Whats the last thing you drank? like this video and leave a comment!

if arts not fun why are you doing it?

if you said “because i want a career”. we all know artists get bad pay. even if its good pay you wont get much time to yourself. if you have fun its easy to do this. but if you dont like doing art its alot harder.

Great video, thank you! I am terrified of drawing backgrounds as well, but I really want to learn. So, you are not alone! lol!

You got sick traps

Backgrounds are a whole other body of work to be studied

I meant literally

Hold on , is your bgm is naruto soundtrack idkk im not sure

Best tutorial

As much as I don’t want to learn anatomy, I need to learn the basics of it to achieve the art-style I want. But I keep forgetting how important poses are.

god finally i found the exact video that i want i've been struggling for months it was exhausted

Drawing is digital pad is easy,
Trying Drawing them in paper manually

I'm the exact same way I draw the main thing and leave the background blank because I'm not good at it and I'm afraid that it'll make the main drawing look bad

listen Muhammed, i am an artist, you are an artist, let's make a piece of art 💍

thank you 🤍

Thank you for this. I've been wanting to draw and, my friend/tutor told me to just "jump right into it" so I can build my portfolio. But I feel like I need more practice before I start creating more finished works! Thanks a lot :)

the most annoying part is the rendering, no one talks about it to the point you find no videos that teaches rendering clothes or more anime style skin

I would study anatomy but I don't know how to break down the human form into shapes in a way that actually helps me. I can break any form down into shapes perfectly, and it looks nice... but I can't draw and bend the shapes when I don't have a direct reference. I never have been able to take the pieces and put them together on my own, which is where I'm struggling.

Thanks for telling me about the pose website. It's going to make art better.

Ahh this is so helpful. I used to draw everyday but then I became disabled and fell into a suicidal depression and stopped drawing for a few years. I'm getting back into it now because it's something that I'm so passionate about, but I felt overwhelmed knowing where to even start. I've been really embarrassed seeing everyone my age drawing at a level I should already be at. When I tried to start all I could find were those dumb step-by-step tutorials. I'm so happy I found this video that clearly maps out what I need. Thank you thank you!!

i recommend drawing straight lines and round shapes for practice (i started drawing simple 2 illustrations of buses and ships) for about 3 days non stop, then i started tracing and copying (these are the illustrations you see yourself doing for the forseeable future as he mentions above) , studied poses for a week anatomy and lastly perspective ..... i still considet myself an average though still need to learn color theory and application

“Understand the rules before you start to bend them”

Your segway into the skillshare promo is a thing of genius.

man deserve milions of followers

I NEED to practice backgrounds, but my stupid smooth brain just can't grasp it...

Thank you so much for sharing these knowledge with us thank you so much 🙏🏻

Backgrounds are tricky.

Who is Marko Djordjević?

Not a beginner but I never had a proper art class that effectively taught me so I feel like a beginner with a touch of flair. These tips seem really helpful. People who improve quickly that I've met (like insane improvement in even just a year) never give any useful tips. Saying "oh i just practiced" PRACTICED WHAT? Thank you for this video

Wow this was actually really helpful

Wow, what a great idea using sports shots to work on. I suppose dancers would be good too. Foreshortening is something I am having difficulty with myself.

Everyone learns differently. Some people can just focus on one thing and practise it to get better, some people need to start with the fundamentals or to start with simply tracing. I found over the years I couldn't stick with one topic and draw it over and over and began turning my sketchbook into a comic. Now while not the smartest thing for most people to do with a sketchbook, it worked for me because it forces me to draw MANY different things that typically I'd avoid if I was choosing to focus on one thing at a time. Find what works and motivates you. Comics for me also mean I can focus on story telling, pacing and character visual expression on top of the other stuff I'm terrified of drawing over and over. Again, this works for me as motivation to dive into drawing different things I would normally avoid like backgrounds, machinery, perspective ect... more difficult things that I struggle with and this way I can also see where I am impoving over time and where we aren't alot easier than I would drawing one thing over and over.

Again find what works for you and keeps you interested and motivated. That's the key to improving any skill you want to learn.

I am okay at anatomy, but my ability to draw different poses is a little limited, so I might want to study poses.

When I started drawing no one told me to learn anatomy they just told me to learn proportions...so I am very bad at drawing muscle thick and all of that and now I have no idea how to start learning anatomy, like where do I start with anatomy?

Thank you. I like how sincere and clear your presentation is

i tried to draw a mountain last night. It turned out pretty horrible so i just did the gaussian blur thing and moved onto a new piece lol. I never really draw backgrounds because i just dont feel like it and i find it slightly boring compared to drawing people ;-{ maybe i just need to try to draw backgrounds more but still i have a hard time forcing myself to draw stuff i dont feel like drawing

So yes i dont like backgrounds either

When i see a photo and try to draw
I always messed up my drawing

some great knowledge here, and providing us with links and subscriptions to help. I always skip 1 and 2, color is a massive issue for me since I have eye problems it's a terrible handicap for my progression.. back to basics

Dude ! Your content is so great and well build. You have good advices.
But man, your intonation ! It seems like you are so bored or asleep. I make it difficult to focus which is a shame because what you are saying is actually very interesting ! If you had a little more dynamism that would be a perfect video

You inspired me to draw and study more, gratefulness for you, beautiful man.

Thanks for the tips

Thanks!!!!

Thanks for the information. I used to paint and draw, but I stopped doing it for a long time, and I'm feeling lost and without creativity, but I want to get back to this. Your video made me feel inspire!

p.S: I'm not good at English, but I try it haha

The thing is idk what to draw when I sit down and want to draw I just look at the paper and can’t think of anything I want to draw and when I find something i want to draw I just get bored of it and i just don’t know what to do so I just go and draw random things and I don’t have any Style or nothing and idk I just draw random things does that make me better at drawing…? And if ur wondering the random things I draw is like flowers dragons and anime characters and like guns and other stuff and mind you it’s not In one style it is like realistic or cartoony etc. OH and also I just don’t stick with one thing I just can’t keep on drawing the same thing over and over SO yea that’s just another reason… ps I’m so sorry this is a lot and I don’t expect someone to have a answer

Sir, pls can you make a video of you drawing random characters?

I have some skill. But im severely out of practice and get overwhelmed trying to decide what to focus on. Thank you for this.
