Watch Me Draw a Horse…

I enjoy watching other artists draw stuff so I figured I'd dust off the old video camera post something of my own. There's no audio... maybe I'll get brave enough and slap a mic on for the next one... Enjoy! (click here if you can't see the video below)

    Great Work…. What type of pencils and pens do you prefere when illustrating?

    Thanks

    Eszter & Colin:
    Thanks for the great comments guys! Glad you’re liking the first “episode”… stay tuned! :-)

    Zack:
    For drawing and sketching I normally use a regular 2B pencil, but in this video I used a really dark, soft-leaded Sanford Ebony pencil because it shows up really well on film. They’re actually pretty fun to draw with, the lead is so soft it almost has a brush or pastel feel so it kind of feels like you’re “painting” with it. You should give them a try… they’re only about $4 for a box of 12.

    I also suggest experimenting with whatever you can get your hands on… every artist works differently and you never know what will work best for you personally, you might be surprised. I know some illustrators that just use a cheap ballpoint pen to do all their work!

    Hope this helps!

  7. § fin on March 9th, 2006 at 2:12 pm

    It was really relaxing to watch you draw….

  8. § Napfisk on March 9th, 2006 at 4:03 pm

    Great. I used to draw quite a lot and took classes for some years as a teenager. I recognized the approach a bit. I love the style you have: slow, tender and yet resolute (yes, still talking about drawing).
    Mmm. I still doodle at times, but I might try and pick up pencil and paper sometime again after seeing this.

  9. § Jimmy Cintron on March 10th, 2006 at 5:11 pm

    Very enterntaining and enjoyable, liked the loose approach of the artist.

  11. § xoxoxo Bruce on March 16th, 2006 at 3:29 pm

    C’mon, fes up. That’s really an enchanted pencil, isn’t it?
    I’m sure I was watching magic flowing out of it.
    Kudos.
