It seems like just yesterday that the devilish and charming Captain Jack Sparrow and his merry band of misfits were wreaking havoc upon the open seas in "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End." Lucky for fans of the hugely successful franchise, Johnny Depp is back in Sparrow's pirate garb this weekend in "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides."

When MTV News caught up with Depp recently, we got to talking about one element missing from Captain Jack's unique existence: long-term relationships with any of the bevy of beautiful women that seem to constantly surround him, like "Stranger Tides" leading lady Penélope Cruz.

"I think if we did a scenario where it was Captain Jack really falling in love, it would most likely be a silent film. I think he would go completely catatonic and be unable to speak," Depp said. "He would probably sit there and quiver for an hour and a half."

Depp said a real relationship would "mess up the myth" of Jack Sparrow. "It would mess up the legend," he said. "Which I think is always working for it, to leave the legend behind."

Sparrow's apparent commitment phobia and other unexplained issues aside, Depp said having Cruz as his onscreen love interest/ sparring partner was a gift.

"[She's] one of the greatest gifts you could get," he said of Cruz. "She's so fiery and has such spirit and such talent. Also, besides that, she's a great friend," he added. "She's so funny and so capable of anything. You toss her a curve ball, or she tosses you one, she's ready for anything, and that's a really great and inspiring experience."

http://merrillk.com/index.php?part=fineart&articles_id=5851&collection=114 Today YOU are going to draw the female nose. Never drawn before? Thats OK. I will try to make it easy for you! ....Here we go. ......Drawing is much easier when we break things down in to shapes. So lets do that with the female nose. Notice that there are two trapezoids and an oval. These are our primary shapes with the nose..... Draw them on your paper now; and don't forget to put in the nostrils.......... Next, I will show you how to shade the nose. Don't worry, its going to be easy! You have two options to learn shading. Option one- click the link in the video description to go to a webpage that I made for this video..... This webpage has eight easy steps and text to help you. Option two is to watch the second part of this video, where I will guide you through the shading process. I think that you should take advantage of both options to learn how to shade the nose!
In comparison to the Male nose (left) the female nose is:
1.) less pronounced or smaller than the male nose
2.) has a more narrow bridge
3.) has smaller nostrils
4.) slightly rounder at the bottom (this is not the case for EVERY person though)
5.) had less shadow area around the "eye socket" or orbit, on both sides of the bridge at the top of the nose.
STEP 1- In step one of drawing the female nose, focus your attention on the shapes. There are three main shapes. 1.) An oval at the bottom, 2.) A tall trapezoid for the bridge of the nose. 3.) An upside down trapezoid at the top of the nose. 4.) In addition to the major shapes, don't forget to add the shapes for the nostrils.
STEP 2- For step two, simply darken the nostrils. The nostrils will be the darkest tone on any persons nose.
STEP 3- For this step, create a shadow at the bottom of the nose.
STEP 4- Erase the lines on the sides of the bridge of the nose. (This is where most people go wrong in drawing the nose!) The only part of the nose that can be expressed in linear form is the bottom of the nose (Below and to the sides of the nostrils...especially the sides).
STEP 5- Replace the solid lines with soft "cross hatching" (a fancy term for shading- "hatches" are multiple lines, created by the tip of the pencil used to create darker tones....watch the video at the top if you do not understand).
STEP 6- Smudge the cross hatching with a tortillion (blending stump or stub).....Not only on the bridge of the nose, but also where you feel in necessary. I usually do a few layers of hatching, followed by smudging.
STEP 7- I am putting on the finishing touches. I used my eraser to make highlights on the nose. IMPORTANT: The female nose (right) is smoothed out/ polished / finished, more than the male nose........ How does an artist smooth out/polish/finish the nose?....By 1.) hatching with the pencil 2.) smudging the hatches with the tortillion and 3.) using the eraser to create highlights. (This is demonstrated in the video at the top of the page).
STEP 8- In the final step I darkened the nostrils (For the second time).

