Morning sketch... moring- This is this person's morning sketch and yet if I were to draw something this beautiful it would be the project of my lifetime.
Yeah, hate it when people refer to a fully finished beautiful drawing as a 'sketch'. This is just how language changes over time so now sketch just means 'black and white drawing' even if its a highly finished peice of art.
As a beginner at drawing I realize if a person can’t see shape he can’t draw. ✍️ So I have to train myself to look around me and visualize what kind of shape makes up the object. After doing so my art took a great leap not the best out there but to me it’s the biggest progress.
A good exercise for that is watching a subject and trying to draw it with a single line as if you were using an etch-a-sketch, but without looking at the page, the drawing will look bad but it's very good at training observation.
Isn't that like the most essential concept in sketching? I started not too long ago in order for me to create characters to my game. (I want to build everything from scratch) Every tutorial and book I have encountered always instructs to, "simplify things into lines and shapes." Most of them encourage to practice drawing 2D/3dDshapes and draw it rotated in a different angle. I think it practices the artist spatial sense and think of things in terms of 3D. Because of this, studies say artist brain has a different structure.
@@blackwater7183 It is very important, the main goal of the exercise I described is to see the shapes how they really are and not how you imagine them as it is often a problem for beginner artist, by looking away from the page and focusing on the subject you get to observe its shapes and lines without the pressure of trying to make a good looking sketch and ultimately straying from the subject to draw something that you are already familiar with. Another key if you want to progress fast is simply to sketch a lot and take notes about your sketches. No matter the skill level there will always be something that you would like to change on every drawing, taking notes about what you like/dislike or would change about the drawing helps eliminating bad habits.
@@vraolet Yes, my first sketching book talked about that. Tracing the outline of your subject with your eyes like laser and putting it in paper. The books that I got after that were more geared towards drawing figures from imagination because I want to create stylized/fictional characters for my game. I have noticed vetaran artist here in youtube can draw really crisp lines and shapes. Even when one guy I follow drew a circle, it looked so perfect. Their fine motor skills are very honed. I on the other hand struggle to draw the most basic shapes. Lol.
Sure wish there were more abundant real time video like this. It's gives a much greater perspective of the process and time for total beginners. It's also quite relaxing. Great stuff!
It’s really incredible seeing what experienced folks can do in their area of expertise. So, every time I think I’m becoming decent at sketching, I’ll come across something like this and I’m instantly humbled.
these videos never fail to make drawing look fun and easy. i’m definitely going to draw later, and use some of these methods. especially the way you use the blending tool. it gives so much depth.
he must fanboy yourself all the time! great talent and depth of detail. i didn't know that there were sketching covers that you could get to put on top of the screen like that, cool!
Man, i try and i can see that my realistic that i struggles for a while can see a progress. But its still need some time to work thing out. Love your work! It so good!❤
Pencil maniac. Start with pencil from HB to B, eraser and shading paper. Maybe a reference or maybe not. Digital art or not it is the same. The hardest part is when you try it with color.
