Whats that u used for the shading? and the coloring?

Prismacolor Art Stix

[1966brian]

The Prismacolor Art Stix are known as "woodless colored pencils". So they use wax as a binder for the color and do not smear like pastels.

Sean has been drawing caricatures in Seoul, South Korea for the past 3.5 months. Many of his new drawings are posted on his Facebook page.

what kind of paper is he using?

[1966brian]

On the NCN forum here is Sean's response.

The Brand is: International Paper

and the type is: Accent Opaque Digital Smooth

"It comes in several sizes and weights, but I (Sean) prefer 12"x18" and a 60lb weight. It's slick enough to allow your markers to glide across without drying them out and still has enough tooth to take Art Stix. It is however thin enough to allow your marker to bleed through, but if you have at least one bleed sheet underneath, it will work wonders."

I posted another "video" of photos I took of Sean drawing another caricature. The title of it is "Sean Gardner draws a caricature of Mike".

@1966brian how much a person charge for this work?

[TheSubwaysurfer]

@kkolorosa Sean could you toilet paper freshly used and still churn out awesome caricatures. Currently one of the best artist walking the planet.
