Once again, love the critique and learned things from this video. I observed most of the lighting errors but you pointed out stuff on top of the head that I had not seen. Great job!
Another person commented about how someone could draw this beautiful dog and not see some of these errors. I can say from my own experience, and rix mentioned it in the video, sometimes your just to close to your work to see it... I have starred at reference photos for hours drawing and I think I eyes are bugging out. It does help to step away and come back after a break. Look at it from further away or in my case my twin brother is also talented with the pencil and I have him critique it.
Keep up the greatness rix!
i think the drawing was better as it was it looks more natural the hair looks smoother and it gives the feeling of movement
We're going for realism though, not the drawing look. :-)
I think we’d get along just dandy 😎 (OR, we’d kill each other 😂🤣😂)
I’m a born “editor” and had great fun spotting all the differences. I would have done it without the prompt to do so 🤓🤪
The artist did a great job on the dog. As i was watching i was thinking how could they be so talented but not see the shadow difference in the photo ? Possibly they used artistic license to lighten up the grassed area etc. I think it looks much more realistic after Rix has darkened areas 😊😊
Yes, definitely artistic license which is perfectly fine. However, as it was uploaded onto my group that focuses on realism, the artistic license did not meet the realism criteria.
dog drawing more tapred then smooth but nice drawing
Any advice for someone who was talented and active with art during school years then lost their motor skills until a new medicine came out at 35 and just restarted graphite work ?
Dealing with motor skills is a tad outside my expertise. I really don't know how to respond. My advice is the same to everyone no matter their personal circumstances. You have prior experience which is more than most. Just take it one step at a time.
@@RixCanDoit I just feel a little left behind since I lost a good 15 years progress or opportunity but I’ll keep practicing and just pray for more solid opportunities to come by me again.
@@Nyssieelise You shouldn't feel left behind or having lost years. Consider that I didn't start until 55 years old! All those years that I could have been doing this. But I'm doing it now, and that is what counts. It took me just a few months from zero to my current level, so if RixCanDoIt, you can too! Stay positive.
@@RixCanDoit it’s just frustrating sometimes to be 35 without a career because I was too unwell to do University or have a family etc so I still live at home and focus on medicines and my cat, my dog and my art now… I’m enjoying every second of the artwork but I’m always afraid I’ll lose it again, I have ocd and obsessions form with activities being perfected so art is always challenging me and so I just wish I hadn’t missed out on the ivy scholarships I got or the internships I was awarded at 17 for excellence in life drawing etc for Nickelodeon snd Disney Pixar etc now the chances of turning art into a career are lesser but I’ll find a way, I want it enough that something will stick and work :) thanks for the encouragement too!
It was beautiful and portrait to start with but your adjustments made all the difference. wow! I learned a lot! thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
I believe this technique of creating more contrast with darker darks and lighter lights is also called chiaroscuro
Close, but not quite. Chiaroscuro would also include the shading be on the light side as well to give a sense of volume or more of a 3-d effect. It's a deliberate effect unlike that of a natural lighting situation such as the photo used here, where I'm only emphasizing making the shadows that naturally exist be as dark as the original.
