This is the fireside chat we needed today! Thanks for sharing this. People new to art can gain some valuable insight from this video about how valuable it is to keep a sketchbook!
Love the no eyes who saids you need to have them ❤ your sketchbook is your learning path and discovery of style. Mine have no nose cause I can’t for some reason paint that part of the face lol
🖐️greetings Ana So great to hear from you again. Hope all is well with you and yours🤔 thank you for sharing your sketchbook journey with us😎 They clearly hold beautiful memories of your creative learning😀 learning how to sketch and paint by copying some of the great masters is part of the artistic journey, and we have all started out that way. I have sketches and even paintings on my lounge wall of my favourite landscape artist: "John Constable", which I tried to emulate many years ago now and quite successfully. Although now I have developed my own style. Over the years, I have wanted to learn to paint portraits and for me, getting the mouth right was always a problem. It takes persistence and practice as your sketchbooks demonstrate. Plus portraiture is one of the hardest genres to artistically achieve, especially if attempting to do so from life. I purchased a simple book on how to draw and paint faces and have found this very helpful over time. What I love about your sketchbooks is how you have achieved a tight rendition of your process as being able to sketch in such a small space and get it reasonably accurate in detail is quite something in itself. Love the glasses too. And also interesting to see you still have your feathery friends with you too. Thank you once again for sharing this information Ana. Loved every minute of this beautiful and calming video. 🌹💯🌞🖐️
Thank your for sharing with us your sketchbook! I love this kind of videos! Have to make that one as well, but sometimes it just feels too personal to share it online... big hug!
Yay! Great job getting the eyes into these two sketches! Perfect can be the enemy of greatness. Just put what you can into there and over time they'll get better.
@@AnaCornejoArt Re-reading my comment, I realize it came across really condescending. It sounds like I was telling you to do the thing, as if you hadn't heard that a million times before. I was trying to complement you on actually doing the thing, which is so very much harder in execution than in concept.
Oh, Dear. Ana! Long time no see! This time video is very cozy style, also helpfully content. And before drawing, I sketch with a pencil on my sketchbook as a artwork plan. Thank you for sharing a lot of references were have been made! ✨💖
maybe you dont complete the eyes because of the old saying 'the eyes are the window to the soul 'and dont want to feel like the paintings are watching you? or like me, you are just lazy 😝 great looking graphite portraits 🙂
