm,is the best pencil for drawing!!! Best Drawing paper, is the Hahnemuhle Dessin 150gsm (quality that leaves you speechless!). For finished work that is going to be sold, best paper is: Arches Hot pressed watercolor paper. Lead holders are a "must", Kohinoor 5340 for sketching and Faber Castell TK4600/9400 for drawing, are the best in the market.(For beginers, choose Kohinoor 5347 lead holder,instead of the 5340) Tip: Use the same leads as the pencil brand, on each pencil, they also make the best leads and you also get compatibility!!! Best Sketchbook: Canson 180 Artbook or Canson Universal (same paper on both) Best paperstump: Conte (trust me, they differ a lot from brand to brand.If you can't find Conte, get the Faber Castell. it's not as good, but it's better than most). Best kneadable eraser: LYRA Best Erasers: Faber Castell 187120 (the rest from that brand, are not that good). Tombow Mono Plastic (2 best erasers on the market,choose any of these 2). Tombow Mono Zero 2.3mm is essential PS: Those are the best drawing and sketching supplies you can get. (best in terms,reliability of quality and performance). Feel free to ask for erasers, sharpeners or anything else@@BONSAII_DRAWS
Yeah exactly.... like why? If someone disagrees they should comment why and maybe what they suggest. I think people just need to be negative towards someone or something to feel better. Idk love your content and its high quality. Have a great day.
Thats awesome. I'm gonna try out that black polychromus pen tomorrow, awesome tip! I'm combining soft charcoal with graphite sometimes, but I dont like the messyness of it, and also very hard to erase, if not impossible when it's gone deep enough.
Hi, Kirsty, I love your videos. Unless you have already done one, can you do a full step by step of the drawing in this vid. As I said, I love your work but this one just stands out for me. Keep up the fantastic work.
I don't use the very fine mechanical pencils but do use clutch pencils. Sometimes, depending on the piece, I prefer a blunt pencil, particularly when dealing with soft fur. Mechanical ones are a little to 'sharp' for my liking. I do use darker pencils and blending stumps... couldn't do without them. In fact, i once did a commissioned drawing of a dog using blending stumps almost exclusively. I had NOT thought to use a black polychromos so that's great to know. My Tombow Mono eraser is INVALUABLE!! Love it. I se it SO much. Thanks so much!
I really love all the videos you've posted especially to those watercolor tutorials and tips for beginners..Thank You so much that you made a yt channel about any kind of arts I'm always keep on update whenever you post another new video..Thank You!
This is super cool at first when I was reading the comments I thought only the hair must be good but when you ended up with it your sketch was mind-blowing and plus thanks for sharing all these tools, I was just looking for them
Your channel is phenomenal! Excellent information and techniques and your very fun to watch and listen too, im never bored. Im so grateful its free educatuon!
I have the eraser and it’s INCREDIBLE!!! It works better then a normal eraser in my opinion. Not good for erasing large areas though. But 100% would recommend it!
Es un placer verte dibujar, tienes buen arte y sabes enseñar, no me pierdo ninguno de tus vídeos. Muchas gracias por tus enseñanzas, te deseo muchos éxitos
Ángel Martínez Fuentes. Kirsty: (rough translation!) It is a pleasure to watch you draw, you have great art and you know how to teach, I never miss any of your videos. Thank-you very much for your lessons, your drawing works (is very successful!)
Its not that convinient, not gonna lie it did help with some details, but it ruins the paper, i use it as an eraser now than actually pressing on it with the motor, i'd prefer a steady eraser
yess I already have all of them 😍 So happy to hear you recommend the supplies I use... Now I just have to get as good as you and practise some more... Thank you for all your amazing tipps they are really helpful 😊
Your tips are the best! I have always used colored pencils... you are one of the 1st artist to really show the correct way to use graphite and now I am working with them and I am so much better because of your tutorials!! You're awesome... thank you so much!!😁
That was really helpful to me, I did not know the names of most of the supplies, and I have learnt now, and I'm really happy I can get anything I want from the stores
Pentel Ain Stein, 3B and 4B 0.5mm leads. can go as dark, as the darkest Faber Castell leads. Even their 2B can go really dark if you keep layering, or add a bit more presure.Add a Graphgear 500 0.5mm pencil and you have the best pencil for drawing!!! My favorite drawing paper, is the Hahnemuhle Dessin 150gsm (quality that leaves you speechless!). Another great choice, for finished work that is going to be sold, it's the Arches Hot pressed watercolor paper. For lead holders, Kohinoor 5340 for sketching and Faber Castell TK4600/9400 for drawing, are the best in the market.

