    Hi, it's Ethan again and welcome back to the 3rd video in this lesson series on figure drawing.
    If you are just joining us and missed the previous 2 videos, please be sure to watch them now and then come back to this one.
    Just click on the link below to watch them...
    Lesson 1: • Figure Drawing Lessons...
    Lesson 2: • Figure Drawing Lessons...
    In the last video, we covered the basics of human proportion and learned to construct a human stick figure from scratch.
    Now it's time to take it one step further and learn about perspective. Perspective is basically the art of making 2 dimensional drawings look 3 dimensional.
    And it's extremely important in figure drawing because as soon as you want to draw a figure in any other position than the standard front view, you need to understand how perspective will change that way that figure look. Otherwise, your drawings will never look realistic.
    For example, here's a drawing of a brick without the use of perspective.
    I looks flat and very uninteresting.
    Now, here's the same brick drawn with the use of perspective.
    It looks much more realistic and fun to look at. That's how much of a difference a little bit of perspective can make.
    Now, perspective can be a very complex subject so we won't be able to cover everything in this short video. But I will try to do my best to give you a crash course and teach you the most important elements that will make the biggest difference to your drawing.
    Then, we'll go through a step-by-step practical exercise and show you how to draw your first 3 dimensional figure.
    Ok, let's begin.
    [PLEASE REFER TO THE VIDEO ABOVE FOR STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS]
    So now that you know the basic rules of perspective, you'll be able to transfer this knowledge into your figure drawing to create more dynamic and interesting work.
    Which is exactly what we are going to do in tomorrow's lesson. I'm going to show you step-by-step how to apply what you just learn to draw a 3 dimensional human figure in perspective.

      Do not test the Lord your God, and to believe in only what you see by science is ignorant because you can't. It is not illogical to believe in a timeless and imaterial cause that created the universe. I find that to be more scientific than the big bang theory becauss the big bang theory believes something came from nothing for no reason. But the cause would have to be timeless cause because it was before time itself.

    • @josephchauvin1973

      Bill Gates​

    • @josephchauvin1973
      @josephchauvin1973 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Bill Gates if you were blind, would you believe in anything? A logical man can believe things that they cant see. You assume that there are not any dinosaurs on the planet without having been to every single place on earth to make sure its not there. The big bang theory is impossible because something cant come from nothing, every living thing has a cause as well as everything thing. I'm not saying that because the big bang is hard to believe then there is a god, i'm saying that there is evidence (which is what you wanted) towards a immaterial and timeless cause. Which is what we know as god. I'm not attacking you i'm having a discussion on the topic to resolve an issue.

    I like how you teach the principals of drawing, so that we can eventually apply this to drawings besides the human figure. Most of the other tutorials just show you specifically how to draw something or how to shade something for a specific example, but not how to shade in general.

  • @Hotshotter3000
    @Hotshotter3000 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I've been drawing for years, but my problem is being unable to retain the stuff I learn. Since there were times in which I felt that, if I just continued, I'd be a pretty good pencil artist and be able to draw stuff from imagination. Only problem is, I often get caught up with other things and it's weeks or more than a month before I return to my stuff, and by that time I forget what I do. Your videos are a major help since they're easier to follow and more clear than some books. At any rate, I'm hitting the books as I do this as well. I'm sure you've read the stuff by Andrew Loomis.

      He did say it backwards, but you are correct.

    • @vivid_swatch2091
      @vivid_swatch2091 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Actually, I believe he meant if the person sitting down is looking straight (as in, their eye level). What you're saying would apply if the person sitting down was looking at an upward angle.

    I'm a complete beginner to art and have been playing around with watercolours, which I love, but have realised if I want to improve my drawing I need to understand perspective. Thank you so much for your lessons... I have a stack of boxes with the correct perspective with 3 spheres inside them... love it. However, I am a little confused regarding the spheres! Am I correct in thinking you used the same sized circles for each box, have assumed so. Thanks again, the most comprehensive lessons I have come across so far. x

    the circles/spehers should be smaller on the lower "levels" because they are further from the camera's view point. The biggest one would be one intersecting horizon line..

    When I drew the house, I figured out what I was doing wrong up to now. I was very careful about the major lines being in perspective. It was the little lines, like the eves on the house, I drew them wrong and the drawing looked stupid. I wanted to go back to my way of doing it, but I thought I would try your way and behold, Ii was right. Thanks for that little bit of information, and straightening me out.

    Hi. Thank you for this video.
    I need some clarifications though. So I am using an A4 sheet and I tried this both horizontally and vertically with the vanishing points placed and the ends of the paper. I'd like to know what size is the paper, because I am not able to make my perspective in a proper square like shape. I followed the measurements too but I'm not sure why that's happening. Thanks for your inputs.

    Very useful lesson, thank you very much for sharing it. One question though, should't the bottom circle be larger than the top one? It looks like the top sphere occupies more of the room in the box, while the bottom one doesnt. Appreciate your help. Keep it up!

    • @emmahamilton1514
      @emmahamilton1514 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Is it because we are looking down on the bottom sphere from higher up so we can see more of the space around it? Also unrelated to this there’s some distortion because his piece of paper isn’t straight on to the camera.
