    This is really useful ... the tools and tips and seeing the drawing progress work really well together. I also start out determined to focus on one area but find myself jumping around as I see things I want to pick up... and I also love drawing the collars! It's nice to have the harder surfaces to draw. Thank you for taking the time to record this. It's very helpful.

    Just had a customer ask for a pet portrait in pencil. I mostly work in oils or pastel pencils, in colour. I thought..hmm...could be challenging so found your video to give me an idea on how to proceed and what to focus on...just bought some mechanical pencils...never used them before. So I'm learning soemthing new. Thanks very much and you are very talented...and patient, a lot of work and detail.

    Re the Staedlter pencil - it is only the really soft grades that have a higher carbon content 7b and above. Although I am given to understand that new stock 2023 no longer have the carbon. This is because they now have been replaced by their ‘black’ range.
    Like your work.

  • @hollyhunterart

    Really great video Grace!! Some really useful tips too, I’ll definitely be giving that triangle fur technique ago! 😄💜
    Also you should try the Staedtler Mars Lumograph Black pencil range, use the 6B and you’ll get a really nice dark shadow tone from that. That range has a high proportion of carbon in them! 💜

    • @gracemurrayart
      @gracemurrayart  3 года назад +2

      Thanks so much Holly- glad you found some use in it! Ahhh maybe that's where I was going wrong with the lumograph ones.. I don't think I got the 'black' range! x

      I know this ages ago but th Staedtler 5,6,7 and 9hard super dark and very smooth. They blend really well with over the other ranges.
      You can get the staedtler leads in 0.5 and 0.7 in all the grades.
      It's pronounced Stet-ler
      And Koo-i-Nor, try their solid graphite pencils, no wood. Can be good for paying larger are for blending

I had an Old English Sheepdog that we lost last year and doing a portrait of him is what got me motivated to do more than doodling's and sketches. I also have a Boxer that I'm trying hard to do a detail drawing of and video has helped. Thank you again for the videos!