Why the long face? This video is a photo morph (photocollage) of the greatest mugshots of all time. I merged Nick Nolte, James Brown, Paul Reubens (Pee Wee Herman) and Miss Arizona contestant Kumari Fulbright.

Mugshots (James Brown, Paul Reubens, Nick Nolte, Kumari Fulbright were taken by government workers (public) and are in the public domain. I also used this photo- http://www.flickr.com/photos/s....cragz/2716825715/siz and this one- http://www.flickr.com/photos/s....tuart_ferrier/261255

This video will give you step by step instruction on how to draw a Ferrari 599 GTB. And after I give you step by step instruction, I will then teach you how to add color to your drawing with colored pencils and paint. Millions of people have watched my tutorials and thousands have successfully completed them. And you are the next person to surprise yourself with your artistic abilities. All that you will need at this moment is a piece of drawing paper and a pencil.

Before we begin, please support my channel by subscribing, favoriting this video and hitting the thumbs up button if you want more tutorials like this one. The best place to leave requests for future videos is in the comments section below or on my facebook like page. Just hit the link in the video description.

Step 1: Draw the shape that looks like a rounded trapezoid. Notice, but don't over stress the angle at which is points downwards and its proximity to the left side of the page.
Step 2: Yep. More polygons. Add the trapezoid shape and the pointy shape above it.
Step 3: I am at a loss for words in terms of naming all of the new shapes, but names arent important, placement is. For instance, notice where the U shape connects with the trapezoid shape from step 1. Also notice that the left side of the door shape starts its arc just before the half way point of the trapezoid shape from step 1.
Step 4: Add the ovals for the tire. Yes I said ovals. Actually, take a close look at the new shape. It is egg like.
Step 5: Add the rear of the car.
Step 6: Add the rear tire.
Step 7: I warn you that this is the trickiest step. Use your observation skills and closely observe the lines. They are both slightly arced. Now look at the two headlights. Notice that the one that is higher is also smaller than the one closer to the bottom of the page. This is also due to perspective.
Step 8: Add the details to the hood. This step is tricky, so use your observation skills to notice that the shapes on the hood get slightly smaller as they go further back.
Step 9: The car is showing its teeth. Youve gotten this far, so carefully observe the placement and add it to your paper.
Step 10: Add the side windows and the mirrors.
Step 11: is optional. Add the rims and the seats.

This is the second of two videos that I (Merrill Kazanjian) made to help the beginner understand the process of oil painting. http://merrillk.com
Welcome to part 4 of my painting video. We are now going to talk about finishing a painting with a strategy called glazing. When an artist glazes he or she adds transparent color as the final layers of a painting. That means that an artist usually uses paints that are transparent to translucent. Most paint companies, put a marker on the outside of their tubes to let a customer know about the properties of the paint. An empty box means that the color is transparent, a half filled box means that the paint is translucent. For any beginner who wishes to try glazing, buy paints that are transparent to translucent.

I have a list of transparent to translucent paints on my website Merrillk.com. The "glazing colors" which I used to finish this painting are in a list at the end of the video description. When I set up my palette, I combine these special paints with a painting medium called Liquin....... But what does the painting medium do? And how does it help you glaze? Let me explain with an analogy; think of frozen orange juice and frozen grape juice! When these two juices are frozen in their containers, they are opaque, meaning that you cannot see through them. But, when you add the correct amount of water, the frozen orange juice becomes translucent and the frozen grape juice becomes transparent. In other words, the concentrated forms of these juices become diluted and the mixture spreads out.........Now think of the popular drinks, Gatorade, Vitamin Water, or Life Water....They are even more diluted from their concentrated form!

Glazing works the same way, but with paint medium, rather than water. The tube of paint is the equivalent of the frozen concentrated juice and the painting medium is the equivalent of the water. When a painter employs the strategy of glazing, he or she adds a good amount of painting medium to transparent and translucent paints.
My personal preference is to mix equal amounts of oil paint and Liquin Painting Medium on the palette with a palette knife.....and I usually leave a pool of Liquin on the side, so that I can dilute the mixture even more, if I need to.

