    I am a father of two children, the youngest is now 4 years old and she asked me to draw a princess. Well, that became the legendary stick man with long hair. Now a year behind, more and less practiced drawing. Absolutely, this is the best tutorial video I've seen for a beginner.

    Just when the thumbnail came to my TH-cam algorithm, I knew that you are a brilliantly consummate artist. Your line quality, dynamis and other elements are on far another level comparable to Jeff Watts!!!

    Very difficult to find original and honest instructions, In the age of clickbaits and TH-cam algorithms making it hard to find genuine content. I have been following Brent from old Skillshare, and actually learned to draw this technique from him.

      Another tip I recommend is to never stop being curious and observant. I've spent years building up a huge catalogue of reference materials, photographs and observations into several journals, you could even put together a digital journal and fill it with things you find on Google images and Pinterest for example. With these I can refer to them when I'm planning out my next project and comes in very handy when I'm going through a creative block which happens quite often.

    A relatable free versed poem for learners:
    I'm not a beginner anymore
    I do know the basics
    Yet not a master for sure
    Is there a trick to the core?
    I'm somewhat intermediate
    Entangled in the web
    Hastle and commotion in the head
    Is there a way to remediate?
    Someday, I'd be a master
    There are ways, paths to discover
    Connecting the fragments
    And becoming a superstar.
    Grandmaster could be a fiction
    Millions n' billions could be a fantacy
    Yet it may come true with direction
    And touch the peak by being an artisan
    Note: an artisan is someone who prepares something with his/her skill

    Not to be persnickety, but .... is the way you hold your pencil (underhanded) in the demos just to keep your hand out of the camera's way or do you naturally hold it that way all the time?

    the biggest pain in the balls is when you draw a dark firm line and you've made grooves in the paper that, once the line is erased, your bloody pencil will obviously fall into the next time you're going over the area. So annoying!

    • @magicalmomo9987
      @magicalmomo9987 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I used to do this but I've learned you have to make lighter quick strokes or use a soft pencil that makes darker lines so you don't have to press that hard. Making those grooves makes it harder to erase mistakes too. I'd highly recommend practicing lighter strokes! Saves so many artworks and paper. I still sometimes draw a little too hard but I've gotten a lot better about it 😭

  • @chessshyrecat

    Yes, but you are missing a huge chunk of drawing basics. Which is why a lot of your drawings still look flat, even if you shade them.

      NOTHING in his drawings looks flat.

      @@PietroSiciliano-p4n Compare his work to Kim Jung Gi, Glenn Vilppu, Joshua Jacobo, Miles Yoshida, Karl Kopinski, Rubens or Michelangelo(to all of them you can even find videos on youtube), just to name a few. I could name more . To really show how it flattens, I'd need to do a draw over. Anyway. If you put these artists side by side to his rhino and you take the time to really compare and still don't see how what he is doing looks more flat, then I'd be very surprised.

    • @PietroSiciliano-p4n
      @PietroSiciliano-p4n 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ⁠@@chessshyrecatI’m familiar with some of the artists you’ve mentioned, especially the older Masters, and although I can see varying levels of dimensionality between their renders, and also within a given artist’s drawings, I still find that Brent achieves sufficient volume in most of his drawings. With respects to the rhinoceros drawing in this video, a somewhat limited range in values could have resulted in a “flatter” render, but I don’t find that diminishes the drawing’s overall appeal. However, I am curious to know which drawing basics you deem Brent has missed in his instruction - would you care to elaborate about that?

    • @neuroticnation144
      @neuroticnation144 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    • @chessshyrecat
      @chessshyrecat 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@PietroSiciliano-p4nMore values doesn't automatically translate to a more dimensional drawing. You can look at Holbein for this. His values describing the form are extremly subtle, but perfectly describe the head in a very dimensional way. You can make a 2 value drawing and create more dimensionality than he creates in most of his drawing. He is missing the whole part about thinking dimensionally, perspective and construction. Like he explains in the trailer, everything is a 2d shape for him and he breaks everything up into 2d shapes. He is not thinking 3d but 2d when drawing. His rhino is a good example. It is very likely drawn from a photo reference and their were probably many different light sources, and he just tried copying 2d shapes and values without understanding. This results in huge contrasts and makes it look like cut outs. Again, it is hard to put it in words, easier to demonstrate on the drawing. From what I'm perceiving he could also not redraw the rhino from a different angle.
      Anyway, it seems like he learned from a contemporary art academy that usually promotes this kind of 2d thinking drawing. Which is different from the renaissance tradition of drawing and from what I remember was created in the 19th century. If he is happy with the results, that is fine. I have a clear preference in how I approach drawing and prefer the one that is in the renaissance tradition and consider it to be surperior and less limiting. Like I said, to really explain it I'd need to demonstrate the difference. This is not something to be solved in a youtube comment.
