You've asked for it so here it is. This video will give you step by step instruction on how to draw Ms. Stefani Germanotta....also known as Lady Gaga. Grab your pencil and paper and pause the video at the end of each step and you will be able to draw her.

Step 1: Draw the shapes that you see. Notice that it is a slightly longer distance from the bottom of the sunglasses to the chin, than from the top of the sunglasses to the hairline.
Step 2: This shape does not have to be perfect so dont stress out. The hair is obviously widest at the bottom... but also notice that it is a similar distance from top of the head to the chin and from the chin to the bottom of the hair.
Step 3: In step three, we start to define Gaga's clothes. Also, add in the nose and some details to the sunglasses. There will be a close up of the face very soon if you cant see the details in this slide.
Step 4: Add the mouth and eyebrows.
Step 5: Add the details for the hair. Please note that the details do not have to be identical to mine.
Step 6: Add Lady Gaga's jacket.

This is the face detail slide. Take some time to check if your face proportions are correct.

A portrait of Vladimir (Wladimir) Lenin by Merrill Kazanjian. Dry Brush Oil painting on watercolor paper. I did a detailed pencil sketch on to the watercolor paper before laying down any paint. I am using Lamp Black oil paint (a black cooler in temperature). I am mixing the Lamp Black on Canvas paper. When I want to get a lighter tone, I mix the black with paint thinner (mineral spirits). When the black is more concentrated, it is darker. When the black is more diluted (with the mineral spirits) it does not have the same covering power and seems lighter in tone. FYI- Lenin died in 1924...but was NOT buried. He is "resting in state" for all to see in a mausoleum in Downtown Moscow. I used two round tipped brushes to do this artwork- One Size 5 medium and one Size three Medium. Both were (Synthetic) Sable. The only areas which I went dark black (pure paint no mineral spirits) right away were the eyes and the bottom of the eyebrows. I am working from three different reference images; all are within five years of his death. UMM.....yeah....thats Smirnoff Vodka to the left. To get inspired while drawing a Russian subject!!! Dont worry! Merrill RARELY gets "inspired" anymore! Kinda looks like Sean Connery now! ......But Lenin is not a "Shecks Shymbol" like "double O Sheven"..SHHHHHPLENDID! I usually finish the eyes first, but I wanted the eyes to be done last for Lenin, since his eyes are so intense. In other words, when the tones are set for the rest of the face, I can respond and stylize the eyes. When you darken the background, it allows you to draw more attention to the face. It also gives you a chance to "play up" the tones! The traditional approach is a criss cross- (Lighter side of face with darker background.....and vice versa) I am now putting on the finishing touches with prismacolor color pencils. Black White and Neutral Gray.
Music is by Kevin MacLeod of Incompetech.com. Songs- Song of the Volga Boatmen, Padanaya Blokov and Amazing Plan. Портрет Владимира (Владимира) Ленина Merrill Kazanjian. Картина маслом на бумаге акварелью. Я сделал подробный эскиз карандашом на акварельной бумаги, прежде чем заложить вниз от краски. Я использую лампы Черного масляной краской (черный кулер температуры). Я смешивания Лампа черного на бумаге, холсте. Когда я хочу получить светлый оттенок, я сочетание черного с краски (уайт-спирита). Когда черный более концентрированной, она темнее. Когда черный ослабляется (с уайт-спирита) он не обладает такими же полномочиями покрытие и, кажется, легкие тона. FYI-Ленин умер в 1924 году ..., но не похоронили. Он "отдыхал в состоянии" на всеобщее обозрение в мавзолее в центре Москвы. Я использовал две круглые щетки наконечником для этого работа-One Размер 5 средних и один размер 3 среде. Оба они были (синтетические) Соболь. Только области, которые я пошел черными (чистые краски не-спирита) сразу же были глаза, и в нижней части брови. Я работаю с трех разных образах ведения; все они в течение пяти лет его смерти. УММ ..... да .... тот Водка Smirnoff налево. Чтобы получить вдохновение во время рисования в русское подданство! Dont беспокойтесь! Merrill редко получает "вдохновил" больше!

