It seems like magic, but these last few days I have been starting to get serious about studying the basics of drawing and this will serve me well as a general guide, thanks blue!

[@rommdan2716]

Drawing and magic aren't that different when you think about, both trick the brain into seeing something that's not actually there

[@Ciorno2K]

Real when you study your fundamentals then go back to drawing like what you want to draw it feels like you ascended

[@nahoolux]

Anatomy is very fundamental if your goal is to learn about forms and perspective. But in my opinion, the gestual is just as valid and I dare to say it's more practical to first learn about the fluidy and silhouette of the object, body and etc, then limit yourself with the rough forms. Just a simple tip for y'all :)

[@mizuena5321]

I think you've got it backwards, while there is no "wrong" way to study things - knowing perspective and proportions first are absolutely fundamental and having a good understanding of that first would make learning the nitty gritty aspect of anatomy and the other fundamentals alot more flexible Methinks people prioritize anatomy too much when these two things are really the things that carry the fundamentals, alongside gesture and structure too! Because if you weren't to learn these, how would you move those body parts in an environment and in a way that also feels smooth and not extremely stiff?

I took a break and I’m just getting back into drawing as well, this video honestly helps a lot 😊

[@CookisxMilkx]

BROOO I WAS LIKE “Idk what to do i feel like it’s just the same quality as the last one and I wanna start studying more…” LIKE, TODAY. THEN LATER ON I GET THIS NOTIF. HEEEELLLLPPPPPPP.

[@nowl3491]

i've had a really bad art block these last few months and decided to go back to practice the basics because I know I need to improve. THEN THIS LITERALLY SHOWS UP LIKE???? THANK YOU BLUE I REALLY NEEEDED THIS

[@luishoc]

Good video, is a nice introduction to the most important fundamentals, i would just say (7:13) that saturation can be better defined as how pure a color is, the less pure it is, the closer is to be gray

[@marama619]

This is such perfect timing. I've gone through an art block for nearly 3 weeks and this video came right when I wanted to get back into drawing. Tysm!!

[@Oocoo2]

How on earth could you sense I'm 2 months into art block, hating my art and wishing i knew how to start studying more. The timing is impeccable dude, tysm!!!

[@mysteryinkii6160]

This came at the perfect moment I've just been hating my art Midway through 2023-24 and just didn't draw at all this summer. I'll use this when school starts up to get back into art so thank you Blue. 😊

[@CHK-x7s]

I recently felt that my drawing skills lacked a foundation, so thank you for explaining the basics in detail. I found it particularly fascinating how you explained shading through drawing. I look forward to watching more of your informative videos in the future!

[@celuthien]

I love the way you explain each point and having so many visual aides, thank you!

[@banheezone]

Thanks for talking about studying different artists/art from media. There are a lot of artists and art in media that have styles that make me go: "I want to draw like that" yet I haven't tried to sit down and figure out how exactly they do it yet.

this is actually crazy because i stopped drawing like 2 years ago, i can still draw well just not consistently, and I really wanna start again so tysm!!

[@wolfieverse]

Thank u for saying it is important to know the fundamentals! It really opens everything up and can help alot!

[@snowykritter]

woah this is such a well structured video. ive always drawn a lot since i was little and i don think im terrible at it but like i never really knew what i was doing and how to make art intentional. i never really learned these fundamentals besides learning them implicitly the more i drew, but i think i know where to start taking my art onto the next level now. thanks :D

[@litte3boy]

Love seeing how your sprite changes over time

[@yippeee-gk7kq]

Blue this is random but you ALWAYS have the PERFECT videos for everything. Everyone always says study art but I’ve always wanted someone to do a video on what I’m meant to study in the first place. I’ve thought that for years but especially the past few weeks, and then you upload this? You’re Psychich 😭 and all your other videos are exactly what I needed too! Easily one of, if not my favorite art KZbinrs!

[@Feli_Moonlight]

What a lovely video❤ I've been a bit soft stuck in my art growth not knowing where to grow and what to focus first, this is a huuuge help! thank you for the great video! 👋🏻 ✨

0:01 for some unknown reason, youtube puts timed comments on top, which is really dumb and they need to fix that

[@derpiedoxie]

Well damn I never noticed that before Also this was literally the first comment I saw on this video one second in so… can confurm

@@derpiedoxie I tested it on another phone, and everything was fine, but when I updated the youtube app, the glitch worked. So the latest update broke something.

[@SkywardWords]

BLUE THIS IS WHY YOURE THE GOAT

[@fallingheadphones]

This is great stuff!! Been doing art a long time, but I’ve recently circled back around to studying the basics again. Already it’s had such a positive effect on my art, and I’ve really only started with form and perspective. So much to learn!!! :)

[@Cr3zy4rtist]

You have been helping me with my art so much you’ve been giving great advice and your art is AMAZING and so are you! Thank you 😊

[@SaltamontesbaldosaHas]

This 2024 it has been wild in drawing for me. I am exploring and experimenting A LOT. Right now i am looking at an online course about character design, expressions and anatomy this was like a WILD change my improvement went so high :D

[@gentlescrubswoosh]

I've been feeling like my art is becoming inconsistent yet theres not really any improvement, so this helps! I used the perspective boxes and drew them.. messed up the first time but I like my second attempt! Some of them are different sizes though so I gotta work on being consistent.

[@Mage-y7v]

You are the most amazing person, thank you so much!

[@ImNotKeqing]

7:57 You just inspired me to make a composition study because of the golden spiral, the spiral reminded me of water bending.

[@cvanide]

I really recommend the book Color and Light by James Gurney for both beginner and intermediate artists!! It touches on a lot of different techniques (and some other fundamentals) and choices that i never would’ve thought of myself, and i could see improvement in my colours and composition choices pretty quickly. (It is marketed as for realist painters but even so, all art styles are of course inspired by real life, so it still could help you in other ways even if you don’t paint realism, like me.)
