@darko1295 6 лет назад

If you're interested in learning to draw, it's a very good idea to start off with some very basic fundamentals. Having a more well rounded understanding of form, shape, values, texture etc will help tremendously when practicing along drawing tutorials such as this one. Doing some simple exercises with more simplified objects will also give your hand some confidence. Making smoother, quicker and more confident marks is the key to making a more convincing drawing

You are really a great teacher , your talent is as a teacher too, never I heard an explanation to draw a tree that make me able to draw the tree with leaves, but by your explanation then made me able to draw the tree with clumps of leaves! I am very lucky to find a teacher like you! Thank you very much. I am going to buy again another lessons from you soon!

Tremendously good tutorial, professionally made and narrated. The idea of breaking up the main tree form into smaller forms, so as to inform the shading and shaping, was a real "lightbulb moment" for me - why did I never think of that?!

Even if I tell the reason she wants me to hand over an excuse letter signed by my parents. And if I dont she will leave me standing there. And bruh when I get low scores she asks me to stand up and ask why with an intimidating pressure and lots of other stuff. And if that doesnt look evil, ima tell you that she only do that to ME AND NO OTHER. AND I WAS STILL GRADE 3 BACK THEN.
