      Something I found that really helps is if you scan the drawing, and then print versions of it to try to color I usually draw a star in yellow highlighter on the original drawing, and then make the copies in black and white, so I can se which is the original drawing.

    I have a couple different styles, but anyway I have some tips.
    1. DO NOT
    Let ANYONE tell you your style is bad. Its YOUR Opinion.
    2. Let yourself be free.
    Draw whatever, whenever.
    3. Doodle. What does it seem you like drawing most? Draw that a lot.
    4. Have as many styles as you want!!
    5. If you see something wrong with a piece you've worked hard on, oh well. Its something for you to cherish. Its beautiful.
    6. SPEND TIME ON IT
    Draw frequently.

      I have a problem - I'm decently good at drawing, but only when I'm doing fanart. I have a tendency to copy styles almost _exactly._ If you put my fanart for say Rick and Morty alongside my fanart for Death Note you wouldn't believe they were done by the same artist.
      So how do I develop my style? I've tried and failed to mash things up. It looks bad and when I try to fix it it becomes one of the things I'm trying to mix up in the first place >_

    • @cemetery2801
      @cemetery2801 6 ปีที่แล้ว +36

      What is a good type of way you like to draw that pleases you? Anime, chibi, simple, or basically pick a style you like and is easiest when doing fanart.
      For example, anime. If you like that, you should use it. If there is any thing that you would like to add and take away, go ahead.
      One of my styles are anime.
      But I changed up the eyes a bit and mouth and also the hair.
      Also, you could have many styles.
      A tip on drawing is sketching out the body and the bone structure and basically whole body.
      don't erase sketches until you're done.
      tutorial throughout drawing USE PENCIL**:
      1. Sketch body of the character. Make it in the pose you want. note that you can make this how messy you want, it doesn't matter/
      2. Add hair, but make sure its not just scribble hair. You know what I mean. I do thick locks, not every strand separate from another..but if you want to do that, go ahead.
      3. Add the face in the position, and, emotion you want
      4. face is pretty much done, just add shading if you want or blush.
      5. clothes...if you want to, put shading and wrinkles in clothes.
      6. outline all details in outliner or sharpies, or pens, just something permanent
      7. erase sketches
      DRAWING DONE!
      I hope I helped you!

      Thank you very encouraging! I grew up on anime and I have my own style for that pretty down but its probably still evolving! Now I am taking interest in western styles and old cartoon styles like Rubber Hose style and more so I want to develop one like that as well! Art is so fun! Enjoy everyone and don't worry you will get there!

    • @abfg616
      @abfg616 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      @Cwoo!, dont beat yourself up about it. Keep drawing until you like what you draw, and take criticism into account. Ask people about what they like least about your art, and you might realize that's what you don't like about your art and try to fix it! But whatever you do, dont get too upset about what other people say or even your own self doubt. Eventually, you'll find something you like and keep on doing it.

    i was sitting here, listening to everything you were saying. i kept thinking “i wanna be able to draw. i want to draw.” i also thought “i know how to find my art style, she’s literally telling me how to. you’ve been drawing since wonder pets was still aired.” then it all came to me. i grabbed my stylus, opened infinite painter, and started. i started with the shape of the head, circling around the top. the. eyes and everything came to me then. i’ve found my art style. thank you.

    YALLLLL heres a tip that no one told me, idk if it’ll work for everyone but heres what i did:
    i started drawing in pen instead of pencil and because you cant rub it out i just went along and kept sketching in pen, because of that it made my drawings better? cause i kept practicing instead of rubbing it out and thats also how i found my style in such a short amount of time. (also look at other artists styles and see what u like and try drawing that but dont like fully copy it) its only been a few days and ive found a style i really like, i just need to work on the eyes :)

      I went from pencil to Ink pens! I got really bored with me erasing every tiny thing I thought looked wrong, So I stopped drawing for a time. until I started to draw with ink pens (Thanks to Inktober that got me interested) It felt easier in some weird way, because I couldn't rubb away the mistakes, so I got more confident that "I can actually do this!" instead of "That looked bad! Just rubb it away!" The only time I use pencils is when I am sketching really lightly! =)
      I often draw nature like trees stones mountains (landscapes) and houses

      Know the feeling but I would suggest to draw as many hands as you can in weird position. Fist, pointing finger, grabbing beer, rolling cigarets... Its not that hard and I didn't have any experience with drawing people or took a lesson or watched tutorial nothing. Take a A3 paper and draw big :D thats how you learn it

