Men can sometimes struggle with words.

Little Old Man: Are you a parking ticket?
Little Old Lady: (What?)
Little Old Man: Because, you got fine written all over you.

Fortunately, Merrill is here to help. Imagery can replace words and today, I am going to teach you how to make a drawing that you could give to your crush or your significant other. All you will need is paper, a pencil and some romantic incentive and I will take care of the rest.

It has been said that a picture is worth 1000 words, so you probably don't want to mess up this drawing. Don't worry. You won't. Hit the link in the video description. The link will take you to my guide with photos and text, which will make this drawing as easy as possible.

Little Old Man: Baby, you are like a student and I am like a math book, you solve all my problems

Little Old Lady: (Slap)
Little Old Man: I'm not a player I just crush a lot.

Step 1: Draw an oval and two tree stump shapes.
Step 2: Draw the fist shape. Be sure to notice its placement within the oval shape.
Step 3: Draw the shape that I just added. Notice that it looks like a cartoon face from profile view. Also notice that a part of this shape goes outside the oval shape.
Step 4: Add the upside down rainbow shape, between the two shapes from the previous steps.
Step 5: Add the fingernails.
Step 6: Add the lines between the fingers.
Step 7: Erase the egg shape.

This video will give you step by step "Lin"struction on how to draw New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin. All you need is a sharp"lin"ed pencil and some paper. Just follow my easy steps and I will "Lin"hance your artistic abilities and "Lin"able you to draw a portrait of the Knicks "Lin"famous point guard, who is currently living a "Lin"derella story. Whats that you say? You shoot free throws like Shaquille O'neal and you make stick figures look fat when you draw? Oh thats silly talk! Dont worry! This is a team effort.

Let me say this in your "Lin"go because I dont want to be mis"lin"terpreted. This will be as easy as playing "Lin"tendo. Drawing is part of every persons basic "Lin"stincts. It is natural to draw and it is a "lin"stigated effort to learn your letters. We are going to turn back the clock and re"lin"vent your artistic vocabulary.

What? Are you not "Lin"tertained? Put down your Egg McMuff"lin" and grab a pencil. Lets begin!

Step 1: Draw the two shapes that you see. Be sure to notice the angle of the V shape. Notice that the right side of the V is slightly higher than the left side.
Step 2: Add the five shapes that I just added. Be sure to notice their scale and how they overlap the shapes from step 1.
Step 3: Add one more finger to the shape from step 2.
Step 4: Add the tall U shape. Notice its angle and observe that it is slightly taller than the shape from step 1.
Step 5: Add the shapes around the U shape.
Step 6: Point guards need fingers. Give Linsanity some fingers.
Step 7: Give the man a jersey! The Jersey is about 3 times as tall as the shape from step 1.
Step 8: Add his other arm.
Step 9: Now its time to letter his Jersey. Just remember that the New York is at armpit level. And the number 1 is under the New and the 7 is under the York. If you want to challenge yourself, try to leave a white outline around the letters.
Step 10: Make an oval for the head. If you want to make him a bobble head make a large oval. Either way, try to keep the same height versus width proportions as mine. Notice that I added three lines. The head can be split up in four somewhat equal sections; 1.) chin to bottom of nose 2.) bottom of nose to eyebrows 3.) eyebrows to hairline ....and 4.) hair. Notice that the only section that was slightly longer on Jeremy Lin was from bottom of nose to chin. The other three sections fit that formula perfectly. The hair might seem shorter, but that is because I am going to extend it when I shade his hair.
Step 11: Add the two shapes for the orbits of each eye. Notice their scale compared to the head shape and notice that that they are situated towards your right.
Step 12: Add the hairline.
Step 13: Add the nose.
Step 14: Add the ears.
Step 15: Add the rainbow shapes for the upper eyelids.
Step 16: Place the pupil and iris underneath.
Step 17: Add the eyebrows at the top of the eye shape.
Step 18: Add the eyelids above the eyes.
Step 19: Add the opening for the mouth. Notice that it is a flattened half circle and that it is situated more towards the nose than the chin.
Step 20: Add the lips. Notice that the upper lip and lower lip are similar in size.
Step 21: It is time to do the hair. The first thing that you need to do is erase the original line because the hairline is a soft line. I extended the hair on the top and in front. Both have very soft edges.
Step 22: Will cover the top of Jeremy Lin's face. I started off by erasing the lines. Then I added wrinkle lines to the forehead since he has a tense expression. Then I darkened the area above the eyes and used the blending stump to smudge. I used the eraser to create highlights.
Step 23: There are very distinct lines at the bottom of the orbits of the eye on Jeremy Lin's face. They point towards the bottom of the ears. Generally speaking the neck will be darker than the face. Jeremy Lin has a very muscular face so dont worry about softening things. Its ok to leave jagged edges. He has a very dark shadow under his chin.
Step 24: I started by creating a dark line around the collar and the sleeves. Then I added a second line above it which left a solid white line in between. The lettering is tricky. You just have to take your time with it. Try to maintain the white edge around the letters and numbers.
Step 25: In step 25 we draw the hands and arms. Use the eraser to add highlights and the pencil to add shading.

