      Comparison is fine so as long as you dont derive negative feelings from it.
      For example, you can use comparison as, "hmm, what is this artist doing that I can learn from?", then go from there.
      For most things we believe in, its not always so black or white, its our own mind that makes something black or white.

But when I started to turn the comparison into a lesson, it became much more valuable and fascinating. Even though Ive worked in the industry for the last decade, comparison still plagued me up until a few years ago. Using comparison as a tool to learn is so much more gratifying, especially when you are able to execute something you learned from it.

    I actually improved a lot on colouring when I drew manga style black and white and simple shading. I got faster at linework and construction because I could just move on from piece to piece quickly instead of trying to colour them all. This led to me being able to colour better due to the time saved and better knowledge of values from working in black and white all the time.

    I always felt that tracing is a good way of learning for some people, so long as they do it correctly. Im a kinaesthetic learner, I learn through doing, rather than watching or listening. Taking photos and tracing the rough outline of the body shape, then defining and stylising more was a great way for me to learn when I was really focusing on my anatomy.

    • @JohnVanderbeck
      @JohnVanderbeck Рік тому +9

      I think, in my opinion, that there is one huge problem with tracing though and it relates to my biggest difficulty in learning to draw well. Tracing an image means you are already working in 2d. the perspective it already take care of for you. On the other hand, drawing something from the real world, observing it with your own eyes, requires the skills to essentially translate what you see in 3d to a proper 2d sketch. this is by far the hardest thing for me. My brain seems unable to properly parse this information and I constantly find myself wanting to simply draw INTO or OUT OF the paper. Seriously. Not sure if that makes sense but yeah. Tracing isn't going to help you learn to properly SEE something and TRANSLATE it.

    • @zinzolin14
      @zinzolin14 Рік тому +6

      Tracing is fine so long that it's for study and practice reasons, but I think the important thing is to observe and discern why the artist drew the way they did. While you're doing it, think about their shapes, linework, proportions, exaggerations, and how you can apply them to your own work going forward. Otherwise you're simply copying another artist's work and that won't help you improve.

    The only thing that bothers me are INKING brushes with consistent darkness which makes them look clowny if you change the opacity even a bit and their tip is always ugly as hell. That's what was stopping me from doing digital for so much time until I decided to just go with pencil brushes since I'm used to traditional art anyways and now it probably my second month of teaching myself about transfering my knowledge to the screen. This channel has helped me because YOU SIMPLY know how to edit the video so people don't give up in the first 3 seconds and give off the information in a bearable voice without sounding like most tutorials which are disgustingly boring.

    • @cinnamonroosevelt9301
      @cinnamonroosevelt9301 Рік тому +8

      For the inking brush thing, if you're referring to digital art brushes I believe it depends on the type of brush as well as its settings. For example, if you want a brush with a certain texture, shape and edge, that's where the brush type comes from. And for its settings, this may depend on the brush but using opacity by pressure and just overall fiddling with things like that may help you achieve your goal. Afterall, everything in digital art is based off of something in real life, so there should be a way if you're truly interested ^^

It's a myth that I believe in but whenever I watch good artist's tutorials, I don't even improve as much as I do from coming out of my comfort zone(studying references I like from pinterest really helped me progress!) and the greatest critique (to stop copying sailor moon's style) that changed my art. I think you've dismantled a lot of beliefs and they actually made me feel better. It's no wonder those arts I've done with just a bit of challenges are done so much better than those that I forced myself to do just to appear cool! Sometimes less really is more and I'll keep that in mind. Also, you drew that art with a MOUSE??? You pulled it off and that's amazing!! I love this video, thank you for this, Marc!!

    Hey Marc. Thank you for another great video 😊.
    I already watched some of your Art School videos too, but I still struggle with rendering materials (details/textures). When I look at a reference picture of a rock, mountains or tree bark for example and I try to paint it, my brain gets completely overwhelmed by thinking of all the little cracks and bumps that need correct shading on their own, but at the same time have to follow the general shading and form of the object itself. As I start painting my mind goes blank (blackout) and at the end my material attempt looks like a blobby, blurry mess made out of plastic or molten crayons but not like the material.
    I feel kinda lost right now because I am banging my head against this wall for a long time now, but I found no tutorial or explanation that helped me understanding how to tackle this problem or gave me that Ahhhh!/ lightbulb moment 🤕.
    I mean...look at the paintings of the Hudson River Painters or just at this piece by Albert Bierstadt called "Among The Sierra Nevada Mountains". I have no freaking idea how to achieve this level of crisp details, visual clarity and atmosphere 😭.

    I think making copies of art is a great way to train your dexterity quickly. For me, it was tough to even draw the lines I wanted; after a half dozen master copies or so (plus 15 to 25 minute "line exercises" before each session), my ability to draw straight lines, curves, and ellipses went up and now I can draw more of what I actually want to draw.

