Change Your Angle and Perspective

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!
Today I am sharing an edited version of a recorded live online drawing party with my Patrons.
You can join my Draw tip Tuesday Club on Patreon, so you can start attending these online drawing sessions!

Today's video is a bit of a rough edit, but the exercise is really fun, so who cares about the video quality? It's just like with drawings: even a bad drawing is better than no drawing at all!
Choose a subject and draw it three times:
-First put your subject right in front of you to draw it.
-Then put it on the floor, put it on the floor so you can draw it from a bird's eye view.
-After that, put your subject high up, (or put it on the table and sit on the floor) so you can see it from a worm's eye view.
You can try changing your angle when you are drawing a scene too; stand up instead of sitting on a chair (or stand on the chair - be careful then though!), or sit on the floor to draw. Changing your angle that way can really give you dramatic effects and adds to your story and composition. It's pretty exciting, if you ask me.

I enjoyed your different angle and perspective approaches, very stimulating. Will try! Thank you 😊

[@tubatim333]

Great demonstration. Thanks.

[@richies6420]

I'm so excited about the book. I'm on the email list.

[@kathylarson7601]

Great idea!

[@anietamccracken2182]

Love this idea!

[@bajaboolie]

Fun idea! Thanks for the upload :-)

Those are great shares, you are targeting the right audience, including me. I have to change the perspective to get a new perspective and be able to finish a few works in the near future. Thank you for your wonderful video, I am very happy, I want to spread it to everyone.

Really like the three different perspectives of the same object. You always inspire me with your fun ideas! I'm going to try this exercise for sure. And continue to keep us posted with the journey of your book - fascinating.

Thank you for this new idea, I am excited to try this!!!

[@chiarasola826]

Oh I love this idea! :D Thank you!

[@samantams]

Ah such a great tip! I’ll try that for sure!

[@RadishTheFool]

This is such a fun and helpful idea, and I love how you explain and demonstrate it. Also, the results are just lovely, and I greatly enjoy hearing about your book. Thank you! A similar idea I just saw was someone painting the same subject several times, but allowing herself different amounts of time. First she did a 10 minute sketch, then painted it very fast, and finally took a very long time. Again, just like with you, very different results.

[@KoosjeKoene]

That's a great idea. I've done that too, and it's fun!

[@butacrafts]

I like this idea. Esp with me being home so much now! 😀

[@KoosjeKoene]

Yeah you just need new perspectives on the same things, right? Same here.

[@SpiritPhoenixRose]

What A FAB idea! Thank you! I'm up to drawing 303 in my 365 challenge and about 250 drawings ago, the creator of the character I draw, Booto bunny, sent me a plush! I will try this thing with him today, cuz my compositions could use improvement... P.S. really looking for to your book!

[@KoosjeKoene]
