I want you to learn to love drawing and to love learning how to draw. Become a patron and let me teach you everything I know: www.adadwhodraws.com Hi! I’m Kurt Aspland and I have been drawing, painting, and teaching for over 30 years. I have taught at Drexel University in Philadelphia and the Pennsylvania School of Art and Design. Teaching is near to my heart as an artist and an educator. It is my inspiration for creating this RU-vid channel to encourage anyone, at any level, to draw.
I want you to learn to love drawing and to love learning how to draw. Draw with me in live daily secessions as we learn to overcome the envy, frustration and difficultly associated with art. My daily lessons are designed with the beginner, intermediate, and advanced student in mind. Draw everyday and engage with others, and I promise you will get better!
Drawing and imagination are two aspects of creativity that may not be aligned in all who "draw"... Even still life artists, painters are copying what they see and interpreting and expressing that in their own way. No different than emulating others. First thing to expand beyond yourself is to educate yourself in all artistic arenas that call you. Admiration and inspiration is in the emulation (copying) to learn and grow with your own twists and essence! 🎨 ❤
Great video Dad I would to see if you could do Fun with a pencil pg 41 I think you start off with slicing the ball in elipes and shape the heads so I'm wondering if you can do exactly like loomis pg 41 😊
Something that has helped me lately is sharing the process and final result on my Instagram stories. That way I can check my progress in time, but also losing the fear and shame of someone seeing my drawing. I know they aren't the best, but now I also know they are better than before, and they are my current progress for future better drawings. Thank you for your videos!
All the great masters used reference, some even traced using a camera obscura. Copying great artists can allow you to learn about the process and technique used because you have to problem solve to get the same effects they did. This helps you to develop your own visual language. Observation is the foundation of drawing and art, and allows you to build an understanding of the world around you and you can use that to create things from your imagination. I am all for reference and drawing from observation to improve - having taught art for over a decade students that practice these things really improve more so than those that don't.
It's not cheating, if you create a drawing from a life person or nature or an image is the same thing you're still creating your own version/ interpretation of what you observe. There are many types of art creating content from imagination is just one.
