im gonna start this tommorow! are there any changes you would make 1 year later? im a complete beginner i just drew a few shapes and practiced a bit of 1 and 2 point perspective anything i should do before starting this?

This has been my experience as well. Creative is most important. I gotta paint and draw as if I already know everything and have all the skills. I might create crappy art and animations, but it's value is massive. Put the soul onto the canvas. The aesthetic, logic, and technique come to support the creative part and elevate it. Imo the aesthetic, technique, and logic parts should be learned on a need basis, and the need is informed by what the soul puts to paper. Even tho I know this I tend to just do the things I'm comfortable with, which is simply studying some thing, practicing cuboids, copy and memorizing a pretty picture. The cycle of drawing from memory, comparing, correcting mistakes, drawing from memory again till it matches the original, takes about 6 tries to get them to match to a satisfying level - very addicting to see this quick improvement. The next step which I tend to skip would be to draw the character, their pose, or things I memorized in different situations, poses, envoierments. Like transforming what I studied into 'soul'. But I shy away from it cause it is daunting and unknown as I do it too little. There's this little gap to mind between knowing what to do and doing the right thing. The soul sketchbook sounds about what I need to do to overcome that phobia.

Tanks a lot. Excellent description and great recommendations

Come back, I desperately need another video from you, Sir!

Thanks for breaking this down. In a sense this book is like a color mixing guide only with lights and shadow. I ordered this yesterday.

I got turn off when he said modern day james😂. Learn from the masters not some youtubers.

Lol, Scott Eaton "Whoever that is"

How would you go about using this book as basis for exercises? Sorry if my question sounds a bit weird- I've read the first 3 chapters and I felt that while it does explain things clearly, I'm still only an observer and will probably forget that information sooner or later because there is no exercise segments to digest the content. Or maybe there is and I just haven't noticed it because of the way the book is presented (fig and explanations).

Can you recommend a mentor ship class for a character designer concept artist class.

I’m blown away as a theatrical artist

This is one of the best videos about perspective that I've watched. You help my improve, thank you so much!

thanks dfor the recommendations~❤❤

Now I'm interested in Art, bye alcohol.

Os vídeos tão ótimos Celestino! Esse em especial é uma maravilha! Grande abraço

✨️It was a pleasure. Thank you!🙂

I don't feel a like is enough to express my gratitude so I'll say thank you here.

Such a great video, I just enrolled in NMA and going to start Dynamic Sketching today. Thank you for such a straightforward guide on where to start.

Super useful and clear. Thanks

Really oike your take on it! Just not the spiral part. Ive spent a year almost on brainstorm and i started working on a how to design gumroad back then, and showed it to Joon specifically(when he was smoking in the parking lot) because i knew he was one of the goats of that, and he told me in the beginning he also tried thinking very analytically that way but just advised me not to focus on it much that it would come naturally with time. So for the rendition of the spiral i might have a better design for you, think of it as a Fractal and a Neuron(kind of like obsidian the note taking app) every part is connected to another to varying deggress and if you change 1% here you might get a butterfly effect at the other end

The name of f the book put me off from it till now lol, gonna give ut a shot

Cda > bs

Thank you so much! i know better then i knew before watching this video. i like how you are not adding any useless info and waste time of your viewers. i am looking forward to build my art foundation, learn fundamentals etc and found your channel i hope i can find what i am looking for. a right guide. especially in TH-cam its heard to understand where to go and what not, and also those online courses..... its not clear which is good to take or not so thats why i am still in youtube. thank you for your amazing content!

Sir, your channel is a breath of fresh air! Grateful you decided to share with us your knowledge and passion!

There is a price difference between Alla Prima and Alla Prima ll. Is the larger Alla prima ll worth the higher price?

In case you have readed it: does someone recommend quick sketching with ron husband?

I never see drawing the head and figure by jack hamm I got it like 5 dollars used on ebay it's been the best book I've ever owned and I have waaayy more then these 50 it's short easy to carry has many examples of everything Everything poses anatomy hatching different variations of hair alot of information I found it invaluable and nobody ever uses it I keep it next to me when I draw short and packed with knowledge for reference and understanding head and figure

Would you recommend using a tablet for beginners? I’m kind of a minimalist and don’t like having so much papers and books around