Artists have put hundreds of layers of glazes on a painting, but you have to wait for the previous layer to dry. Now I will demonstrate the process.

Be sure use soft tipped brushes when you glaze oil paint. A fan brush is also a great tool to use. Fan brushes are used to spread wet paint on a paintings surface. They do not carry a lot of paint which is an advantage if you want to blend paint evenly (a brush that carries a lot of paint such as a large round brush has to be used VERY DELICATELY).

When I glaze, I usually apply the paint with round brushes. BUT, I manipulate the paint that I applied with fan brushes.

You can Glaze an Oil Painting Countless Times

The colors that I used to glaze were, Ultramarine Blue, Ultramatine Purple, Italian Brown Pink Lake and Davy's Grey from Old Holland Classic Oil Colors, Asphaltum Black from Mussini Oil Colors Chromatic Black from Gamblin Oil Colors and Zinc White from Vasari Oil Colors.

This video will teach you how to draw a cat with colored pencil. You will learn how to blend colors and how to use color pencils. I have been reading your comments. You want to see the whole process and many of you have asked for color pencil tutorial. This is a definite deviation from the norm, so please tell me what you think.

YouTube Artists, I recommend You ALL do this- http://youtube.com/yt/get-promoted/index.html

Really random??? YES! I was curious if I could turn chicklets gum from a stop motion object into a sculptural object. My last video was a tutorial on traditional painting....This one was as far from traditional painting as you could get. But I learned a lot doing it. For instance, you can layer gum like you layer paint and interestingly enough, gum gives an artist a medium that 1.) dries and solidifies 2.) can be used translucently or applied opaque (different thicknesses) 3.) can be layered 4.) GIVES ME A WICKED SUGAR RUSH!

Believe it or not, I want to experiment more with this medium. If you think about it, chewing gum's artistic possibilities lie somewhere between painting and sculpture. I had fun.....Now I have to burn the 1200 calories that I ingested!!!!! LOL -Merrill Kazanjian

Esta fue tan lejos de la pintura tradicional, como usted puede obtener. Pero aprendí un montón haciéndolo. Por ejemplo, puede capa de goma como si la capa de pintura y, curiosamente, la goma le da a un artista de un medio que: 1.) Se seca y se solidifica 2.)

See this guy? His tutorial has been on my channel for a few years......and he needs a girlfriend. So, take out your pocketbook protectors...... because this video will teach you how to draw a Female Nerd. Shes gonna be hot......in the Jeopardy sort of way. All you need is some drawing paper and pencil. Just listen to my steps and I will guide you through the process.

Graffiti Characters Bombing the Boulevard daily. out the techniques that I use to make art. But, for once, I want to talk to you about choices that I made with my own art. The first medium that I was proficient in was oil painting. But after college ended, I was too drained to paint after I got home from a day of work. The setup and clean up of paints took as long as the process of painting and the drying time was way too slow for my needs. I estimate that I painted only once or twice per week for about three hours per day and I only produced about two finished paintings per year. I did this for six years.

I slowly started dabbling with mixed media art. What you are seeing now is a process that I have worked out over the past 2 years for the past two years. This process allows me to have results similar to oil paintings, done in one day rather than six months. I even incorporate oil paint in to one of the steps.

Here it is:
1.) Pencil Drawing
2.) Illustration Markers (prismacolor, Ad, Decocolor)
3.) Color Pencil
4.) Thin Layer of Oil Paint
5.) Digital Additions (Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro)

I use this process to make my characters. Over the last 2 years I have made over 1500 characters. I scan them and save them as PNG files and I use them over and over in my artwork. PNG files stand for Portable Network Graphic and they are basically a filetype that works like a sticker. Stay tuned until the end of the video and I will show you what I mean. Contact me through my website merrillk.com or leave me a youtube comment and I will be sure to get back to you.