Drawing Tutorial- Howto draw Bruno Mars Step by Step. Today, if you feel like doing something, I am going to teach you how to draw Bruno Mars. Don't just lay in your bed, kick up your feet and stare at a fan. Thats just silly talk. Artists have to remain occupied or else we wind up moving to the South of France to chop off our ears. So I recommend that you get out of your snuggie and grab a pencil and some paper. While you are at it, hit the link in the video description. The link will take you to my guide with photos and text, which accompanies this video. It will make drawing Bruno Mars a lot less difficult. Oh and if you wanted to see someone dougie, here you go.
Step 1: Draw the two shapes that you see. I recommend that you start out in the lower right corner.
Step 2: Draw in the neck shape. Try to match the width and the height of this shape as closely as you can.
Step 3: Draw in the other shoulder.
Step 4: Draw in a bowl shape for the bottom of his head.
Step 5: Add the top of the head. Notice that it is significantly larger than the bowl shape at the bottom of the head. Do your best to observe and draw the contour line as accurately as possible.
Step 6: Add the triangular shape to the side of the head.
Step 7: Add the ear shape. Notice that its origin is at the line which runs accross the bowl shape.
Step 8: This is the trickiest step. Draw the shapes that I just added. This tip will help. It is a similar distance from the eyebrow to the bottom of the nose, as it is from the eyebrow to the hairline.
Step 9: Draw in the shape for Bruno's left eye socket.
Step 10 Draw in the shape for Bruno's left eye and eyebrow. Notice the placement of both of these shapes within the eye socket shape.
Step 11: Complete the nose shape
Step 12: Add Bruno's hat. Look closely and see that his hat is basically a banana shape and a trapezoid.
Step 13: Add Bruno Mars upper lip.
Step 14: Add Bruno Mars bottom lip.

Tonight we dine in Hell. If you are up for the challenge, I will teach you how to draw a very angry greek man who likes to kick people in to bottomless pits.
It doesnt matter if you are new to drawing the more you sweat here , the less you'll bleed in battle. Just follow my step by step instructions... and remember...No retreat, no surrender. Our pencils will block out the sun...Then we shall draw in the shade.

Merrill.....um this is Madness


Madness? THIS IS KAZANJIANM!!

Be sure to pause the video at the end of each step.

Step 1: Draw in the Beard Shape. Be sure to notice that it is slightly asymetrical.
Step 2: Draw in the shape for the hair. Notice that the shapes from steps 1 and 2 are equal in height.
Step 3: Draw in the ovals for the eye sockets and the ear shape
Step 4: Add the shape for his clothing. This shape does not have to be perfect but notice that it is slightly wider at the neck.
Step 5: is a difficult step. The sword shape is slightly taller than the head and it points away from the body and towards the left upper corner of the page. The fingers will be heavily shaded later so it is more important that you focus on the shape of the hand. Take extra time on this step.
Step 6: Add some light lines to define the chest and left arm. Do not press hard, just hint at their existence, they will be shaded heavily later. Add an arrow going through Leonidas' chest......
Step 7: Take your time and add the detail to Leonidas' face. Take extra time to observe the placement of the teeth and the eyes. In order to get a likeness this is an important step to conquer. Gerard Butler

