Thank you so much. I've just picked you pencil drawing, again after 30 odd years away, and I'm struggling on white fur, your tutorial was fantastic in explaining why.
I definitely agree with taking breaks during the drawing. I put the work back in the drawer and open it up as I walk past. It’s surprising what hits you straight away, both good and not so good. I’ve been using pencils to lay the foundation of white fur but I do tend to make this overly dark? The graphite powder on a sponge or bud seems to do a much better job. Your tutorials do motivate me to keep trying the techniques you demonstrate, even if I can’t replicate the quality. Thanks for the encouragement.
I was looking for a tutorial on how to draw realistic white hair on humans but this pops up 😭 but you know what? I'm gonna try this technique anyway cuz this looks beautifully drawn 😍
Thanks Zara, this is a great tutorial, I’m going to do this one on my Patreon. The one over there is so detailed. Can’t wait to attempt this. Thanks again.😊
A friend of mine wants me to draw her dog. Its the same exact breed as this one. I appreciate your tutorial and all the great insight you gave! Im excited to go and try the techniques you demonstrated here. Your drawing came out looking amazing!! It was fun to see you do the highlights, those are my favorite parts. Will be looking back to this as a reference for sure.
It's vellum so smoother. I prefer that to more textured papers like cold pressed because its harder to get finer details. So I'd always recommend a smoother, hot pressed paper for graphite.
What's the tool you're using to bring out the white fur on top of the shadows? It looks like a pencil of sorts, is it an eraser or more of a white pencil crayon? thanks.
I'm drawing a white bulldog that gas almost like a mesh texture around the eyes where it's black underneath and white fur on top of it. I've tried everything and I can't get even close to replicating it. I even tried an embossing tool and that was horrible. Bulldogs often have black areas around the eyes.
@jcepri I've got a few tutorials on Patreon that would show the steps on how to approach that. How the graphite is applied initially makes a big different to how well the erasers work. What's your process?
@@zaratomsart I'm a member of your Patreon. :-) I'm using the makeup applicator like you do. The background under the white fur is black and the white fur crosses in two directions on top of it.
@@jcepri Ah in that case I would recommend to watch the Dalmatian ear study tutorial because that specifically focuses on how to use the eraser to create light highlights over dark graphite =)
Amazing and beautiful drawing. Thank you for sharing.
@lynx.2222 thank you so much 💓

Thank you so much, so pleased to hear that ❤️. I love graphite powder. I use it on every one of my graphite drawings 🥰

Hi! What paper did you use and can you post the reference photo, i can't find it on pixabay. Thank your!
Hey Zara forgot to ask. Is your paper hot press or cold press.
It's vellum so smoother. I prefer that to more textured papers like cold pressed because its harder to get finer details. So I'd always recommend a smoother, hot pressed paper for graphite.
Hi that’s beautiful, is that graphite powder you use ?
Yeah I use graphite powder on all of my graphite drawings =)
What's the tool you're using to bring out the white fur on top of the shadows? It looks like a pencil of sorts, is it an eraser or more of a white pencil crayon? thanks.
It's a tombow mono eraser
Love this drawing. Question, what are the erasers you are using? You said they are various sizes. Thank you.
I've mainly used the Tombow mono eraser for this one =)
Where the frame is also visible please
