  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2024
  • In Part 4 of this Drawing for Beginners course, we cover how to draw what you see by first looking at the science of drawing and why drawing accurately can be difficult. I then walk through simple setup changes and a drawing technique that show you how to draw anything you see, regardless of the subject.

      Definitely, Luke. You can even build off of the simple shapes and use 3D shapes like cubes, cones, etc. if you want to add guides that provide more depth. This is a little more advanced, which is why I left it out.

    what did you mean when you said ", what level of drawing each person is at? by the way you are bad @ss. i like your style. But at age 47 i am still finding my style of drawing. i have been drawing since i can remember. Its hard for me to blend color. i dont know if i have a touch of color blindness. But i am trying. When growing up. Doctors said there was some thing wrong with my hands. My goal is to become pro. My goal is to learn how to draw hyperrealism. i struggle with reaching my goal. i draw every day.

    • @RTIFEX
      @RTIFEX  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Mainly if you consider yourself a beginner or more advanced. The 2 big things to know about hyperrealism are to go big and take your time. Large paper/canvases will help you fit in lots of details and possibly help you with your hand condition. It will also, naturally, take longer to finish art of this size, and the extra time spent focusing on the little things will make it that much more realistic. Good luck!
