Montmartre artists demonstrate the importance of the use of facial expression in the search for likeness AND personality in a portrait..Various techniques are employed ,sanguine,sepia,estompe in this'In your face' HD video tutorial
Ten years later and I'm still so moved by this compilation of drawings. Every single artist featured here "brought it." As for the Old masters remark, Davy, I believe you are quite correct. There are phenomenal artists out there living today, but the likes of DaVinci, Velazquez, John Singer Sargeant etc are in their own league.
Thank you for your comment Spencer,glad you still enjoy watching these artists at work.They are all still alive and continue to draw portraits at Montmartre though Covid 19 has seriously disrupted us all this year.Stay safe.
Love that narrator's voice
It's so soothing and motivating!
Agreed...

Inspiring... I got a little emotional watching the video. Thank you for sharing it, it's changed my day.
I really liked this tutorial, and agree with his opinions.
I'm studying head drawing right now at the graduate level. This was a great help.
отлично !!! прекрасно показано, что чем старше человек , тем проще его рисовать. как сейчас помню , как в детстве рисовал портрет своей ПРАбабушки.
the artist who understands volume is the best. has the most knowledge with light and shade.
It is awesome . I like the artist, narrators voice and background music
Thank you Sangram!
Samuel's drawing is an amazing piece of art!
The speed and quality of work are very impressive.
Agree. Therefore, why sit in the street, and charge 20 Euros for a portrait, if you can apply the same effort in a comfortable studio, and charge a few hundred Euros? It all boils down to online marketing. There are plenty of people who would be willing to pay a decent price for good quality draftsmanship.
I could watch this video for hours! Beautiful people, beautiful drawings---everyone has a face interesting enough to draw!
I love this, and I love being an artist. Would love to be on the same skill level as these incredibly talented people :)
Amigo é só praticar. É uma questão de tempo e prática.
Davy good artist and good portrait and good pencil work good luck
Fantastic Davy, Thank you for taking the time to make these wonderful videos. This really captures the essence of 'Place du Terter'. Brilliant video and editing.
wow! they are all stunning! I'd love to have my portrait drawn by someone of your skill! AND, I'd love to be able to draw that well! Thanks for this upload! It was great!
I love listening to your kind advices
Beautiful video ! Great portraitists !
the first portrait was simply amazing,,so powerful .. thank you,,=D
Nice, both the works of the artists and also the comments are very interesting, for example the comments about drawing a person who is smiling. Thanks a lot.

I am in shock.. Truly magnificent. Commentary was very informative BRAVO BRAVO!!

Davi, being a designer is first of all be illuminated. Pure divine gift. BRAVO!! It is in instances like yours that I'm perfecting this beautiful art portraits. I am Brazilian, South (Paraná). Hugs.
Love the idea of capturing different portraitists....well done. More to come?

Excellent movie. Live everything and superb music. Very original.
Thank you very much for this great tutorial. very helpfull ideas
Complete perfection :)
i am a portrait artist too your work is fantastic!
whoooaa..... such....deep..meaning. 😌
Davy, I think all of these artists are phenomenal, but would have to agree with your assessment of the first portrait. The artist doesn't try to minimize the sitter's lined, severe face- he has faithfully transferred reality to paper, a testament to his skill. I'll never tire of this video
The first portrait is drawn by Gaguik,one of my favourite artists at Montmartre.
Excelentes maestros
muito bom, voce é um grande artista parabens God bless
they are all amazig and those girls are so pretty also
Artistas geniales,capturan la imagen,con una sutileza increíble y el espíritu de sus gestos,nunca dejan de asombrarme,felicitaciones a estos artistas de lo espontáneo.