Link- http://merrillk.com/index.php?part=fineart&articles_id=5980&collection=114 Today, YOU are going to draw Kobe Bryant. It doesn't matter if you have prior art training or not. This video will break the process down in to simple steps so that anyone can do it. Grab a pencil and paper and let me show you what I mean. Remember to pause the video when you need to. Here we go.
Step 1: Draw an oval shape for Kobe's head. Notice that the bottom of the oval looks like an upside down trapezoid while the top of the oval shape is rounded.
Step 2: Make four horizontal lines. The top line MUST intersect the midway point of the oval shape. The lowest line should be placed at the bottom of the chin. After drawing the top and bottom lines, add two EVENLY SPACED lines between the top and bottom line. At the end of step two, you should have THREE evenly spaced segments between the top and bottom lines (refer to the picture).
Step 3: Observe the six dots that I added. The top four map out the corners of Kobe's eyes, while the bottom two map out the corners of his mouth. Lets look at their relationship. Notice that these dots are leaning towards the right side of the oval. This is due to the fact that Kobe's head is slightly turned. Also, take a second to notice the distance in between the two eyes is equal to one eye length. Finally, notice that the middle part of the space designated for each eye, will line up with the outer corners of the mouth. Now, draw in the six dots.
Step 4: Draw in the eyes....The upper eyelid as a rainbow shape and the bottom lid is close to a straight line. Notice that the iris is partially blocked by the upper eyelid.
Step 5: Encapsulate the eye in the oval shape that I just added.

Step 6: In this step, make the bottom of the nose by drawing three connected, upside down arches. Do not worry about the bridge of the nose yet. After you make the bottom of the nose, draw the shape for the upper lip...... The upper lip looks like a squished McDonalds logo (picture the golden arches squished).

Step 7: Add the bottom lip. It is similar to a banana shape. Notice that the bottom lip is thicker than the top lip. Now that we have the eyes and part of the mouth done, take a second to notice the perfect square that is formed when you connect the points from the middle of the eye and the corners of the mouth. Make adjustments if you do not have this perfect square.
Step 8: Draw in the two shapes between the eyes and nose. Like the bottom lip, these shapes are very similar to banana shapes. They will help us shade the nose later.
Step 9: Now add in the ears. Due to the fact that Kobe's head is turned; it appears that his left ear is smaller than his right. This, of course is not the case, but draw what you see.
Step 10: Draw in the lines, stemming from the chin, as well as Kobe's dimple lines.
Step 11: Draw in Kobe's hairline. Again, due to the turn of his head, you will see more hair on the right side.
Step 12: Erase the construction lines
Now, I will show you how to shade your drawing. Don't worry, this too, will be easy! You have three options to learn shading. Option one- click the link in the video description to go to a webpage that I made for this video..... on my website, merrillk.com. You will see a series of 17 steps with picture references and words. You will also see a free downloadable resource that you can print. Option two is to watch a shading demonstration in the second part of this video; and option three is a separate video; where I will demonstrate how I shaded Kobe at a slower pace. Please take advantage of all of these options. I am confident that they will help.

I will discuss the tools that are needed and how to use these drawing tools. I recommend that you use drawing paper rather than printer paper. You will also need:

- A bristle brush
- A blending stump (also called a tortillion) or a Q-Tip
- A kneaded eraser

You will use these tools

This video will give you step by step instruction on how to paint a realistic human eye. Just follow my step by step instructions and pause the video at the end of each step and you will surprise yourself with the end result. Lets begin.

Step 1: Draw the almond shape and the U shape to begin your eye. Please note that I am using a regular pencil on canvas paper. Many painters prefer to use a charcoal pencil for when they draw their under drawing, since the charcoal will blend in to the paint.

Step 2: Add the circle for the iris and then the line for the fold of the eyelid.

Step 3: Add the shapes in the corners of the eye.

Step 4: Add the eyelashes. Be sure to notice that the eyelashes on the top are more full and longer.

Step 5: Add the eyebrow. Notice that it slants downwards towards the inner corner of the eye. Be sure to notice its placement in relation to the eye shape.

Now its time to paint. I chose a simple palette with very common colors such as Lamp Black, Titanium White, Ultramarine Blue, Cadmium Red, Cadmium Yellow and Green Earth. For the next section, pause the video every 30 seconds and observe the image on the screen. Also be sure to listen to the hints that I give you as I narrate.

