I have not done continuous line drawing before. So much fun! I'm 73 years old and promised myself to learn a new skill in 2024. I decided on watercolor, then was inspired to start a journal after watching several of your TH-cam offerings. This series is just what I needed to begin, lessening the fear of the clean, blank, page!
This was my first time trying continuous line drawing (also at 73) and I enjoyed doing it. Using a pen instead of a pencil does help to slow me down and try for better detail of the frame.
Thank you so much Danny. I'm your student from India. I am undergoing some mental health issues and clinical depression these days. And your videos really help me to move on. They are really therapeutic. Drawing feels therapeutic. Please continue this series. We are grateful for your effort. All the best.
Thank you for making this more accessible. I'm not good at drawing, and I've taken college intro-level courses, paid scads of money for online classes from "professional artists", I've tried the works. But your videos make this process NOT SCARY! You make me really believe that it's ok to make mistakes, and, more importantly, you make me believe that I can do this! Thank you so much!!
I picked up drawing again when I turned 50. (I’m 57 now)I too needed an outlet that made me HAPPY! I took art classes in middle school and high school but never felt “good enough”. I decided to teach myself to watercolor! I turned to TH-cam for help and inspiration. I found you and various other artist. I am now a more experienced artist. But this class is helping me with basic lines and perspective. Learning to do something another way. I now sketch with my watercolor paintings and I know will this class will help me improve. My hand was cramping on this exercise though!😵💫👩🏻🎨
I've always believed that people are born with the talent for drawing, and for as long as I can remember, I've tried different courses and tools but never stuck with them You promised me that one day, I'd be able to say I can draw, and that drawing is a skill you can learn like any other I hope to be the example that proves this 🙏 I've kept all my drawings from the start just to see the progress This time, I really believe I’ll stick with it because your teaching style is unique and fun I trust your method because I can already see the results 🚀
53 years here... I've almost always drawn in some form, and I even took some mail-order courses when I was a teenager (I really like comics and manga), but now I wanted to start again from scratch, learn new things, techniques, and above all, start to relax while drawing, without worrying too much about showing my drawings to others (well, I always liked to "show off", but now I'm learning to do things for myself and not so much for others), I don't know if you understand what I just wrote (my first language is Spanish), greetings from Argentina!
Hello Danny, I really enjoyed the first video and I will be using these videos throughout my Journey. I'm a 44 year old Army Vet so I can relate to starting late but in the same token its never to late to start something new. Should be fun.
This was my first time trying to draw with a continuous line-challenging and so much fun! The result possesses such character that is naturally achieved by simply completing the exercise. Feels like a drawing puzzle or maze that I’m figuring out as I go. I really like this approach! I drew when I was in elementary school but didn’t keep up with it so I feel I’m essentially starting from scratch. Your invitations and gentle encouragement in your videos have been welcomed support in my drawing journey. Thank you!
I watched many videos about continuous line techniques as i am a beginner with this but i can never get it until i crosses your video. Thankfully i successfully draw some pieces . I am so happy and this really gives me hope that i can improve in the future ❤thanks a lot ❤for someone think its easy to draw these look like easy objects, i can never draw them before. I cant believe i will Able to draw them now
I'm 66. I did this in 6th or 9th grade art class. I had the same art teacher in both grades! We drew the person sitting across from us in one continuous line. It will be great to try this technique again. I like the car driving metaphor.
I drew what you had on the screen. My scissors turned out pretty good, my pen looked like a wild child drew it and my clip was ok. I'll put it down today and then rewatch this tomorrow and do another attempt. I find when I'm learning a new skill if I put it down for a day and then come back I improve. I have a goal, I want to be able to produce my own patterns for my embroidery that are originals.
Thank you so much for these lessons Danny I am 66, have always enjoyed drawing but never had confidence in my own ability. You are helping me find the confidence I need to keep on trying and showing me that I dont have to prove myself to anyone else. Thank you!
I’m so glad I rediscovered you! I taught myself to draw in my late 40’s, played, then abandoned my art in my 50’s, now that I am 60, I feel like I’m in a time of my life where I’m ready to be a student again. You are amazing! I look forward to diving into your channel and this series. ❤
I’ve Always wanted to try drawing. I always thought that my drawings looked bad, but sometimes I impress myself, with a visual reference. Finding your channel has made me realize that it’s not as bad as it seems, that being getting into the seemingly intimidating concept of drawing. I will do your exercises whenever I find free time, and it seems both relaxing, and beneficial. Thank you for beginning this journey for me. Definitely Gonna Subscribe And Stay Tuned For Your New Videos. 👍✌️🙌
Great practice. I drew my left hand with right hand and I drew my right hand with my left hand - it was so interesting to see how different the drawings came out as my right hand is my dominent hand.
After going to school for art to be so perfecting and to methodically render what I saw, I realized I didn’t have my own style. I was just copying things. I am looking to create my own expressive style and I love this video series. Thank you
I respect this man!! This is the first time I came around his videos but if he has experience of 20+ years, it takes a hell lot of genius to make mistakes unintentionally your muscle memory have overcome. The way he is teaching is fab! ❤️
I’m loving this already, Danny! You’re a great teacher (but I already new that from “Draw w/Me” and more!😲👍🏼.) Nurturing creativity spreads goodness! I’m psyched to continue these and shall…right…NoW!
Mistakes can just be redrawn, right on the same page. This is seen even in drawings of masters. Many contour lines for one area can be done, like replaying a phrase on a musical instrument to get it right, without expecting to avoid all mistakes. Nice pep talks
I had a question.. In many videos i see that i have to hold the pen differently (like from the back of the pen) which seems annoying to me and another step to practice is it really necessary..?
This practice of drawing the edges is a little bit challenging, should I proceed to the third video or wait until I have made a real progress redarign this practice?
Thank you so much for putting these videos out it’s exactly what I’ve been looking and hoping for someone to hold my hand through the process, doing this New Year’s Eve and loving it🫶 Happy New Year to you and the Sketch Book Skool team🫶🥳

