Jeff you are a talented artist and teacher. So glad I came across this video. Your advice to focus on quantity and structure/construction certainly seems to ring true.

Great, great job. I’m a fine art portrait drawer and you definitely hit the nail on the head all around

I love that endinh part...drswing is really subjective

this was great! i love that your advice on the best approach is simply to pick the one that works for you

Hi, GREAT video,and goooood narration. Thanks signed Jim

Great video. Thank you! I really enjoyed your slow deliberate pacing. Most drawing videos are put on hyper speed for some reason. 😂

I could listen to a audiobook voiced by you. You have such an informative way to your voice

Can you make more of these kind of videos

Ты нарисовал не ту девушку, что на фото

I'd like to try it. Subscribed

Awesome advice. New sub.

You developed your own beautiful style. ❤ fantastic 👏

If all else fails finding a live modle look in the mirror and draw yourself.....

Very inspiring channel. I find some of the art community to be kind of... meh, pretentious, inflated, sometimes gatekeeping. I used to draw a lot as a child, later on a bit less, then I stopped and did it only ocassionally. Now I'm coming back to it, I usually draw people. Sometimes I feel that it's useless, that there is no point in doing it but I guess it is what it is. If you're drawn to do it, you will do it no matter how you sometimes feel about it. Charcoal seems to work well with my personality. Thanks for the videos

Thats VERY GOOD advice to go MANY incomplete to the last detail portraits. I will make it my goal 2024. thanks

01:00 - best insight I've heard when it comes to practice and it's something I'll keep in mind every time I attempt to draw portraits. I've always wondered why I struggle to draw freehand. Now it makes sense to me. I've developed good techniques for rendering, but my ability to abstract reality to draw the underlying construction of my subject is severely lacking. I get bogged down with seeing details and my tendency is to render as I construct. Forcing myself to just practice the construction in my journal can hopefully detach me from the tendency to focus on details.

I love your drawing style and this advice. Would you share how do you find so many references to practice so much, and different viewpoints, expressions and lighting?

Your voice very soothing and the content reassuring I’m a rank amateur, but loving it

“We’re all doing this because we love to draw” Whoa there, let’s not make too many assumptions.

Thank you for this helpful video.

Good points for portrait drawings.

I gave up drawing after watching this video . This guy is incredible.

Ai is better who cares anymore?

That Rod Sterling voice combined with instructional wisdom makes for the perfect learning platform in which to grow in skill and knowledge. Well done. I'm inspired to persevere in this new, artistic journey that I am on. Thank you, Mr. Haines.

really nice!! im a teenager and i used to draw lots of realism for school credits but after a while i got bored and started drawing more semi-realism to anime art so i forgot most my skills

Wow amazing 😮

You're very honest and I appreciate you and your video.

Thank you!!

Fantastic process! Appreciate the way you feel out the form. Thanks for the inspiring demo. One thing I see on the photo is that the lips are slightly pursed, which affects the curve of the line under the top lip.

At 13:35 you lift out highlights with a kneaded eraser. My experience has been mild so far trying to do this with charcoal. It is way more greyish than this. Is it a matter of paper quality?

Excellent advice; to work more on the quick studies then trying to do complete portraits when starting off. Thanks!

"If it's really terrible, you'll never see this" AHAHAHAH

Great video!

Good Work. I drew along with you and made my first face that look amazing. This inspires me to make a better one. Greatly appreciated.

ASMR voice says wise things that help me relax about my weird methods. Thank you!

A very informative and educational video! Thank you Jeff!

Amazing! From childhood I always wanted to be an artist but my perfectionism has always got the best of me. Watching your videos has inspired me to continue to try. It’s like you’re speaking to my soul. Please keep making videos.

your talks are great! more videos pls

Merci beaucoup 😀

Thank you!

Have you ever tried powdered charcoal? It makes for interesting effects, but forget spraying it with fixative. It just blows away. This video was very helpful. Your work is beautiful and I am inspired to get my charcoals out again.

Great video, great advice! Your voice sounds like Bryan Cranston too

This helped alot !! totally agree sir! 👍your work is beautiful !

Thank you!
