In this sketchbook, you must draw all sorts of things in all sorts of ways. (I like Moleskine sketchbooks, but any type that appeals to you will work.) You can find sketchbooks with hard covers too. A pad of paper with a stiff back and spiral side or top that’s small enough to carry everywhere is perfect.
It’s really important to draw in a sketchbook too.
To draw, you have use pencils and erasers a lot to learn how to draw with them, so you need to draw as much as you can and as often as you can. To ride a bike, you have to be on the bike and learn how to balance and pedal yourself. You can’t be told how to balance on two wheels and push the pedals with your feet and expect to ride a bike without crashing. It’s a little like learning to ride a bike. Since your questions are similar, I’ll answer all of you at once.ĭrawing practice is the only real way to learn how to draw well. Lazy Lala, Angelo, Montserrat, JVC Carolina, & ola, I hatched in a rough background because I needed a dark value to relate the values of her face to in the next step.
But we’re not machines so there will always be some variance between our drawings and reality. If you don’t, the next layers of the drawing will be wrong too, and much harder to correct. The first few lines of a drawing are always challenging, and it really is so very important to get that part right. Something in our human nature makes us want to draw faces “straight” even if they’re angled Cat Sketch Step Two – Hatch In The Background This is a very common mistake and makes a skewed looking drawing. Her face is angled and I caught myself trying to draw three different parts of it straight. If you can get one thing plotted out very well, you can base all the other measurements on it. If you want to be extremely accurate, take measurements with your pencil and thumb of different parts of the scene and carefully transfer them to the paper. It’s like drawing using a frame, only you just imagine the frame. Then I draw everything that belongs in the box … in the box! I always start by measuring how wide and tall the main part of the subject is with the tip of my pencil and my thumb, and then make a box. Cat Sketch Step One – Block In The Cat’s Face