That triangle, would personally simplify it to "Story-Composition-Logic" just to avoid all the mysticism/subjectivity of "creative" and "aesthetic." For things like abstract art, you just have "story" at zero or outside the piece rather then within the piece. For rough thumbnails you just have the story and composition but not the logic. For gesture and observational art you just have logic and composition with little story. Etc. The Technique-Logic-Aesthetic-Creative system seems closer to a "deconstruction" principle, since unlike the first trifecta, it seems to focus a lot more on analysis of how something was made rahter then what the key ingredients are to make it. It's like looking at food that was already made and figuring out how it was made, vs, looking at what pile of ingeredients should be gathered up to make good food. You can kind of tell this is the case from the order too: the tri-part system starts with story (or has it on top; it definetly doesnt sound like it would start at logic by any means) while the quad system presented ends with creative, as if its' the "last part" or "cherry on top", rather then the start or essence. TBH, I think most material out there has intentionally chosen the "deconstruction path" since it's the easier path to present and teach and write books about: "here's the billion pieces of the jigsaw, figure it out, we gave you everything [except how to use it]", but what we really need is the opposite, we need the process that teaches people how to cook: how to make small satisfying things, then using those skills make bigger things, then more complex and so on, all the while the student being happy about their results. Whenever I see "got good really fast" stories, thats what I see, people who learned how to cook, not people who were the biggest nerds about every detail. The problem of having a story then finding the pieces you need to make that story happen and going from there is much easier to solve then starting with all the "very important super crucial skills you need to have before you start" then trying to "find" what you want to make under this artificial constraint of "use everything". What do you cook with all the ingredients and techniques all-in-one? I'm sure there's something, but its counterintuitively more limiting then cooking with less, and it probably requires a great degree of mastery to even start. Thats why I think everyone is just blinded by reaching some "peak of complexity mountain" even when all the ways that people describe helps them, such as studies, gesture drawing, references, etc, are all the opposite of what they think they need, and various forms of simplification always prove to be very effective (things often construed to "stylization" to deemphasize it). I blame social media influence and academia biases for a lot of this. The goal should never be to reach peak complexity, or peak how-hard-can-I-make-it, the goal should be to return to simplicity, unification of all the elements back into the original goal, the story we wanted to tell. Cohesiveness is more important then detail. And we should teach in that direction instead. Not that I except to see that change in my lifetime.

Lightbox Expo just posted something on their page about AI also. Looks like the film industry is forming some type of resistance from that video, but video games and illustration might still be up in the air without legislation

Are those tutorials beginner friendly? Because I'm fairly new to drawing drawing for like maybe 2 years now. And I remember like taking classes for the first time. I had no idea what the instructor was talking about. Because a lot of teachers they forgot what it's like to be a beginner because they've been drawing for so long. Like I took Marshall course on understanding. Bridgeman. Marshall is like Stan from proko's friend. And I really didn't understand it at all. In the first book I bought when learning to draw was Michael Hampton's book. I found it incredibly hard to understand because I had never drawn anything before. But now I understand it because I've been drawing for a while. But giving a figure drawing book to someone who's never drawn before. I don't think they would understand it because I didn't. Like with loomis's books? I had no idea what he was talking about when I read them. I had to watch proko channels to understand what the Loomis method was because it's not explained very well in the book. He uses really outdated language. Also, I don't think books are the best place to learn compared to video. Because you could read something but you could be interpreting it wrong. That's probably another thing that I did reading art books when I first started. Since I had no knowledge about art, I probably did most of the exercises wrong. But now reading art books I understand them. they're just not great for complete beginners. So I'm guessing these tutorials are probably intermediate level. Could like a complete beginner that has never picked up a pencil. Do them

I can probably think about in the future if all we use is AI. They're going to say like you actually memorized all these rules you learned how to draw something from every angle. That's such a huge waste of time when there's like 3D models or AI. Kind of like in the 1800s industrial Revolution. A lot of the things that they used are outdated now. But I still think they'll probably be artists after the camera was invented there. We're still painters. They just painted different things and then more loose styles. But I can definitely see in the future. A lot of people completely forget how to draw because a program can just do it for them.

