I'tm a middle school art teacher. I use my own experience and the teachings of Betty Edwards and Jill Bolte Taylor to help kids positively engage in drawing for their own benefit. Now, sir, I will incorporate what I've learned from you. Bravo! Thank you for sharing your insights.
I’m an artist right now, I know shading, I’m pretty good at using sketches but if you can’t do this but you can still use a pencil or something, you’re still an artist! Whoever said you have to be good to be an artist? As long as you create something, that’s art! If you want to become really good, just practice everyday! I was never always good at art, heck, I still have much to learn but I’ve improved a lot because I tried and wanted to learn everyday. You should try too! Any type of art, sports, craft, anything! Practice what you want! Thank you guys for reading
Thanks Michael, your not just describing the topic of drawing but imho a big deal of what it means to be a perceptual lifeform - very nice one sir, love it
No matter the pain, the death threats ive recieved from my paintings and the conflicts Ive had with people I thought respected me the same as Ive respected them. No matter the hate and intense nature of life, I can't stop creating the art. I make my art for to quite my mind, I see it as a regret if I miss the opportunity I was debating on doing or not. I just can't stop creating, even if it sucks you still gotta create. I know for a fact writers block happens to artists, and their creativity. But in all honesty if you ignore that voice saying you can't you still gotta grind them gears cuz soon enough you will be in that energy making the art you wanna make. The muses will only reward you if you still chase it even if you think you gotta wait till you have the idea. I never have an idea what Ima make until its over.
First time i drawed I thought i was good and then i got really great at drawing, sometimes people would ask me if i could teach them how to draw and when I got better at drawing I looked at my old pictures and I realized how horrible at drawing, but look where it got me.
I draw almost obsessively, and used to teach basic drawing. I fill 26x20 art boards with intricate, technical, visionary, ink drawings ONCE A WEEK ...and .....I have no idea what this guy is talking about. .....I failed/didn't enjoy most trys at formal training. I experience joy when I draw and try to point others upon that path.
One thing I learned was how children draw are actually better when you are trying to oil paint of digitally draw, that is mostly because they see the outlines instead of previous information. I am trying to relearned how to only draw outlines, because then i can oil paint or digitally add in the shading to make it as accurate as ever.
I've been using only 1 pencil for a Lot of my drawings and they're so good! Hint: s h a d i n g and how you angle your pencil to make dark/light shades
Yeah, I thought that was the lesson, but he passed that idea by when he showed the two cats that were highly subjective and not true. Getting to real drawing, takes a lot more work. He does the untypical thing of not saying drawing was easy when we were children because we were geniuses, but we let criticism get in the way when people finally got around to saying our drawing was not good. He flat out says to really draw you have to reach beyond self expression, and engage with representation, or something like that.
I think he is showing how to draw, but he is telling something else, to let me think hard, why we draw. why we draw like this, the center of universe, and it is not we think we know, the gravity the horizon, the cross icon. this is interesting I like his comment, simple, to set youself free the truth will follows.I also like his comment why we draw is not to express and impress but to understand. this is a great point.
Ah very abstract way of explaining the process of the artist....he is correct however to understand how to draw is not to put labels on a thing. Labels are a left brain job. For example if you observed a chair. Left brain would categorize all legs of the chair are equal lengths however when you look at a chair from an angle that is never the case. Getting rid of the obvious and to draw it plainly on the way it appears is difficult unless you know how to trick the left brain to let go and allow the more powerful right brain to draw it on how it appears.
Was thinking the same thing. Went from talking about drawing to life itself? I mean heck he even used a depiction of a cross. :/ This isn't a video about drawing at all.
Can someone point me to his dealer because as someone who taught himself to draw I didn't think once about the center of the universe what helped me was learning construction and anatomy if you want some actual useful tips I'd suggest fun with a pencil by andrew Loomis
"... his animations rival those of Disney"? pardon me! He IS an ARTIST, Disney is a COMPANY!! I'm certain Disney would have a hard time rivalling his work!
"it's easy to draw" i whisper to myself as tears drip off my face onto my sketchbook at 3am
sam m. Well then, perhaps you are a writer?
This was literally me last night lmao
Me tho
I relate to this so much!

If i continue to listen to these TEDx Talks I'm going to cry at work. It's too true, man.
Why are you watching TEDx Talks in the middle of work though?

JeayaTheNugget it’s so f******g hard to draw on tablet
I like to draw too! like you say but not artist
YDN Ban yeah
PD: Learn theory, then practice. That helps... ALOT.
"its easy to draw but hard to improve" thats what most people really wanted to say.

Yeah for me what it took to get better at drawing was to understand construction and not rush to the final lines right away

This videos needs more likes and views. WHO AGREES!?

Our response to gravity is the horizon. I like it.
I've been using only 1 pencil for a Lot of my drawings and they're so good!

Inspired.
We
can
DRAW!!!!!!!
Very inspiring talk about how we experience and drawing as a means to understand whatever make an impression on us.
Right. So why is it easy to draw?
Yeah, I thought that was the lesson, but he passed that idea by when he showed the two cats that were highly subjective and not true. Getting to real drawing, takes a lot more work. He does the untypical thing of not saying drawing was easy when we were children because we were geniuses, but we let criticism get in the way when people finally got around to saying our drawing was not good.

Imagine that you are great artist and feel through your hands.. But I'm trying to draw well. I hope I will draw at good level
I may not draw to express myself, but that is exactly what happens, nonetheless.
I get it now! It all became so obvious!
Great video and helpful too👍
Was this guy talking about drawing or was he trying to preach the word of god to us?
Was thinking the same thing. Went from talking about drawing to life itself? I mean heck he even used a depiction of a cross. :/
This isn't a video about drawing at all.
Yes
Why aren't there many coments
Everyone left speechless
Because there's no such thing as a "coment"
Can someone point me to his dealer because as someone who taught himself to draw I didn't think once about the center of the universe what helped me was learning construction and anatomy if you want some actual useful tips I'd suggest fun with a pencil by andrew Loomis
I only can concentrate on his breathing!!
Now I'm scared to start drawing on my iPad
WOW, this was really good!!
"... his animations rival those of Disney"?
pardon me! He IS an ARTIST, Disney is a COMPANY!! I'm certain Disney would have a hard time rivalling his work!
"who is Walt Disney?"
lily-liver A money-grubbing antisemite.
Always look with fresh eyes 📷 😸
Does not say anything.
It's easy first draw sketch and draw the face or body Done!
Yeah drawing basic shapes of something and then adding helps me alot
His words about drawing and gravity was better than a catholic sermon.
TAKE ME TO CHURCH PASTOR RASTOVICH, EARTH WITHOUT ART IS EH!
THERES NO SANTA CLAUS???
Thatsright BUM BUM BUUUUUUMMM
Thatsright
Huh?
drawing is hard
Titou Messenageu ok, drawing is fun
All fun things are hard. Someone who has much practice can make a task *look* easy, but there's a lot going on under the surface.
Can confirm
One drawing tells more than thousand words.
Your amazing
