Thank you sir for teaching young men like I the art of drawing. I started watching your videos yesterday and I already have like 20 journal pages of sketchings of all different sorts. In total in one day I have done about 40-50 random sketchings and I'm excited to draw even more today. It's a shame this channel isn's better known, but I'm sure it wil grow. Wish you all a great day, and keep drawing.
Keep it up!!
And old ladies like me!
Same here, i draw everyday since i watch this series 5 days ago
I have a dedicated sketchbook and do these every morning!
I think the hardest part is saying “I screwed it up, but who cares?”. That is the lesson for me. Perfectionist….guilty!!
These are more than lessons, they feel like support, gentle and kind. 💛 Thank you.
Glad you like them!
I've known what negative space *is* for a very long time conceptually, but what I really appreciate about this video is the why and how being so thoughtfully discussed and illustrated (pun not intended). What a useful thing, to have that tool to draw on (pun still not intended) when flummoxed by what I'm wanting to draw! Thank you very much.
that one was harder, I would lapse into drawing the outline of the chair, then had to keep reminding myself to concentrate on the negative space. Took a bit to really see the squares in the chair. Got there in the end yeehaa! Thankyou for another great lesson Danny, you are a wonderful teacher 🙃
Your calmness is amazing. I feel your teaching skills and they encourage me to do what you say! The negative space I always thought I understood it. But this video made me realize I really didn’t. Now I have a much better understanding of its importance. Thank you. Karen Dirmish, learner
You are so welcome!
I learned about negative space a LONG time ago, didn't really get it, never thought about it again. I'm 32 and having spent years self-teaching and messing with things like character design, this helps IMMENSELY in the first 5 minutes. I too have felt EXACTLY what feeling he's describing, and it's put me off from drawing things I love like buildings and scenes. But this makes it much, much more manageable somehow. It's like magic.
This was amazing. I knew about negative space but had not really used it much. I did 2 rather simple sketches after watching this video. Then I tried something very complicated--a very small Art Nouveau picture frame. It turned out surprisingly well, and I could not have done it without drawing the negative spaces first!
Your tips are always so helpful. They actually helped me draw a few pieces successfully which i have not been able to do it before . Thanks a lot ❤
I like the concept of drawing the negative space, thanks for the example. As I was watching it become apparent to me, or at least this was how I rationalize it in my mind, when you got towards the bottom of the chair, there was a shift. The floor had become more detailed than the chair, making it easier to assess the chair as the negative space. I think this was my take away from the video, and something I have gained. Thanks…
Wow. I pray as part of my art practice & I'm now feeling I am blessed to have found this series as one last bit of research/ study while cleaning, before resuming hands on art. 1 metaphorical painting i intend to do involves a chair very similar in structure to the 1 in this video & i didn't realize the power of negative space to this degree. Thanks!
I've just read your Danny's Essays email. What fabulous achievements and obstacles you have overcome in 2023 👏 I've loved reading your emails/essays, and watching your videos this year, they have been so inspiring. A big happy 2024 to you and your family Danny! 🎉
Thank you so much!
Thank you! You gave me confidence in myself. I draw and I like it.
That's great! Keep going.
Great to be here
Thank you for sharing your incredible art and dedication ❤❤❤❤
This was interesting but became quite challenging. I’ll need to do more of these.
Excited to try this. Although I’ve heard of this before I’ve never had it explained. Thank you Danny. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas 😊
Happy holidays!
My chair is doing a split. 😂
Thank you very much for you work, Danny! Planning to Take Part in Your courses. Greetings from a Spanish woman Germany❤️
Have fun!
Thank you very much! I am learning a lot from you 🎉

My rudimentary understanding in fooling my visual is to see things in 2D. If i could faithfully copy this 2D visual, and if dimensions and angles are not messed up, it might look 3D on paper 🤣
