Peter : explains process very clearly. Me : Must be those brush pens...

[@cloudGremlin]

Lol, brush pens are super hard to use!!! Really the best thing is just get a bunch of art supplies and find what gives you the art you want. Rn I use super soft color pencils because I like variation in my opaqueness but I cannot erase, which allows me to still search for shapes/etc but I am building confidence in my line placement. I use a lot of pens that give super solid no-variation lines because it fits my style. But I can also paint with acrylics, watercolour, gouache, and use brush pens, pencils, charcoal, pastels (chalk and oil), POSCA and other paint pens, paper, etc. Took me two years but now I know what I like :)

Some tips I wrote that he said during the video: . . . - Most common mistake is about Proportion - Draw the basic shapes when trying to draw new things. - Think about your intentions when you draw. Draw in layers of intentions. - Don't overwork a drawing. - Commit to the line, commit to the shape. - Give subtlety and care when drawing fabric materials. - Always know what you're trying to do. - Give it time - Don't get tunnel visioned. - Be consistent, find your strengths and weaknesses. - Don't rush, have a clear intention and have fun! - Draw everyday. - Explore different things when you draw to avoid burnout. - When shading, go from general to the details. - Be quick in the beginning - Use thumbnails for problem solving. - Cross contours increase volume. - Be consistent when hatching, follow the form - Being knowledgeable about shape design is the industry standard. - Move on when you are satisfied with an image, and do more drawings!

i think that's part of the process. you have to know the basics first and how images in real life works before you set off on your own (at least that's what i think). :^) if you feel like you're just copying and not really observing the objects that you're "copying" in real life maybe you're doing something wrong.

[@Nancy-pf6ft]

Peter is that rare balanced combination of brilliant artist and teacher. 5-6 years ago I took his Dynamic Sketching 1 class on the CGMA site about 6 years ago. If you’re stuck, if you never really took drawing classes but you have the passion, if you’ve been drawing for years but feel frustrated and want to propel yourself to the next level, take the class. Peter’s Dynamic Sketching classes will force you to face shortcomings and solve them, force you to be a true student again (there’s serious homework for several weeks). For the record, I was 56 when I took that class and had been drawing all my life-have nothing to do with CGMA and have not taken another class on the site. But that class propelled me forward and ignited an old passion. If you’re interested in a small taste, I believe Peter’s Dynamic Sketching 1 has a teaser of about 20 min (for the first class only) somewhere here on KZbin.

Great advice from Peter Han that caught my eye: 1. Draw with a clear intention, what do you what your piece to show, what do you want the focus to be 2. When getting critic from others don't focus only on what's not working, also focus on what is working (so avoid only seeking negative critic, and also avoid only seeking positive critic) 3. Drawing from imagination is based on your experience and knowledge of the basic shapes of the objects you're drawing.

Exitment of a finished piece of art and your curiosity are the two fuels that pushes you to being able to practice daily art and become a better artist, you have a character you really like, its your curiosity and excitement about the picturing that image which makes you want to draw, if you dont acctivated these two in your mind, and you never drew, i suggest to start with very simple kid art books, like connecting dotts and colouring the figures, that acctivates alot of excitement and art curiosity in your mind 🤩💯

I really enjoy drawing in front of people. It then becomes a kind of performance. And I also find that being slightly distracted with conversations keeps me from sweating the stupid stuff and just blasting something down. I find that when I draw in front of the tv too... just having a slight part of my brain being occupied really keeps my ass in the seat and it prevents me from overworking an area. When I freelanced, I often, at least once a week, did my sketches and prelims at a coffee shop. Sometimes with 3 or 4 other illustrators. I would get SOOOO much work done. And it would be good! Also, being able to bounce off other artists is always a gift. Drawing in front of children is a blast, I feed off of their energy and make silly jokes.

I saw his CGMA class and was considering applying for it too! He seems like a nice guy and a good teacher

Settings intention after intention is a huge tip thats helped me personally progress. I learned that from doing hot yoga to set my intention. But he said it beautifully in this video. Once you felt you achieved one intention then set another. Work in chunks, don't be hard on yourself, and combat the trouble areas. If I catch myself being frustrated with an art piece I stop and come back to it before I completely ruin my intention. Start multiple drawings and come back to one to build on top of it. Take photos of the progression too. Sometimes we become attached to a medium before appling another medium. Take the picture and move on yhis way you don't feel you are leaving potential on the table by leaving a drawing in its current state.

Wow that was excellent. Ive started watching these to try get better with technical stuff and learn some tricks and advice. I have learned a few things that have really helped me with perspective and architecture and stuff but I got more out of Peter talking while drawing for half hr then all 20 or so videos I've watched and practiced along with. Like he said lean back and take it all in I was too focused on what individual bits and very specific pieces I was struggling with and watching this solved my issues on wide scale like I haven't even picked up a pencil but I feel like my struggles are done. Lol I know they aren't but I now have answer that really struck a chord and we're simple and made sense that I can use to get better next time I pick up my pencils. Thank you!! that was monster.

The key skill needed in art is problem solving 1:52, every artist has his own paths to create a beautiful art piece. The more you observe and practice the better you will be.
