  • @lisaradtke5669

    I know that it may sound like flattery, but as an artist from the moment you opened the sketchbook I was impressed! Even your early “bad” sketches showed me you had a good beginning understanding of proportion and form, something that can take new artists years to master. Keep practicing using references and learn your fundamentals, and I think your ability will skyrocket! Art is a lifelong journey, and even the masters can always learn, so don’t get discouraged.

ANYONE CAN COOK except in this case its !!anyone can draw!! i hope you continue drawing, its frustrating but rewarding at the same time. and to anyone else wanting to learn to draw: DO IT !!!! you're gonna be great. at first you may think its pointless, but if you ever feel like that, take a step back and draw something silly and fun. don't focus too much on being perfect, and take breaks. sometimes staring at your art for too long can make you think everything is terrible lol but you just need to come back to it at a later time and realize its not that bad. be kind to yourself. give yourself the same treatment you would to others

Because basics are not just the "noob" part of drawing, they're the foundation that everything else is built on! So they're actually the most important, and that's why anyone can start drawing, practice the basics and learn how to draw :) Sadly a lot of people get lost in the details, which is what can make them feel like they're not improving, because the basics are actually way more important!

    So I took it to my own hands and said "If i can't print them then I'll draw them" and went on a months straight journey drawing BTS members. I improved quite fast ngl, I guess it's cause I enjoyed the process and drew every single day.
    Eventually I started experimenting with different art mediums, from portrait sketching to watercolor to pastels. I tried anatomy sketching and nude sketches. I also started experimenting with different art styles. I used to copy different artists' drawings to learn as well.
    It's overwhelming in the beginning, especially when you start to find your very own art style. But I think that's the beauty of it, you experiment and go thru different phases.

    Damn this was me 3 years ago when i tried to rekindle my passion for drawing, it was hard to even come to enjoy drawing for the first month or two and at the beginning i forced myself to draw at least once a week (that didnt happen), but then it went from once a week to twice, then to 3 times and 6 months ago i saw myself drawing everyday to the point where now i am doing it every chance i get, wether it be in a lecture hall or in the middle of the living room having a conversation.
    If you are looking to nurture a passion whatever it may be, it doesnt have to be art, you should aim at setting goals for yourself, kind of like daily repeating quests, for me i started 3 years ago by simply collecting a bunch of artists off the internet that i liked and i wanted to learn things from and just copied them, at the beginning i collected 88 artists and before i realized it i had over 100 just by simply finding new ones every now and then, i also set a goal for .yself to fill an entire book with drawing, i would take an artist and pick 6-8 drawings that i like and fit them all in a page and try to make it look like a poster.
    Just a week ago i had finally filled my book that was over 100 pages, and i have 24 artists left, i have gotten into digital art as well and its a pain, it feels like when i first started drawing and i just didnt like my art, but imma keep going until i start liking it, i even made a pixiv account to upload my digital art in order to force myself to draw on it 😂😂

      HOW TO DRAW. - (Fridays With PewDiePie - Part 82) - 9 years ago.
      Draw Me Challenge - 8 years ago.
      "FIXING" FANART (Pewdiepie Photoshop) - 7 years ago.
      HOW TO DRAW HOT GIRL! - 7 years ago. (he was prowling anime artstyle tutorials).
      DRAWING TOGETHER WITH FANS! - (Fridays With PewDiePie - Part 103) - 7 years ago.
      DRAWING UA-camRS - 6 years ago.
      PLEASE BUY THIS! - 6 years. (he is looking for drawing in video games).
      Fixing Sonic the Hedgehog - 4 years ago. (he sold his doodle on Ebay for 13 MILLION DOLLARS).
      He claims to not know how to draw, but he already developed the dexterity from doodling for more than a decade. In this video he just lowered his goal of drawing detalied anime characters, to doing cartoon manga characters. He has said countless times how really wants to draw manga and how much a manga fan he is. He knows he can get millions by selling this doodles too.

    There's so much I would love to write, but then I'd be writing a book. But, one of the biggest things about being an artist (imo) is there will be days when you just think your art is gas from an ass. Like, wtf did I draw? And other days you can't draw shit even when you want to. But, taking a step back and coming back to the drawing to see it wasn't bad is nice. Another thing is that you'll always be your worst critic. You can have all the experience in the world, all the people telling you how amazing your art looks... and it's not good enough for you. When it is. It's amazing to see Felix's progress like this. It's impressive. So don't be too hard on yourself, I know when I started, it was straight-up booty cheeks.

    I've always wanted to learn drawing and sometimes I started but every time I would give up because of stress, expectations, comparing myself with others, slow progress etc. Somebody may think:" what's so hard? Just take pencil and draw." But every time it was realli challenging to take pencil in hand . I drew really really slow afraid that my painting would come out bad. If I drew something nice I would say it's just luck. This video strongly motivated me. I decided to do it myself and here I am-it's evening of 31 day. Everyday I drew in general for 1/ 2 hours. During this month I've learned more than through all past years. Not very much actually but now I understand that it's okay-learning art is hard and it may take lots of time. I think people usually get frustrated exactly because of this-they think that something is easier than it is and then start to think that problem lies in them. But progress in skills isn't the most important thing I've achieved. During this challenge I overcame my fears and psychological barriers. Sometimes I hear their "whisper" and I know that it's a long way to go in order to fully get rid of them if it's possible at all. But I've already done a big step on this road and drawing is not something stressful anymore, I learned to get more enjoyment from it and I'm gonna continue to draw.
