Marco - I am taking this class along with several others you have, Love them and you are a great instructor - THANK YOU! Can you do a video about how to do confident lines? Especially on digital devices? I find my lines are not as confident and seem choppy - thoughts?
@@SusanKnause Thanks, Susan! As I continue to produce chapters 4-5 of the class, I will be sure to include snippets about confident lines in there :) Then, after the class, if you have any specific questions, feel free to email me! Could be a good subject for a YT video, actually.
marco's lessons are the best. You can feel his love for art but also love for teaching in all his videos and this energy is passing to you as well. Both his youtube channel and site lessons are amazing
its kinda wise to get a medical skull. I couldn't find that one you got asaro? but thats ok. I really like the way you pointed out important things about the mouth area which i have to go back and correct. Very helpful Thanks.
Finally somebody made a video on how to draw that nebulous area between the lips and the jaw, I feel like I've been waiting my whole life for this. None of this ever made any sense to me until now, thanks Marco! 💪
I guess people overlook mouth because there are SO MANY subtlety in the shapes, like, those little lines curving up at the corners, I had no ideia they where there, and this big ball on the face where the mouth sits, I never really took it in consideration, I knew it exists, but I treated it as a different part of the face, I think that's because we are all so obsessed with obvious facial features and forget about the subtle planes and how they afect the mouth nose and eyes, the eye socket used to cause this effect on me. This is a very good video Marco, feels like I learned so much well done
Hello Marco! Thank you very much for your work; it is very inspirational to me. If I might ask, do you have plans to record videos for other facial features (eyes, nose etc.)? Thank you in advance, have a magical rest of the day! :)
In the last two day since watching the video i kept practicing drawing the mouth and this video is soo helpful!! i never noticed the mouth pillars before so painting it was super fun and started observing the shape you decriped in other paintings and people walking passing me,it is quite noticable. i feel i have leveled haha. I hope you do tutorials on other structures of the face all of them are hard💀 thank you marco for this amazing tutorial!! 💛
I don't know if this will help or not... BUT I tend to start from the middle and work outward on faces, rather than try to outline and fill. Once you get "proportion" you can measure just about everything from "eye-lengths" (from corner to corner as if the eye is the stereotyped "football" shape)... Yes, you CAN still shape the eyes ANY shape you like. The "football" is a "symbolic ideal" of the eye, only to give values to "eye-length" and "eye-width"... SO the basics... The eyes are 1 eye-length apart, forming the "bridge" of the nose. The nose is about 1.5 eye-lengths from the top of the bridge to the nostril-plane. (there's tolerance between 1.4 and 2.0, tending toward 2 or even more as the face ages) The philstrum is about .5 eye-length (or roughly an eye-width, if we're in famously Greek "golden proportions" of 2:1)... The "no-man's land" below the lower lip is roughly equal to the philstrum, to the "upper crease" of the chin.... and the chin is about an eye-length from the lower lip to its point in females, and about 1.5 eye-lengths in males... Eye-width's CAN be substituted for any of the "half" eye-lengths as you see fit. The trick to this as an "advanced" method is CONSISTENCY within the face you're drawing. If you substitute the eye-width for (say) the philstrum (the space between nose and upper lip/center) then you probably SHOULD do the same below the lower lip... AND special bonus is that through a slight shift in eye-shape and substitution, you CAN fight that infamous "same face syndrome" some artists bitch and whine about... haha Similarly, some faces have about half an eye-length from the outer corners of the eyes to the edge of the face, at the temples... Others have closer to 3/4's of the eye-length. You CAN simply substitute your eye-width (in THAT face), which is part of how artistically "styling" a face can have wildly varying results with a little play. AND the forehead... usually about 1.5 eye-lengths from the brow ridge and upper bridge of the nose to the hairline in males... It's similar in females "technically" but females tend to use "bangs" to cover and obscure this. Apparently, there's a notion of attractiveness for females with less forehead (brain space?) BUT it's easy to let this one get really fiddly before you hit "uncanny valley"... SO I've always gone with 1.5 eye-lengths to "rough it in" and then farted around with hair to "fix it" or refine the look I'm after. Human ears are usually aligned about with the eye-brows and the nostril-plane of the nose, but there's a little variability to "eye-ball" it, and with "other humanoids" all bets are off... Mostly, I just find that if I start by establishing a strong sense of the nose and eyes, the rest of the face ALMOST draws itself, leaving me just the minor detail of pushing the pencil or stylus around. Symmetry can be a bit of a bitch, but the reality is that nobody is quite "perfectly symmetrical" anyway, so RELAX and remember to breathe. I believe in you. You CAN get this whole "face thing". They're fiddly, but that's at least half the charm... and a HUGE chunk of the accomplishment and satisfaction you'll find DOING them. I do hope you find something helpful... At least, I can hope it was mildly entertaining, and you could get a good chuckle between now and the next useful video you happen upon. ;o)
Not getting why you are keeping the front and side views the same length? You even use a cylinder and on that cylinder the mouth is less the half the length when viewed from the side? ForSHORTENED the side view NEED to be SHORTER by more then half? Great video though.
i can paint eyes and mouths pretty ok but noses are 😭😭.... I don't know how they work, but honestly this video helped me with noses too with its basic ideas being taught, ty dude!!
This is the best tutorial for drawing the mouth area I have seen . I have been looking for ten plus years. I am very lucky to have found you. I love your style of teaching. Thank you.
Please do this for the nose😢 ı know the structure of it but i can not handle it at all. Probably it is not to clear to see structure in many people. Like myself. I can not see the shapes on it.
Dude, you explain things so clearly and concisely, and I love your videos. Just commenting to make sure you know you’re appreciated. Your vids always make me want to go and draw. Gonna go grab a pencil and some paper right now!
Thank you so much for yet another splendid tutorial. This was really helpful. Guess I'm just gonna sit down and practice mouths today. I very much recommend Marcos classes by the way. If you are going to buy just one online class in your life, I sincerely recommend the class called "Digital Painting II". Never mind if you are not into digital painting - it is just an abundance of useful and inspiring knowledge.
I love how he always emphasizes the infos that most people aren't aware of but which give the right way of thinking about the subject. The only thing I thought would help make the lips look less "stamped onto the face" that wasn't included were those small light reflection spots on certain edges. But still, very nice and thorough explanation.
Hi, just stop by saying that your course "the art of color and light" had helped me so much professionally and I'm a better designer because of that. please keep up your good work

