Practicing random marks have helped me considerably. When I had starting making watercolor paint last year, I had a lot of leftover watercolor paint on the glass plate that I could not scrape off. So, I would use that the leftover watercolor paint to make random monochromatic painting marks and images. I have discovered so many patterns and marks that I like.
Wow, that's a great suggestion! I might try doing that as well :) - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
If I'm afraid of the blank page I like to warm up with blind contours of my hand or something random that's just around for five minutes or so. That way nothing I draw afterwards will look as bad as that blind contour so its only up from there!
That's a GREAT way to start!! It's always best to jump straight into warming up-- that way you won't have time to worry, haha - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
i slowly started accumulating so much art stuff that my (extremely tiny) living room has been taken over and everything is visible and accessible at all times.. i don't like the mess but i do make at least 3 drawings or paintings a every day
Wow, that's a really impressive amount of work!! Amazing :D - Mia, Art Prof Staff
Crappy drawings stress me out. I initially hate most of my work, then when I go back, realize there's something fun in most of them. But when it doesn't turn out as I hoped I get frustrated.
That makes a lot of sense! It's perfectly natural to feel discouraged and upset when something doesn't turn out the way you planned. But the fun part is looking back afterthefact and finding things you like about it :) - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
For real, but I’m feeling a bit better since I saw a clip where an artist ripped up a page she found ugly/boring and used the bits in an abstract collage. It’s really taken some pressure off, thinking if it’s still looking ugly next week/month/year I can legit use it to make something else or cover it with something new. But often it looks ok once some time has passed and I’ve forgotten what I was aiming for.
Right now I’m working in a sketchbook, which is very freeing. I no longer have a canvas that takes up space and it’s difficult to hide. My sketches are completed portraits where I’m doing my best. Working on paper with watercolor is so different than oil and canvas- again, taking up very little space.
That's amazing! I often find it's easiest to make work on a small scale, at least in my experience. It takes a lot of the pressure off. - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
Appreciate the video.
I would like to mention that Deepti did not answer the “beautiful vs ugly sketchbook” question - instead she projected her opinion. UA-cam is the perfect example. There are artists who showcase their well crafted journals with long process artwork while others have piles of unruly paper of mess. And there is a difference in thinking from both artists and if that question had been pondered before answering - I think that would have helped more artists understand the different approaches that other creators have when it comes to how and what they choose to draw. My question surrounds what approach is more beneficial. To draw beautiful artwork you enjoy but spend excessive time on detail or to draw messy and loosely studying concepts until you feel you grasped it, even if it feels mechanical and boring?
Imo, there is no right way to approach how you keep your sketchbook(s) . Differentiating them into “ugly” and “beautiful” will probably do more to prevent you from creating in the long run. I’ve tried keeping sketchbooks that are “beautiful” and then just end up getting frustrated when working in them because I’m too worried about the end product being beautiful.
My self portrait I show in this stream is a good example: I came in with the goal to just sketch and explore for 10 min, not caring about the end result. However, I did end up working for a long long time on that and think it’s quite beautiful! The lack of expectation allowed me to just go where I felt inspired and then ended up on a sketch I’m happy and surprised with.
This is of course all subjective - what might be beneficial to one artist won't necessarily be right for another. Imo a sketchbook should be a place you feel comfortable exploring, taking risks and experimenting.
When it all comes down to it, you should work in whatever way you feel is most beneficial to your growth and what you see encourages you to make.
Thank you for doing these videos!!! I can't wait to get started!!!!!
You are so welcome!-Prof Lieu
Mark making for an artist is akin to jamming for a jazz musician.
So true!! Spontaneous and beautiful :D - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
This is SO inspiring. I couldn't even finish the video before leaving this comment. Thank you so much for this type of content. I feel like I have a new mindset about drawing, and it encourages me to keep exploring (some days I just practice to improve my skills, but I miss the opportunities to have fun doing that)
I didn't know about the free reference photos that you have. That is awesome! I was also wondering if I may use them to make digital collages (giving you the credits of the images) If so, it would be great, and I would appreciate it very much.
Keep doing great! Thank you again for everything you give to us, it is so valuable. I'll continue watching the video *-*
Yes you can use our photos for that! We just ask that you credit Art Prof if you post the work anywhere. Can't wait to see what you make! -Prof Lieu
@@artprof Thank you so much!!
This was so helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! :) - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
The biggest takeaway from random mark making is pencil control which results in better brush control. I do circles, lines, tubes. cubes, cross hatching, rectangles. Pages and pages of them. I have never tired of doing it.
That's incredible! Mark making is so fun :) - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
What i now did find out to be realy interesting:
I searched for GIFs of my favorite tv show a draw from that.
If the GIFs are to long its incredible hard, but if they are short its realy interesting and fun, a little like live drawing
That's such a good idea!!!!! I'm totally going to try that sometime :) - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
Self taught? I think you mean Art Prof taught.
Haha, that's perfect! - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
Yes I find the starting very hard.
Me too, it can be so hard to motivate... - Mia Rozear, Art Prof Staff
