In this video I give you some useful tips surrounding the concept of getting better at drawing. This doesn't tell you how to get better, it just explains the things that you should know and expect as an artist who wants to improve.

[@pr0to_zy431]

For anyone who cant draw arms or legs... Even a head, Raise your hands. (Update) Damn it's been 2 years since this comment existed, I've been improving guys, My art style became better and now I'm doing portaits for my fellow classmates and teacher, I've travelled so far and learned so much this milestone is such a blessing. Don't give up improving your drawings, Once you continue holding that pencil, Day by Day you'll learn new art styles and designs And you shall improve more and more!

As someone who has been drawing since 8 years old. I never bothered to watch a video because I always thought videos like this had bad advice, but as the years went I became better, during quarantine, I never touched my sketch pad due to stress and depression. Now I'm planning to draw again, thanks for the advice. To those ppl who are new to drawing, this guy is a professional, listen to his advice.

[@2oh9_danii75]

I just realize anyone can draw doesn’t matter if your good or not the key is practice, you just have to keep practicing and practicing and you will teach you’re goal, my sister is a nail tech she started off not that well she would make the nails pretty messy and she couldn’t do as much detail, but I seen that she was practicing everyday and I seen her progress and now she really good at doing nails she has many clients everyday all because she practiced everyday, we can do the same but with drawing!! “Practice is key”

[@bebe60602]

It is so amazing that this video came in my feed!! I was feeling just the way you say. As I admire so many gorgeous drawings and paintings it just makes me feel discouraged BUT I know better and hearing it here in this video describing my feelings so accurately is to me a sign that the universe is responding trying to help me, to be supportive. It is work, it takes practice and time to get really good. I so much enjoy painting, I am a novice. For most of my life I told myself that I could not draw nor paint. At 62 years old I started painting! It seems to have surfaced as a ripple effect of decluttering my home and to stop buying stuff that I do not really need. I am so much enjoying the therapeutic effect it has on me. At first it was very simple subjects, child like, still fun and cute. I started to watch tutorials and improve my skills a little. This activity is a tremendous teaching for me, about delaying instant gratification, applying myself, enjoying the process, be in the NOW. There is so much to learn, it is never ending really. I cannot allow my monkey brain to sabotage this newly found passion. Thank you 🙏

[@ncshuriken]

To anyone who feels this way: Dont look at it this way. I understand the way you feel (this is how I felt about drawing in my late teens and early 20s) but trust me this kind of perspective is very self destructive. What I mean is that if we know we want to draw but we keep telling ourselves "I can't do it", "this looks terrible" , "I'm never gonna get good" etc then that will keep you stressed while drawing, and the more stressed or unrelaxed you are, the less focussed you'll be. The less focussed you are, the more mistakes you make, and this makes you even MORE stressed. Eventually this kind of mentality will probably result in you quitting. Thats what I did, I quit in my 20s thanks to a self defeatist mentality! Try to see it like this: "I dont suck at this, Im just a beginner, like everybody starts as. Even the masters make mistakes and failures but they didn't let it upset them, now they create amazing art!" Stay positive , never let mistakes/failures beat you down, understand that with daily or mostly daily practice, and time, you simply WILL get better!! I say this from personal experience having only been doing it for 4 month since I finally got back into drawing. You dont suck, you can do it!!!

After watching this video I now understand why it has 10mil views. This is not your typical tutorial video thats named “Here is how to draw different poses”, but in reality they just made it to sell their skillshare course. This one instead just gives you real life advices that you can imply to any kind of sphere in life. Also gives you right mindset to begin your journey. So as a beginner artist myself I pretty much enjoyed it. Thank you ❤

[@The_Ultimate_Faker]

I have a few tips for beginning artists struggling with motivation. First, draw things you enjoy. If you have a favorite movie, show, comic book, or video game character, draw them in plain clothing with a relatively neutral look on their face to start. If you like things like flowers, look at different kinds of flowers and study the perspective. My second tip would be to watch tutorials when drawing something for the first time. There is nothing shameful about it and it will help you understand the object you are drawing. Sometime later, you can try drawing the object in a different pose or position on your own. If you have to watch more tutorials, that's okay! Lastly, if you are just beginning, don't worry about color or shading so much. In fact, I recommend not using color and using minimal shading until you are comfortable with your abilities. Good luck friends, have fun!

I used to have a drawing teacher when I was bout 9-10. He'd make us draw sceneries everyday for months. I got sick and tired of it. I told him I don't wanna draw sceneries anymore, and he told me to draw a good scenery on my own if I want him to teach me something new. I spent an entire day drawing what I thought was the best drawing. But when I finally showed him, he tore it apart, criticising almost every aspect of it . I was very upset and swore to never come back to him, or even draw at all. Unfortunately I am still very much intolerant to Criticism. I wonder if same thing happened with you?

When people usually see my drawings they say, "wow, this is so detailed, what materials do you use?" I say, "I use a mechanical pencil." then they will look a little shocked and say "well, you must have many right? Like ones with different lead and high quality erasers-" "No, I only have one pencil and a broken polymer eraser." I reply blankly. The truth about drawing is, it's not what you use. You can use a 100$ pencil and draw a crappy flower. It's how you use what's in your hand. Heck I've seen people make amazing art with crayola crayons.

Drawing depends on mood a lot. If you're in a good mood then what you draw looks great. But if you draw when you are in anger/frustration, the drawing looks screwed up. So, that's an other tip. Always draw when you are in a good mood. Have a nice day!

I have drawn and painted every day more or less non stop since childhood, then I left my home city and haven't done anything - not even a doodle - in seven years. Videos like yours are helping me back to art, so thank you for that, but oh dear I seem to have a style of drawing which I don't remember developing and I don't like it. Much of what I do from now on will be about turning myself upside down and inside out to break the habits I didn't know I had and coming at looking and seeing and interpreting afresh. Thank you for your work.

I’m 11 years old. I hope to be an illustrator, it’s my dream. I don’t think I’m bad at drawing and I’ve been drawing for years and years from my imagination. Although I’m only 11 here’s some advice. •You don’t need fancy equipment to make a masterpiece. All you need is a pencil, paper, and creativity •Don’t look at amazing artists regularly. I’m not telling you not to look at other artwork but sometimes it can lower your self esteem. •Plan out what you want to draw. This is not completely necessary but it can be useful other than throwing sheets and sheets of paper away. Just some advice. No need to follow.
