I’ve been explaining and showing this process to students in public and private schools as a full time art teacher going on 16 years. This one video may be the best explanation of drawing I have ever seen. Rock on dude.
Thank you so much for this video. Yesterday, I had an art exam and we needed to draw a hand, similar to this one, only at a different angle. Every day before the exam, I would practice this drawing, and the hard work definitely paid off. I used the same method with the simple shapes, and I was very impressed with my final products. Hopefully I will get into this school. I will edit this comment when I get the results!
I used this lesson with my sketch class for seniors. Seniors with no drawing experience did a wonderful job. I modeled and helped with minor corrections only. The tutorial is very easy to follow. Just paper, sketch board, eraser, and two sketch pencils. Very realistic and much easier than drawing your own hand, a standard lesson. Karen Robeson
I have sucked at art for all my life but with 2 hours put in to this I managed to create an extremely realistic looking hand, I can’t thank you enough 😊
Thanks for the lesson. This is the first realistic hand I ever attempted and it turned out much better than I had ever done before. The information and tips are great!
Thank you so much for this video!! As someone that has done cartoony art and stuff, I have never really tried realism. Now with this video you have gifted us with, I feel like I have a black belt in realism and shading. Thank you so much for this, and great drawing too!!
I've never had any luck with putting too much detail into my work too quickly. I always map it out first, just to see what I'm working with and what needs to be adjusted. Great hand video
Fantastic tutorial, thank you very much, you're a terrific teacher, finally someone who understand the difference between teaching how and showing how.
I'm taking a introductory class for drawing in college and the first day of class my professor walks in and says, "I'm just going to assume all of you all have had a drawing class before". I'm dead. I'm just dead. On top of that our homework is to draw 3 hands a week.
Such a simple thing, but seeing the hand as a square plus a triangle has helped, thank you. :-) Now I can draw the thumb a whole lot better than I could before.
There is always an easy way to explain things and a hard way. Teaching someone to draw like a robot is never going to be fun, either for the teacher or the pupil. It will leave them feeling satisfied but not for long, and ultimately they will lose interest. There are a few things important for learning how to draw. The most important thing is looking. Teaching someone how to look (and how to see) is the most crucial. You simply draw what you see. Technique is not important. It's only how to look. The rest is easy. The more you look, the more you see and the more you include the better (or more realistic) the result. The next part is contrast, getting the tones right. Whats the darkest part of the subject, what is the lightest? From there you can work out all the shades in between. The final part is accuracy, which an be solved by measuring at first, until it comes naturally.
Brilliant job, as always. 👓Thanks so much for your tutorials. 🎓 I think they're really going to help me improve my drawings.✏ Looking forward to more from this channel. Best wishes to you and yours. 💞
+Nancy Kelly Hi, an artist friend of mine was taking drawing lessons with me. She said she needed the drawing practice or you would get a badly drawn painting. This lesson was wonderfully presented, and I have taught hand drawing for years. Karen R.
I remember being told to shade fingers and such in a circular way (like contours) but your hand looks great even without that. I'm a beginner so now I have no idea what to think :-?. Thanks for sharing your videos they are great.
Thx. Currently struggling with shading of prespective drawings xD. But I like the circling more than one way lines because I can't get a grip on the control of linear lines it always looks weird when I do it. Well back to practice ;-).
aCup of Tea Hi! I run a drawing tutorial channel and have a site and Udemy course. Never shade in a circular way for anything. Always in a tight consistent zigzag motion. Take a look at my hand drawing upload for tips!
Matthew Celotto I agree. Art classes at school suck because lots of teachers aren't that talented. That's why they teach. I run a tutorial channel and site that might be helpful.
I' ve noticed that with varifocal glasses it's practically impossible to create propre contours ! Sometimes I cannot tell whether the line I'm looking at goes towards left or right! or rises or descends ....
when you say your concentrating on one part of the picture your currently on at any point are you saying your only focus is on the look of the particular peice of the picture you happen to be on or the whole picture just in small segments?
Thanks so much for sharing this detailed video. I'm a great fan of yours so I look forward to every e-mail of your videos etc. Your teaching techniques are fantastic...I was looking for such a video to refresh the shading techniques for hands and yours, as usual, provided exactly what I needed....keep it up, and thanks again.
Realistic?? In the drawing you have very dark and very light values on the same side of the hand (thumb vs. wrist). How about learning some basics before making tutorial videos? Try Proko's videos for instance. He knows how to do this properly.

One of the best instructional videos on pencil drawing I have seen, thanks greatly
Starting off by reducing the hand to shapes has been a real and helpful revelation for me!! thank you.
Trying to imitate your style of shading is sooo difficult T_T
Thanks for the lesson. This is the first realistic hand I ever attempted and it turned out much better than I had ever done before. The information and tips are great!
This video is very VALUABLE

I have been painting for years but am not good at drawing these lessons are very helpful. Nancy Kelly

Thanks very much. You explain the whole process patiently and explicitly which is very helpful.
:) It's the best tutorial I've used.

aCup of Tea - Start with learning circular shading. Use linear once you've mastered circular to add texture where needed.

Wow....just wow.
How many years have u been drawing
ended up just blending it with my figure
this is so freakin good and I did a pretty good job if I do say so myself 😆 (but no where near as better as yours)
Averi Stevens Check out my stuff too dude on my new channel. I'm an artist/illustrator and have my own Udemy course.
Great tutorial! It looks so real.
This is way better than my art class in school

Best tutorial ever, you got me as your follower. thank you.
Thank you for sharing. I found this video very helpful.
Thank you virtual instructor, I improved by 4 grades.
Hello there. I love your channel! The detailed narration is just beautiful! Have a lovely day.
good job explaining this was helpful!
I' ve noticed that with varifocal glasses it's practically impossible to create propre contours ! Sometimes I cannot tell whether the line I'm looking at goes towards left or right! or rises or descends ....
Mine is not as good as yours but I did a good job, thank you for explaining everything step by step 🙏🏽
how much has your drawing improved brother?
@@peaceuponyou4433 I havent drawn in years haha its so sad
I cant even find one art idea 😭 but you saved me
when you say your concentrating on one part of the picture your currently on at any point are you saying your only focus is on the look of the particular peice of the picture you happen to be on or the whole picture just in small segments?
I do appreciate your video. I find it very informative and educational. Thank you for sharing.

Amber Klonteig I know this comment is 2 years old but if you're still interested in shading techniques maybe my channel will be good for you!

That's awesome! Thanks a lot :)!
Nice and simple to follow, awesome.

U shut up no name
Bish u got attitude c:< I’ve always wanted to say that
@@mxstard2498 yas
I always struggle where to put the light and shadow to make it look realistic?!
normally if the light is coming from the left, the left should be quite light and the right side darker
This was really helpful! Thank you!
Im not here to learn. I just love seeing art getting formed
Thank you so much for the video. It is excellent.
My first drawing of a hand was a blob with two sausages amazing
Very helpful. Thank you :)
Thank you for your tutor ☺️.. 🥰
