Reference and study movie scenes instead. You get lighting, composition, expressions in one still image.

@tessa6307 4 года назад

Totally agree with the fact that these references are boring to DRAW. But... I’ve found that they’re great painting references. They have been useful for me in learning how to mix my colors and paint skin tones. The lighting is always good, the hair and make up colors can freshen up my palette, and there can be some fun design elements to try out. I don’t think I would ever post my studies of these models to Instagram, since I don’t want to go through the effort of giving image credit 😂

@faible3508 4 года назад

People are too obsessed with drawing pretty and boring stuff. Go out of your comfort zone. Draw old people with a lot of expression. Draw some guy with a half burned face, anything! Get out of your comfort zone. I get that it's natural for us humans to lean towards drawing pretty and sexy people but there's more out there that exists then just lame 0 expression Pinterest models. Not practicing drawing something like a 47 year old guy that's yelling and other expressive more humanized non edited examples can hold you back in the future.

I then followed your Pinterest boards and began drawing actual people and not just same-faced Pinterest girls, and I have never been happier. I have been able to fill pages after pages in my sketchbook with real looking people. And I thank you for that. I truly appreciate you and what you have done for me . Thank you

@jwuluvsyou 4 года назад

I just found your channel today, thanks for the tips! A while ago there was that 100 heads challenge going around, and I made it through about half the faces. I didn't put too much effort into each of them, but because there was a good variety (in terms of expression as well as age/texture) I felt like I improved drastically even with just that short amount of study. Definitely gonna implement some of your tips going forward!

@FourPartFox 3 года назад

Stock photographers are also a goldmine for references, SenshiStock is my favorite, and her website has a feature where you can set a timer and it'll change photos after that time, so you can get in a bunch of semi-random gesture drawings in at once!

@addstronomical 4 года назад

I found it really helpful to also draw older people too. They can be just as expressive. They can feel really sincere in a very inspiring way. The aging in a face can be really revealing when it comes to how the skin moves. It reveals a lot of shapes you may not ordinarily notice.

@sparksfly2752 3 года назад

@Jackalopefriday 4 года назад

I think it's the eyes, when you're genuinely expressing emotion your eyes get wider or more closed & when someone's making a face without emotion behind it (like for a hot girl Instagram picture) their eyes stay open a 'normal' amount or an amount that doesn't match the expression... (when you're a socially anxious person you tend to key into very minor changes in people's faces to read them)

@fatineaouiniya1041 4 года назад

The only thing I would add is that it can also help to know what you want to use a reference for. Expressiveness is a very good point but there are also many expressionless pictures on pinterest that might be interesting in other aspects like light & shadow, unique facial features etc. So I would say it's best to be mindful and aware of "why" you would choose a particular reference! :)

@Soratern 4 года назад

Most of the time I only search for references when I already know what I want to draw, like most of the time that I draw or drew is because I want to express an idea from my head so I just get a reference to solidify the ideia. If i start with the reference is mostly for training or lazyness.
