Left-hand drawing can be very tricky, but I see it as gaining a valuable skill. Portraiture is a great way to learn to draw so I chose this method to train my left hand. Subtlety in pencil portraits is so important and shading plays a huge part. Shading with my left hand was a real challenge but that's why we practice! I have chosen to turn this pencil sketch into a timelapse but I will be showing more real-time drawings for many of my future videos and art tutorials as well.
Materials I used in this video:
HB Pencil --Harder led than B pencils. Great for lighter areas
B Pencil --Softer led than the HB pencil. Great for darker shadows
Kneaded eraser --Very malleable eraser which increases the accuracy of erasing

How / Why I sharpen my pencil the way I do:
I use an Exacto knife to shave it to a point and then use fine sandpaper wrapped around a wood block to further sharpen the point.
The pencil will stay sharper for longer and you can get finer detail.
