Sometimes what beginners like me want to see is how your arm moves, more than the lines you draw. It's the arm motion, where you place the paper with respect to your torso, how you switch grips for certain lines like vertical and horizontal, where does the fingers rest (or if theyr'e not touching the paper)
Ofcourse they are touching the paper but tnere isnt preassure and they are not anchored in a position. You must float over the paper that´s the secret. You can use the Elbow or shoulder as pivot. Use the wrist just only for short lines.
@@ooom4gicooo that's actually what I was doing wrong all this time!!!!!!
I was trying to glide my fingers on the paper to create a support but my elbow was OFF the table so it didn't work!
Now that I keep my elbow on the table it became so much easier thanks!
@@whatdotheycallmeagain The best advice that I can give to an artist is: Don't seek perfection, seek progress. Daily practice is the only thing that will get you closer to it. The human touch gives personality to the lines.
Thank you so much!!! My artteacher tought me never to move the sheet 😢 She said this would be cheating. I‘m so glad to see, that this is not a comment opinion. I move my sheets how I neeed it. Sometimes I felt like cheating 😂 Even knowing that there are no rules in art.
Thank you so much for this! I'll be sure to add it do daily exercises!
You're amazing Tim, thank you for the insight you constantly give us
Thanks Ahmed!! I appreciate the support!
Do you have on for curves and circles?
Thanks Tim! i'd also like to know how to make it easier to draw straight lines using a pen tablet (not display tablet with screen). It's extremely hard compared to trad or display.
Hey Kael! Yeah that's a great topic. I'll see what I can do :) I spent ages on a normal Wacom so I have a few things I can share. It's definitely a lot harder to get nice lines and nice drawing happening with a simple drawing tablet.
Drawing 101, some people get paid to draw a crooked line,that's a skill to,I don't like drawing pointed lines,thy hurt..ha🎨
My favorite art teacher always said if you can't draw a straight line. Don't worry get a ruler
