For those that still want to see my painting exhibition ‘Underground’ you can still check it out until September 30th. It’s free and open to the public. The gallery is open on Tues - Sat from 10am-6pm @ 507 west 27th st, in New York City.
She was visibly shocked how great the drawing came out and didn’t expect it to be that amazing.
Oh man I hope this becomes a regular series. I will watch every episode.
I 1000% agree
So would I. This is wonderful!!
Melted her heart and she wasn't ready...🤍 So beautiful Devon... Never stop making a difference muchacho, you're a Saint 💛
I love it she constantly talks about providing and caring for her mother. I don’t really see or hear much the young in America saying and doing that for their elderly parents. Bless her. And thank you to you Sir for putting smile on everyone everywhere you go.
That is what I noticed too 🙏pray for this young girl
❤😊
So true
She had no words 😶 after seeing what Devon blessed her with his talent. We need to see more interview style drawings with random peeps!!!
That is like a photograph 😲 in fact I think there's more detail in your drawing than any photograph. Simply the best drawing I've ever seen in my 50 years on earth. Sublime.
Agreed 😊
You’ve never seen old master drawing / paintings then, or many other contemporary artists for that matter.
@@matthewwilliams3827 irrespective of what you think we haven't seen we felt the drawing was comparable with a photograph, and we admire and appreciate this artist a great deal. Have a good week.
It's so much like a photograph it's almost as if it IS a photograph! The perspective is identical to a phone camera, truly impressive he uses no guiding lines.
@@ty88 I love his work and the pleasure he gives
Your the best artist I seen all my life God bless you 🙏🏽
Devon is an absolute true artist
Indeed. Drawing facial features of that high caliber in 8 minutes is wild. Most people could get close to that level of realism if they had 8 days to complete the drawing.
And he seems like a truly nice guy.
Devon also had one very natural beauty to portrait, quite stunning
@@jhoncena1111..
And such a nice guy
Dude you're insane with your drawings! The detail is out of this world. I reckon you need to allow a little more time for people to express their gratitude to you. They take time to look at what you've done, process it and then express their feelings. Don't rush it mate. That's the best part of the experience IMO When you're dealing with something as cool as this it does take time for people to process it and I'm sure they'd love to show you their gratitude and your fans want to see it to. You rock!
Want more such drawing interviews 🥳
That was such a beautiful portrait!! She was sweet! As a 57 yr old, you both make me feel hopeful for the future of young people! Such kind, intelligent people.
How could he concentrate in drawing so beautifully and keep a good conversation in the same time uninterrupted, its amazing.
I don't know if you've ever defined it as such, but make no mistake about it, you have a ministry. You go around spreading light in a sometimes dark world. You obviously have an incredible gift. Watching the reactions remind me that there are still good people in this world. Thank you for sharing your gift, and thank you for the reminder. God bless you!! (He already has, but still...)
❤
I love to see the reaction on every person you draw because you leave them with a smile.. This young lady just wants to be happy and meets you. She shared her story and you gifted her a portrait. What an awesome gift you have . God bless you always.
What a beautiful woman and the sketch brings that across perfectly. What a talent
Nice seeing you introducing yourself and talking with who you are drawing.
I cant believe that this upcoming art show is going to be your 1st. Your so talented, I thought you would of shown your work in an exhibition long before now. Hope it goes really well for you. Your an amazing talent and the future is bright for you. 🇬🇧👍
Hey Devon, this was an excellent idea. Two things at a time. Interviewing and drawing, quite a combination but it came out pretty good. It was so real and down to the earth and then you were able to kind of like you said describing her life with your drawing... Amazing... way to go buddy
Liking and commenting so the lady can get her break. Bless your souls the two of you! 🙏🙌
Devon, you absolutely lot a fuse under her. You inspired her with your interpretation of her person. You are a genuine artist! ❤
Devon is such a young and an amazing artist.good personality and quite articulate.he knows how to interact with others where people easily grasp his good vibes and great energy..cheers Devon....
Devon, you’re amazing! The drawings, the humility and the good-nature that shows in your personality with everyone you meet. Success personified. And Fiona was a great model with good conversation.
That was really nice - the drawing, the conversation, all of it. I hope your exhibition opening went well, and it's another step up for you.
What an amazing, lovely girl. Good luck to her. The artwork is incredible, your talent always leaves me slackjawed! Combined with your good heart & your authenticity, it makes me want to stand and applaud you. 👏 👏
The stories of the lives of everyday people are so rarely told and so often forgotten by time. Everyone has a story, their story, and I feel like this long-form interview (with a twist) format could really be something wondrous. I hope you continue.
Здравствуйте Девон. Это новый и очень интересный формат ваших видео. Это мвоего рода мини-интервью у простых людей. Мы видим не просто рисунок человека, но и узнаем немного о нём самом и о его жизни!!!! МОЁ ПОЧТЕНИЕ!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Exquisite drawing and the conversation just flowed so freely. A good connection.
