In today's video, I will be teaching you guys how to become better at just flat out drawing. Main thing you want to focus on to become a better artist, all around artist is practice and practice on your weaknesses and train your eye, you know what I'm saying? Because all it is is copying exactly what you see. So the more you train your eye and try to make it as accurate as possible, you know what I'm saying? Over time, you'll become a better artist. So practice repetition and you got to stick to it, man. You got to stay grinding. So what we're going to do is we're going to try to copy this picture I found on Pinterest. You got to shade on one side of the face and that'll be good, you know what I'm saying? Start out with this picture. So first thing we're going to do is find this little pencil and I always start out like with the color pink, you know what I'm saying? When I'm doing the sketches, I just like it. So what we're going to do is we're going to try to copy the shape of everything, you know what I'm saying? And we're going to slowly bring in the detail, you know what I'm saying? So we're going to copy exactly what we see. So right now what I'm doing, I'm just mapping everything out. We're going to clean it up later, but one thing we're trying to get get everything in the right proportions. If you do this, if you just pick some time to practice daily, eventually you'll just give it a year. You'll just become like a a beast or you'll see a big dramatic improvement in your art, you know what I'm saying? You just got to practice. Just like all the NBA players, when you be watching them, you be like, dang, how is he so good? How can Kobe just go scope 50 points? We only see the games. We don't see the times them boys spending, the men spending hours in the gym. When practice over, they still in there practicing, you know what I'm saying? They still in there putting up shots, lifting weights, running mouths, getting up early. You got to do the same thing if you serious about becoming a better artist. You know what I'm saying? The key is you can never stop learning. So if you can never stop learning, you always can get better. You know what I'm saying? So just practice. You got to stay practicing, stay focused and you got to have some confidence. I know a lot of people when they message me, they, I hear a lot of folks say, I'm not as good as you. I'm not. I'm not. I can't. I can't. They are already going at it with the wrong mindset. You got to all automatically have some type of confidence about yourself. Like I'm going to get there. You know what I'm saying? Never say nothing negative about what you're doing because you got to start from somewhere. Just like I did. Like I don't, I'm not truly the best artist, but I got confidence in myself. Like I know I can draw anything and I can get better and become the best artist because that's my goal. You know what I'm saying? But you got to stay positive and you got to stay grounded. You got to always work. So what I'm doing, I'm just, I'm going back and I'm trying to get it as close as I can with the original picture. I'm slowly, slowly adding the detail. Just slowly adding in and that, and this is how you train your eye. Just by looking at the picture and just adding piece by piece the details you see. And kind of focus on one section. Like see right here. I'm just focusing like every time I stroll down, I focus on one section. Then I go to that one section on my picture. Then I ease my way down, focus on this section. Then I just do the same thing. You got to, you got to do it piece by piece. It's like a puzzle. And I see areas that can be switched. And when you're working on your sketch, don't be afraid to erase and get it right. Just keep going back and forth getting it right until you finally got it looking exactly how you see it, see it post the look from your reference you're using. I see I got to make this face come out a little, a little wider. My face is too slim. That's what I'm noticing. This little guy straight. I see that bottom of his ear is coming over to his nose when you just keep building. Do guys, it's just the practice man. Just stay practicing. And also remember shading is a part of drawing too. So just like we're trying to train our eyes to see the line work, you got to train your eyes to see what the shadows at, what the light tones at, what the dark tones at. And you just piece it together slowly. So all we're doing right now is just, we're just practicing. And the more you do this, trust me, you'll see a big improvement in your overall become a better artist. The more you practice, you can't just say you want to be the best. You got to go out there and work. You know what I'm saying? Put some work in. That's what I be saying. I'm telling y'all to grind. And if y'all was wondering, did I go to school for art? Now I'm self-taught, just bliss with a gift. You know what I'm saying? But just like anything, you still got to work. Even if you, even if you're blessed with natural talent, you still got to work at it. Self-taught, never went to school for it. But that's all you do. Like when you're drawing, you just piece together all the detail slowly, white. And then your picture slowly come together. You just slowly build and draw exactly what you see. Like train your eye. There you have it, you guys. A little practice. All you got to do is make sure you get you some practice in daily. You know what I'm saying? Train your eyes to draw exactly what you see. And just you'll get better in time, man. More heat coming soon. Make sure you stay tuned. I'm out this time.
