Today I take on the challenge of trying to learn to draw something I've never drawn before within 30 minutes! This is a bit of a follow up to my previous video where I discuss how I go about studying to improve my drawing skills and I wanted to show this process in real time so you can see the results yourself. 🔥 KICKSTARTER PRE LAUNCH 🔥 www.kickstarter.com/projects/forrestimel/five-color-playm...
Want to Draw Better? - An Effective Study Method

Primarily focused around the ideas of skill versus knowledge with art. Skill being common physical skills necessary like drawing ability...

3 Moments That My Art Failed - What Happens When a Client Doesn't Like Your Work?

All of which were difficult in the moment, but I've learned a lot during those times and hope that I can help others feel more comfortable with ...

    sorry if this comes off as confusing, but for the studying phase (example: hands), would you try to study the simplified constructions in the book first, following the authors' instructions step by step, OR would you try drawing hands from reference (either using photos or using your own hands) using the construction methods from the book and note anything interesting you see? I ask this because I'm trying to improve my hand drawing by using both anatomy for sculptors and marco bucci's hand drawing videos as resources, but I struggle with trying to figure out how to effectively study them and how to relate the simplified constructions back to real life references. I used to take notes when studying but I stopped because I realized I was spending more time note-taking than actually drawing.

    Thanks a lot for the content! I really like your videos and find them very insightful :) I have a question regarding flow/force: is the "force" that Michael Mattesi talks about in his books very different than Michael Hampton's idea of flow in gestures? Because he also talks about this idea of asymmetry and flow in gesture drawing.

    • @ForrestImel
      @ForrestImel 13 дней назад

      it's very similar to the sort of asymmetrical flow through anatomy, although I think it's using that concept of asymmetry and flow to inform your decisions when exaggerating your anatomy, not just recognizing it as something that naturally happens but pushing those shapes even further. It's well worth picking it up if you haven't!

  • @thelads4057
    @thelads4057 13 дней назад

    You have no idea how perfect the timing is for this video to drop because I have a question about painting. Would you say painting is more like sculpting or is it more about finding the exact shapes of things. Also how do you paint, would you say that you search for shapes when painting or are you thinking more like a graphic designer? On one hand I can know the form of something really well but somehow can’t invent shapes of the gecko when shading, but if I take a more sculptural mindset I can just paint normally and make it look super good and the shapes and forms sorta just get defined later naturally on their own. It’s so freaking weird man.

    • @ForrestImel
      @ForrestImel 13 дней назад

      I think it helps to chunk things into steps, when I am planning a painting I think more like a graphic designer where I am considering the overall shapes and adjusting them in a way I think works well, but then when I am rendering the actual image I think more like a sculptor where I am thinking of the individual planes of an object and how it would catch the light. This is something that is just really difficult to all do simultaneously without a lot of practice to where it becomes subconsciously thought of.
