    Wait what? The whole bootcamp will be released here?? Marshall couldn't possibly become any more of a legend

    the way he stops, questions, yells, highlights how confusingly things are worded or explained is so cathartic . i think im gonna actually learn from this

    Everytime i hear you speak about art you remind me that the thing that really matters is the love for the craft. That alone is worth so much.

      It's the passion and appreciation of skill. And he talks like we artist do. Not just "oh it looks nice, look at the colors"

    I recently gotten serious about drawing,
    Despite wishing I started years ago when I was younger and had time,,,
    But no more regrets, no more self guilt-trapping, I am going to learn and learn.
    I was happy finding Bridgman's books last week, And I thought learning them would feel lonely but your video and future series(for me) will help a lot
    Doubt you read comments at all but thanks.

    Adding that this part just killed me: "You say, 'Well, does that mean you can't be a good artist?' No, it does not mean that! You can be a great artist and go off the page. There are some artists that drink too much alcohol and don't treat their friends well. Those may be more serious mistakes than going off the page."

    This book has been in use nearly 100 years now. Pretty insane to think about, this bootcamp honestly should have this sort of longevity. You're dispelling a lot of the frustrations I've been having with my study of it. I'm on my second way through it now trying to do it more from memory and the struggle is realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

    I've just found this. What a fantastic resource. As a teacher and an artist I am bowled over! I'm rewinding, rewatching and even laughing sometimes. I particularly love the fact you point out Bridgman's inconsistencies whilst encouraging us to enjoy them!

  • @2mbst1

    I had the complete guide on my shelf for decades now (the yellow one) I didn’t understand a single thing he wrote back when I bought it. Have been getting back into drawing lately, just for fun - lots of trees. Somehow ended up again at drawing boxes, got interested in anatomy and re-read the first 20 or so pages, then drew along with what he wrote and suddenly it all makes sense. It’s as if he wrote it in a way that FORCES you to think about it, and by actively thinking about it, you’re learning much better. But some passages are hard to understand for a non native speaker, so I came looking if someone took apart the book. Your video is tremendously helpful! I will try to get as far as possible in my own, and watch when there’s a language barrier again.

    Eternal gratitude (also for the no background music! Really helps with focus/no distractions.)

    • @10milesfromnowhere
      @10milesfromnowhere 2 года назад +4

      I'm so glad Mr Vandruff is teaching this - this needs all the humor one can add to it (because the instructions basically are "know how to do it already, and then do it". This explains so much about me giving up on learning to draw better people -- this was the first (!) book I ever read on drawing anatomy/gesture. I took a video course years later as a second attempt, and am still learning now, but holy hell.

    Then I enjoyed Marshall's distinctively smart humour, golden advice and amazing stories in all the episodes of the draftsmen podcast 🤩
    Now, THIS ! His entire Bridgman Bootcamp on youtube for free 🥰
    He's just great.

    In drawing from the model, I developed the habit of blocking in the trunk first--thorax and pelvis--adding the limbs and head/neck secondarily. My first teacher, former illustrator Gustav Rehberg, had us draw 20 one-minute poses every day. That became my favorite part of the class and it was the most valuable practice to drawing the body in action in space. To get the action, the appendages--limbs and head/neck--were for me subordinate to the position and twisting of the trunk to get an accurate (and lively) recording of the form.

    1) how did i miss this series way back when
    2) where have such minds of clarity & purpose gone?
    ...social media might not be the place, for by design it cannot encompass the breadth of great ideas expanded over time. beyond initial flashes of novelty lie journeys with hills, valleys, caves, peaks & vistas beyond compare...
    3) thanks for the share & reminder than great minds still exist, pondering topics off "popular culture" & deep in niche gardens of extraordinary flora
    TLDR, media of the common type pales in comparison to a good lecture, book, or meditation...

  • @Dragongaze13
    @Dragongaze13 2 года назад +10

    I'm a pretty skilled artist but I still have a hard time "seeing it" before drawing it. It's something I want to train but don't really know how. I'm more on the "on the fly" kind of side. It's a fun process in itself but it is not what I want to be. At least not ENTIRELY what I want to be. I also think I "saw it" better when I was younger. Maybe it has to do with patience and focus ? Or maybe it's just because my "taste" is more developped than my "skill" ?
    Someone would happen to have ressources on the matter ? Be it philosophical, practical, scientifical or anything ?
    Great video.

    • @yohenson
      @yohenson 2 года назад +2

      I have the same thing. Where I want to experiment. But sometimes I have visions which I get on paper. Usually at my dismay of the result. Since I’m still working on foundations. But it is still much more satisfying to have a vision and put it down rather than noodling and be always happy about it. Noodling is very important to me also. Therapeutic. So about having a good sense of vision before drawing. Marshall had a book by nicholadies I think. But the exercise was to draw every day from memory with no shading. On lines. And no reference. Obviously. For a year. That can get you better real fast when you realize how to fix your perspective. Mostly. And also much more to your point- how to work with your imagination. Just imagine something and draw it. Even if it’s not meaningful. Also a good exercise

    When you announced this webinar in 2020, I really wanted to attend, but I wasn't able to due to timezone differences (The meeting would have been at 3:00 AM for me). I had been on the look-out on your website, hoping you would release the material as a course for self-study to buy. I never expected you would put it out for free, very generous of you!
    I'm glad now that I can also take it at my own pace. A bootcamp with a heavy homework load like this is hard to take alongside a full-time job.
