You're one I'd the best art instructors that I have ever seen. After watching some of your videos I've concluded that you are one of those rear people who actually enjoy teaching and have a knack for it. All of the art teachers I've had so far did not choose the right profession. I wish I could be one of your students. But, living in Torrence, I doubt that I my wonderful parents would let me take an art class an hour away.

This is the most mindless, useless trash I've seen. All that this person could possibly teach you is to be utterly mediocre. Most of you can be utterly mediocre all by yourselves; you don't require instruction to be that. The fact that these so-called art instructors can make money by scamming nieve, delusional fools who do not possess a trace of talent is absolutely disgusting. They know it's a scam, and yet, they all simply continue. It is cruel and dishonest, but they do not care.
@DoctorLawyerWhatever Hello Loved your message. These Videos are my way of saying thank you to a industry and Art community that I love. The information and process is 500 years old and is used in all the new programs, Maya, Z-Brush. Rubens traced Michelangelo and I was forced to trace as a student. And still do. Try it, It works. Follow the proven processes of classic drawing and enjoy the successes. Hope to hear from you again some time Regards Sheldon Borenstein

@sheldonsartacademy I am glad that you appreciated my commentary. I hope that it shall assist you in re-evaluation and clarification. Perpetuating mediocrity may provide an income, however, it is genuinely inappropriate. I work exclusively in the drawing medium. Photorealism, or Hyper-Realism. This is what my dealer calls it. I simply call it Realism.
@DoctorLawyerWhatever So; first off, it's naive not nieve. Second, you don't know what this guy's accomplished in terms of his impact on not only the art world but the entertainment industry as well. So while you're hating on him for sharing his talent, he's doing what he loves, and - as it turns out - is making you look like a giant douche in the process. Are you happy, giant douche? The most hilarious part is that you're only an utterly mediocre giant douche. Viva la douche! Oh and good video.
@DoctorLawyerWhatever I, for one, can tell you that my drawing skills increased a hundred, or even a thousand fold thanks to Sheldon's videos. Talent has nothing to do with it, I don't believe in talent. Anyone could learn to draw like a master if they study the right material hard enough and practice diligently.
@DoctorLawyerWhatever If your draftsmanship is as weak as your grammar, your 'art' is in serous trouble. Hyper-realist??? You've got nerve bitching about mediocrity. Buy a camera, you dimwit. Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Courbet, Daumier, et al mastered realism centuries ago. Too bad you didn't get the memo. Sheldon's one of the few competent instructors on youtube. BTW, where are your drawings? Oh, that's right, you don't have a webpage or a gallery link. You sound like an embittered failure
Wow... it's amazing how it comes to life! :) I'm only fifteen, and so not anywhere near what you'd call a progressed artist by any means, but these tutorials are always extremely helpful! Thank you!
Thank you Sheldon for uploading this video, they are truly beautiful drawings.

This was super helpful Sheldon, thank you! I've been practicing hands since returning from boot camp, so this was a good demo for me.
