0:43: *“As the water gets wet”*
-Jono Dry, 2019
Such wise words
I think he meant the paper😗
@@mr.nobody5251 ... No sh** Sherlock 😐
Jono *dry*
Hmm looks the same as mine
This is the artist version of "Why I season my cutting board, not my steak"
Eeey
Rare to find a fellow Adam Ragusea viewer here
I was gonna make that joke too but he has a point and the video was surprisingly good
Exactly what I thought too
A person of culture I see
I flatten my paper with white wine.
Hes making a video about wetting paper, but his last name is Dry
Bruh moment

The whole reason I tapped on this video was so I could make that comment.
“And as the water gets wet” 0:43
Hmmmm yes indeed
Hmmm This floor here is made out of floor
Yes.... mmmmm the texture gives the texture some nice texture

In order to dry something, it needs to be wet...

The answer to the biggest 'why?' in your channel, ever.
Hahaha I know!
As an artist who often struggles getting into the right mentality when creating pieces, I would love to hear your thought process!! Thank you for doing what you do, your art work is so inspiring!
#@Heidi Lin....I can totally relate to that. It drives me crazy 🤪, when I tell people I'm not in the mood or my mind is too busy and their response is that I'm making excuses or lazy....😑
As an artist I learned to start working and not worry about my mind or anything. Just start working, then you will find your way and inspiration. It’s when time disappear. Then you get your state of creation.
I did worked every day for 30 years, sometimes I was cleaning brushes, sometimes painting for hours, you need the discipline.
Picasso said I keep working every day and when the inspiration comes it can catch me working! Best
I know a South African when I hear one
Lol, me too. Very talented people too
i saw the Kayway jacket in the other video :|
He's from Cape Town, South Africa, if you're wondering.
I was looking for this comment cause I knew the accent sounded very familiar but kinda posh
Rugby World Cup Champions 2019. Imagine if Jono did a portrait of Captain Siya Kolisi ... please, please, please consider that idea ...The very first Black South African Captain of a World Champion Rugby Team.
When Jono Dry uploads a video, I'm like: "Who says TH-cam doesn't have good quality content?"
Exactly! He's very true & realistic. U're just simply amazing Jono.
Nobody says that.
who says that
Whoever said that doesnt know great creators!
Holy- you're right, I just noticed that it's high quality
I'd like to see you're sketching process, and maybe some art from when you first began drawing
what are you talking about... he started last week... this IS his first drawing!!!

pesto12601 the fuck you talking about?

I haven't leaned into my artwork since my wife fell ill in 2017. With her passing in late 2019, I've still not felt inspired to really embrace it again until I began watching your videos very recently. Now I am very eager to truly apply myself to it once more.
Thank you!
I hope you've found some inspiration again! And wish you all the best coming out of such a rough situation
I’m sorry for your loss. I keep a picture of my daughter-gone-to-Heaven in my studio for remembering better days and inspiration that I’ll see her one day. She was always encouraging me to pursue my art.
@@msdeeandfamily that's so beautiful.
Watching you work makes me miss being in art school, when nothing existed but your work and you didn’t have to put pressure on it to pay bills. Thank you for creating so much beauty.
i like that he describes the why to his process immediately
Aha, now I know...been starting to scale up from A3 to A2/A1 and noticing the impact it has on a finished drawing, but wondered how to scale up from there...so a roll of quality paper is on the wish list. Thank you for taking the time to explain! 🎧✏️
Your art is so inspirational! I found your channel about a year ago and your work inspired me to start drawing again! Your tips and just basically watching you do your thing has helped improve my own work... thank you and please keep the vids coming 🙏🏻😊
Jono does a great job explaining the process required to produce his art. Learning to draw is one thing, learning the process of making art is another. Thank you for sharing this info!!!
Incredible to see local talent shine so brightly! Great video man, keep it up.