I used about five reference images for this work. I merged them (took my favorite parts of each and did this pencil drawing. The hand gesture was one of the best drawings that I did of a hand from my memory (head). This video is on time lapse, nut the pencil drawing part took the longest out of all the steps. Now I am using Illustration Markers (Prismacolor, Pantone, Ad Chartpak). The markers serve as the equivalent of an underpainting....they are fast, accurate and available in a variety of pre mixed colors and tones. The shirt will eventually be white, but I wanted the blue/green color to peek through the white when I add it in the next few steps. I am a HUGE fan of Prismacolor color pencils. They allow me to be accurate and to work with translucent color (meaning that light can only partially penetrate a layer of color pencil). Skin is translucent. Color pencils also blend (mix) very well with each other. Notice that I use several different, but similar (in tone and color) color pencils to do the arms and the shirt. Q: Why do paintings (most often) look more realistic than drawings?

A: Paintings are made of SEVERAL layers of (dried) transparent to translucent paint while drawings are done in one complex layer. Music by Kevin MacLeod at incompetech.com Song Protofunk

Thank you for picking my nose video....UMMM....Yeah lets start over....Today I am going to teach you how to draw the male nose. Drawing is much easier when we break things down in to shapes. So lets do that with the nose. Notice that there are two trapezoids and an oval. These are our primary shapes with the nose. So grab a piece of paper and draw them now. Don't forget to put in the nostrils.

Now, I will show you how to shade the nose. Don't worry, its going to be easy this time! You have two options to learn shading. Option one- click the link in the video description to go to a webpage that I made for this video..... this page has eight super easy steps and still images from this video. Option two is to keep watching this video. I think that you should do both!

STEP 1- In step one of drawing the male nose, focus your attention on the shapes. There are three main shapes. 1.) An oval at the bottom, 2.) A tall trapezoid for the bridge of the nose. 3.) An upside down trapezoid at the top of the nose. 4.) Don't forget to add the shapes for the nostrils.
STEP 2- For step two, simply erase the lines on the inside of the nose. It doesn't look good yet......So let's do a "nose job" with the shading, to make it look more realistic!
STEP 3- For this step, darken the nostrils. Te nostrils will be the darkest tone on any persons nose.
STEP 4- *****Notice that I ERASED the lines on the sides of the bridge of the nose!******* This is where most people go wrong in drawing the nose! The only part of the nose that can be expressed as a line is the bottom (Below and to the sides of the nostrils...especially the sides).
STEP 5- While I am not drawing eyes for this part, at the top of the bridge of the nose is the inner part of the orbit (of the eye). The orbits are also known as the eye sockets. They are the indentations where each eye sits. There is an orbit on either side of the nose. The tool that I am using in this picture is called a tortillion (also known as a blending stump or stub). It is condensed paper, shaped to the form of a pencil. It is used for blending. It is better to smudge or blend with this, rather than your hand, because your hand has oil that will be absorbed by the paper. Once the oil is absorbed in to the paper, the blending will be uneven, and over time, the paper will decay.
STEP 6- Notice the long trapezoid that I shaded in the middle of the nose. It is shaded very lightly. I put it is to differentiate the drawing from the white background. Please note that this will NOT always appear. All shadows are DIRECTLY RELATED to lighting. For this drawing, I assumed that the light was bright and directly above the nose.
STEP 7- I am putting on the finishing touches. I used my eraser to make two light highlights on the sides of each nostril. Often light bounces off surfaces and causes a "glare" effect rather than a "spotlight" effect. I also darkened the shadow below the nose.
STEP 8- In the final step I darkened the nostrils.