Every artist goes through growing pains while learning their craft. I recently got an interesting comment from a subscriber who wrote, " Merrill could you please make another video for practicing the shading. I made my drawings good than i screw them up with shading! please help!

Fut Duppe was famous for ruining his portraits, by shading too much. His name has entered the colloquial and artists often express their displeasure while critiquing a work by saying phrases such as, "Wow! Your drawing is Fut Duppe" meaning that it is flawed in the quality of the shading. Here is an example of a Fut Duppe Drawing. Girls dont have moustaches........Thats Fut Duppe.

Step 5: Take out a ballpoint pen in a color that is not similar to the pencil shading of the Fut Dup Drawing. Go over every correct line. Do not touch the Fut Duppe parts. It is imperative that you do not move the paper while doing this to prevent a second Fut Duppe Drawing. Essentially what we are making is a print.

If you follow my steps correctly the graphite on the back will make a print on the paper below, thanks to the pressure from the ball point pen.

Step 6: After you finish retracing the lines that you want with the ballpoint pen, remove the Fut Duppe Drawing from the paper below. You are now be able to restart your shading and there should be no fear of screwing up again because this process can be repeated as many times as you want.

So there you have it. Now the young artists of the world know that can take chances with their shading without worrying that they are going to BLEEP it up. Happy drawing everybody!

Try to notice that the shape around an angry eye is much more compressed than a calm eye. When a person is enraged, the muscles around the eye tighten and pull the eyelids inward. This creates deeper shadows and uncovers more of the white of the eye. In the angry eye there is a separation between the top of the iris and the eyelid.

Step 1- Draw a circle with a rainbow shape above it. Remember to leave a space about half of the size of the iris in between the upper lid and upper iris.
Step 2- Draw in the shape of the eyebrow. Make sure that it is angled downwards towards the inner corner of the eye. It should actually connect with the eye lashes on the upper eye lid
Step 3- Draw in the pupil and the lower eyelid. Leave a black space in the pupil for a reflection. The lower eyelid should graze the bottom of the iris.
Step 4- The bottom eyelid is literally wrapped around the eyeball. Make a bowl like shape below the eye and add a squiggly line on the inner corner of the eye to hint at the side of the nose.
Step 5- Shade the pupil and iris and the upper eye lashes. Please note that the upper eyelashes are thicker and fuller than the bottom ones.
Step 6- Shade in the eyebrow. Please notice that it is not evenly shaded throughout.
Step 7- Darken the area around the eye but do not touch the white area. The eyes seem to sink in more when a person is angry, creating deeper shadows. Merrill Kazanjian
Trate de notar que la forma alrededor de un ojo enojado comprimido es mucho más tranquilo que un ojo. Cuando una persona se enfureció, los músculos alrededor de los ojos y apretar los párpados tire hacia adentro. Esto crea las sombras más profundas y descubre más de la sustancia blanca del ojo. En el ojo enojado hay una separación entre la parte superior del iris y el párpado. Paso 1 - Dibuja un círculo con forma de un arco iris por encima de ella. Recuerde que debe dejar un espacio alrededor de la mitad del tamaño del iris en la parte superior entre la tapa y la parte superior del iris. Paso 2 - Dibuje en la forma de la ceja. Asegúrese de que está en ángulo hacia abajo hacia la esquina interior del ojo. Debe conectarse realmente con los ojos las pestañas en la parte superior párpado Paso 3 - Dibujar en el alumno y el párpado inferior. Deje un espacio negro en el alumno para una reflexión. El párpado inferior debe rozar la parte inferior del iris. Paso 4 - La parte inferior del párpado es literalmente envuelto en todo el globo ocular. Hacer un plato debajo de la forma como el ojo torcido y añadir una línea en la esquina interior del ojo a la pista a un lado de la nariz. Paso 5 - La sombra de la pupila y el iris del ojo y la parte superior de las pestañas. Tenga en cuenta que la parte superior de las pestañas son más anchas y más completa que la parte inferior queridos. Paso 6 - Sombra en la ceja. Tenga en cuenta que no es uniforme en toda la sombra. Paso 7 - Oscurecer la zona alrededor del ojo, pero no toque el área blanca. Los ojos parecen hundirse en más de una persona cuando está enojado, la creación de las sombras más profundas.