You Have No Idea How Much I Love This Movie ❤Great Video BTW 😇

Great video Luiz! I studied with you quite a while ago and had some rough patches mentally while trying to make art a career, specially focused on entertainment. It was sucking the enjoyment of making art for me and I insisted on it for years, had jobs and even worked a bit in the industry but just realized it simply wasn't for me. My personality wasn't made for that, no matter how much I insisted, and that coupled with the instability of the current market situation in the recent years led me to pursue and start working in a new career altogether, one which while not directly related to art, is something that I enjoy too. Now, after some months, I'm finally coming back to art but as a hobby and free of the weight of having to make a career from it, and while it is so freeing and I have a much better relationship with the art of making art nowadays, making it for my own sake of enjoyment and not to be constantly competitive in a job market, it can still have somewhat of a weight on oneself if you start looking introspectively into yourself as a "failed artist" or as someone who "quit". While those thoughts aren't genuinely honest and I wouldn't go back to the place I was before, it's something we mature and accept with time, I guess. Great video! I would hope more people would take on this subject, that it's okay sometimes to take art just as a hobby and that doesn't mean you're not dedicated to it or it isn't important to you, but just that you chose to not make your livelihood through it. I found that for myself, I could only achieve the freedom and joy I wanted in the act of making art if it wasn't my main or only source of income and livelyhood, otherwise it would constantly cause anxiety and suck the joy out of it.

This is such a great video! I was looking for some books to improve my skills this really helped, thank you!

Question for you. I noticed that Peter Han’s Dynamic Bible book contains similar content to Scott Robertson’s How to Draw book (of course the teaching method is totally different between them). If I were to only pick one book which covers drawing by building things from basic forms, which one would be preferable ? Your answer would be greatly appreciated.

I could really kiss you on the forehead for doing all of this AMAZING content. Keep it up man! 😅

hi im having trouuble finding exercises from FZD and brain storm yo mentioned at 19:13. thanks a lot!!!

Everyone recommends drawing on the right side of the brain. Personally, I think it's the worst book I've ever read. It basically only teaches you how to copy pictures. It doesn't really teach you how to draw. On the proko draftman podcast, Marshall tore this book apart. Basically he always wanted to learn from imagination but it would just teach him how to like observe things from life. He could draw like photo realism with reference 100% accurate. But as soon as you would take away his reference, he couldn't draw anything. Basically it didn't really teach you how to build things out of your mind. You have to learn construction and building things out of shapes for that. And the science behind the book has been debunked as well. Betty is basically just coming from a fine art perspective and it's aimed at the complete beginner who doesn't know how to see anything. Eventually, through enough drawing you'll be able to like see proportions accurately and you won't even need to measure. After about a thousand drawings or 10,000 hours, that's usually how long it takes to be able to draw decently

THIS VIDEO DESERVES 10 MILLION VIEWS oh my god. you are out here saving lives. you've just earned a loyal subscriber

I love learning perspective thanks you

Perspective did not click for me until watch both gary meyers gnomone workshop videos and marshall vandruffs 1990s Perspective course.(he is supposed coming out with his new one this year according to a recent interview with proko).both were recommended it radio runners self taught curriculum for artist. Scotts and erik olson stuff made me want to jump off a cliff😂😂😂. I tried numerous times with there stuff. Perspective i found hard to learn from a book, and olsons i never can never past hour 10 or so of olsons massive course. he way over complicates things to the point where it feels like im supposed to be sort of engineer just to draw lol. Dan beardshaw also has great tutorials on youtube.

Came across your video . Very interesting. I am trying to upload my daughter’s photo in mid journey and turn it into a John singer Sargent painting. Is it possible? Have you had any such luck. Knowing what prompts seems to be the key . Thanks again

Hi, I was happy to find this video as I am a hobbyist being too old gif a career and just want to continually learn and improve. I can draw most things and that might be because I was trained as a Draughtsman. I post regularly on instagram and have for a number of years posting sketches and the odd Procreate piece which I struggle with. I also have a youtube channel where I post about my British model railway and a variety of other topics including scratch building scale models. I guess I have a passion and love to speak with people who are real trained artists hoping to get an insight into their minds. I even visited FZD in Singapore when we stopped there for a couple of days. Feng was in LA at the time. However his staff accommodated my interests and were very helpful in explaining what happened at the school. Looking forward to exploring your channel. Regards Charlie

I was reading like a couple art books like this animation book called drawn to life. And animators say you shouldn't really copy what you're seeing. One to one you have to capture the gesture to make it feel alive, not just copy. I never really liked representational art where you're trying to like, copy something or make it so put a realistic that it looks like a photograph. Because that kind of defeats the purpose a camera can do that. It's also less creative. stylized art I think is more difficult than realism. You have to use your imagination to design shapes and things like that. And like hyper realistic art, you just have to copy what you're seeing. It doesn't require that much imagination for you to come up with an interesting idea. I think when like the camera was invented a lot of art changed and they stopped doing like hyperealism and then other art movements came into play like modernism impressionism. There were still realistic portraits but not as many.
