That tutorial really rocks!
+Boss Godfrey I see what you did there. :)
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYY👈👈
I personally dislike you now
Ayyyyyyyy, nice pun mate.
At least I think its a pun
2021 and it's still solid.
Your technique of reducing complex items to basic shapes has been most helpful. Thanks you for taking the time to produce these tutorials. Awesome!
+Keith Thompson no problem at all
+Keith Thompson yessssss frrrr
Thank you! What a great teacher. You are so calm, consistently and you simplfy things so that people can really grasp it. Fabulous. Glad I found you.
thanks so much : )
couldn't agree more!
I don't think anyone to disagree with fat :3
Alphonso,
It has been 8 years since you did this vid.Today is 8/22/21,you touched a general contractor today.I am getting ready to do pool or yard rockscapes.Just letting you know,you are a key to my progress.THANK YOU.
I never thought I could draw. But after just watching the first five videos, I have a really fair amount of understanding of what it means to communicate through art. Thank you so much Alphonso. Thanks for making everything so clear and easy to follow. We love every second of it.
This is definitely one of the best drawing channels I've come across
This video was incredibly helpful, you ACTUALLY explain the concept, and how it can be done from the most basic way unlike some others who just jump in, and start shading and doing all those stuff, it almost looked more like a speed drawing rather than an ACTUALLY TUTORIAL.
Good job.
Best tutorial so far. Straight to the point, very clear, if you follow from beginning to end it’s surprising how much you’ve progressed!
I'm from Brazil. I've never seen anyone teaching this way. You are an incredible teacher. I love your drawings and teachings.
This helped helped a lot it made my drawings much better and realistic pls keep up the good work
most definitely will..glad it helped
Nice job explaining it so easily! I love rocks and boulders and hills and will use this technique to play around with drawing them.
Great video on light, shadow, basic hatching, and a more visual understanding of the contour you are drawing! Thanks for giving me more perspective on my work!
One of the best tutorials I have seen. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Best drawing teacher. You take the mystique out of drawing and make it understandable. THANK YOU 🙏
*_Thanks,_* I was struggling to draw rocks but now I actually draw them way better now.
I'm so glad I stumbled into your channel, amazing skill, easy to understand! thank you!
This was wonderful Mr. Dunn. Exactly what I needed to know to draw my rocks accurately. Thanks for making this!
Thanks a lot for the tutorial! I'm trying to draw a Manga and quickly realized that rocks, trees and textures have to be drawn as frequently as faces and figures.
This really helps.
wow id never drawn rocks in my life but 20 mins with this and i made some cool little boulders!
Thank you so much Mr. Dunn, your tutorial helped me to finally grasp what I was having a hard time with.
Thank you so much for your videos, they are very good and helpful. Keep bringing them in!
Just to spend a few seconds, thanking you again for your tutorials, it's the bare minimum I can do!! *****, you rock!!! (pun… intended!!!! lol)
Lol thanks for taking the time to comment
Thank you so much. You're a great teacher. Your explanations and demonstrations were extremely helpful and important concepts.
Just discovered your tutorials. Great and so helpful. I really like the way you are teaching. Thanks.
Kate Abbe thanks. Glad you enjoy them
Wow!! This tutorial is old, but I am very pleased with your teaching and calmness. I could Not draw a rock B4, to save my life, but your breaking the steps down into shapes and showing how to apply an understanding of light source principles REALLY HELPED...NOW, my rocks look like rocks...thank you so much Alphonso!!
I have watched tons of videos on how to draw / paint rocks with no sucess and because of your tutorial I finally got it !
Thanks again, Alphonso! Great demo.
Thank you! This video was very helpful and taught me a lot.
Extremely marvellous way of teaching
This is a blessing, I'm a landscaper learning how to draw and this tutorial is my favorite. If you have any more regarding drawing rocks and boulders I'm all for it. Thank you so much.
Youre welcome : )
I bought both of your books and will buy the next one also. they are beautiful works and very helpful, thx!!
I have been drawing for a while now, for my own enjoyment, not professionally. Sometimes my drawings come out very well, but other times I am very dissatisfied with them. What I mean is that I am not consistent. I couldn’t really figure out why, until I watched some of your videos on shading. I never considered the idea of using basic forms as the foundation of my drawings. After practicing for a very short while, I can honestly say that I am consistently turning out better work with less effort then I ever have before. Especially with drawing mountains. You provided me with the key that I have been searching for. I know it is a simple concept, but it is something that I have somehow failed to realize on my own. Thank you. These videos are a real godsend to someone like me. You are helping a lot of artists with your work and it is much appreciated. I wish you the best
thanks so much : )
great advice, i had trouble drawing rocks. thank you
Okay, I left a comment on a different video earlier explaining how I had been trying to learn to draw for over a year andthat I still wasn't "getting it"... and I felt so frustrated!. I've gone back to these more basic videos again and now after her re-watching them, I'm feeling a bit more confident. I feel like I'm getting it more. I have stuck with your tutorials and I think your work is just brilliant! I want to thank you for making these tutorials and helping me do something I've wanted to do for years, and that is learning how to draw.
