thank you for that, will look them up

Absolutely, we are not machines, learn your craft but be your own creative self

@@careyalvezartschool Carey, I apologize and I will cote him correctly: ""Your Job is not likeness, your job is to make the most dynamite interpretation of the architecture possible - the best design possible." And the list of his cotes in this scenario goes on - and they just get better and better:

"Your Job is not mimicry, your job is to idealize!" The next one is longer but yet, nice: "When you are constructing, having some sort of idea about how to idealize, gives you a lot of amo, from when you are drawing from the model, I mean, I don´t wanna completly "hide" the model, but I do wanna - if I wanna lean in the direction of what is pretier, what´s a better choice, so, have a direction, otherwise all you hope to do it´s copy really well, and copy really well that´s not fun. You wanna be abble to look her and say: " ok, I like this part and this other part is a little funky, how ca I... You know? And if you are drawing and you are not quite sure if the line goes to the left or right, You know? You kind have to think about what´s gonna be a better mistake."

your welcome. I love Rembrandt🥰

thank you, hope it helps

so true, really what is the point of just copying, unless its a skill building exercise, personal expression trumps mechanical perfection

@@careyalvezartschool I have been told I am a mood painter. Painting is very much a form of expression for me. Many people also fail to recognise limitations of photography (hence massive use of AI these days). So trying to copy a photo exactly is also trying to be restricted to those same limitations.

Well thank you, I'm not a landscape painter, never really knew where it originated from. I learned it in the atelier I was studying at.

Thank you I appreciate the feedback, I hope these tutorials help

Glad this helped, ironically the key to accuracy is to "detach from the thing" and see things objectively, after practicing this it becomes second nature and you can just flip in and out of it.

Thank you very much for that feedback, I really appreciate it. The photo series was a LOT of work , I hope people see the value as well.

If it’s painted on one side, how does that make it useful?

@@janetlyn523 it’s like a black mirror, then

I'm Glad it helped. Most people don't know the foundational structure that goes into creating a successful realistic drawing, Everyone wants to go to the finishing details FIRST. This it the way to do it, layer upon layer. Check out this video to see it more in depth: ruclips.net/video/MRvXku_PNro/видео.htmlsi=vRArLKQqddYgsrps best of luck

thank you, and hope these videos help

fantastic, I prefer the tension that is created by the "tight - loose" balance.

Great, It helped me a lot too and I had been drawing a long time before i found someone to teach me this, made a big difference. hope it helps you.

Thanks for that feedback, Appreciate it!

You're welcome. I remember being taught this and it was areal revelation and made such a difference in my work.

No Problem, thanks for the feedback. What sort of art are you interested in?

@@careyalvezartschool many genres portraits historical contemporary abstract with different mediums acrylic, watercolor and OIL.

@@MKisJ Personally I enjoy doing master copies, they are the best way to learn. check out ruclips.net/video/_aN7dyHK4qk/видео.html

Skills are learned, I've seen this many times. The key to success is commitment, It's been said you become what you focus on. I You want it, you can do it. you don't have to do the journey alone... check this out careyalvezart.com/mentoring

I'll work on that, thanks for asking. But quickly simply massing in the hair as a value shape and then picking out or erasing the highlights sure beats drawing in every little detail and strand of hair go to this video for a short demo: ruclips.net/video/-a5gSC3tLsE/видео.html

Thanks, appreciate the feedback!

It removes a lot of frustration, best of luck using it

thank you, hope this helps, the window technique is really easy and gets the best results

This has really worked for me, it will save your sanity and just know the tweaking and correcting process continues through the duration of the entire work. The secret, work with a light touch so your work can be gently lifted and reworked as necessary. i will do another video that goes deeper into this issue, Best of luck

@@careyalvezartschool Thank you. This really helps me to understand what I should expect. Sometimes I have to remind myself I’m supposed to be enjoying this. 🤣❤️😬

Stonehenge legion or printmaking paper. Terrific drawing paper

thanks, I remember learning about this and being really grateful for the difference it made in my own drawing.

your welcome. hope it helps

Thank you for your kind words, they mean a lot to me!

your welcome, hope it helps

So true, You will notice this all came about during a prolonged period of real stress. It was a healthy coping mechanism but it helping work through many challenges with my art from that point forward. Thanks for your thoughts!

you are welcome!

I hope this is something you can apply. It helped me and gave me a safe place to go, just to get lost in my art. Also to draw what was going on inside me. This is pretty common. but it does help. Take care

Absolutely, I have often said, "Art is a journey of the mind" your vision & mindset is super important!

Fantastic Raven!. I was filming all day for a Master copy course I am offering and YES I too was using my black mirror quite a bit as accuracy is very important in this case. Great little tool. Please stay tuned, I am recommitting to my RUclips channel so there will be regular new tutorials available. Best of luck with your art journey!

@@careyalvezartschool, thank you! I will ☺check out your courses. :)

Hi Raven, Yes just regular electrical tape. You don't want to break the border with masking tape or another colour.

@@careyalvezartschool, thank you and thank you for this tutorial! I use regular mirror holding it facing my canvas, using the mirror like a review mirror in the car. I will be making one. ☺

best of luck

@@careyalvezartschool, I will give you and update, once I make it and use it, thank you! :)

Hey Raven, just double checked, sorry but the tape is 3/4 inch, my mistake. hope this helps

Thank you Dan, appreciate that feedback. Will change that in the future!

Thank you I really appreciate you comment

thank you really appreciate that

Hi Emad, You work with a set of AXIS lines that cross each other and create a fixed point in the centre of the image. From there you make all of your measurements. Watch this video to see haw its done at the 1min mark ruclips.net/video/31HjlBuT-fs/видео.html Hope this helps
