Chickadee Charcoal Drawing
Brief:
From the Woodland Creatures series, settle into your perch as we draw an adorable chickadee with practical, no-fluff instructions. You will learn by doing, and along the way may glean some helpful techniques, like the importance of creating a realistic environment and layering values. There is no art theory, no in-depth history of the pencil, and no hoity-toity artisan paper. Grab a few basic supplies and, in under an hour, you will create a masterpiece.

Verbose:
Our videos are captioned, with no narration, and peaceful acoustic music throughout to provide the least-distracting environment possible while you follow the lesson. Feel free to mute the video and play your own music. Also, be sure to pause whenever necessary and remember to take frequent breaks for your well-being.
We have enabled—and encourage—downloads of our video so that you can watch in the highest (and clearest) quality possible. Our videos are produced in 4K HDR, which—while resulting in very large file sizes—allows for maximum clarity in depicting the relevant artistic techniques and details. We also include 1080p HDR versions with your purchase, should you be limited on bandwidth.