These explaining videos really help me and, I'm sure, other people as well to improve their art. Love your technique and drawing, really appreciate the time you put in your art and these videos. 👍
Total respect! I love creating art myself, in many forms, but have to give credit where it's truly due... your talent is immense (and I don't blow sunshine unless there's a damned good reason!) I bow to your creativity! Thanks for sharing 😉👍
The mental aspect is absolutely something I'd like to see more of. It's useful and interesting to see how other artists approach thier art and tackle concerns.
How do you draw the textures of different things so right, like the skin, hair, water, bone, clothes........ really man they are amazing.!!!!!
And all this only with different shades of graphite.????!!!!!
How man???
Please do tell about how you make the textures...
Hours of work LOL. And I mean a lot of hours.
Quality paper
@@brockjungjohan That too you can't get that deep black with graphite on normal paper just like he showed in the video.
@@theone614 I was just messing around cause that's what he talked about the whole video lol
Practice, Patience and alot of Determination
Yes! Would love to hear more about motivation and process before you work on paper. I think process and motivation is so helpful for other artist to find their own justifications for their work. Also, your outlook on materials is really interesting and I it think would be a great way to expand your channels content.
This is the first video from you that I've ever seen; about one minute in I had to check your other videos to see what your art was like, went to your Instagram page instead, and all I can say is WOW! Your art is insanely good! The detail in the one of the eye with the little man inside the pupil is amazing! Instantly subscribed.
Brilliant clip, Jono! You sum up everything that we struggle with from art school onwards. Fear of making mistakes is the crippling factor, not the experience of the mistakes which can teach us so much.
I like hearing you talk! This just showed up in my feed. I checked out some of your other videos and I love the editing. Your art is amazing and honestly I really appreciate the advice your giving.
astrocat I’m so glad you found it! 🙏
Ty! It would be helpful to understand mindset and preparation you do before starting the final details
Just found your channel today..I’m so glad TH-cam recommended one of your videos and I was so amazed all through out the entire video watching your drawing process!
You're such an eloquent person! Such finesse! And what you described about really high quality paper pushing you to become better because you don't want to waste your paper is sooo true...!
Loved this video and found it very informative. I’m excited to try this technique of stretching paper. I’m definitely interested in any videos you might create regarding your headspace and how you approach your drawings. Thank you for the information and inspiration Jono!
I love the headspace videos explaining approach, techniques, history of styles etc
Where do I find these headspace videos?? thanks
Your advice about using the high quality paper all the time is great! That is a very encouraging way to look at it. Thank you for sharing your processes!
This is great, the mental state of an artist is as important as the skill level. Without it, nothing can be created. Very informative, would love to see more of these. Thanks!
Always I'm waiting for your videos.
You are the best
@@_blank-_ are you OK ? cause people don't wet for videos LOL😂
Absolutely interested in the mind space of an amazing artist. Arches is my favorite as well. Beautiful artwork.
As a graphite artist I've always experimented with paper and research and this is by far the most useful information I've come across for what paper to use . Thanks for sharing !
I discovered you today and am in awe. I'm so grateful for you. Your pure being shines as an artist but also as a really good human. I would love to learn more about the head space before going into a drawing. Please share some ideas of your mental process🙏
I really needed and appreciate this video! I made a 3’ x 5’ charcoal piece that got ruined because the paper bubbled up when adhered to the wood backing by the framer. That was a very costly mistake. Thank you for sharing the wisdom you acquire from working.
More like a poem on why to use high-quality paper
Your attention to detail is amazing. I also enjoy the teaching aspect and your work around
mind set.
Yes we would love more of these please, you are very generous to share your hard earned knowledge
I have never heard of you before now and I am so glad TH-cam recommended your channel.
Absoulety Amazing Artwork.
Thank you for this 😊, you have improved my day tenfold ✌
So glad to hear it! Thanks :)
I really admire about your art and I really appreciate your work and really admire that when I would be an artist like you
So far I love all the videos I've seen. coming from whatever angle you choose. As a wanna be artist / painter I find all aspects fascinating and helpful, and really enjoy hearing about an artist's personal approach and experience , except if they are being dogmatic or pretentious, which you absolutely are not. So I'll keep watching whatever you decide to share, and much appreciate your generosity in sharing. Blessings From Down Under Oz.