Wake up babe marco bucci uploading a new video
Same
thank you honey ... (actually very happy)
Thank you, i was struggling with this feature.🙏
The shape is similar to stretched rib cage 😁
Hey, eyes don't rhyme with south.
This is one of the best tutorials on drawing mouths I've ever seen. Thank you very much Marco!
This!!
Not really
Agreed!! Thank you so much for breaking it down into planes and shapes. Makes it much easier to visualize especially with the cylinder
marco's lessons are the best. You can feel his love for art but also love for teaching in all his videos and this energy is passing to you as well. Both his youtube channel and site lessons are amazing
Thanks a lot :)
Great video, Marco. Teaching people the hard stuff, one part at a time.
Thanks a lot, Mark!

15:24 you're telling me tha this is NOT premium content??? there's better content??? unbelivable.
Thanks mr.bucci you helped so many of us on how to draw 👍

This is a very good video Marco, feels like I learned so much well done
Imagine my shock when I realized I was having trouble drawing mouths today and I see this video pop up on my feed….stop reading my mind Marco!
The thing I struggle most with it's not mouth exactly, but nose bridge :( I can't paint it how I want to
Marco you are a incredible teacher, so grateful for all that I've learned from you
This will help so much on my quest to draw juicy lips worthy of Kooleen-senpai. ✨👄✨
My biggest issue is drawing mouths that look emotive, instead of plain looking mouths with insanely massive lips
0:53 Homer Simpson is that you?
Hello Marco! Thank you very much for your work; it is very inspirational to me. If I might ask, do you have plans to record videos for other facial features (eyes, nose etc.)?
Thank you in advance, have a magical rest of the day! :)
I will, yup!
@@marcobucci thank you Marco! Cant wait :) Have a nice day!
Marcoooo could do You do one of the nose planes? This content it's so important THANKS
I thought it was going to be the nose, because the end of the nose gives me fits. .o
I just slap on one of these and call them a silly character: 3
Why did he read my mind I was literally just having a meltdown drawing a mouth and I open my phone to see a notification to this video😭
so that's why my lips looked like ass.