    The most important fundamental skill I recently learned is how to BREAK APART an image. Know what makes the image the image. Does it use lines? How much? Sbapes? Color? Etc etc. My art gained a huge boost and my process is faster because of it cos I can make sense of what I'm seeing. What's that protrusion between your color bone and neck? Oh it's caused by a gap in the musclenand forms a dimple. Stuff like that.
    Another powerful tool I learned for figure drawing is to learn the landmarks, then construct the body with landmarks and using reference as a learning tool for how that model is made.

    Immediately you make such a good point. Separating what seems to be well executed style that's appealing versus fundamentally good technique.
    I say this because I am formally trained in old school art. It's not that you can't learn from the old masters. But like any discipline or craft, things change. New concepts and methods are discovered. Moreover, there isn't one way of doing something.
    You don't want to copy what you see. Like you said, you want to observe and use a model or photo as a reference in order to understand fundamental components. It's from there, you apply your own style.
    Marc, I don't subscribe to your art school, but I can already tell it's a fantastic program. Your videos are still very helpful and reinforcing great ideas. Thank you

    Hey Mark, I just love your videos. You have helped me a lot with your tips to improve my drawing skills. It would be great if you make a similar video about typical mistakes related to lighting and shadows. I've been experiencing the same problem for very many years. It is about excessive contrast and depth. I see this problem with many beginners and it's what usually makes them stand out. The point is that I can't get the base gray color right and the lighting or shadow intensity right. It comes out either completely out of contrast or overly contrasty. What advice would you have on this?

    Im a junior in Highschool and my art teacher (huge shout outs to him) gave us choices as to what we are to work on for the month of october, "Option 4" is basically putting some time into a specific topic and I chose anatomy/the human form. I basically sketch something anatomy related whether it be hands, feet or legs. 30 minutes for everyday of october, Do you think that'll get me relative improvement?

    Recently someone was arguing with me about the tracing point, mainly because I sometimes use CSP's 3D models to help me with poses or moments with weird perspective, and I told them exactly what you explain here, and they just diminished it as "you aren't training your eye, you should use real life mannequins to do so" "you are cheating" etc
    It's funny because by using these models I actually learned how to improve my bodies and hands (i still struggle with feet but hey sometime soon) and I'm able to draw those without the models
    BTW love your videos, I learnt a heck ton. Planning on joining your course once i saved enough money

      By your art it's seems like you're using them as a crutch I haven't seen a single complicated pose or wierd perspective on your timeline. Use them but never really on them, it seems like you're doing that

    After watching the entire video now, all of these tips are imperative. Gives me even more respect to you. You're amazing!
    Back when I was in high school, I made the tough decision NOT to attend RISD. I had previously attended their pre-college program and excelled in it. I was considered the top of my AP Art class in senior year of highschool. I had years of formal and traditional art training within and outside of school. Not to mention countless hours of at home practice and study.
    But to the disappointment of my art teacher, I did not go to RISD. This was 2007, mind you, but even then I felt a traditional art degree would have been outdated and incompatible with the coming and changing world. Plus, thanks to my father, I didn't view school as a vocational experience, where one just goes to school to get a degree and later, get a job. Unfortunately too many people view school that way. I simply wanted to go to school to learn. Yet there are many ways one can learn. School is definitely a good place, but it's not the only place.
    So I ended up taking the route that made more sense to me. Sure, I would have made a lot of great friends and maybe some good initial contacts. I would have definitely been in my comfort zone in that it was an art school. But I wanted an educational experience that offered a bit more variety and different perspectives than just art. I believe a good artist is able to extract principles from other disciplines and apply them to art. That was my goal and I think since then I have been successful at that. It's made me a wiser, more mature and more open-minded person.

      Unfortunately I've been in the hospital since August 18th. So I have been unable to do any art lately. But prior to my hospitalization I've been so motivated to practice and pursue my art at a professional level again. I've listened to a lot of your advice in your videos. You are a fantastic artist and teacher. I really appreciate what you do. Thank you.

    Regarding art schools... I went to a specific 3D animation school for a year, got a job. Met someone a few years later who was studying art and decided to do his Bachelor's Degree in 3D Animation. No one there was qualified to teach or give feedback to thi student. He self-studied and paid an institution for a piece of paper at the end of the day.

    the thing about challenges is that in college you're asked to do loads of little things and learn new things then all of a sudden you are told to do an A1 ink painting or something in a short amount of time instead of doing a good detailed A3 or A4 you have to do a bad A1 and its just not fun or worth completing because you know it wont feel great when its done like you would with a painting you enjoyed doing and looks good by the end

    Focusing on sketches and lineart right now especially faces (since I'm trying to go for a more mature look as opposed to more "moe" anime). I still need to work on bodies in "fuller" poses but I can generally fix them easily as opposed to a bad face just crashing my vibes.

