    It was quite amazing to watch this sketch unfold. Looking at the photo, I would have been completely intimidated, wondering where in the world to begin. Thank you for your step by step breakdown. Much appreciated.

    Proportion measurements and minimal line work for the win! Thank you for making such a concise tutorial. 🙏

      I definitely agree. Wonderful technique or style. Loomis method is not for. This style resembles a bit to mine with imorovements. I'll definitely adopt those dots. Thanks for sharing.

    The eyes came Outta nowhere with a few simple moves. It came alive after that wowa. And dried water colour has this special life to it. It's such a simple thing, take colour add water but the way you use it is brilliant and needs to be respected. Seems easy but that's because of your talent and practice :)

    @Neiltendo.64 8 месяцев назад +12

    This is brilliant, thank you. Love the simple idea of using dots for scale. I tried to draw a teapot recently but the proportions were terrible, would’ve been much easier if I’d marked it out with dots first.

  • @WintaAssefa

    What a nice, straightforward tutorial. Your ink and watercolor art style is beautiful (it's actually what made me click the thumbnail, on the art style alone), and I love watching the techniques behind beautiful artwork. The dots and proportion estimates are a great way to visualize without having to sketch with a pencil first, and I'll certainly be giving it a try myself! I've only used watercolors once in my life, but I've been wanting to try them again. I see you have a tutorial about watercolor washes, so I'm probably headed there next. Thanks for sharing!

  • @kristinaleid2871

    As always Scottie, that was interesting, useful and enjoyable to watch!
    I think a lot of people find portrait drawing the most intimidating - there is such a small margin for error. Everyone knows exactly how a face should look; the proportions and the relation of the features.
    It was interesting to see how carefully you added each line, and with just a few key lines the face took shape.

    I have always wanted to make this style of art work but am too art illiterate on how people do it. It’s very helpful to watch than just drawing a circle, i prefer these dots as reference points because it challenges my observation on portraits. Thank you 👍❣️

    I think this is more useful for people who are already a bit skilled rather than newcomers. I'm starting to feel more confident with my sketches but if I went all linework right from the beginning without guidelines and the skeleton it would come up very inconsistent because I haven't developed a deep sense of space like you have.
