When trying to accurately transfer angles, I tend to think of the hands on a clock. I find my angle with my pencil and imagine the angles starting point as the center of a clock so that when I take that angle over to my paper I am less likely to skew it in translation. I am so grateful for all of your content, Michelle. You're unbelievably helpful, encouraging, inspiring and quite funny. Thank you.
Thank you Michele. The English countryside and villages are beautiful. Although I am a South African (with British grandparents), I have travelled fairly extensively in the UK.
I’m working on a drawing right now. And I am so grateful I checked out your channel because I’m not very good at landscapes and what I needed for the drawing that I’m doing is a forest background and cutting out a window shape to use against a forest scene is exactly what I needed for my work. You truly are my most favourite art teacher. Thank you, thank you, thank you Love.
Your RUclips tutorials are the best I have seen. There are a few other talented RUclipsrs out there who I have learned so much from but to get a full description they are always looking for money because it is their livelihood, which is fair enough. You also have a Patreon channel, but the fact that you give away PDFs and various other things free, makes me come back to you far more often and I thank you sincerely for that.
Made a rough small frame for the sunset in your landscape course. But, like the 2 parts frame idea you’ve given us! Thanks so clever around your Abbey!
Thank you, Michele, I'm at the beginning of learning to draw so I will watch this video again; there is a lot to learn. BTW, your hair style is very flattering, I'm thinking of cutting my hair like yours. 😉
Great tips ! Thank you, Michele. The only other tip I would give myself is to not only watch drawing lessons on here but start drawing more and develop some muscle memory.
Great video. Good to know I'm not alone with these issues. I found that by turning my reference picture upside down makes drawing much easier and I tend to get a better result
My goodness you explain things well, especially what artists are doing when holding a pencil out at arms length. Thanks for all your tips. I like the transferring of an angle to the drawing paper trick, very useful. Great tutorial, thanks 💜🌹
Yet another excellent and very informative video. The explanation of scaling up a photo onto a larger size of paper is very useful, I can't wait to try this out. Thank you.
A great video! Japanese prints and pictures inspired by them (eg, Aubrey Beardsley, and late C19th/early 20th children's book illustrations) are brilliant for learning about negative space, which really helps with construction.
Why have I never thought to do a thumbnail sketch? Wonderfully helpful! I think this week's biggest problem for me is getting the angles and object proportions working together properly in my piece of art. At least I've mastered the patience of not putting paint on it until I like the drawing ... oh wait, maybe that is my 'procrastination' habit kicking in to help out ;)
You are so encouraging. I always wondered how the pencil measurements were taken. Your explanation of using a straight-arm makes perfect sense. I especially like that you talk so clearly and cut out all the extraneous, repetitive stuff.
Thank you, Michele! Your channel is quite excellent. I have been away for awhile, but I am making an effort to get back to my art. Life just seems to take over at times. I am a caregiver and days can be long and exhausting. Even if all I do is watch your videos, I feel like I am doing something, if only in my imagination.
Very interesting information watched it twice,most likely will rewatch to reinforce information, thank you again for do these videos...mikelle art mom🎨✍👩🎨
Your number 6, lack of patience is really a problem for me. When I start a painting, watercolour or not, I immediately get a feeling of finishing it at once! And I dont know why. I realise that everyone’s speed is different but I cant get rid of the feeling of comparing myself with the others, if I am in a class. Surprisingly when I am drawing at home by myself, I am much less patient!
I’m pretty good at scale and perspective as long as I am copying but rubbish if I was to add a person into the Whitby Abbey picture. Some great tips and reminders, thanks.
My problem is drawing the picture in my haed in the right proportions, so agree with 1. Perspektive is still a "not so good friend" of mine. I watshed ad least 100 of videos didn't klick jet. I have to admid, drawing every day and practice different styles makes a huge different already. I don't want to draw realistic just acurate (a wolf should look like a wolf and not like a fox or a dog). Thanks to your videos I learned a lot already. 🌼🌻
Thanks, Michele! Wonderful tips, well explained - as always. I have a heck of a time drawing human hair. I know not to draw individual strands, but I just don't have a handle on how to proceed. Could you create a video on this one day? Thanks.
Brilliant tips Michele, my favourites are the mount tip and the pencil tip. I must just say, I love your humour too. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge 😊
Would be interested in seeing a video on any rules in redrawing to a different focal point from a photo. Example photo showing above horizon to redrawing to photo point at horizon. Thanks for the videos . Now retired and have learned many improvements from your videos.
It takes time. I have a video in the drawing playlist that walks you through it step by step. The more you practice the better your drawing gets. Try tracing just the main elements then putting the smaller details in by eye, this helps train your brain to see better :-)
