Simply put, just draw by intuition. Just draw. Don't judge right or wrong, good or bad, like it or not, and don't even start judging whether I can do it before I start.
We are used to the left brain every day, which is in charge of rational thinking and habitual judgment, while painting is a perceptual thing. Say goodbye to reason.
2. sideline business
Generally speaking, if painting is to draw an object or a character, then the outline of the sideline is essential.
On the whole, there are natural phenomena such as heaven and earth, ocean and continent. On a smaller scale, the outline of an object. When doing this step, you can just draw the outline at first, and don't care about the details. You can even fascinate your eyes to help you just look at the outline.
Details can be added slowly and bit by bit later.
3. Light and shadow
The most straightforward words are black, white and gray. If you want to make an object more stereoscopic, you need to show light and shadow.
In fact, the method is also very simple. Find the darkest place to show it, and the picture will have a three-dimensional sense in an instant. And there is a simpler way to operate, that is, pick up the phone and take a black-and-white photo of the picture you want to draw, and then the light and shadow will appear immediately.
4. Space/relationship
In fact, energy is perspective and proportion. One-point perspective and two-point perspective, which are common in painting, can be found by searching online, which is quite easy to understand. Proportion is to make things not too disproportionate. Generally, there are some routines, such as three courts and five eyes, seven heads and seven bodies, slapping and so on.
This knowledge is understandable, so don't emphasize it deliberately, but limit your writing.
When you really want to practice proportional perspective, the simplest thing is to use your brush to find the "Unit One" on the screen, so that you can use the length of its projection on the pen to judge how many units the next stroke should be.
5. From black and white to color
In fact, when you have a good grasp of black and white, color can be easily solved. Use a unified color system from deep to light to express the darkness of light and shadow. People with good color sense can even draw colors directly without black and white practice.
6. Action
In fact, I use more, think more, and see more, so I might as well pick up the strokes and draw a picture. Painting, painting, how do you know what you are painting without painting?
If you really want to learn painting, then find your favorite and most touching works and start copying them. Even if you only draw two strokes a day, you will make progress than before. Little by little, drawing little by little is the key. Only when you draw can you know where it is insufficient and where it needs improvement and promotion.
If you have decided to start painting, you should make your first stroke quickly. An ordinary pen and an ordinary book can start your painting path (* *).