Great technique, very simple and accurate.
Hey Alphonso,
That's the best tutorial, I have always been crap at drawing rocks and now you have given me the skills. Thanks
Glad I could help
This is a gem of a tutorial, Thank u!
These videos are so awesome... i feel like im learning something useful
about drawing for the first time
Mr Dunn
Thank you! Your commonsense approach to teaching the subject of art really clicks with me, it is clear and easily understood. I can see my skills improving rapidly as I watch your videos and practice your demonstrations. I will order your books today; I could not find it at my local B&N Store.
Thank you again for passing on your knowledge and experience with your you tube followers.
Cheers and Happy New Year! 2022

Your examples and explanations are those of someone who processes the skills of a teacher. Thank you for sharing your skills.
+4vinos Thanks and you're very welcome :-)
Fantastic presentation
Thanks for sharing
Look forward to next one
You're such a good teacher...many thanks...
this is an excellent demonstration. Thank you so much!!
Alphonso, you are brilliant. Thanks for the lesson, this was a huge step for me.
Glad I could help. Now continue to make more steps : )
Ahhhhh, this makes everything so simple! Thanks a ton, sir! I can finally draw rocks. You've earned yourself a subscriber!
+abenito206 very welcome :-)
Thanks Alfonso, great tutorial. I think for a newbie like myself the greatest danger with complex/organic shapes would be over working it. I guess a competent artist knows when to finish and not spoil what they have already done. Thanks once again.
This is genius. Thank you for this simple tutorial!
I have watched many different drawing tutorials, and your teaching videos are by far the best that I have ever seen. You clearly are very talented as an artist, but you are also a great teacher. I like the way you break down a complex task into simple steps. Keep up the, great work! Thanks for sharing!
Another supurb tutorial man. Only half way through the scenary course and its already improved my drawing something crazy!
cool! Keep progressing!!
You are the best teacher! So easy to listen to!
🙂
Thank you Sir, the best tutorial ever on how to sketch rocks...
Good teacher!
Sheila England thanks
I really do enjoy your instruction. I work a lot in pen & ink, and when I get stuck or just need a little reminder or something clarified in my head, your method is really clear. I like the way you draw as well.
Good job, and thanks!
thanks :-)
I live by the sea with many rocks and love painting seascapes but have trouble with painting rocks. So glad and thankful for your clear and excellent teaching and can now start with a different approach. You are the best! Greetings again from Lamberts Bay West Coast South Africa!
awesome! Glad I was able to help. Enjoy your drawing. I hope you'll be able to create satisfying and wonderful drawings : )

Hi, Alphonso! Im really thankful for this tutorial. Gonna watch more)))
🙏
Always wanted to draw with pen and ink. Love the stile. But never had any skills or technique. I work with wildlife in Brazil and keep a "naturalist journal" for many years now. Always wanted to draw in it. Saw this video and these tutorials starting from the very basic (a cube!!!) called my attention. I gave it a try and in half an hour following it step by step I was able to draw a rock I never thought I would be able to. Many, many thanks!!! Your tutorial stile is amazing!
I love hearing stories like this. Thanks so much for the feedback! :-)
Nice tutorial! Thanks
just awesome...tnks
Amazing technique, thanks a lot!
+Fredy Andrade Thanks
Thanks great tutorial.
Wish school would have taught in such a simple way. My drawing went from a bad with random shadows to something with actual form. Needs a bit of improvement but nonetheless it's much better than before. Thanks for the tutorial.
Learnt so much from this one guy.
Wonderful video! I have always had trouble with drawing rocks and such and this has helped me greatly. Thank you so much! :) I will definitely be recommending you to my friends!
Thanks much
We had a geometrical nonsense to a artwork of rock.
Just splendide
This is amazing!! Drawing rocks was part of a big project of a club that I was in at school, so I am practicing Mountains and Rocks so I can get more details about them. I just want to say a big Thank You! (:
Very welcome : )
Thank you soo much now I love to draw more than before
Alphanso Sir, You are Great!! I am a big fan of yours.
Thankyou so much.
glad to know you are. Thanks :-)
made the rocks so simple for me. amazing tutorial
🙂🙏
very useful tip. Thanks a lot...
Thank you so much this is such a helpful video
excellent sir, thank you very much for this video
master Alphonso ! can u give some tip about render cloud, mountain and rock cliff
Hi Alphonso, love your tutorials (and your book, which I have). I'm practising rendering rocks but then wondered how I would render rocks slightly sunk in say, wet sand! I'm not having too much success with that, wondered if you have any tips for objects slightly submerged into soft ground? Thank you.
+Kathleen Hancock hmmm....wish I could see some of your drawings to really tell. Try sending them to my FB. In the meantime, try to think of the sand like water or a soft blanket wrapped around the rock and render it just the same except with alittle variation in the texture. Let me know if that helped
Very nice! Thanks 😀