I'm always doing my art with only only pencil but its way more difficult like shading wise or when you're making such highly detailed hair... And 100 years back too they had these kinds of pencil these are no fancy things these are just darker shades of pencil and an eraser that it... Like with a normal pencil you can't get that darker detail and if you'll try hard you'll end up destroying ur art... Trust me I'm an experienced in this one
Really helpful , thank you very much ... Your videos aren't boring as other RUclipsr .... Plz make a video on how to build the layer of different shades....it would be helpful thank you👌👌💕💕😇
i’ve used a cheap Target mechanical pencil, a pink eraser, and my finger for shading for all of my drawings. my drawings weren’t bad, but now that i know the materials i need, they’ll be much better!
Some people are faster learners than others.. I always use the tip of my pencil and move my thumb up to the rough point of reference.. remember it doesn't have to be 100%, use a light sketch first keep rubbing it out until you feel it looks right.. it's all about looking back and forth.. Also take a break then come back to it.. sometimes u won't see the problem... use a Hb or 2B to sketch out. Then add your B6 or B9 for a more darker tone. Don't for get the blending stump with the earser which Kirsty mentioned
Try to draw basic shapes to represent the diferent values/shades/tones from your reference. This will make it a lot easier to not mess up proportions. For example when drswing a portrait enclose the darkes points with shapes like circles/blobs. Then enclose the eyes and brows with bendy lines and some rough ones to be your strong points. Also, try and check the proportions ratios with the reference picture the most that you can and dont be afraid to erase or make corrections.
You could also take vertical lines as reference. The beggining of the eye will in most cases a little closer or directly alligned with the sides of your nose. Also with the pupil and lips (sides) use as reference. When drawing and trying to figure out the height of things on the face draw a rough sketch and try to figure out the lengths in halfs. For example, tje bottom of the lip will be the half in between the base of the nose snd the base of your chin. The eyes will be almost on the half of the top of your subject and the base of the chin. And things like that. If you want more help/reference just write me
Great tutorial, I liked the camera angle of the hair and model, and thanks for the information on the mono eraser there are plenty of times I have needed a finer eraser. Thank you.

I've been drawing with graphite for almost 7 years now, and never heard of that Eraser. Thanks! That's the final piece that I need for my artworks!😁

Nice but pls can make a video on how to draw hair
@69M views they are amazing
This hair shade is awesome..I ll try to practice this
Thanks for sharing and demonstrating your tools! You’re an incredible artist.
QOTD: What is your favourite drawing supply for your graphite drawings?
All material links are in the description 😊
Kirsty Partridge Art I LOVE THE BLACK CARAN D’ACHE LUMINANCE
Synthetic brushes for blending! I can't choose just one so I also hate to go without a kneaded eraser as well as my tombow.
Mary Tales how do you blend with synthetic brushes? I'm relearning drawing, so I'm generally curious. And what do you use the the Tombow for?
Line B the synthetic brushes are soft enough imo to use to sweep the graphite into the tooth of the paper without damaging the surface. I think Kirsty also mentions using them in a recent video. After I leave this comment, I'll find out which one it was and let you know. Feel free to google using paintbrushes for blending though. The tombow I use for picking out highlights in eyes or hair.