  • @Smile-lo7rx
    @Smile-lo7rx 7 ปีที่แล้ว +245

    I absolutely love ur style. It's so cartoonish yet charming, and it's different from other people's art. It is good to be able to draw with every photographic detail, but it can as well get boring as there is such a lot of artists doing that and even though their art is just beautiful and stunning and all that, I much prefer it when people have their own style that makes them different, even if the proportions of the face are not quite correct ( depends on what we call correct :3)

    • @LDXReal
      @LDXReal 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Smile :) photorealism is quite impressive and can be boring, but for me i add realistic elements to my style. The characters have proper human proportions except for their faces. The noses are longer, mouths are smaller and the eyes are oval shaped. Like a squished up 0 (zero). Thats basically it, besides the fingers being sharper and clawlike, and a few characters having horse bent legs. Lavender towne' style differs from mine of course but hers IS really good.

  • @dragon1651
    @dragon1651 8 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I agree with the "copying" of art styles, as in go for it! Everyone starts somewhere (for me it was crudely drawn anime characters) and as I got older, I started to compare my art to others, not in a bad way, but to see what I might've been missing anatomically or coloring wise and boy did it help. Eventually I kinda jumped on the bandwagon of the SU art style, but it turned into my own thing and to this very day I'm still on the journey towards finding my own art style. So if you're having trouble finding what yours is, don't be scared. Experiment! Try things outside the box! Even that silly little doodle you drew on one of the corners of homework or something can help! And great video Lavender! :D

      Yes, don't listen to them! My style USED TO be like perfectly proportional characters BUT their eyes and mouths were bigger and more expressive. People were calling my style ugly all the time at school, later when I tried to find a publisher and so on. This devastated me so much that I gave up on it. Now I draw anime and want to kill myself. Now when I look at those old drawings I see a style that was MINE that was a part of me and it was ruined because I was an idiot. Don't listen to other people. They are not you and they cannot tell you how to draw in your style!

I finally tried to do an in-between and it was perfect for me! I keep realistic proportions but I do a cartoony face and sometimes legs depending on what I'm drawing! Explore different styles and see which one appeals to you the most.

      sailor mooo-roblox and stuff Try using a light box to help trace it. Once you trace it a couple times, your fingers and brain develop the muscle memory and it's easier to copy it.
      Or maybe try drawing the same thing in a different style. When I first tried to draw animatronics, I drew them EXACTLY how they looked and came out awful. Then I developed my own style for them and now I've perfected it.
      Just play around with it a bit, you'll figure it out eventually

      Inshirah Ali Do you always listen to you teachers when they discuss new lessons? If you are not such of an angel student... Maybe you should try what I always do:
      Step 1: Look at your teacher... pretending you're listening.
      Step 2: Take out your notes... and pens... and pencils...
      Step 3: Find a blank page/space
      Step 4: DOODLE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!
      That way you can practice and improve your drawing skills...
      Omg... wait... Mr.Teacher is going near us...
      Step 5: Look at your teacher again... pretending you're listening and interested in the lesson. You might as well turn in the other page with no doodles... and write some words that he keeps on saying...
      But I don't recommend this if you don't like failing grades...
      I have failing grades... so... yeah... I got used to it XD
      And if you're not a student anymore...
      FIND SOME FREE TIME TO PRACTICE YOUR DRAWING...
      Hope it helped!

    you've always been one of my favorite artists. I recently refound you by complete coincidence. I used to read your old comic Coleslaw religiously. I saw a video on here and I was in love with the style, then I realised it was you haha. Sorry, long story short to figure out my style I was inspire by a lot of different web artists and as I continued to draw I just found where my style was. So you've helped me for a long time and I really admire you and your art still.

    • @reic2566

      I feel the same way I have a generic art style but it changes on the character. Some times my eyes are sharp and then sometimes they and round and simple but then the body is sometimes changed so I don’t really know my art style

    I copied alot of garfield too back then. And I made this huge drawing of garfield for my art class, and they had my drawing displayed for an event. After the event my mom wanted the piece back so she could hang it at home. I was running to my teacher's office to fetch the piece when I saw him throwing it in the garbage so yeh :/
    I stopped drawing garfield ever since.

    The way that I found my art style is by just playing your videos and drawing. Not even looking at the screen,just listening to your voice and drawing
    Since I've been watching you for kinda long time I got used to your art style and I always loved it, especially that way you draw hair
    So when I listened tp your voice I just kinda combined my idea with a way that you draw some things
