I love it. My daughters have recently gotten me back into drawing as I put my pencils down a long time ago due to being diagnosed with PTSD as a result of going to war. PTSD attacks your mind in areas that one wouldn’t have not ever thought. Losing my love for drawing was one of the casualties of it. Great content and keep them coming.
Her voice is something i can hear all day and ber drawing is out of this world 🔥🌍😍😍😍❤️❤️, i Drew my first portrait after watching ur tutorial thank you so much for this amazing content 🔥✨⚡keep us updated
So glad I stumbled onto your site!! Love your work, you have inspired me to start sketching again Love your work, and your clear and concise guidance Thank you Greetings from South Africa
That looked so hard to use that paper and pencil! Once you know the right tools, it’s almost impossible to go back unless you’re forced to. Beautiful result. Most people don’t have any idea how long it takes to finish a realistic drawing. I agreed with you…focus on self improvement rather than comparing yourself to others. Thank you for sharing.
Omg… love your tutorials.. I am drawing!!!! Thankyou for breaking it down into bite size pieces and making this experience so accessible to anyone with just the basics.. ❤️
Beautiful. You aren’t enamored of drawing animals, but you entirely captured the essence of that cat. And your fur is persuasive. Lovely. You’ve certainly come a long way.
You are a true inspiration for me! I've picked up drawing again and I'm re-learning every technique. It's been very fun yet tiring. Sometimes I want to quit a drawing and not finish it. But, watching your videos and learning from you, has helped me find motivation to keep going, so thank you so much! I wish someday I can be as good as you! I This video was so interesting, and I would love to see another one ❤️
Thanks for sharing your amazing tutorials. I love your so sweet and warm voice. Please share more of your videos I have learned so much from your teaching
That is a massive improvement😀👍👍👍 do not compare your work to others, no matter how good you get, you will always find another one better, that is just how it is, everybody has a ceiling, as long as you think you have improved that is all that matters, doing your own work over is the best way.
You are a really good artist, but you are great at teaching. I never thought I could even draw stick people, but you have shown me that I can do it! Also the tools you use make a difference as well!
Thank you for sharing! This is so inspiring and reassuring👏🏽 glad to know artist go through similar phases. It was also nice to see you😉. When will you be doing a skillshare on portraits? I've learned so much from your videos , a course would be awesome.
Sooperb video for all who think they cant draw , your video proves that just dont give up keep doing what you are doing now one day it will give results 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍
Been drawing for almost six months, i can definitely compare myself from ''not being able'' to ''be able'' but lately i'm feeling jaded and stuck,but i cant just quit it i still want to strive hard. Frustration can hit hard somtimes sigh*
Congratulations, I'm a beginner and I live in Brazil, you are a very good teacher and location, although I understand little English, you have vidios about s
you've jumped leaps and bounds. What I would like to see is one more drawing of this exact same portrait but using all the tools and methods you've learned over the past 12 years.
You are truly something special, Darlene. What an amazing talent. I appreciate all the gems you choose to share with the world. I've stepped my shading skills up so much because of you and Stan Prokopinko. Who's been your biggest inspiration if you don't mind me asking?
I don't have a HB pencil please can you make a video on how to make smooth drawings with only HB pencil. However, your earlier drawing and also the new drawing is fabulous.
Hi Mahathi. I just made a playlist for you with all my tutorials that were drawn using an HB pencil 😊. It's not a big list, but I will add more as they come: th-cam.com/video/jNvoRni9gqc/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=RapidFireArt Are you looking for a tutorial specifically on shading with an HB pencil?
I used to draw realistic people, I decided to stop doing that because it was very hard so I moved on to draw bodies of superheroes. This made me going to draw again. Can you please teach me how step by step?
Becareful to not shame your beginner self. This isnt BAD ART. This is a part of the journey onwards. Many people cant draw as good as your "bad art" currently but may progress well beyond if they dont consider it such.

and Ma'am Thank you
you've jumped leaps and bounds. What I would like to see is one more drawing of this exact same portrait but using all the tools and methods you've learned over the past 12 years.
Please make more shapes videos🙏🙏
I think some of the issues you get from the paper being too thin could be resolved by stacking the paper a few sheets
when you redraw the actor i immediately knows the actor
You are truly something special, Darlene. What an amazing talent. I appreciate all the gems you choose to share with the world. I've stepped my shading skills up so much because of you and Stan Prokopinko.
Who's been your biggest inspiration if you don't mind me asking?
Please make another video like this one.

@@RapidFireArt Thank you so much
Great improvement!
A little over an hour for each year! lol
I want more portaits from you
I like your drowing
Would you ever consider coming out with a ‘How to Draw’ book? I would definitely buy it.
I used to draw realistic people, I decided to stop doing that because it was very hard so I moved on to draw bodies of superheroes. This made me going to draw again. Can you please teach me how step by step?
Nice 👍
Big fan ♥️
Can you make a video tutorial on how to shade the face because I'm still confused 😥
I have trouble drawing eyes (same length, width) and nose from front view. Any suggestions to improve? Thanks
This is the first time I saw you. You look so cute just like your voice.
Fun challenge :)
cool I'm early to the video:)
welldone
Love your work and teaching style. I am now one of your disciples. You look more like 19 than 31 in your video.
You current drawing looks alive, literally.

Do you have or can record vidio about depth and volume??😊
Another one please
Your 19 years old drawing is still good.
Omg her past drawings are better than my present 😂😂😂😂