Link- http://merrillk.com/index.php?part=fineart&articles_id=5315&collection=114 In this video, I will demonstrate how to build tones while drawing. I will teach you about drawing pencils and when and how to use them. And I will demonstrate the drawing technique of cross hatching. But, this time I am going to do something different....You have the option to follow along! I decided to go the extra mile and provide you with a worksheet for the final segment of this video. Take a second to go to http://merrillk.com and type in "shading resource"...print it out and do your best. We have a lot to cover, so lets start off with learning about pencils.

Key Points
- Start out with a light to neutral pencil and go darker as you go on.
- Each row of hatches should be done at a slightly different angle to the previous row.
-When you cross hatch you should build your tones up slowly
- You can differentiate your tones through adding pressure to the pencil but dont dent the paper or things will get more difficult.
- To make neat hatches, use the tip that I gave you (put a piece of paper by the edge)
-A slip sheet prevents smudges

This piece took me two hours to make! Take your time

Hey its Merrill. I recommend that you watch parts 1 and 2 before you watch Part 3... Click on the pictures to see parts 1 and 2.Welcome to part 3 of my workshop on proportions for portrait drawing ... This series is made for art students and this part will cover the profile (side) view of the head. I hope to give you some easy to remember rules and a formula, so that you will be able to draw the human head from your memory. Lets get started by reviewing what we learned already. Videos one and two proved that 1.) The eyes are not at the center of the head. 2.) Its generally five eye lengths across the face if you include the ears. 3.) Its one eye length between the two eyes. 4.) The outer corners of the nose generally lines up with the outer edge of the tear duct in the eye. 5.) The corners of the mouth is generally not as wide as the midpoint of the eye (but its close) 6.) The ears generally fall between the upper eyelid and the bottom of the nose. Now, lets look at the head from the side/profile view and add to our existing knowledge. 1.) The first question asks. Is the head more tall?......... or is it more deep? In other words, lets compare the distance between the chin and the top of the head.......Wow, it looks close......but there is a strange reason for that...........Observe the slope of the forehead and the shape of the top of the head. When we measure from the jaw line we go up to the top front of the head.......which is lower in height than the back of the head when we are looking forwards. Notice the difference when we measure the distance from the chin to the top....back of the head....there is no comparison anymore. For our purposes, lets think of the head as an egg shape from the side. But the egg is not straight up and down, it is at an angle.......HMMMM egg shaped....maybe Stewie's head isn't that out of proportion.Now that we understand the basic shape of the head from the side, lets look for universal rules. A good place to start is Leonardo DaVinci 2.) Leonardo said, "The distance from the middle of the nose to the bottom of the chin, is half the length of the face." This rule applied to all 8 of the models.....and the middle of the nose as a half way point, compliments what we learned in Video 1 and 2. Lets add it to our formula.3.) Leonardo also measured the distance between the chin and the throat and the mouth and the bottom of the chin as equal distances. This rule applied to all 8 of the models.4.) he also said, "From the chin to the back of the neck, is the same distance as between the mouth and the roots of the hair." Once again, this rule applied to all 8 models.The three previous rules were helpful, but some of Davinci's formula didnt apply to our models......For instance, The space from the chin to the base of the nose e f is the third part of the face and equal to the length of the nose and to the forehead. This breaks the face up in to three equal parts....but it only applied to five of our models.
Finally, DaVinci stated, "From the eyebrow to the junction of the lip with the chin, and the angle of the jaw and the upper angle where the ear joins the temple will be a perfect square.......... Zero out of eight people formed a perfect square from the four points that DaVinci named. I am mentioning this because we should keep the relationship between these four points in the back of our mind when we draw from observation, but lets leave them out of our proportion formula. One of the biggest mistakes that students make when drawing the head from profile is the depth of the ear, or on other words, how far back it is from the face. I recently came across a website that stated that the ear is exactly half the distance between the face and the back of the head.......WRONG!!!! It is definitely further back than that. The green line measures the distance from the face to the midpoint of the ear and the red line measures the distance between the midpoint of the ear and the back of the head. I estimate that the midpoint of the ear is 55 to 70 percent of the distance from the face to the back of the head. Be sure to notice that there is a range of values rather than a universal rule, so we will have to average our answer. Now I am going to test a measurement from one of my former teachers at the Art Students League of New York who taught me that there is an imaginary equilateral triangle that connects the pupil, the back arch of the ear and the chin. When I tested this measurement, it existed in 7 of the 8 people I measured. However, there is a flaw to this system. Notice that the bottom point exists at different points on the jaw line. But overall, this measurement helps us see that it is usually an equal distance between the eyes and the chin, the eyes and the ear and the chin and the ear.

