    Hey Alphonso, I bought your book yesterday, but it will take some weeks to arrive at Brazil. Can't wait to read and get my pens going! I follow your videos since 2015 and I am very glad with all your teaching. Thanks man.

    Alphonso, I know you hear this all the time, but thank you. Thank you so much for all of your videos and information you provide to this TH-cam community. You explain things so well and thoroughly that I'm actually understanding how to create on my own, instead of relying on others' art.

    Been drawing a lot of trees lately, this will bump my efforts up a bit! Thanks for doing what you do, it helps a lot!

  • @barefacedquestions
    @barefacedquestions 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Thanks for the tips. I recently make a point of practicing drawing trees. I'm interested in how you would render a tree full of fruits (like a lemon tree). There are too many objects (fruit, trees, a lot of branches) that I don't know how to make them look 3D.

  • @KivStopMotions
    @KivStopMotions 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Yes!! Another video about trees! Thanks for this! I’m curious to how did you find your own personal or individual drawing style. I feel like my style is very all over the place and not well established.

  • @johngalvin6010
    @johngalvin6010 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have always been put off drawing trees with detail because they never seem to look good but listening to you & watching this video has made it look easier. If I can just apply what has been shown, mine will look what I want them to look like... trees.

  • @CoenBijpost
    @CoenBijpost 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This helped so much! An even harder challenge to me seems to be a large leafless tree. All the interweaving little branches and shadowplay, how would you approach something like that? Mine often just look like leafed trees, because the bunched up little branches start to look like clumps of leaves.

    @qelemrsas 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video as usual, and the quick tips text and numbered hints are a great addition to your videos. You may have already noticed but there are a couple of mistakes in the texts at 4:40 and 5:50. Don’t know if you can do something about it now, and it doesn’t take away anything from quality content you’ve given us anyway. I have your book and looking forward to getting the workbook, really grateful for these videos

  • @FormlessBody

    Brilliant advice in its simplicity . You are a very good teacher. Your gift is not art but teaching imo :) , don't get me wrong, you are a great artist and I love the book btw (looking forward to the next one), but there are plenty of great artists but fewer great teachers. Thank you for sharing your gift with us :)
