"The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson || Narration and Speeddrawing (in Charcoal!)

Q: Why is your art so bad? A: I’m working on it! You can follow my art progress on my channel or just enjoy the stories 😊 Q: Why did you choose to read “The Lottery”? A: When I was reading it in school, I thought about how I really wanted to read this story and spread it to a larger audience. I like how it points out how pointlessly following traditions just because they’re traditional can have dangerous consequences and how it really has a universal lesson that we can all learn from in our personal lives, the workplace, or even public policy. Q: Why did you use charcoal? A: Because I’m scared of making mistakes and you can erase charcoal for days (as I do in this video). Plus, black and white is perfect for ~creepy~ vibes. Q: What's that thing you used to blend out the charcoal? A: It's called a tortillon and it's a wrapped piece of paper with a pointy end. I've never used one before and I think the results were pretty nice. Q: Why do you keep turning your drawing around? A: Comparing the drawing to the reference picture at different angles makes it easier to see mistakes in the construction of the subject. Q: How long did this drawing take you? A: Three hours and 38 minutes. Q: Can I critique any part of your video? A: Yes, everything is open to constructive criticism! Q: How do I let you know that I read your long ass Q & A? A: Hmm...Why don't you comment "graphic design is my passion" and I'll know ;) Q: What if I have more questions? A: Leave it in the comments! Thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful day!