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.

George W. Bush: Thank you for the introduction-.....You're welcome George! Strong opinions can inspire powerful works of art, so for the remainder of this video, I am going to help you draw a portrait of the most controversial man in the world. I promise to leave my personal politics aside so that I can help you create a great drawing. It doesn't matter if you have ever studied art before. If you to follow the instructions, and take your time, you'll be amazed at the quality of your work.
Before we start, I recommend that you hit the link in the video description to download a step by step cheat sheet with pictures and text that will accompany the narration of this video.
Also, please subscribe to my channel if you haven't done so already. Just click on the Little Old Man in front of the Stealth Bomber..... Lets Begin.
Step 1.) Observe, then draw the shape that you see. This will be President Bush's forehead. Notice that the eyebrow region is similar to how a child draws a bird.
Step 2.) Observe, then put in the two shapes for Dubya's hair. Take your time and compare the size of each shape.
Step 3.) Its time to put in Dubya's peepers. Instead of just focusing on the eye, I put in the entire eye region.
Step 4.) In step four, I added the bottom of the nose. Take your time to notice the spacing between the eye shapes and the line for the nose.
Step 5.) Add the wrinkle lines to the side of the nose and President Bush's mouth. Notice that the region between the top lip and the bottom of the nose is trapezoidal. Also notice that the former President's top lip is extremely thin and that the bottom lip is only slightly thicker than the center part, where his teeth are.
Step 6.) Add the chin to your drawing. Also, notice the extra shadow line that I added.
Step 7.) Add the neck shape and the two ears. Don't stress too much about the shape of the neck, but know that most caricatures of the former President, portray him with big ears. Democrats and Republicans can both agree that Dubya has some prominent cartilage on the side of his head.
Step 8.) Add the teeth. Be sure to notice the strong shadow on the sides of the mouth but resist the urge to go too dark between each tooth.
Step 9.) Spend some extra time on step 9. Add in President Bush's eyes and eyebrows. His eyes seem smaller than the average person and there is slightly less space between them than most people. Also, be sure to notice that there is only a small amount of space between the eyes and eyebrows. Finally, add more detail than usual to the region under each eye.
The shading part covers proper ways to erase with a kneaded eraser and covers strategies for shading President Bush's face. President Bush was in his early sixties when the reference image was shot. Coincidentally, he has more wrinkles and areas of tone and gradation on his face (when compared to a person who is younger.....or injected with plastic LOL). He still has a lot of hair, but it is thinner and greyer than somebody who is younger. The hairline should be shaded as a gradual transition between the forehead and the hair. Darkest areas of his hair are the part, the upper temple region and the area above the ear. The President's Eyes are lighter in color, but still remain one of the darker tones on the face. His eyebrows are low and there is barely any space between the top of the eyes and the eyebrows. To add the actual tones, I use cross hatching and smudging with a tortillion and paintbrush (use a q-tip if you dont have either). To achieve the darker tones, I use a 4B and a 7B pencil. Most of the shading was done with a #2 (HB) Pencil. Use a slip sheet to prevent the oils from your hand from reaching the surface of the paper. how to drawn a man step by step