Such a lovely interaction!! I enjoy this format of you spending time talking with the people you draw, Devon. Two truly beautiful people in this video!! 🙂
😊🎉❤
Lo que haces es espectacular amigo no solo tú talento sino por la alegría que le das a las personas 👌sal2 desde Spain Sevilla
This format is super unique! It's all you, Devon; and I can't wait to see the next one. Well done, man! Keep it real and flowing. You've tapped into a charge of life here, adding the interview of the subject. I'm a fan, man! Davi
Hope you do more of these. Knowing a bit more of your subject gives even more life to your drawing.
She’s a beautiful human being.
Bro, you're literally a therapist, a philosopher, and an artist all wrapped into one. Much respect, bro. 🙏🏽
A good conversation between two artists while drawing the interviewee... I like that! More of this, please. Thank you.
Love these videos. You are so talented. The shorts do not bring out the people who you are drawing, this is so refreshing to hear people and their stories. Hopefully, they can have a voice or a chance at their dream through your platform.
Devon, you are an incredibly talented artist, and a beautiful soul. I hope that you are celebrated, appreciated, and rewarded, in every way.
this is absolutely amazing! She was so blown away by your work, I dont think she could properly convey how much she loved it! Quick tip for the cinematographer: It seems the camera facing her was in wide AutoFocus mode, which is why it was struggling to keep her in focus (common issue when background is brighter than the subject). Kindly ask your cinematographer to use eye detect (or face detect) focus mode to avoid camera hunting for the subject. If that doesnt work, turn on the focus peeking mode and adjust the focus manually. As always, keep up the great work! Kudos my friend!
Dude! You just found your niche!!!! Your interview influenced your interpretation of her in your sketch. Absolutely amazing sir!
Amazing artist. I love your interview with the beautiful young lady I perceived as very grounded. Wish you the best with your art show; you deserve it, man.
I like this new approach to sketching people. Engaging conversation opens up new chapters about both the subject & Devon.
She’s very pretty, your art work makes her look even more beautiful. Great job!
Devon brings a lot of happiness to the world. That is an art that should never be underestimated.
That was hard to do, asking questions, processing her reply, doing a follow-up while sketching! Whooo! You're great indeed, Devon Rodriguez!🥰💖💕
I really enjoy your videos and your artwork. The joy you bring to so many people with your talent is fantastic.
Hey Devon, I am no art expert or anything, but I believe that you are an artist through and through.
I'm loving these interviews! And of course your artwork is always fantastic! ❤ I hope all is going well with the art show! 🎨🖼😊
Девон, ты волшебник!) Благодарю за позитив!😊🎉
Maybe even more than your artistic talent, I admire your willingness to just interact with people. I'm the opposite way; I prefer to be alone at all times. But I recognize the value in getting to know a stranger even a little bit, and I think people respond to your genuine attempts to connect. I'll continue to live vicariously through your videos!
I can relate to your comment but being alone at 67 is wearing thin 😐
This so cool, that you point the spotlight on a stranger and let them tell their story! I’m so loving that!❤
Amazing Talent Devon, I enjoy watching all your videos. You putting a smile on people's faces is priceless. God Bless U!
Devon ... your work is amazing. I actually would love to talk to you about doing a sketch of a wonderful friend, who lost her battle with cancer. Due to long health battles she didn't like having her photo taken. Her sister misses her terribly and now faces her own health battle. Bottom line if I can afford it I would like to commission a sketch from a photo and gift that to her sister. I will also try to find an email or other contact. Truly inspiring work and I know it would mean so much to her sister. P.S.: if it was not for my friend who recently passed I would have died in 2019 or 2020 ... she saved my life when I had no where to go. By all rights she should still me here.
I was sitting here happily listening and slightly concerned that the drawing wasn't evolving as I expected. Latter stages wow, WOW!! And yes dammit I shed a tear when she saw his work 😢❤
This woman has it all and Devon captured every bit of it.
I really like this young woman. And also her name is beautifull. May all good people succeed. ... Love from Pakistan.
I like this…getting to know the people…relaxed atmosphere…you’re a good person my friend…
You are an amazing artist. You have a beautiful soul. You touch a persons heart with your art and your conversations.
Unbelievable talent and such a great person. Thank you Devon, for making the world better. Seriously. Thank you! ;-)
Devon is incredibly an amazing artist who can draw real life models regardless of the places/venues whether it is in a subway train or in a park. I'm a very proud fan of yours Devon. Good luck 🍀 and God bless you more 🙏
Devon, you’re a down to earth good man! The world needs more of you in it! Great things are coming your way sir!
Wow! I really am amazed by artists like you that can truly bring his portraits to life
You make people days Devan .I'm so proud of you good work ..🙏👍
I chanced upon your site and you're an amazing artist. I especially like this one not only because of the beautiful b&w artwork but the conversation between the two of you. This IS truly reminiscence of old times true conversation instead of looking into the phones. Of course, not everyone are like that. Bless the lovely lady and you, too.#devon💙🕊
Devon you are truly amazing! The love and joy you bring to people's lives with your talent is so great! May you be blessed in abundance in all ways!
