How to Draw Like a Painter

Morgan Weistling returns for part 2 of our video where he draws and paints a portrait of Stan. While he’s working on Stan’s portrait you’ll get to hear his unique approach to creating art. You’ll learn how to merge the techniques of painter and draftsman together so you can draw as if you’re painting and vice versa.

    Even as a beginner this was totally comprehensible! For whatever reason I took to holding the charcoal like a brush but so many of the other Steps and Concepts that Morgan shares have been eye opening. If I can just apply these, I feel like I will be on the road towards my goal as a serious artist. Many thanks for this one! So inspiring!!🙏🏼

    Charcoal is a nice segue into brushwork, since it just plain works better once you use it brushily. Easy to snag it and break it in the paper when you revert to 'writing' style overly precise grip.

    Don’t be overwhelmed. Just try them all and see which ones feel most natural to you. I’m completely confused by measurement systems like Loomis and my work always tends to look weird when I’ve attempted them because line work is not my bag. I tend to see in blocks of color and tone and negative shapes,, so that’s the way I create things.

  • @vishtem33
    @vishtem332 жыл бұрын

    it's nice when someone carefully explains something that is almost what you already do, and the difference is enough to make you think. Personally after drawing in this general manner for some time, I think there is one thing I'd add: canvas size matters, A4 is good, A3 is better. Important because IME a habit of drawing too small is something that naturally goes together with the too-precise 'writing' grip. Making it bigger helps expose flaws in the way you work out placement, shapes and proportion. Less technical.

    So much information packed in to a short video, and so clearly explained. I have had a lightbulb moment while watching Morgan work! It's given me some of the answers as to why I've struggled with (and avoided) painting for so long. The way I approach my drawing practice doesn't translate well to other mediums well, and being overwhelmed with colour. I've always wanted my drawings to look this way, but never quite figured out how to achieve this painterly quality. I'm over halfway there in how I already work, just some tweaks to how I think about drawing. Going away to adjust how I approach drawing first and then I'll revisit painting again!

    As I make the transition from working with graphite to painting I find it so interesting how what is considered a "finished" varies so much. This has more of a rough look, while I've seen other artists show how they perfectly blend all the skin tones together seamlessly. I suppose there is no right or wrong on when you feel you've reached your own version of "finished." It's just a new world for me.