William "Will" Turner, Jr. is a central character in the first three titles of the Pirates of the Caribbean film series produced by Walt Disney Pictures. He is played by Orlando Bloom (and as a child by Dylan Smith in the movie's prologue). Will is a blacksmith's apprentice working in Port Royal. He secretly loves the governor's daughter, Elizabeth Swann (played by Keira Knightley), although he occupies a lower social class than she. Will is an exceptional swordsman, although he lacks actual combat experience. Although mild mannered, Will is brave, as seen when he confronts Captain Jack Sparrow in a sword fight and by his response to Barbossa's attack on Port Royal. He is loyal to those he cares about and would risk everything to protect them, especially Elizabeth. This trait is seen throughout the films as Will's character develops more by his reaction to unforeseen circumstances rather than his personal ambition or deliberate choices. Most likely he would have continued plying his trade, never presuming to rise above his current station, pining for the woman he believes he can never have. At his best, Will is clever, heroic, and courageous and never shirks responsibility or leaves an obligation unfulfilled. He can also be preoccupied and brooding and, early on, demonstrated rather simplistic and naïve views, although his character gradually matures and deepens into a more complex and worldly man as the films progress. Will's final costume in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is reminiscent of Errol Flynn's swashbuckler movie roles. There is also a nod to Douglas Fairbanks when Turner uses his knife to glide down the ship's sail in Dead Man's Chest, just as Fairbanks did in the 1926 film, The Black Pirate.

Will is about 20 years old as the series begins. He has medium length, brown hair, worn loose or tied back in a short ponytail, brown eyes, white skin. In the first movie, he wears a puffy-sleeved white shirt, a simple brown jerkin, brown breeches, thick brown stockings and leather shoes with metal buckles. He also wears a grey, wide-brimmed hat with a white feather through the back of it, a belt buckle around the top of it, and a design bordering the edges. In the second and third movies he wears various outfits including a fashionable suit and tricorne hat for his wedding that is of a typical style for upper-class gentlemen from his era. In the second film, he also wore a leather jacket over a white shirt, breeches, and, as requested by Orlando Bloom, boots. In both sequels, he is also seen wearing a leather cord necklace with what appear to be charms and other trinkets hanging from it. In the third film, he predominantly wears a puffy-sleeved maroon shirt, a black coat, dark breeches, and leather boots. Sometime between Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, Will acquires a tiny gold-hoop earring that he wears throughout the third film. Just after Will becomes immortal, he appears in a green bandana and a bit of blue eye make-up. His hair changes from slightly oily and wavy in the first and second movie to dryer and fuller, possibly the effects of sailing. In one scene in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl when Turner and Jack are fighting in the blacksmith's shop, there is a glimpse of Orlando Bloom's wrist tattoo of the Elvish word for "nine". Bloom and the other actors except John Rhys-Davies who comprised the nine "Fellowship of the Ring" members in The Lord of the Rings trilogy have this same tattoo to commemorate their participation in the films. While some felt his tattoo should have been covered for his "Pirates" role, the producers simply stated, "Will has a 'pretty' tattoo on his wrist."

- For the first time in history, artists from around the world are communicating with each other and learning from each other.
- We can not only see each others work but often, we can see how the work was made.
- The master artists of this generation are exhibiting their work on youtube right now.
- This is unprecedented in history.
Artists of the past have their work exhibited in museums and museums have overflowed with generations of masterpieces. Our generation has YouTube. Yes, it is a museum. Think about it. Even major museums are exhibiting on YouTube right now. The current generation of artists has more expressive possibilities of artistic media than generations of the past, and I think that we have carried on arts rich tradition. Here are 20 examples of what I consider to be, Master art work. Click on any of the annotated links and they will open in a new tab.

