      Sorry but not Picasso..believe me you can do this to only dedication and studying the materials. For some it takes years for others not that long. But art is different it is all about bringing your own technique and concepts. Become your own signature.

    When I was 11 years old I wanted to be an artist for a living. Drawing and painting was something I always enjoyed doing. My dad told me one day I would never be a successful artist. I would only be successful after death like my favorite artist Vincent Van Gough so I stopped drawing and paiting. It's been a little over 10 years and I'm starting to be inspired to draw again just for fun too. I just got a new sketch and a mind full of thing to draw. Sorry for the long comment, but I felt the need to share. 😅 Thanks for sharing your Journey and most importantly don't give up!

    I was also her age when I started drawing,but,on and off.Had to prioritize making amends for daily life,so,I set aside my love for drawings.Now,I'm 53 and starting again from the scratch,I think.It's a never-ending passion I'd like to be enhanced.Not too late,I guess.

      I am so greedy when it comes to buying equipment too, so that combined with losing interest in drawing and playing with other hobbies instead doesn't really push me in the correct direction .. I could just order a tablet, but what if I just won't end up using it .. pretty much what happened to my keyboard and guitar and I bought them like a decade ago and just play on them once in awhile.

      Sugar Baby It's not really. You'd be surprised at how often that happens. Our brain isn't fully developed yet, so when it is we are able to do stuff which we thought we couldn't before. Without practise, my drawings improved from when I was 8 to the time I reached age 15. It'll still keep getting better though.

    I think that artistic ability is more to do with the mind. If you draw everyday you develop certain muscle memory but if you take a long break you can still visualise certain things and you can practice in your head by imagining which places to give more depth and shading. Art isn't all about constant physical practice, it is about your depth of understanding and how well you understand how to place colour and texture. Practicing is necessary and helps put your understanding into a physical product, but art isn't just about whats on the paper, it is the whole idea and understanding of the world around you. To be able to interpret something into art, you must understand the features and shapes in whatever it is that you are creating. People seem baffled by your improvement after such a long break but its not that strange. It proves that you improved your understanding during that time and you clearly still thought in the way of an artist. When you went back to drawing, you were able to finally release your understanding and then it flourished. You then proceeded to improve through practicing and that made your art even more accurate and advanced. Seeing your improvement was very inspiring.
    I myself am an aspiring artist and i really love watching videos like this, showing people's improvement.

      I took a 34 year break. I was 15 when I stopped. I'm 49 now. I believe what you say is true. When i picked up a pencil at my grandmothers house last week I honestly did not even believe how much better without practice I had become. Still a LONG LONG way from where I'd like to be, but my passion was ignited again, one that had been extinguished by a few well meaning art teachers in my youth.

      @silviemahdal3570  5 років тому +246

      I do not see such a difference but if you do I guess it is because I was 10 years older :) I did not practice during the break, I remember I drew about 3 pictures that I do not have anymore but it cannot be counted as a practice at all.

    ** My 10 year break - Sometimes we might get better at something only by getting older / growing up even without a proper practice (by getting more confident lines, seeing things differently, using little different techniques, using also shading instead of just outline lines, etc.). I did not practice during the break, I remember I drew about 3 pictures that I do not have anymore but it cannot be counted as a practice as I have drawn hundreds of sketches since then. The largest improvement is a result of constant daily practice (especially during 2016-2019).

      Making it a habit is the easiest way to stick to something. If it’s something you’re really passionate about, make sure it is a priority, make sure to not “I don’t have time” it. Anyway, that’s enough mothering for me, good luck! ♥️

      (My art is not realistic) but I take breaks a lot for many reasons: Busy with school or having art block. And I figured that having art block for me means that I do not want to draw because I know my drawings need improvement as I keep seeing other people's art which tend to be much better than mine. During the break, I just keep seeing art on Instagram and after the break, I realize that I'd become better. It is weird. Idk if my theory is correct or not.

      What you call talent can easily be learned. I mean there's a book about that "Artistic vision" (Drawing on the right side of the brain". And if someone is better than another person with a same amount of practice, that's only because some people learn faster. It has nothing to do with talent. And even creativity is something that can you develope, because creativity needs to be fed, so the more art you see or copy etc, the more creative your art work will be. It's just stupid to tell someone they are talented, when they worked for it long hours for years. Only hardworking people can become an artist and it has nothing to do with talent. Oh, and copying and using a reference is still not the same.

    • @szabomarton2003
      @szabomarton2003 4 роки тому

      @olivi doen It depends on what kind of realistic paintings you want to draw. If you want to draw from imagination, you have to learn a lot of things, like perspective, anatomy, etc. I would recommend Ctrl Paint and Drawabox lessons. If you just want to copy the best way is to read the "Drawing on the right side of the brain" by Betty Edwards. You can buy it, but it can be downloaded from the internet. After you learnt the fundamentals, learn some techniques, such as charcoal, graphite, white pencil on black paper, etc. It is all about the amount of practice that you put in. If you are losing your motivation watch some progress videos. My favourite artist is ZHC, it is insane how much learned in a few years. Good luck with your journey, I hope you will start drawing.
      Edit: That is not a problem that you are left handed.

    To get photorealistic sketch you need to start the shading with H series graphite pencils and work your way up to 6B or 8B It takes a lot of time and patience Also the paper surface and thickness matters when building layers of graphite like Bristol Vellum 100 lb
