Hi Wei, I am new to art. I have started practicing these exercises yesterday. I have no natural ability to draw, that is why I never really got into it. I am amazed at my progress in drawing simple shapes, in such a short time. I wish that I had known about these exercises sooner. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and hard work with us. Do you have anymore KZread chanels?

I went to a State college and really didn't learn much other than giving me the time to draw. The key is practice, the more you do it, the better you get.

Extremely Helpful and well explained. Thank you Sir!

hello! i love this one and "how to draw better lines". i have mentally put them together as my homework. you see, every day i make myself put pencil to paper. i am new at art and i figure i should work at it every day. i also realize though that i need to give myself "homework" where after each session i do specific things to generally improve my hand coordination. between this and the "how to draw better lines" i have some pretty great homework. i encourage you to create more of these sort of homework lessons and create a playlist for them. i am currently following a lot of artists and none of them have any sort of homework type videos. so i really appreciate these two you have. note that these are different from the "how to be a better artist" type work because these aren't tips and tricks. these are "do this 1000 times to be better" kind of stuff, imho.

I've just been getting into graphite drawing, thanks for these great videos!

Hello, Wei. Thanks for nice tutorial :-) I have a question. When you draw, what about the angle of paper? Some people just put on the desk, and draw. While other people put paper on the easel, so they tilt the paper like 80 degree. Which one do you recommend for beginner? Why they tilt the paper at all?

That is important....good to know, Thanks

Hey Wei, great advice! I'm curious about one thing though: how would one go about drawing a very long curve as a final line? For example, a long strand of hair, or the outline of a body. I'm getting a lot better at drawing accurate curves for the sketch, but once I get to drawing in the actual linework I tend to make mistakes left and right

@ArtofWeiHo

2 жыл бұрын

You'll need to draw the long curve as a series of connecting smaller curves. We're not robots so we can't draw that. But more importantly, I think, is to FORGET about the perfect curve. Sketchy lines are just great, and you'll learn more about drawing with that then the clean lines.