Today, I am going to demonstrate a new artistic technique. I am going to merge the best qualities of two artistic mediums; oil painting and color pencil. What you are now watching is a time lapse of me building up layers of illustration marker and color pencil over a pencil drawing. In about a minute, I will slow the video down to show you that color pencils can be blended by using mineral spirits and a paint brush. I am doing this artwork on 110 lb. bond paper and please note that this method will not work as well on simple 20 lb. printer paper. This drawing was done as a tribute to Manhattanville Colleges iconic History Professor- Mr. Lawson Bowling. Professor Bowling is a mentor and friend of mine. He just completed his 25th year of service at Manhattanville College. It is an honor to give him this drawing and possibly turn him in to an internet celebrity.

The best quality of oil painting is that you can 1.) Blend while the paint is wet and 2.) Add multiple layers of new paint after the previous layer dries. The greatest nuance of color pencil drawing is the accuracy that is attained by using the very fine point at the tip of the pencil. I dip the paintbrush in to the mineral spirits and then dab it on a paper towel; then I drag the brush over my drawing. The mineral spirits quickly break down the thick cake of color pencil. The soft tip of the paint brush allows me to move and blend the pigment from the color pencil in a manner that is similar to the process of painting. It takes only a few minutes for the mineral spirits and pencil to dryAfter the mineral spirits dry, you can add more layers of color pencil. I have actually finished an oil painting with color pencil and an oil paint medium called liquin before, but to save time, I built up the flesh tones today with markers and color pencil.

This video shows my process for making an illustration. I use prismacolor illustration markers for the first layer and color pencils (prisma once again) and a wax blending stick for the second layer. I make my illustrations in two steps. Step 1- I observe my reference drawings or photos and try to see what lies beneath. There is no way to blend markers in the same way that one can blend paint (ironically even with a marker blender) so I lie down the base tones with markers (the first layer). Step 2- Is created with color pencils. Color pencils are mixable / blendable and I mix the color pencils directly above my marker drawing. I use the wax stick to finish the surface and tie everything together. - Merrill Kazanjian
0:13 Take a second to observe the colors lying beneath the surface.
1.)Yellow/green/orange at the top
2.) Orange top/middle
3.) Brownish purple in the shadow on the left.
4.) Strong red on the right side. Everywhere else (but the red) is lower in chroma (intensity of color)
0:20- I start my drawing with the yellowed orange marker from prismacolor. I try to match the undertone.
0:38 I use marker color Apple Green at the top of the apple
0:48 I use the color Mahogany Red to add the general shape and color of the shadows
1:02 I use the marker Poppy Red to create the high chroma red on the area next to the highlight.
1:20 Now I use Tuscan Red to adjust the shadow. This color is a bot deeper than Mahogany Red.
1:28 I add the color Lemon Yellow (for the stem)
1:38 I use the Colored Pencil: French Grey 30% to drop the intensity of the color for the highlight. Highlights are NOT intense in color.
1:45 I use the colored pencil Goldenrod to get the yellow values towards the top of the apple.
2:15 I use the colored pencil White to create the bright highlight.
2:25 I use the color pencil Carmine Red to get the beautiful bright "fire engine red" hue on the side of the apple.
2:37 I alternated between the colors Canary Yellow and White to define the top of the apple.
2:54 Tuscan Red is one of the most important colors that you could get in your palette. It is strong (intense), dark in tone and purplish brown in hue. It is great for portraits as well!
3:06 I am using the colored pencil Carmine Red again. I am using it to start my blending so that my drawing does not look segmented.
3:10 I am using the Tuscan Red again and for the same reason as the previous color. I am trying to blend and make smooth color transitions.
3:20 For the first time in this illustration drawing, I am using the color Olive Green to do the shadow of the stem.
3:26 The colored pencil Magenta is a purplish red which makes a great bridge between the Tuscan Red and the Carmine Red.
3:31 Now, I am using the color Black Cherry which is a bit darker than the Tuscan Red. This color will help me define the edges a bit more.
3:42 The Prismacolor Art Stix Colorless Wax Blender is a very handy tool to finish an illustration. All it is, is the wax (the binder) for the colored pencils without the color. It is an incredible tool for colored pencil artists. Notice that I blend in the opposite direction as my cross hatching.
4:13 I use a variety of color pencils such as Black, White, Goldenrod, Carmine Red and Olive Green to finish my drawing.
