Props to this dude for actually getting to the point at the start of the video. Every tutorial I have seen on how to draw has people talking for a billion years before they get to the point of the video. And even when they get to the point, they talk and talk without explaining it in a way that I can understand. Seriously, how hard is it to teach people how to draw??

Is it normal if we can't draw strokes from all angles/directions (example: I can draw straight line from left to right, but not right to left), like it's okay to turn the page around?

@RuinedTemple 2 жыл бұрын

Absolutely normal. If you're ok with having that limitation, simply move you paper around. Sometimes, even some pro artists do this. Just be careful not to smudge your work with your hand. However, if you'd like to be able to improve with your art or design (unless you have a disability or another reason that truly prevents you) & not be limited with what you can create because the skill required to create it isn't strong enough, then you're most advantageous option would be to practice drawing line strokes from the angles & directions that are challenging for you. Perhaps even do twice (or more!) as many or do it twice as often so that your ability becomes consistent from any direction or angle even sooner. Do this whenever you realize a weakness or lack of skill: Do exactly what feels difficult, work on a new skill, or refine a rusty one, & do it as often as you can until you improve or just have to move onto something else (but go back to it eventually).
