Nhlaka da Artist

Hello my friend.

My name is Nhlakanipho, a self-taught sketch artist specializing in Hyper-realistic artwork. My main medium is Graphite and sketch paper.
I like to share my art techniques with all of you by making Drawing Tutorials and How to Draw videos! I like to capture my translation of and object from live to stills. On this channel I share most of my drawing progress, drawing tutorials and tips for anyone who wants to learn and to improve their drawing skills. I hope my videos will be of great benefit to you. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

I am also available on my social media platforms. Please see links below.

Thank you for all of your support!
