Welcome to the Fundamentals of Drawing!
In this intro video, you’ll get to know your course instructor, Maria Lia Malandrino, and also get a quick overview of what you will learn in this course. She is really excited to help you start your artistic journey on the right foot. Having entered the art world later on without formal education, be encouraged that it’s never too late to start!
There’s so much in store for you here!
Tempat terbaik untuk memulai: Anatomi manusia!
Anatomi adalah subjek yang sangat luas sehingga seluruh mata kuliah dikhususkan untuk topik ini saja. Namun demikian, pelajaran ini merupakan titik awal yang baik untuk memandumu dalam menggambar tubuh manusia dan proporsinya secara anatomis yang benar.
In this second lesson of Human Anatomy, Maria talks about three fundamental aspects of drawing a human body: muscle, fat and bone.
These three are the most visible elements of a person’s appearance. Without knowledge of the characteristics & structure of bones, muscles and fat, it’s harder to draw believable characters and poses.
Maria teaches the theory behind head and face anatomy as well as covers practical methods to draw faces with correct proportions (always keep in mind that heads are round, not flat).
You will learn a simple way to understand the head shape and discover how to draw any head with ease in just 3 steps!
When starting out, you’ll find the famous Loomis method to be quite useful in understanding the relation between the various elements in the face and where they are positioned. Maria breaks down and explains this method in detail, giving you clear guidelines so you no longer have to wonder why the ear you just drew looks a bit off. 🙂
Whatʼs every artistʼs worst nightmare? Drawing hands!
But worry no more! You will quickly learn how to draw hands correctly using the Loomis method and also get some cool bonus tips from Maria’s personal experience of how to tackle drawing these troublesome body parts.
This lesson will help you grasp the basics of the five different perspectives, so you understand when and how to use them to give your artwork realistic depth. And since we learn best by doing, Maria also includes several perspective grids as homework files for you to practice on. How cool is that? 🙂
This lesson builds on what you learnt in the previous one. Follow along with Maria as she explains how to apply the principles of perspective to drawing complex character poses. It’s a great way to simplify the process, so even if a pose seems daunting – you can tackle it!
It’s sometimes easy to forget that hands and fingers are 3D objects, so they end up looking flat. In this tutorial, you’ll discover useful tips for drawing hands in perspective, difficult angles or even just normal positions that somehow seem difficult at first — we’ve all been there! 😉 You’ll get the hang of this in no time!
Gesture/life drawing is about force and movement – it means capturing the dynamics of a pose in a few short minutes and transferring it to paper.
Practicing life drawing regularly is the best thing you can do to improve your skills. Most of the times it is exactly like going to the gym: initially you donʼt feel like going, but when do, you feel great after!
This lesson covers a necessary building block to life drawing – an understanding of lines and blocking. If you draw a shape with lines that lack form no amount of shading will make it a stronger sketch. Watch Maria’s methods for sketching and blocking effectively to give your characters a realistic 3D shape.
The line of action is the imaginary line passing through the core of the body identifying the energy running through the movement of the pose. Learning where to place it and using it as the basis of a sketch will give your art more dynamic flow. You will also learn about the directional axis so your characters will be balanced correctly.
When masses are balanced in the body, it results a more harmonious figure. This sense of weight is very useful in figure drawing, making a character look more believable and real. Discover just how to achieve this effect in this tutorial.
The last step in figure drawing!
Maria will show you how to complete your sketch by adding shapes to it. You’ll also get a quick summary of the entire gesture drawing process. Additionally, Maria demonstrates how to create both a realistic and stylized figure and explains the differences.
Creating great characters for a story is a bit like telling a lie—taking something mundane and transforming it into a fascinating and majestic work of art.
This video moves away from realism, and into the world of cartoons, letting your imagination and creativity take over. It’s great fun!
In this practice video, Maria shares with you a fun exercise designed to take you out of your comfort zone and free your imagination!
Clothes are a big part of what makes a character stand out – what makes them unique. They not only identify a characterʼs culture, background and time
period, but they say a lot about their personality. Learn her methods and tips as Maria discusses this subject in detail.
Follow along as Maria demonstrates her step-by-step process for drawing a character’s outfit. You can also look forward to some useful general advice for drawing clothes that will significantly enhance your illustrations.
When a human being is happy or excited their whole body shows it and the face will transform to accommodate the expression. Their attitude and charisma not limited just to the position of the mouth, eyes or eyebrows.
You’ll learn how to simplify human emotion with expression sheets and discover valuable insight for creating compelling expressions.
Hurray! You’ve made it to the last lesson! Now you have a solid foundation of the fundamentals of drawing. Well done!!!
Join Maria in this last video for a quick summary of what you learned and a review of the most important points. As each individual topic could be explored much further, she also includes a reading list of recommended books that you can have a look at. Enjoy!