Line B OK its called "best ways to blend graphite pencils" ruclips.net/video/5IZQsOxTDio/видео.html I've used brushes for years bc I love how soft the results are. Also bc I have water soluble graphite too. Any cheap pack of soft brushes from Walmart will do to start out learning to blend with them. Fluffy brushes are nice too.
I just LOVE your organizing space.
Wow.
I ended up buying wooden trays, just to get some space put together to emulate your space
AND IT HELPED‼️
The details and texture of the hair is amazing. Thank you for sharing your tips and tools with us. Cheers!
Her: So I have all these 50 pencils...
Me: I draw with the smallest HB half a dollar pencil u ever saw in ur life
stg! sharpen mine with a box cutter lmao
I use tecondaroga pencils, its still not a $50 lead holder but they work for me
@@dixiegirlfox777 LMAOOOOOO
I use those pencils its quite good especially the pencil with the orange colored end? LoL xDDD
🤣🤣🤣
I can’t believe anyone could give a dislike to this video. Your drawings are absolutely amazing. They look more like photos than drawings.
Use sandpaper to clean blending stumps. Works like magic! 🌸
Just cut the tip off with a razor then use a pencil to push the end out and you have a brand new stump :D
@@shithead no that will ruin it that's the wrong way to do it use sandpaper
@@kashishbansal2496 it works fine for me
why? i just rub mine on an eraser and its as good as new.

I really enjoy all your videos. They are great and very informative. They have helped to make me a better artist.
4 dislikes are they crazy? This was really informative and the hair looks gorgeous
Katywu Ste LOL. Maybe it's because of the barcode label .
gavin Reid haha good one
Because she only provided 6 out of 50 tools? 🤔

Awesome info Kirsty. Such simple yet important information. I Always learn from you.
I just use a 2H pencil for outlines and 5B pencils for shading :/
3H for thin lines and 8b for shading :|
Edit: although I want to drop 3h to 6-7 h levels but I'm a potato and I'm too lazy to go out to buy lol
Panashe i just use one random pencil someone dropped in school for outlines and shading
I use only a graphite pencil for everything
2b for everything :/
Lol I have from 6H to 8B and a colored pencil

Thanks for the lead on the Tombow mono zero eraser!
thank you mrs. krusty!, everything you taught to us was really helpful!
Incredibly useful tips on products, thanks.
I have that Tombow eraser, and I LOVE IT!
A cheap alternative to blending stumps is earbuds or q-tips
They blend much better if u want that really soft smooth look
uuuh no they don't
before u fight me i've tried it before.
Am beginner now I hve decided to look for the supplies really had no idea the best you need to use for the drawing. I love kirsty Partridge art.
Tombow mono eraser is what i was searching for !!! Thanks a lot !

Ok now we really need to stop
Oh my. You are very talented and beautiful. Your accent drives me crazy....I love it.
If you can master a cheap pencil and eraser, that's a true artist. 100 years ago they didn't have all these fancy pencils and still had fantastic art.
100 years ago?
Geez I thought used high priced materials
I'm always doing my art with only only pencil but its way more difficult like shading wise or when you're making such highly detailed hair... And 100 years back too they had these kinds of pencil these are no fancy things these are just darker shades of pencil and an eraser that it... Like with a normal pencil you can't get that darker detail and if you'll try hard you'll end up destroying ur art... Trust me I'm an experienced in this one
They infact did not have this particular type of realistic art 100 years ago.
Im drawing my potraits with only a eraser and a normal pencil ✨️
ALL these things are in my checklist!
I'm so glad I watched this.
Hi Kirsty thanks for advising
Thank you Kirsty, this is an excellent video and you are a very good artist.
Thnx mam...i'm yo fan...U r d gr8 artist with simplicity in teaching...thnx for uploads...we all owe you...!!!

Tombow Mono Zero is like a secret weapon, favorite eraser. Thank you.
WOW...... What Talent .........God has blessed you
You are an incredible artist! Thank you for sharing.
Very nice drawing and suggestion for equipment, you are using.
Thank you from México! You are just so talented. I don’t know if I’ll ever be that good, but I will definitely keep on trying. 😁
Great video Kirsty, I'm gonna head out as soon as to buy and practice using most if not all of these😊👍
These seem like a must buy!
Everything you need is in the description. I hope you like them 💕😀

i’ve used a cheap Target mechanical pencil, a pink eraser, and my finger for shading for all of my drawings. my drawings weren’t bad, but now that i know the materials i need, they’ll be much better!
These tips will really help

Already have polychromos so that's a good thing

Thank you Kaleb, I'm glad you liked the video and thumbnail 💕😀
Can you do video about how to do accurate sketch?
It is very hard and it can realy help for me.
Great video!!
Practice is the key you learn in your own
Zurpsy true! I became I realistic artist within 3 months! It’s all about HOW LONG you practice :)
Some people are faster learners than others..

You are amazingly skilled!