You are a hero!

I'm in the same position re watercolour and the sketch journal and the fear of the blank page. I'm 8 years younger, though.
Did all with you, but not very perfect. Will try again. Thanks 🙏
This exercise was HARD. I'm looking forward to the rest of the video exercises in this series.
Thank you so much Danny. I'm your student from India. I am undergoing some mental health issues and clinical depression these days. And your videos really help me to move on.

I hope drawing helps you heal!

I just found this playlist. I cannot express how happy these videos make me. You’re so encouraging thank you
Seriously enjoying this. I always envied folks that could draw ,I'm 82 not to old to learn. I need more practice with scale.

My favorite way to sketch! Always more interesting to the eye than perfect lines.
So fun to learn with you. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you very much, Danny! You and Your work have changed my life!!❤ Thank you very much from a Spanish woman leaving in Germany
Wow, thank you!
Thanks ! 72 yrs old. Fun lesson.
You bet!
Thank you so much for these lessons Danny I am 66, have always enjoyed drawing but never had confidence in my own ability. You are helping me find the confidence I need to keep on trying and showing me that I dont have to prove myself to anyone else. Thank you!
You are very welcome
That was really fun. It went better than I thought it would, I drew a little pitcher that holds my paint brushes. It was an interesting result!
Supercool that I found you.... I love art for more than 50 years now and start with you to learn drawing with 59.... yeah, done it.
I’m so glad I rediscovered you! I taught myself to draw in my late 40’s, played, then abandoned my art in my 50’s, now that I am 60, I feel like I’m in a time of my life where I’m ready to be a student again. You are amazing! I look forward to diving into your channel and this series. ❤

Thanks so much Danny. I loved doing this, and for the first time I feel like I might actually be able to draw well too.

It was like when I had a beaded bracelet I didn't finish. Last night it felt good when I could get it finished.
Grazie mille! Thank you from Italy

Great!
I thought I hated continuous line drawing, but I was wrong. 😁
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
❤❤
Thank you very much for this video, i didn't draw the exercise properly.
And it was quite relaxing
Salaam.
I had a question.. In many videos i see that i have to hold the pen differently (like from the back of the pen) which seems annoying to me and another step to practice is it really necessary..?
Uh no as far as I’m concerned. Hold it like a pen.
@@SketchBookSkoolhow many times/hours to practice?
This practice of drawing the edges is a little bit challenging, should I proceed to the third video or wait until I have made a real progress redarign this practice?
The more you work on each exercise, the more confident you’ll be. You can’t binge your way to drawing!
is it possible to fail this coz i think i just did
It is not.
Not as hard as I thought it would be.
No offense, but this is more of a beginner level than i thought
Thank you so much for putting these videos out it’s exactly what I’ve been looking and hoping for someone to hold my hand through the process, doing this New Year’s Eve and loving it🫶 Happy New Year to you and the Sketch Book Skool team🫶🥳
