    What a difference a good teacher and a week’s worth of practice makes. I’ve gone from stick figure hands to, “Oh! Look at me!! I’m drawing hands!!!” In. One. Week. After 60 years of telling myself, I can’t draw. Thank you, Brandon.

    @Shindai 5 лет назад +449

    I like this approach, it's more playful than I've had before. There's an art class local to me but the teacher really emphasises the realism, and I just wanna sketch roughly, I'm put off by endless shading and refining, I just wanna draw stuff well enough for people to recognise what I'm drawing. This feels a lot more open ended and less pressure to do it perfectly.

      Not sure whether he already did faces (Just started to watch) But IMO try to simplify things (as he said in this video) at first. Instead of a detailled nose, you might just want to draw the most distinguishing marks. Don't draw your own face, it's pretty hard, instead grab some random pictures from the almighty internet, maybe even facebook, look at their most distinguishing marks, and draw those.
      Marks you could pay attention to:
      headshape, especially chin
      Shape of the eyes,
      noseline,
      general direction of hair,
      eyebrow line, by extention hair direction
      mouthline,
      upperlips,
      lower lips,
      ears if you can see some,
      accessories and more
      Face proportions might also help you. The eyes are actually in the middle of our headshape, nose ends at 1/4 of headshape, mouth at 1/8, and if the mouth is resting, then where the corner of the mouth is, is there, where you should draw the eyes.

      SpareBrains561 you can start animating now! It doesn't matter weither you're good or bad, basic cartoons can be a perfect base for a beginner in animating. You don't NEED to be amazing at art to be an animator. Just start animating where you are and both your animation and art will improve in time. Best of luck my friend :)

      Just because they have less views doesn't mean they all quit. Most could have gone to another series and just didn't want to stick to this one. People probably just reccomend the first video a lot since it is a very great intro to drawing.

    Simplicity. Everything is a circle, square, triangle, rectangle…Loose and quick, then refine.

    When drawing random objects around the house, for example. I've been practicing on a wooden spoon. is it good practice to draw in the Oval shape than the cylinder(handle portion) like actual complete shapes and just connecting them? sorry if you don't understand my question trying to fund a way good way to put in words haha

    • @lalaithan
      @lalaithan 8 лет назад +2

      +Paul Berber The oval can actually be broken down more to a circle and two triangles, if that's easier. But yes, this technique will come in handy when you start to draw people and animals.

  • @sumayya003
    @sumayya003 9 лет назад +21

    I always thought the only things I can draw right are hands, but now I see I've been doing that wrong too lol. I usually just look at objects as a mess of lines and try following those lines, rather than shapes and maybe that's why my drawing sucks haha. Great video, really helped clear things up for me!