Nice video! Lots of info to re-ingest. I'm using the Loomis method bc I really enjoy portraits and I'm getting more accurate. I'm just so rusty and without complaining hehe, I can't wait until I've done about 10 more and I'm reliably able to eyeball it again using my pencil and measurement system. I was almost there when I started using the Loomis. It's like I'm just slightly off. Model looks esthetically pleasing but not up to the hyper realism I was able to do 15-20 years ago. Like the model looks like a pretty model, but just slightly off compared to the photo I'm drawing from. I've got to stretch my drawing muscles - they are sore. The scaling method with the diagonals was really useful. Before I never used a physical measurement, bc it was spot on, but that was after drawing about 20 or so portraits. The more practice, it comes back. I'm going back to oils and acrylic bc at least with those I can move the drawing around like clay with the opaque paint and adjust. Watercolors is fun, but so much prep time is involved with getting a decently accurate starter drawing and it's not so forgiving like acrylic, oils or even gouache is it ;)
Your explanations are very good and make sense. However, in this video talking about perspective and scale, I see the angle of your demonstration is positioned where the top is wide and the bottom is smaller so those angles are not measuring up to a square or a rectangle. In some of your other videos your filming is flat and the squares are square and rectangles are rectangles. Even so, I understand what you mean but my eye is picking up the difference between flat and angled of the subject of the picture to the "framing tool" I hope that makes sense.
There are phone apps that show you angle which could be helpful. One such app is 'Angle Finder' which is very helpful if you want to transfer them to a drawing (use the long side of your phone).
My biggest challenge is foreshadowing, ie a hand with fingers directly in front of you, front of a flower.... My brain knows all the fingers and petals are nearly the same size but foreshadowed they are shorter. You have to look at shape and dismiss what you know... ty for your great content and examples! Maybe touch on foreshadowing sometime. Maybe you have already?
Mary Whyte works almost completely upright, almost always at an easel :) She also has such a cool style of wet in wet loose abstract meets wet on dry, tight hyper realism.
Your comment about anyone being able to draw is, IMO, off target. I started trying to seriously draw realistically when I was about 25. I am now 75 and still cannot draw. Also, I’ve spent 50 years working quite hard to learn. I’ve read and worked through several books, often more than once. Drawing On the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards wasTHE book I diligently worked through more than once, and I did the same with the updated edition. I’ve also worked through Keys to Drawing, by Dobson, various Loomas books, etc. I’ve probably worked through 100 plus drawing books attempting to become a good pen and ink or pencil artist. I’ve filled over a hundred sketchbooks with very poor drawings. I have three thousand plus drawings on my iPad. At least a hundred iPad drawings are tracings, and I have deleted hundreds of drawings that were especially bad. I’ve also taken several drawing classes at the college level. Nonetheless, I’m no good at drawing. Let’s take circles. I’ve been attempting to draw good circles for years, but I can only occasionally get a good circle in one shot. Always lopsided. The proportions of the subjects is my main problem, but there are several others. Heads are another example. Using the Loomas method I draw the various needed circles and they always are messed up. I can’t get the eye lines, nose and mouth lines straight. Nothing lines up well. My drawings of the mouth are especially bad. I have practiced drawing a mouth incessantly, but still can’t do it. It’s like math, I can’t do it with any hope of accuracy. [oddly, I was quite good at statistics]. Based on my experience, I think a person has to have at least some native ability, but many people do not have any inherent ability. I am one of those. No amount of training can fix that because nothing is there to work with. I now shake so much I need to use a computer program to smooth out my lines and often I use tracing the main elements of the subject to assist my drawing. That’s another sign I’ve given up. I still try to draw and sketch on my paper sketchbooks with pen and ink almost every day, but they are as bad as ever. I think you might alter your “anyone can draw” statement to say something like “virtually anyone can learn to draw a realistic image”. Thank you. AD2 PS: I really like your channel. Please talk slower. I can’t keep up with your speech. A very slight pause at the end of your sentence would help because it would give my mind time to digest what you just finished saying. I’m not trying to be overly critical. I have signed up for your channel and I watch it often. You are really great.
Very interesting comment. I've always thought anyone could draw with a little practice..some more practice than others, but that's because drawing comes easily to me. I will now rethink what I tell others. Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you enjoy the process, even if you feel the end result isn't great.
My problem with drawing is that there is a disconnect between my eye, my brain and my hand. I can see what I want to do all right, but my hand never gets the message.
Thanks for another great video. I’ve been working on a drawing of a bridge over a highway with cars passing beneath it. Not much to my surprise, I have difficulty drawing cars, particularly their tires. Help, please. Any tips?
Curved perspective drawing sounds like something that might have come from a renaissance art school or a world renowned artist of the past whose paintings go now for obscene sums but who died penniless.
I struggle with patience as I only commit 10-15 minutes at a time, maybe only 15 minutes each day? It’s then more of a rush to get things on the paper. It can take me weeks to get a mediocre result. How much time should I aim for to complete a graphite pet sketch of just a head or head and body? 🤔
There's no right answer for this question, an outline only could take just a few minutes, whereas a detailed sketch could take hours. It might be an idea for you to try a 'faster' drawing medium such as charcoal.