    Amen to #4. I've been a professional artist for 26 years. When we hire new artists, we're looking at their portfolio and personality. We're seeing how they process information, develop concepts, and collaborate. The least important thing is where or if they went to art school.
    Not all art schools are created equally. Mine was a collection of bickering fiefdoms. The Queen of Drawing vs. the Queen of Painting, the Lonely Yet Beloved Wizard of Printmaking, the Deplorable New "Cyber Art" Professor, and the Lowly Basement-Dwelling Photography Lady. It was not conducive to collaboration. Most importantly, I received no preparation for the professional world.
    And, frankly, I was doing better training myself.
    One disgusting element of many art schools is they inflate their students' egos. Their art is the best, most important, and will take the world by storm! RAWR! Then these poor souls graduate and realize they're not so good. They're swimming in a sea of thousands of artists who can do what they do.
    Add to that the crippling cost of college. I had a friend get an arts degree from Baldwin Wallace, rack up $160,000 in debt, and ended up abandoning the field to work as a bank teller. Nothing against bank tellers, but there's no way a teller is ever going to pay off that debt - for a degree they're not using.

    Tip 4 is the one I have the hardest time coming to terms with, I hear a lot of mixed opinions on this topic and I really can't decide which is best. For those who vouch for going to art school, they say a diploma/degree is better for you since you're able to negotiate your pay and it's harder to undersell yourself, and that most companies will look for qualifications before your portfolio, plus you get work experience from internships + connections. It's also necessary if you want to work abroad since work visas sometimes require a degree to be qualified. They also made the point that those in the art industry now who say that you don't need to go to art school made it into the industry when it was in its early phases of growth, where not as much experience is required and they basically hired anyone good enough for the job, but I have no idea how the statement holds up for artists today because you only hear from mostly successful artists and not the ones that didn't make it... Then on the side that is against art school, the advice mostly comes from personal experiences but I do understand that the fundamentals of art can be learnt on your own without needing the art school fluff that drags on with academics and wastes your time. I can't help but feel like you need to be an exceptional lucky or extremely talented few that have such amazing portfolios that they would hire you on the spot. Plus, I do agree that taking courses offered by industry professionals is way better than having a generalized course that has to be tailored so that even beginners can pick it up. Man this is confusing, I know Marc made it without a formal art education and his advice has been really helpful but I can't just be making life decisions based off a singular point of view. If anyone has any insight about this, please do leave a comment!

    A good rule to have about art schools is to verify they only hire artists currently working in their fields. My school did that and it helped a lot. When a professional comic book artist tells you how grueling a con is and another can tell you how they charge for mtg card commissions it actually helps

    Another dangerous art tip might be "Speed Painting" for beginners and possibly even intermediate artist. Myself included, many artist start doing this too early, before they even grasp the fundamentals of color theory, light and shadow. Rushing through a painting or drawing before grasping at least some level of fundamentals can leave an artist with many bad habits.

    In terms of the tracing point. I have always had trouble with perspective, especially when makig non-humanoid designs. So i learned 3d modeling to create my own dummies to get poses I cant get refs for and its usually a basis for my 2d art.

    I feel like I need to comment on the art school thing. For context i'm from Australia. It's less dedicated art schools and universities with art courses, i'm also doing an animation and games course rather than a traditional art course. But i've found ALL my teachers are in the industry. All my teachers are pretty successful within Australia and have some decent projects to their names and tell us what is is like in the industry. Then of course it comes to peoples learning style. I personally do better in a structured in real life course with deadlines and such otherwise i won't do the work. I know that's not everyone though.

    I glad that learn art from the certain artshool similar like fengsui design, that teach you concept art.. lot of my friend from university wanted to an illustrator for card game such as legend of the cryptid but end up studying art history and they said they waste their time and suprised when I told them what I learn about from my school that is totally different..
    So the if you wanted to be fine artist is totally ok to enroll to ini to learn fine art abstract etc...
    But.. if you wanted to be game illustrator, background artist concept art, splash artist and cardgame illustrator, you should go to Marc brunnet cube brush school or any school that will teach you digital painting and concept art.
    Don't be like my friends that want to wrong field eventhough its called art school

    I have a question that would probably be actual and interesting for other young artists. It is about dall-e and midjourney, new programs that are producing decent art from just textual description. I (and probably the others, too) would love to hear your opinion about them. Should we be aware of them taking artist's jobs? Will professional studios decide to lower their outlay and fire junior and probably middle artists and designers, leaving just ones with more experience to produce more art with the help of programs? Thank you and big hugs 🤗

    never got into artschool so I don't know but I think I know myself well enough that I'm not a fitting candidate to be in art school or even regular schools. I think all schools are old and out dated curriculum but hey the system says it works I guess. it just occurs to me that it's not just art school that doesn't give you much. and other courses and schools even teaches you to be more of a drone that follows without question than letting you think your own path. but wth do I know? I'm just someone who failed school dozens of times. Still, I'll avoid these art tips now though.