Starting to pick up pencil drawing and REALLY enjoy your videos. Very well done and full of information as well as an infectious enthusiasm. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your advice! Very interested in your work, the smoothness of the larger areas of shading seems to be the paper preparation, stretching and weight. I've not been brave enough to try heavy paper but I feel encouraged by your thoughts. Thanks Jono.
Im so glad I could encourage you to try heavier paper. Im sure you will see good results
Thank you so much for explaination. It would help us a lot. I wish i could be your student. Making drawing with pencil is my passion. I have never seen someone like you. You are the best and greatest Artist i have ever known and seen.😘😍😘😍😘😍👍🏻😍👍🏻
Thank you Jono, I struggled with which paper. Now I know which is best. Love, light and blessings
Im a new subscriber but seeing your art and hearing "we all make mistakes, and its ok" just shot me with 20 cc's of confidence 🤘
I wish my son could meet you. He's 12 and needs someone like you to inspire him to take his drawings to the next level.
I was waiting for this!
Just started following you and i love every one so far. THANK YOU!
I really appreciate your suggestion on overcoming the fear to use expensive paper. 🙏
There is a lovely truth in your words for us artists.
Thank you.
Yeaah......we enjoy tutorial video,infact these help us a lot.Make more video like it sharing your experiences.We always love your work and style of drawing.
Be happy,stay blessed Jono.
Thanks a lot for this video! It encourages me to not give up.
I also do pencil art nd I was searching on details of the paper used in pencil drawings. They form the base of drawings. You are a gem of an art. Art is pure form of bliss!! God bless!
Thank you! Every tip you give is so helpful 💕
Thank you , that definitely was informative as I had serious issues while working with cold pressed papers a while ago. I will certainly try hot pressed 300gsm
Really interesting as always, it would be great to know how you come up with your ideas as they are so unique.
thankyou jono dry for the wise words on paper being key,and yes it is expensive,but because of that it makes me try to do better!
great video Jono, really enjoyed learning about the different paper types.
Best pencil artist to date
Brent Benjamin big facts
Probably your biggest fan😘I will one day draw like you
Lovely advice, I just found your channel and am reviewing all the videos. I am especially interested in the mental side, your video on focus was truly helpful.
it`s hypnotizing: your drawings, the techniques, your speech and you by yourself...
Hey....you spoke my heart regarding using high quality paper ...due to this very reason i mostly use bad paper...and fear making mistakes on high quality paper
I am an engineer-turned- painter from India, n it's been the colors that've caught my attention always, never the pencil.
But seeing you work on your projects make me want to work with pencils. Thanks for such an inspiration. :)
More videos on your head space, please. And the tools you employ. And the art you create. And all the "whys". Your works, and how you bring them into being is endlessly fascinating. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful video, I have just found your channel today and I am so glad I have. Your work is simply breathtaking. The tips you highlighted in this video as well are excellent thank you.
Thanks for sharing your process with us!
No idea why anyone would dislike this video. This video is beautiful, helpful, inspiring, and educational. There is absolutely nothing dislikeable here. 🤨 just confused.
There is no trace of the artist in this drawing. It is a mechanical representation of the eye. Jono is competing with a camera. Of course this is an insanely high degree of craft here, but no self expression, style, interpretation or art. It represents obsessive/compulsive behavior. This reminds me of the days when photography was not as sophisticated and artists were employed as medical draftsmen to aid surgeons and medical students. Not the kind of art I would want hanging in my house.
Like I have been waiting for this explanation for forever
I hope its helpful :D
@@JonoDry Its very helpful . Thanks a lot :D
Omg, a roll of Arches Hot Press paper! The fact that it comes this way just made my life! Thank you, Jono!!!
You offer some great art advice things that I never though of. Thanks for saying that artist should only buy what they can afford. Great video! Keep up the awesome work!
You’re such a gift to humanity. Thanks for sharing. What about the subject matter of your images? Symbolism? Messages? Deeper themes?
Art so dope, paper gets wet before he even draws
Your videos are super! Really detailed advice and a very friendly, encouraging manner🙂
You and your works are so inspiring! I am completly in love with your drawing of the azurues (dart frog) with wings on the fingertip!