But does YouTube fully understand the scope of what its created?

That question will be answered in time. But as of right now there is no category specifically for visual artists. The closest three categories are howto and style, education and film and animation. Howto and style is dominated by make up tutorials, workout videos and fashion tips. The Education category does not mention the visual arts and that is especially scary in a time when so many schools have totally eliminated the arts from their curriculums. Film and animation is the closest match but its classification is much more limiting than a Visual Arts category.

It is time to mobilize people. A Visual Arts category would mean a lot more views for all of us. And if you think about it, that is all an artist ever asks. They want a chance to create and to be seen. Just like how a poet uses words, we use imagery to communicate. And many have said that a picture is worth a thousand words. It is my new years resolution to help YouTube realize that it needs a visual arts category. But the good thing about YouTube is that they do listen. Think of how they are always asking for feedback.

So what is the plan, Merrill? I am going to ask you to consider doing two things. One.....Post a V-Log telling YouTube why they need a visual arts category. I don't care if you are Mark Crilley with over 400,000 subscribers or if you joined YouTube yesterday. If you are tired of ranking behind 10 pages of make up tutorials, do a V-Log and either post it to this video or mail it to me. I will put your v-logs in to a playlist which I will attempt to present to YouTube.

Two.....leave a comment in the youtube forum. I recommend going to the forum that I linked to in the video description. My friend Teresa Richardson, who has the fourth largest arts channel on YouTube already started this conversation in this forum. If there is enough comments, an administrator might respond. I encourage you to keep your comments positive and take the perspective that YouTube has given us a great thing, but we want to suggest a way to make it better.

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.

A demonstration of an illustration technique with illustration markers and color pencils. See more of my work Here: http://merrillk.com One hour compressed in to less than one minute (Time Lapse). A time lapse / speed draw demonstration in time for St. Patrick's day. I used a mixed media approach to draw this character. I used illustration markers (prismacolor and AD), color pencils and acrylic paint. The color pencils are great for detail and the illustration markers are a fast way to lay down base color. I used only white acrylic paint to cover some mistakes on the sides of the head. I also used a paint brush and mineral spirits (turpentine, turpenoid, paint thinner) to blend the color pencil to give this angry Leprechaun a more realistic look. I made the body separately and I used Photoshop to attatch the head to the body.(Check out some of my tradigital videos to see how I do that). Thanks for checking out the video- Merrill Kazanjian merrillk.com

Une heure comprimé à moins d'une minute. Un laps de temps / vitesse de démonstration tirer à temps pour la Saint-Patrick's day. J'ai utilisé une approche mixte des médias pour attirer ce personnage. J'ai utilisé des marqueurs de l'illustration (Prismacolor et AD), les crayons de couleur et de peinture acrylique. Les crayons de couleur sont idéales pour le détail et l'illustration marqueurs sont un moyen rapide de fixer la couleur de base. J'ai utilisé la peinture acrylique blanche uniquement pour couvrir les quelques erreurs sur les côtés de la tête. J'ai aussi utilisé un pinceau et minérales (essence de térébenthine, turpenoid, diluant à peinture) afin de mélanger les crayons de couleur à donner à cette colère Leprechaun un look plus réaliste. J'ai fait séparément le corps et j'ai utilisé Photoshop attatch à la tête de l'organisme. (Voir certains de mes tradigital vidéos à voir comment je le faire). Merci pour le contrôle de la vidéo-Merrill Kazanjian merrillk.com

Here is a ballpoint pen drawing I did of a Bull Skull. I hope you all like it.

About the clip at the end: Don't worry! They are OKAY, and the bull is not being harmed. This is footage I recorded at a rodeo about 2 years ago. I added this clip to the video because, I thought it would fit the theme. Plus, I added all those sound effects to make it more dramatic.
