What a professional, clear and concise presentation. I used to teach drawing before the internet and TH-cam, and while I am retired I am so pleased to share videos like yours because the information is so useful and well presented. Thank you! I subscribed and am looking forward to more!
3:26 all that graphite that went into the bin could be put to great drawing use. I recently discovered a channel that uses graphite shavings and an eraser to draw, amazingly well. The channel is called GP Like (not affiliated in any way, but I’m all about using up supplies that wd otherwise be thrown out in creative ways)
I know! I remember learning this after years of already going to different art schools, and seeing the difference it made and thinking, "why isn't this common knowledge in art programs. hope it helps.
4:48 the closer we hold the pencil to the point, the more detailed and “tight”. Better to use shoulder arm at first, then arm and elbow, then wrist…THEN closer to the point (wrist and fingers)for final details. Seems to be one of the most common reasons beginners get frustrated: they’re doing “detail” work from the very beginning. That’s like trying to hang up pictures and decorating a room before the drywall is up. Completely futile and a waste of time and energy.

doyou used the 'draftsman' (person?) pencils that use refill 'leads'; i used one called Mars technico from years ago engineering school?
Never used mechanical pencils, never liked the feel of them.
