  • Hands are intimidating to draw, especially from imagination. Constructing it with simple forms makes it WAY easier. Watch this lesson to learn the process! Then sign up for premium to learn how to shade and add details from imagination - proko.com/anatomy.
    I’ve poured all my experience into this hand lesson series. I’ll teach you hands in 4 parts… Part 1 explained the muscles of the hand and how to draw them. Part 2 taught you all the surface details, like fingernails, skin folds, and fat pads. For this lesson, Part 3, I’ll show you a process for drawing hands from reference or from your imagination. It’s all based on the previous lessons and will help you with inventing detailed dynamic hands. Part 4 is a treat: there’s 6 drawing demos, teaching you how to draw everything from relaxed poses to clenched fists. I even talk about foreshortening! If you want to get this entire lesson with additional information on shading and details, sign up for the premium course at proko.com/anatomy.

    to draw from imagination "not only hands but the whole body or just a part of it" you need to study from life as much as you can, for me i can't go into a workshop for figure drawing because they cost a lot, and drawing from reference image is good but not enough, this is really tricky situation don't you think guys?

    • @CZMajky
      @CZMajky 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Drawing from life if overrated meme, knowledge of perspective, form, construction, gesture and anatomy is what you need to be able to draw from imagination and that can be learned from books/videos and practiced just fine with photos.

    i've been frustrated with drawing ever since I knew that i was drawing inaccurate proportion all the time. it didn't matter to me because of how satisfied i am with my incorrect work simply because they looked good. i came across your channel and ever since then, i've been trying to draw more accurately and correctly but im frustrated because i can't do it right. drawing used to be my past time but now.. thinking that I've been sketching wrong the whole time, makes me really sad that im not gonna do like you do or what other artist do. i fear mistakes, i fear blank papers and I fear that i'll never be skilled enough to draw accurately.
