What a difference a good teacher and a week’s worth of practice makes. I’ve gone from stick figure hands to, “Oh! Look at me!! I’m drawing hands!!!” In. One. Week. After 60 years of telling myself, I can’t draw. Thank you, Brandon.

[@SchaeferArt]

Wow that is awesome to hear 😊 glad you are enjoying yourself and seeing some progress!

[@kushsmoka]

that's a W homie, hope you're still enjoying the wonders of drawing

Big win! Hopefully you're still drawing and enjoying the craft!! Take pride in that you had doubts, and then smashed them to become accomplished at something you never believed that you could. Love and light.

[@facetiousmarbles3539]

I actually found one of the biggest things to me is how to hold the pencil and how it affects the lines.

[@Shindai]

I like this approach, it's more playful than I've had before. There's an art class local to me but the teacher really emphasises the realism, and I just wanna sketch roughly, I'm put off by endless shading and refining, I just wanna draw stuff well enough for people to recognise what I'm drawing. This feels a lot more open ended and less pressure to do it perfectly.

gotta learn to sketch before trying your hand at realism anyways.

There's a lot of art like that. You don't need to go for realism. Dr Seuss didn't, and he's still pretty damn famous to this day.

Besides all the great info you give with your voice in these videos, one of the most important things I've learned from watching your videos is just keep drawing! You are never talking with the pencil still. You're always drawing something in these videos, and thats what its all about. Thanks a lot!

[@jeevanpritham7688]

if so make boruto episodes .👍👍

[@zeronothinghere9334]

Not sure whether he already did faces (Just started to watch) But IMO try to simplify things (as he said in this video) at first. Instead of a detailled nose, you might just want to draw the most distinguishing marks. Don't draw your own face, it's pretty hard, instead grab some random pictures from the almighty internet, maybe even facebook, look at their most distinguishing marks, and draw those. Marks you could pay attention to: headshape, especially chin Shape of the eyes, noseline, general direction of hair, eyebrow line, by extention hair direction mouthline, upperlips, lower lips, ears if you can see some, accessories and more Face proportions might also help you. The eyes are actually in the middle of our headshape, nose ends at 1/4 of headshape, mouth at 1/8, and if the mouth is resting, then where the corner of the mouth is, is there, where you should draw the eyes.

When drawing random objects around the house, for example.

+Paul Berber The oval can actually be broken down more to a circle and two triangles, if that's easier. But yes, this technique will come in handy when you start to draw people and animals.

I just found this video series, and I wanted to let you know how exceptional you are as a teacher. Well done, sir!

[@SchaeferArt]

Thank you, much appreciated!

[@pldevine71]

Love Brandon's attitude and demeanor...so encouraging.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THOSE VIDEOS! Even thought I just watched 2 vids. I am so happy that you made them. I used to cry a lot and be mad because everytime I draw something. It looks like a sh**. And I used to think that drawing these simple stuff are boring and stuff. But it's actually really helpfull to understand the shapes, shadows and other things. Hopefully one day I get better even thought now I'm 13. Please continue making them! Love this channel!!!!! ❤❤❤❤✌👊

No problem :) Hope the drawing is going well. Have fun with it.

[@nightmarus6396]

When you're able to draw a hand without it looking like a bunch of sausages stuck to a circle

You have such a calm, soothing voice and manner about you. It's so very conducive to a relaxing way of learning.

These videos are amazing. I’m so bad at drawing I don’t draw because I’m embarrassed of it. I have always wanted to learn and get better but had given up. These are free easily available lessons that are high quality. I have 2 papers drawn from these lessons of what you taught. I hope to continue to learn and eventually be a good drawer as a hobby. I truely thank you for making these.

Seeing how to see things with shape and demension has helped my sketches the more shape and not look so flat. The squinting trick with shadows really helped!

[@gayedavies2797]

Going to look for shapes right now! Dance is shapes, letters are shapes, lines are shapes and loose pencil sketching.....amazing!

[@aunmaqsood8227]

Damn! I learned so much stuff just from the first episode.right now I am trying to make a triangular prism.

Anyone else having a marathon

[@jaydencampbell4959]

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@rv9590]

Episode 1: Sketch and have fun. Episode 2: Play around with the pencil. Episode 3: Looking forward to see it next. No pressure for us beginners who wants to learn how to draw even for my kids. Thanks again.

I'm so glad you put together this series. I haven't drawn for fun since...high school? I'm 38 now and you gave me the courage to pick up a pencil again and start doing some basic sketching. I think having some sort of art in your life, music or visual arts like this is good for the soul.
