  • I took the sketch from one of my Dad's recent paintings, and created a digital painting in Photoshop. Thought I'd share the process. This one is for you, old man!
    I hope you guys like it, thankyou as always for all the love.

    I've been drawing and painting for as long as I remember, but now when I'm older and finishing my master degree, I have a hard time to find time or energy to draw. I draw a lot in my education since I study architecture, but I feel drained when I sketch a lot for projects. Watching your videos gives me a lot of energy to pick up the pen and start drawing again, so I just wanted to say thank you

      Thanks to you! This is why I do this whole TH-cam thing. I'm very happy when I hear I've given some form of encouragement for others to keep drawing/painting.

    My dad passed away a year ago due to a braintumor, he was a wonderful man and a very good architect. I am now preparing a exposition to honor him and I selected a few architectural works of him which I am making interpretations of in the form of drawings.This video was very touching and inspiring. It makes me emotional. Thanks for your videos Frederick, I like your art and content alot... very authentic and beautiful. To anyone who is making any form of art, please enjoy it as much as you can. x

      A little side-note: I have flip-canvas as one of the touch-menu options in Procreate: so it's just a little slide to the right corner away for me. :-)

    Yeah, it went out beautifully. But, man, why from entire house we have only a front walls here?

    • @gradyfrederickart
      @gradyfrederickart  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks! I'm not sure I fully understand what you mean by having only front walls, but I'll try to answer. If you mean why is the house still relatively straight on towards the viewer, it is simply because I wanted the design to remain recognizable as the original drawing. If I were to turn it too much in perspective, it's possible we could lose the main shapes that make it resemble the original.

    I was always interested in art. Now that I bought a pen display tablet, I am too discouraged to draw. compared to these people, my art is nothing. how can I find the motivation to draw, help!!!

    • @gradyfrederickart
      @gradyfrederickart  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I fully understand the feeling. It can be very discouraging. In the end your best results will come if you find your passion and enjoy the process. I would encourage you to keep practicing if it truly interests you. Do not compare yourself to professionals! Learn the fundamentals, and with consistency you will improve over time, I promise. My motivation comes from being inspired by my favorite books, movies, games etc. and wanting to create and communicate my own ideas through art. It keeps me pushing through the hard times full of self-doubt.
      If you want to, go watch some of my other videos. I talk about the importance of creating art for yourself first and foremost.
      I wish I could be more helpful through a comment, but I wish you the very best in your pursuits. You can do it. Thanks for watching.