Hi Michele, I'm starting to see the light of perspective, which makes me very excited. Thank you.
I think portraits!
The best advice I heard: slow down. Thank you. 🙏💙🌵🌵🌵🌵

Oh that's such a good idea, much easier to remember a clock!
Great tip, thank you!
I read this tip when you first posted it and came across it again today. I have used it many times. Thank you so much.
So glad I could help!
Awesome information!! Thanks!
Thank you Michele. The English countryside and villages are beautiful. Although I am a South African (with British grandparents), I have travelled fairly extensively in the UK.

Rewatching your video again. I get more out of them each time. Thank you Michele! 🥰✍🏽
I’m glad I found your channel. I’m in my 60s and recently discovered that drawing is wonderful self-care. Thanks.
Wonderful!
💖💓💗 so helpful!
I'm so glad!

Even though you can imagine the composition (something I can also do), making thumbnails to get values is invaluable.

There are seasons where it's hard to find time, I know. At least you are learning.
My challenges are confidence and patience. I find that I can draw when I put my mind to it.
Thank you Michelle. I am learning so much from your videos.
I'm so glad!
Thank you for the encouraging explanations. I am in mid-sixties, and I really look forward to your presemtations!
Thanks Steve!
Thank you, Michele, that is so helpful. I will have to watch multiple times, I think!!
Glad it was helpful!
I appreciate listening to your lectures.
Glad to hear that
Miss Michele- You are HILARIOUS 😂!! I PERSONALLY have a lovely forehead and my elbows are actually my best feature. Lol 😆 🤣
Love it!!
This is another great video, Michele! It’s helpful to understand all the elements of planning a drawing out.
Glad it was helpful!
I have just started using pencil angles for a lot of perspective lines. It is such a good resource.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for the drawing tips! This will help me so much! 🤗
You are so welcome!

I sketch faces mainly, the angle of the nose is always off! I now know how to correct it. Thanks Michele

I have some videos on drawing faces with curved guidelines, similar to loomis. I love gouache too :-)
You can also use a proportional divider.
Yes, I found students got into difficulty with these (usually because the screw wasn't tight enough or they kept moving them!)
Using markers to produce sketches, in the way product designers do or did - would be an interesting technique to attempt.
It would!
Wonderful tutorial as always! I have a difficult time drawing fabric or clothing. If you have any tips, they would be much appreciated!
Thank you! Will consider that for a future subject!

Definitely lack of patience and thinking too much about the end result
Thanks for another great video. I’ve been working on a drawing of a bridge over a highway with cars passing beneath it. Not much to my surprise, I have difficulty drawing cars, particularly their tires. Help, please. Any tips?
Some people like to enclose them in a 'box' guideline. In otherwords, height and width then draw from there.
@@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber thanks, I’ll try that
Btw, love this video :) 👏
Thanks! 😃
Curved perspective drawing sounds like something that might have come from a renaissance art school or a world renowned artist of the past whose paintings go now for obscene sums but who died penniless.
💜💜💜💜💜
i find the most daunting problem is what to draw.
I struggle with patience as I only commit 10-15 minutes at a time, maybe only 15 minutes each day? It’s then more of a rush to get things on the paper. It can take me weeks to get a mediocre result. How much time should I aim for to complete a graphite pet sketch of just a head or head and body? 🤔
There's no right answer for this question, an outline only could take just a few minutes, whereas a detailed sketch could take hours. It might be an idea for you to try a 'faster' drawing medium such as charcoal.
🎉
If you could some time, 'how to draw faces'. I've used the fractions, tracing paper, etc. and they just look like aliens.
Take a look in the drawing playlist, I have several videos that may help you.
I just noticed that you, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Gillian Anderson all have the same type of lips. No wonder I get a little fuzzy watching these.
Angles are my biggest problem....ugh.
