    Hey Waffles, I have a suggestion for you. You said a few years ago in your Rapunzel drawing that you didn't want to draw her crown because it was too complicated. Well, now that you've improved as an artist, why not draw the crown this year? Just a thought. 😋

  • @bunjistee
    @bunjistee 6 років тому +117

    Another tip is that you can achieve contrast by playing with colours. Colour all scetches with cold colours and only colour one with warm colours. This will immediately bring viewers eyes to the warm drawing. You can also colour other scetches lighty and only the best one full colour

    @jordan-pj4mw 6 років тому +48

    Cram the page with as many doodles, sketches, finished illustrations and/or poems as you possibly can and I mean ALL the sketches! Once you've done that you can add some more sketches and maybe a couple more doodles. Just make sure every spare inch is full of something creative or doodle-y.
    okay i have to stop now but doodle-y is a word, I say it all the time. xD

    I kind of think it's important to realize that a sketchbook, in the end, is for your own personal practice. At least if you don't plan to use it for your college application. It's not a good idea to limit yourself by pressuring yourself to draw well because people will look at it. That sort of defeats the purpose.
    That is not to say that the tips are bad, they are DEFINITELY helpful. I just think it's good to keep in mind that your sketchbook doesn't have to look like an art book print

    I add comics to my sketchbooks... I don't know why, but I usually just get this urge to make a comic at least once with every sketchbook, and it sort of adds a fun something to interact with in there (if I let people read them). So yeah, there's an extra idea if you're interested in trying it out. Love all these ideas, I definitely plan on giving them a try!

      Actually, sometimes the parts of a sketchbook that aren't well drawn look the best. Just blobs of paint, swatches, thumbnails, quick studies... Nicely drawn doesn't equal nice to look at.

    It seems like you have a more product-based view of sketchbooks, which is totally cool, but I have a more learning based idea of sketchbooks and I think of sketching as practicing different things whenever I want to draw rather than filling sketchbooks. These are cool tips, and I could learn from them, but they don't really apply to me.

    "subDUDE" ha.
    This video was actually fun and informative!!!
    Doodle-y is a word (to me xp) whether people like it OR NOT!!!
    I often like adding watercolor washes in the background of my doodles because it looks so boring in black.
    Thank you again for inspiration and that added waffle-y ness (see, told you it WAS a word xD lol) in the video.
    This is me reminding you that a waffle a day keeps every doctor at bay, even the healthiest ones!

    Hey, I am a big fan! I have read many rude comments about you, this might be hard to take in, but probably more than the positive ones, you might have seen them, and if you have, know that your inspired fans will be the closest to you during the cruelest times, right there next to you. To make you smile, happy, and at the edge of the world! (Not literally because that is probably not a good thing). This situation is like nature; you are the plant, the haters are the pesky insects, and your fans are the beneficial insects, eating up and destroying the pests! (Sheesh that was violent) I’m not going to say you are talented, because you are not, you WORKED for it. An example is your Rapunzel drawings, the thing when you see how much you improved over the past five years? When I saw the videos, I might be blind, but I am pretty sure that each one is different. You worked on it. If you were talented or gifted with a skill of drawing, all of them would look practically the freakin’ same. NOONE is born with a talent, they work for the talent they chose to work for. So all in all, I love you, from the bottom of my heart, and be a Jolly and happy artist to the end, don’t stop until your last words! Good luck WiffWaffle! You are inspiring!

    Ok so
    Before you do what I did and become insecure to her drawings remember, please. She is quite a pro. You're just beginning. It's fine to not do amazing right now and anyways. You got your own way of expressing youself through your art we all do. Don't be discouraged it just takes time.

    Another thing I learned in graphic design: CARP!!!
    Contrast
    Alignment

    Proximity
    Of course, it was meant for typography and logos but u can find a way to incooperate it in ur art!

    @kaitlynroberts5027 6 років тому

    This is very helpful! I think too often i'm always trying to make a finished work on every page, or i just hav my "quick sketch" pages. I like the idea of the washes, and filling more space with several sketches; some being just less fleshed out. I've been working with size contrast with my different sized microns. But i do think applying some of these tips will help add that little extra focus or pop where i need it. Btw just found your channel earlier this week and i love your work, and your personality, i immediately subscribed aftr 1 video. Looking forward to watching more!

    • @drawingwiffwaffles
      @drawingwiffwaffles  6 років тому +10

      +Lindy thick paper. Just check the GSM on the sketchbook. You probably want 100lb or higher. Now you can shop all over the internet. The higher the GSM. The thicker the paper.
      You're welcome!

      Lindy I ALWAYS buy it at a local art store because it ends up turning out the way I like it a lot more then one from online and also in my opinion it's just better quality (and I also like looking at the size irl instead of the internet)