This video is going to show you how to draw Megan Fox. It doesn't matter what your experience level is at drawing. All you have to do is follow the step by step instructions in this video. If you give it a try, you might transform your artistic skills.
meganfox megan fox no clothes videos
Step 1.) Draw the rainbow shape and the wavy line below it.
Step 2.) Turn the rainbow shape in to an egg shape. Notice that the bottom part of the egg shape is bigger than the top. Add the two ellipses below the wavy line. Notice that the two elipses are slightly different from each other. The one on your right is more circular and the one on the left is more oval like.
Step 3.) Step 3 is the tricky step. Take some extra time to observe before you draw. Notice the placement and shape of the squiggly line for the nose. It is slightly lower than the half way point of the egg shape for the head. It is not as wide as the flattened M shape for the top lip. When you draw the top lip, be sure to observe that it is closer to the nose, than the chin.
Step 4.) Add the bottom lip and the space between the lips. Notice that I put a darker line below where the teeth will go. The bottom lip is similar to the width of the two shapes above it.
Step 5.) Just breathe! While this step looks difficult it is not urgent to perfectly get the shape of the hair. Remember,,,,,With the exception of the MTV show, Jersey Shore, hair is moving and never in a constant shape. Observe the hair in this image and draw it on your paper.
Step 6.) Add the eyes and eye brows. Notice that the eyebrows are at the top of the ellipses and the eyes fall in the center of the shapes. Notice that there is a double line over each eye. Also notice where the pupil and iris fall within the eye shape. Dont go too dark (yet) on the pupil and iris. She has green eyes. Dont go too dark (yet) on the pupil and iris. She has green eyes. is applied, the lashes stick together in a triangular shape. Her lashes are SUPER long. You can add that as a dark value right away. Dont go too dark (yet) on the pupil and iris. She has green eyes. When make up is applied, the lashes stick together in a triangular shape. The eyebrows can be shaded in as one tone (usually there is variation). The tone should be dark. Make sure that the bottom lashes are NOT as long as the top. With the mascara, her bottom lashes seem to be half the length of the top ones. This will seem wierd!.....But, the way that her head was turned, I only put in one nostril (with a hint of the second one......SOMEONE CALL STAR MAGAZINE! Megan Fox only has one nostril! Just kidding! :) Looks kind of scary now!....All drawings go through their arkward stages....at least mine do! Try to develop all parts of your drawing at the same pace The nose is tricky in this picture. There is a strong shadow on the right side of her face, but it is very complex. It is darkest 1.) in the nostril, 2.) followed by the bottom of the nose. 3.) The top of the nose by the right eye......It will take time to develop these tones. Notice how far back I hold my pencil.....I recommend that you try it! It works well for drawing and shading. When I need more control, I hold it closer to the tip. That brush is VERY soft tipped! I will use a bristle brush later.....and a blending stump. The bristle brush and the blending stump move the graphite more effectively, the soft tip brush gives a smoother blend. I use a HB pencil for most of the skin shading. I used a 4B for the lashes, eyes, nose, brows and the corner of the mouth. That is the 4B drawing pencil. That is the shadow created by her hair (overlapping her face), It is a very important shadow for this drawing to be believable. Corners of the mouth 4B..... lips HB. Shadow at the bottom of the bottom lip.....dont go too dark! Go light on the lines between the teeth. Hint at their existence....especially at the gum line. That is a 9B Graphite stick. It is extra wide to cover large areas. A graphite stick is the SAME THING as a pencil. The hair is very variable. I just recommend that you take the shape from this picture...but dont feel pressure to get it perfectly. Notice what I did on (her) right side....I drew in strong lines with the 9B graphite stick and then hatched (cross hatching) over it with a few lighter pencils (lighter as in 7B, 4B, HB). After I finish the hair, notice how much I use the HB pencil for the skin tones- (the yellow and the blue pencils are the HB's) megan fox magazine cover megan fox fashion "megan fox videos"

Think about it......If you give a child something to write with, they going to make images. Its an instinct, ingrained in every human being. As we get older we learn our letters and we suppress our visual instincts. Many people never attempt to reach their potential in drawing because they are scared of messing up or looking bad. You don't have to worry about messing up today......Tell em why Little Old Man!

As I was saying.....Today, YOU are going to Draw Katy Perry and you are going to surprise yourself with the quality of your work. I recommend that you hit the link in the video description. The link will take you to a page on my website with photos and text. This guide on my website will enhance your understanding of what I am teaching you in this video. Everybody grab your pencils and paper, lets get started.