Any videos about anything. Just make them!
We will watch very happily.
Id like a video on how you break your drawing into 'sections' to draw. How long different chunks take. Etc
Your voice is literally so gorgeous
That was very insightful it compounded a conversation I'd had only today about becoming to precious. Thanks for sharing I really enjoyed it.
Brilliant honest, be fearless and don’t listen to anyone. If you keep moving forward you will get better. And maybe even get to like yourself. This is what I got from following these guidelines. Very good examples here. Thank you.
Love this video! I was always curious about why you wet the paper. It makes sense and you can see in the timelapse how it works. Can you do a video for emerging artists? Such as providing career tips, improving, and business aspects of the art field.
I think thats a massive subject and I do have some opinions on it but there is no one way to go about it. Ill try make a video expressing what I think works. Will take a bit of time to plan and shoot but thats a great question. Thanks!
I've always set my good quality paper. (Lol in my case it's parchment for charcoal) Thank you for the tip of using the paper for even the smallest things!
Jo I really appreciate the time and advice given some real wisdom here
Your videos are very informative and helps alot of self taught artists like me. Get to learn alot from u like how to approach an artwork ,how to discipline oneself when we decide to pursue it as career and much more . Tysm❤️❤️❤️
Bro please make tutorial videos because it will help us to learn something new about drawing
Plz reply for it##
Go watch Proko if you need tutorials duhduh 👌
Thanks for your reply my friend
U r the best....
Love from India ❤
It's such beautiful work. You are so professional and hardworking. I admire your technique and appreciate your teachings. Thank you for sharing.
Great explanation and tips, thankyou. I think you are the best artist on here. Defo, I keep reference photos all the way through my art. I learn from mistakes .
Where did you study? When did you start? Thanks for taking the time to explain to us your work!!
Awesome video bru, very educational. I would love to know how you stay focused and draw for many hours without losing detail in your drawings.
This is Such a huge theme in my life. I would love to give explain this. Thanks for the question.
@@JonoDry Thanks, thats a huge challenge for me
@@JonoDry yes please, think there are many people out there who struggle to stay focused while drawing.
Jono Dry yes please make a video about it, I think that all artists struggle with that...
@@JonoDry yes please, I was wondering about your focus as well
Yes please! Your thoughts and Insights are very helpful. I would love to advance my skills to professional pieces of art.
Thank u so much for all these advices
You're such an inspirational person
I enjoyed very much the video. How do you draw such a big drawings with that accuracy? We your fans want to Know. Congrats your work is amazing
Hi Jono! Thanks for this video. How long (how many hours) does it take in between you wetting your paper and drawing on the paper? Do you begin drawing on it as soon as it's completely dry or you try to elapse a particular time before actually drawing on it?
Hi Jono!! I am a huge fan! Thank you so much for the explanation!! 💐💐💐
great video points especially the one about having to push through some difficult aspects of improving drawing skill as opposed to having fun
I'd like to know if you have a reference when you're drawing, a picture, a model or anything.
Especially for all your amazing drawings with horns.
Or if you work without it, if you have the clear idea of what to do in your mind.
Thank you, i love your videos!
I think it's little bit impossible to make such sketch without reference photo....
I would like to get to know you as a person better. Tell us why you draw, or what in your art makes you happy, or sad or anything you want to. You don't have to get personal, but some basic things about you will be nice. Love your art and it's amazing that a fellow South African is so amazing at his talent.
Im not sure I could answer that with out getting personal. I think Ill get into that stuff one day when I feel a bit more comfortable on the platform. I dont know, There is also something good about leaving things out, like my motivation behind the work, might take away from how others see it.
@@JonoDry Definitely! I do mostly woodcarving with a mixed media, sometimes in oils or acrilic. I never interpret. Like a verse from John Denver, "music paints pictures and often tell's stories, and in so many ways the music is you"
He is so kind and the way he talks is very simple ♥️
I’m So interested in your art process !!
Thank You very much for sharing!!