Very nice work sir
Love your work.
Thank you Jennie!
Sono tutti bravissimi e talentuosi
This video is the most moving and motivational of portraitist videos. It's inviting the viewer to fill their hand and share in the experience and excitement of what it is to be a portraitist. The best video i have seen yet with the mood of inviting the viewer in.
Robert Vega Thank you for such positive feedback!
+Davy Lim Hi Davy. I just discovered your Channel today. I just started doing painting at a late age in life. However, I know that drawing is the foundation of art. What I really want to know, after watching some of your videos of these artists at Montmartre and Place du Tertre, is what technique did they study or use in order to get the proportions and measurements correct in the placement of the eyes, nose and mouth? Or after years of practice they don't bother with any technique and just use their eye and intuition to get it to look right. Thanks.
Impressive!
I really like the technique and skill by Davy. For those familiar with "The artist complete guide to drawing the head" by William Maughan will recognise the chiaroscuro technique that Davy is the complete master of. I will be the first in line when Davy publish a book on his chiaroscuro technique. Bravo!
Great vid bro! The video invites you in as to say, 'come and see the other side though my eyes...'
Sir davy you are awesome
The work is so fluid and graceful with every tiny stroke. No Loomis method here!
This is a remarkable, inspirational video. Thank you.
Ray, thanks for the positive feedback
Wow. ❤❤❤❤❤
I always watch your videos I wish you make some more
Thank you! New video coming soon!
It's really good
Superb monsieur.

Hi Tia,my reply is yes to the 1st question (thank you)...and yes to the 2nd question..Go for it!
Very Nice, Very nice indeed.
unbelievable.
you are the best
3:43 this is a beautiful smile
I had to shut the sound down. Can’t seem to hear him over the piano. Piano music has a place but not when he’s saying something.
Amazingly talented!
its not just talent! its also hard work and dedication
+sshilev ...please dont bring mayweather here.
Amazing, I also do some drawings, thanks for sharing art
Wow they all are so talented, all portraits were amazing, I wish I was that skillful 😍😍😍 btw narrators voice was so soothing ❤❤❤
Natasha, thank you for the positive feedback!
Thx for sharing.
I love how the narrator is throwing out the most passive aggressive insults about the subjects.
i love the way it starts "in your face" lol
c´est formadible !
That's the way a portrait should be, a reality even if it is disturbing to the viewer. It's the capture of a moment in time, a person in pain, or disguise, that moment in time which will never repeat. That model will probably never be seen again, or no one will ever know why the expression. Happy, sad who knows, it will be for the future viewer of such portrait to think 🤔💬 why does this person look angry, or sad.
Well said, Rut
There are some talented ladies featured in my 'How to draw and paint portraits:techniques from 'la place du terte'...and,weather permitting,there will be more videos of all the artists before xmas.
Werry beautiful
What he meant by 'keeping it impressionistic'' is more liken 'to suggest'. Don't think to much when drawing, and let the shapes develop as though you are seeing the human form for the first time....
Great
very inspiring
It´s the most amazong things of the world!!! Draw is so beautiful
Davy, your videos are an inspiration! I've noticed many different sizes of paper being used at the Square. Are they typically either a full sheet of 19 x 25 Canson and/or a half sheet? Or are you using a completely different size?
Davy, I am a HUGE fan of you. You enspire me a lot. Love your style of drawing, its beautiful. I am a portrait artist myself. Hope You share more of your work in the future. Wishing you the best, Aart
Thank you for your kind words.I hope to upload more vids this year..but right now my wife and I are enjoying a long overdue holiday.Cheers,Aart...good name for an artist!
Your Welcome Davy, enjoy your holiday with your wife!
way talented
@archangelmike07 I (Davy)am using canson(cachou colour,smooth side).Gaguik and Samuel both use a creamy Ingres paper,with its distinctive linear grain.Toan,Ajar and Farchad usually work on the smoother side of grey canson paper.Canson has a grainier side whith more 'tooth'which is handy for colour work with pastel sticks.
Thank you so much sir...
Wspanialy rysunek i swietna technika
Tres jolie 5 / 5 😮
رائع ♥
@mcalli756 Thank you for your comment.Yes many more..but the next video puts the spotlight on one of montmartre's most respected painters:"Jaquin"
Muy bueno
If you don’t…then… 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
what paper are you using (brand and grain). Thanks for the video.
