DRAWING FOR BEGINNERS Part 4: How to Draw What You See

[@luke3017]

I’d seen people use shapes but they’ve never explained why they were doing it or how, so this video is really useful thanks

[@RTIFEX]

Definitely, Luke. You can even build off of the simple shapes and use 3D shapes like cubes, cones, etc. if you want to add guides that provide more depth. This is a little more advanced, which is why I left it out.

[@locochavo4560]

@@RTIFEX Sounds like useful drawing skill to have, specially if drawing perspective backgrounds and vehicles! Hope you can make a future video on it!

[@RTIFEX]

@@locochavo4560 Oh definitely. Perspectives are coming up in a future video.

[@oathkeeperoblivion177]

Oh my GOD this video is gold. I’m a few years into my art journey and at a plateau with the basics again because nobody seems to want to explain how drawing with simple shapes actually works. Thank you SO much!!!

[@RTIFEX]

It's extremely rewarding for me to hear I'm helping people like you out there. Thank you so much!

[@gajendraraghuwanshi919]

Bro,I am from India 🇮🇳 and I appreciate you for your videos which are helping all of us.Thanks❤❤❤🎉

[@-1solrak]

I actually used to make only circles for the head and some straight lines for the eyes, nose and mouth, but I never thought to do more figures for the rest of the body, thank you so much, with this, I won’t have to just throw lines randomly for make the arms or legs hahah 🥳🤩

[@RTIFEX]

Hey, you knew where to start. Now have fun with those limbs! 😄

[@inktorious8549]

Ive just gotten back into pencil drawing after a few years digital and then a good old break so feel like im starting over. i learned more from this video than i have in the last two weeks. bravo!

[@randomeverything8425]

I have been loving this series so far! It’s been so fun to get your video notification every week or so, and getting my art supplies out and drawing with you! This is so fun to do, and it helps me improve! Thank you so much!

[@RTIFEX]

I'm very happy to hear you're enjoying the series. 😄

[@locochavo4560]

Great vid! I felt like you have explained and how to find basic shapes in different types of angles and perspective, but l still appreciate yout taking on a angle a struggle with the most! Can't wait to use it this method and start improving my construction and proportions skills!

[@RTIFEX]

Thank you, Loco Chavo. Those angles can get ya! Practice and repetition make it easier though.

Old school drawing rule: You have 1000 crappy drawings in you before you produce a good one. Start getting them out.

[@carlsmith6754]

Its is not about talented it is about developing skills and take practice and practice and dont forget to have patience learning any skills needed patience and more practice.The long the better.

Even this way is very hard to draw the same thing

[@RTIFEX]

Just give it some time.

[@oo8962]

LOL I don't even know what shape the dog's body parts are. When I saw that image I'm like: Head is circle, the snout uh... Triangle I guess? The neck... Heart shaped? I would definitely draw random shapes and confuse myself afterwards

[@RTIFEX]

Haha. Maybe I'll make a video showing how to recognize the shapes. 🤔

[@Rawrlene91]

I felt like I was keeping up but you ended with a magnificent dog like the picture and I ended up with some alien version of it 😂

[@Rawrlene91]

I should however mention that you are my fave art teacher on KZbin 👍🏼

[@MissLaurenB18]

What helps you pick out shapes? I have a hard time seeing it

[@ashy2.07]

To practice I sometimes print a pic out and trace over it in the shapes makes it easier going forward.

[@vihaananand7128]

The video is awesome but the problem is when I tried to draw the dog it turned out not so good. So, can you please do another video explaining it a little further. Thanks!

[@RTIFEX]

Thanks. I might set something up like that in the future.

[@vihaananand7128]

@@RTIFEX thanks so much p.s. sorry I forgot to reply

[@jamesklark6562]

Never learned this one in my drawing class. Instead they put more emphasis on drawing forms making it difficult understanding how to compose your subject.

[@RTIFEX]

It's too bad they didn't teach this one. I've always found it extremely useful and tend to go back to it often.

[@story8295]

I'm somewhat free from the curse, the only problem is I don't know how to see shapes from the reference

[@RTIFEX]

This can take time but will come to you after a little practice. Start with the bigger shapes first, and don't worry about being exact. The shapes might be different for everyone, and that's ok. We all see things a little differently.

[@ucbereket9543]

the problem with me is i dont like to use shapes to draw i just see the object Begin from one side and start drawing

[@RTIFEX]

Really, there's no wrong way to create art! If you enjoy the process of working from side to side, keep doing that and develop your own style. I'm a huge proponent of doing what you love because it's about having fun. The construction technique in this video is just one tool artists can use to achieve accuracy. 😊

i'm drawing a headless dog , what do i do , this is so difficult 😭😭

[@RTIFEX]

Hopefully you're not drawing that from a reference. 😅

[@ObeseMommy]

i find shape drawing to be extremely confusing, idk why but i cant see things as shapes

[@RTIFEX]

It can take a little practice to feel comfortable with it. Keep looking for shapes in things as you observe them. You don't even need to draw anything.

[@kaidenparker6259]

i really want to learn how to draw but at the same time i'd probabaly have a seizure or a mental breakdown trying to understand it

[@RTIFEX]

Baby steps! And honestly, all that matters is that you enjoy the experience while you create.

[@gracelatinaolavellave]

what did you mean when you said ", what level of drawing each person is at? by the way you are bad @ss. i like your style. But at age 47 i am still finding my style of drawing. i have been drawing since i can remember. Its hard for me to blend color. i dont know if i have a touch of color blindness. But i am trying. When growing up. Doctors said there was some thing wrong with my hands. My goal is to become pro. My goal is to learn how to draw hyperrealism. i struggle with reaching my goal. i draw every day.

[@RTIFEX]

Mainly if you consider yourself a beginner or more advanced. The 2 big things to know about hyperrealism are to go big and take your time. Large paper/canvases will help you fit in lots of details and possibly help you with your hand condition. It will also, naturally, take longer to finish art of this size, and the extra time spent focusing on the little things will make it that much more realistic. Good luck!
