I wish people understood that to do art you’re gonna have to go through a phase of not even liking what you draw. It might look wonky for a bit but the more you practice the more you improve.
@neeevirus10 ай бұрын
I think what people dont know is that all artists had to overcome that one starting phase. I'm sure every artist has experienced that feeling of "I dont know how I'm supposed to draw this even if I tried!" It's one of the hurdles that all artists eventually overcome just from practicing and studying which makes them slowly understand the theories and fundamentals in an intuitive sense

@mndlessdrwer10 ай бұрын
Some people start off with a better ship, this is called talent, but they still must make the same journey as everyone else. Don't be discouraged if they reach their destination sooner than you, because your own efforts will still get you there eventually. And understand that the journey never ends, you simply realize that what you thought was your destination was merely one port of call and there are limitless ports to journey toward, some of which are more suitable for you than others. Honestly, a good metaphor if it can be stretched that far without breaking.

I've been looking at getting into doing some figure drawings for awhile, but they've always seemed "out of reach" or "above my head-" always inaccessible in some way. But this really does make it look like it's something that I could do, or that I could at least try, alongside you. Thank you for making art more accessible for all of us.
@mndlessdrwer10 ай бұрын
The most important thing to learn with figure drawing is to not get bogged down with details. They are not what you're here for. My art professor in college killed this notion for many people by starting us off with one minute figure drawing practice before cutting that all the way down to 15 second sessions. We'd do three to five in a go before we moved on to something else. It was a warmup for the students but also a way to break people of the habit of spiraling endlessly in circles trying to capture details instead of major shapes and forms. Details can be captured later or simply made up from memory if needed, but the form and pose must be captured faithfully to properly convey the feeling. When you remove enough time from each drawing then you must learn to intuit how to convey the form to the paper in the shortest amount of time. It took me a few sessions before I gave up trying to use a pencil or even the sharp corners of a piece of conte crayon or charcoal and instead went to the side or a sharpened edge of the media to lay down broad strokes just to fill in volume and capture the shapes in a broad fashion. Just be prepared to be disappointed in these sketches. They are not going to look impressive or be particularly inspiring, but they will help you.

@AlgyPond10 ай бұрын
yes yes yes! My high school art teacher at the beginning of class every day would have a volunteer come up and sit in the middle of the room (desks were placed in an "o" shape so that reference could be placed in the middle of the room) we all got a charcoal stick and would have 1 minute to draw the gesture, and then 5 minutes to refine the forms. Most of our projects weren't figure drawing related, but he always had us practice drawing from a live model. I think that's probably the MOST valuable thing he ever taught me... aside from color theory that is.

It’s not much, but I’m pretty happy with how it came out, so that’s good enough for me.

Anyone who is still in college for art now I absolutely recommend taking a live model class. Learning proportion and how to break down a person into shapes was a life saver. Though my humans are starting to lack again because I get lazy- that time had some of my favorite pieces made. Even my 5 minute sketches were pretty great by the end. If I could find/take the time to have another live model class I would for the refresher. But for now, 1 minute sketches should do!

I also pointed out that he might want to consider how he achieved certain things and he is slowly realising, that repeating it each day is what got him there... also the same what I tell my two "homework students" don't go for hours a day, little parts and then every day one of them is doing it by now and making good progress with understanding and pronouncing the language so thank you for sharing ❤️

When I started drawing as a kid quick sketches helped me out with getting my drawings to look balanced and proportioned properly-with lots of practice and redone drawings. (Many a drawing got tossed in the trashcan due to not coming out right/couldn't be fixed, like nothing looked right now matter what I did.) I'm in my mid forties and still draw/paint when the mood hits me. Sometimes I have to walk away for awhile then come back to it to view from a different angle. Also at my age and the experience I have with drawing sometimes I have to scrap something and start from square one. Also being a lefty has it's own challenges but nothing I haven't overcome so far.
