    • Hi Frederick,

      The mechanical pencil used here is by Staedtler. The lead is quite a bit thicker than a regular mechanical pencil. Staedtler makes a special pencil sharpener for their mechanical pencils which is awesome! You can find both products on Amazon, your local art store, and some office supply stores.

  1. I did this along with you and I’m quite pleased with the results. My Faber-Castell 2B Pencil didn’t seem as dark as yours so I switched to my mechanical pencil. Although it’s 2B it has a narrow lead.

  2. I very much enjoyed following along with you on this drawing. I did fairly well drawing the trees in the background. However, after that there is a departure of my drawing resembling yours. I suppose the rocks and water are beyond my skill level. I have drawn it twice and did improve significantly. Hopefully when I draw it again I will see yet another improvement. I am so happy to have found your instruction. I have been looking for this type instruction since I started drawing about 10 month ago. You sir are a great teacher.

  3. What a wonderful lesson! The three things I’ve always wanted to be able to draw but couldn’t – trees, rocks and water. I am thrilled with the result. Drawing water was the most difficult challenge!

  4. Hi Matt,
    Definitely, I’ll give it a try;). But I’d like to ask about the paper here where I live there is canson xl recycled. Do you think this paper could be suitable for this project and the other ones too?
    Great course