Step 1: Draw a bowl shape.
Step 2: Observe and draw the nose shape at the top of the bowl shape. Notice its size and placement within the bowl shape. Also, add the lines which look like parentheses; notice their angle and their placement compared to the outside of the bowl shape.
Step 3: Add the three shapes to make the smile. Notice the placement of these shapes, compared to the nose and the smile lines. Be sure to notice that the upper lip is the smallest of the three shapes and the bottom lip is the biggest.
Step 4: Draw in the teeth. Notice that each tooth appears to become smaller as they go further back in the mouth. This is not the case in real life, but it is when we draw a smile. Try not to darken the lines between the teeth too much.
Step 5: Merrill? What the HECK is THAT? Relax! Don't worry!....Ill make this nice and simple. First, notice that the new shape is taller than the bowl shape. The triangular shape at the top center is slightly wider than the nose shape. Look closely and notice that the left side is squared and the right side is rounded. Also, be sure to see that the right side is lower than the left.
Step 6: Listen, youre a firework!!!! Don't freak out! This is EASY! Hair moves all the time. You do not need to get this shape perfectly. Use your observational skills to get the general shape of the hair. Again, don't be intimidated by this step.... just generalize what you see.
Step 7: Draw in the eye shapes. Notice that there is one eye length between the eyes. Notice the difference in size between the top eyelashes and the bottom ones. Notice the size of the iris compared to the whites of the eye.
Step 8: Draw in the shapes for her body.

Time Lapse educational video by Merrill Kazanjian

Step 1- Sketch of the structure of the human face.

Step 2- For step two, I am using a computer scissor to cut out the features of the face from various photographs that I have collected. After I cut them out, I digitally juxtapose them over my simple facial sketch. Artists have called this a digital collage or a photo-manipulation, but I like to say that I am Frankensteining the face together.

This process has evolved from a need to work faster. My main area of expertise is oil painting but some of my paintings have taken me over a year to complete. In addition to being an artist, I am also a full time teacher and a new father. So free time is truly a luxury; I had to come up with a creative way to do my work and this is one of several techniques that I use.

In my opinion, there is no artistic medium that can compete with the surface beauty of an oil painting. Hand made items will always be more beautiful than manufactured ones. I have seen a lot of Digital art that is mechanical and inorganic. But making digital art is a much faster process than making traditional art. I have a lot to say as an artist and not a lot of time to say it, so, for this piece, I am using this digital collage as an underpainting for what I will do later.


Step 3- In Step Three, I am lightening the areas that I plan to rework.

Step 4- For step four, print at maximum dpi and on the thickest paper that you can fit through your printer

Step 5- For step five we will cover the traditional part of tradigital- I am using prismacolor (prisma) pencils and illustration markers and decocolor paint markers. Prismacolor sells great colored pencils. Their covering power is very impressive. Their marks lie somewhere between translucent and opaque. They can be used to mimic scumbling and glazing. In order to glaze mix the color pencil with the prisma marker blender. Decocolor markers have a type of paint inside which is very similar to acrylic paint and has a similar covering power to acrylic paint. Whenever I need to make opaque marks, I use the decocolor markers.

Years ago, I would have considered a method such as this, cheating. I no longer feel that way because art is so much more than just drawing. Drawing is a way for an artist to communicate but it is not the only means that an artist could use to communicate. I feel that while this method is unconventional, it has allowed me to work faster and leave a human fingerprint on the artwork that I produce. The digital collage allows me to Frankenstein interesting facial features and come up with new imagery in a manner similar to the cutouts of Pablo Picasso and Romare Bearden.

I have made bodies in a very similar manner. It can be even more fun to digitally collage a body together. After I finish making a character, I like to use the character multiple times. Since I took my break from oil painting, exactly a year ago, in December 2007, I have made over 500 different characters. My characters are saved as digital files and are used multiple times in my artistic compositions. A sample of my latest work is at the end of this video. Thank you so much for watching!
