My first proper tutorial using Fabriano Artistico hot press paper - i know a lot of you use it so felt it only fair that I start to create tutorials on a smoother paper. Working on the nose area at the moment. This will be going up on the 2nd Augu...

Something that many of you may end up wanting to use is a projector. I know I'm really lucky that I have the Artograph Inspire 1000, it's brilliant, but sadly no longer available.
I have tried so many ways of setting up my projector, and onl...

Oh my word this has been fun!!
She may look complicated and full of detail, but I've used techniques like cross hatches and noughts and crosses to create the complicated skin.
She's been quite speedy for a big piece, only a...

The easiest way to access all of my tutorials is via my website. I have a dedicated page with all the links, you just find the piece you want to draw, click on it, and then on which part you want to watch, and it will take you directly to patreon ...

If you’re sick of layering and using light pressure, finding a combination of pencils to create the right colour then this tutorial is definitely for you! I’m using techniques to simplify a complicated subject. Concentrating on the darks and t...

Not sure if you have heard of this, but the 25th July is Life in a Day.
Film your day and you may become part of a historic global documentary produced by Ridley Scott.
We have a Q&A session booked in for Saturday afternoon, which ...

I was thinking - as usual lol! And I thought it would be great to create another piece similar to the one in the image.
But I'd like to do a bit of a vlog, showing how I find the references, what I'm looking for and then how I combine ...

I thought I'd record my thought process in working out what paper I'm going to be using for the baby elephant, I think it's really important to think about what paper you'll use, if like me you use a few different ones.
For this piece I have...

I've just finished my latest commission piece so am prepping for August's tutorials.
$10 TIER: The baby elephant was the clear winner for the main tutorial, so we will be doing him/her :) I honestly don't know what paper I'll use I need to r...

Hopefully it will be resolved asap

This is the third video in this month's beginner series.
Wrinkles on drafting film. I decided to go with a different image due to the colouring of the first one.
Again short, just looking at the techniques for drafting film.
2020-07-12 21:39:44 +0000 UTC View PostI think I've confused things lol! With Vimeo, you watch via Patreon. I think that's the privacy thing - there's no way to watch anywhere else or download etc.
Edited to say I don’t ever want people to have a poor viewing experience, so I m...

Sometimes a commission doesn't go as planned, and you have to have an awkward conversation with your client if they want to change things or even if they don't like the finished piece.
Whilst videoing Parker, I took 20 minutes out to talk ab...

I thought I'd do a quick video just explaining a bit about tones and colours in white fur.
Please excuse my lock down nails - we're doing the garden up at the moment and it's taking a toll on my nails!
This doesn't go into all the colo...
