If you are interested in more detailed write up on how the process is accomplished in the video then check out this other post:
Please explain how to use a proportional divider from a tiny picture to a large canvas. Larger than the proportional divider will spread.
Amazing…. Thank you soo much
These dividers are also helpful for double checking. Eventually you won’t have to use the dividers but it still helps to check afterwards to make sure everything is correct. Definitely a great tool for practice.
Everyone has a different process for drawing. If one doesn’t work for you don’t be discouraged, you just have to find the one that you enjoy and is most simple to you, either way it’s just practice practice practice 🙂
Just uploaded a new video portrait tutorial on my youtube channel 😐 please subscribe. .I don't wanna lose my self esteem 😣😓😭
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else needs to find out about steps to draw pencil portraits try Loctavan Amazing Drawing Strategy (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my cousin got cool results with it.
What ever it takes to get accuracy making it look real is what takes talent & skill.
Thank you so much! I just started teaching myself how to draw and I found this video incredibly helpful! Drawing portraits can be intimidating…It's nice to know where to start! You rock! Can't wait to watch Part Two!
THIS IS SO RELAXING TO LISTEN TO 🧘♂️
I can do the picture in ink in 3 minutes… He's putting all your chains….
I know this video is old but if you read this is it okay if you don't have any of those tools?
Thank you so much sir for such a clear explanation … Very useful
Just wonderful, been searching for "portrait drawing how to" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried – Qonubrey Wenria Domination – (just google it ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend got excellent results with it.
Drawing is my life
Bit painstaking in the process, but it gets the work done and nicely too.
Nice vids sir. I'll try to learn and absorb the essence, flow.
Good day!
I ❤️ your accent!!
Thank you. It was very informative.
Cool!!!
Super dope. I never though to do the method you shown at the end. Nice!
So many negative comments on using proportion divider, yet the results speak for themselves. Some the great masters like Durer, Vermeer, Ingres all used the proportion divider or grid system at one time or another to create works of exacting realism.
superb I like this way :-0
Can you or anyone please give some advice on sketching a face portrait on a larger scale like a wall. I am a beginner and can draw the layout of a person's face with the help of a reference pretty acurately.
i did not like this vidoe but every boddy is differn at drawing
thank you dude!
just put the paper on your computer as a lightbox will do, same shortcut but this would not train your skill
I used this in my 2nd portrait and really got better results than before
Sorry…I didn't finish that last comment. Was saying the more I think I've learned, the less I know…and with that said: new learning in all facets of life teaches one who want to learn, Something. Any method that helps meet YOUR goal, counts for success. Some people know just enough to always attempt to insult those who really want to learn! Thank you so much! Jimi
I'm appreciative! I've been trying to draw forever and I do wish I was great! The more I learn, I find, the less I know

I love his accent
This is just lame
Everyone has til Monday to sub to me and I'll sub back if not by Monday then nevermind
This can help at first especially to learn a little about proportion but if you want to get more skill you have to get rid of the tools
you have to had a basic before you creative. That method is exactly for beginers. stop mocking him
These are great just a lot to remember. I've seen a video to measure with pencil and then go to the paper. Idk guess if anything helps keep doing what your doing. 🙂 What is the best pencil number to draw portraits and to color with?
This is horrible…
Subscribe..👍🏻
thanks
make video on how to draw portrait from small reference photo to big portrait.
just buy a projector.. very much easier. kidding.
Good work sir, I admit you're way better than me.
I went to a Hans Heysen exhibition a couple of years ago, he was one of Australia's finest professional artists. To my surprise one of his incomplete works still had grid marks across the canvas. Famous early century artists often used their apprentices to contribute in painting a piece of work but as the 'master' was the teacher they'd sign their name only to the painting and claim it as theirs. Professional artists often use all kind of tricks – if it helps someone who would otherwise have great difficulty, don't knock it. As a teacher once said to me, at the end of the day it is all about enjoying what you do.
why do people have to talk about some one doing good
this really helped me with my detials
To all the negative commentators on here, the old adage holds true: "No point in being ignorant unless you demonstrate it." Before the Internet we didn't know how lucky we were to be oblivious to the fact we're surrounded by such antagonistic people. Instead of complaining and criticizing, why not send us a link directing us to your works of art? (No matter if you use a Proportional Divider.) Incidentally, if JD Hillberry uses one I'm sure some of you would benefit from using one too.
Great strategy! I plan to use it straight away.
Why are these guys complaining so much?? Alright we know you are very talented and were just looking for God damn it art tutorials just by mistake but please let others live their lives too! Just like this guy there are many others who use different materials to reach perfection but that doesn't give you any right to complain about. And yes we'll be waiting to see how many of you all create masterpieces in the coming years.