The hardest part for me are actually the eyes 💀
Oeh this comes at the right time. Been struggling with mouths lately!
watched 3 tutorials about lips so far, and this is the most informative for me, thanks 🥰
Hands down the clearest art teacher I’ve come across- this is how you break down drawing in simple terms!!! 👏🏼👏🏼
Absolutely phenomenal tutorial - As always
Thank you Marco for helping me and countless others ♥
Amazing teachers like Marco is why the art industry is oversaturated and competitive as fuck. So many nine year olds know how to draw mouths now!
Seriously, I believe you are the reason I got into Art School in the first place. Thank you so much!
Your teaching style is awesome literally i was enjoying and learning from your video . ❤❤
Not getting why you are keeping the front and side views the same length? You even use a cylinder and on that cylinder the mouth is less the half the length when viewed from the side? ForSHORTENED the side view NEED to be SHORTER by more then half? Great video though.
i can paint eyes and mouths pretty ok but noses are 😭😭.... I don't know how they work, but honestly this video helped me with noses too with its basic ideas being taught, ty dude!!
Thank you so much; I could NEVER get a handle on drawing lips. Lol I actually feel like a pro now.
This is the best tutorial for drawing the mouth area I have seen . I have been looking for ten plus years. I am very lucky to have found you. I love your style of teaching. Thank you.
This is such an important thing to understand. I mean... and then the jaw opens wide, and that whole area get's stretched...😅 So part two maybe?😆
Woww, you must put so much work into these. Thank you for making these wonderful free videos
I think this video is overcomplicating everything quite a bit... still a good video
Reading the title I somehow thought that you're explaining while rhyming the word "south"
0:35 Tell me, Mr Bucci, what good is a phone call if you're unable to speak?
Please do this for the nose😢 ı know the structure of it but i can not handle it at all. Probably it is not to clear to see structure in many people. Like myself. I can not see the shapes on it.
that's why I still draw anime mouths... one line :)
but yeah got to work on mouths + all other anatomy
*newbie*
Are you going to make a tutorial on how to draw eyes? I love this tutorial it's easy to understand
I find noses the most difficult. Especially from different angles.
THANKS MARCO THIS JUST CHANGED MY LIFE lol
Marco: "I know the facial feature most people struggle with, it's not the eyes.
Marco and I in unison: "It's the MOUTH"
"It's the NOSE"
Could you please make more watercolor painting videos?
Awesome Video Marco Thanks ! for Sharing
I literally just struggled with a portrait doing the lips and this was in the top of my for you page lil
It's over for artists. I wish there was no AI. Now I'll have to get a boring job 😭
Thanks for the info (Happy Good Friday) 👍🙏
Woow! Very good! You can draw anything or everything!
Absolutely perfect video!!!! Thank you!!!
The frog in Tom Holland's mouth is coming in clutch for this one.
Man, i adore your clases! It true have unlocked a lo of skills in me!
But NOSE does not rhyme with south... oh, wait a minute.
Dude, you explain things so clearly and concisely, and I love your videos. Just commenting to make sure you know you’re appreciated. Your vids always make me want to go and draw. Gonna go grab a pencil and some paper right now!
That's great to hear, and what I aim for when I make vids! Thank you!
👁👄👁
Great video thanks Mr.Bucci

Saved! incredibly helpful 😩
Thanks so much. This was really helpful.

U made me touch my own lips too much. Thx!
The muncher has taken the second place for me after the nose
9:18 Send this part to a friend without context.
Thanks , been strugling with these things a lot .
Excellent video, thanks 👍
Was that a John Wick reference (the thumbnail)
Awesome information about mouth!❤
The mouth?! It's gotta be the eyes, or is it just me? 😩
Ah yes! The "anus". My favorite part of the human. 🧐 I am an expert after all.
Cringe
great, helpful video Marco!,
I have hard time drawing expressions, especially mouth movements, do you consider making video about this
@10:30 well for me I will remember the shape as "balls"
Ok, i need to think more about planes
thank you for this detailed explanation
Oh boy can't wait to learn how to draw a drouth
Pls make one for eyes in perspective!
Iron-Deficiency Tom Holland
What about when someone is smiling
great video! I love the way it was explained
Damn. I was having a hard time drawing mouths before. Something was missing but this video made it click for me.
Thank you!!❤
Thanks Much for overlaying the lines. Often times the video is hard to follow due to soft strokes. Excellent detailed explanation!
Thanks again
So nice Marco very deep and correct! Thank you so much!.
PD. The jason's mouth example 😆
He's back. Thanks Marco!
Super informative, Marco. I think of the shape - not as a pumpkin, but an XBox Controller 😄
This dude's a fucking legend
Yes I´m here to learn how to draw the fouth
Thank you so much for yet another splendid tutorial. This was really helpful. Guess I'm just gonna sit down and practice mouths today.

it does not need to be this complicated
