This week I looked into more simple videos for beginners. They all had the same kind of technique draw a circle then draw reference lines from various facial features like the top of face, nose, eyes, eyebrows, mouth, bottom of face and then draw the details and then they have a face. By drawing these lines it helps line up where you want to put the facial features and not make it so one eye is higher than another.
What I learned from watching these videos is it takes a lot of practice to make the exact features and if i want to succeed in this project I will have to focus more and to get rid of all distraction and learn more of what the videos says. I also need to take advice and ask them for the flaws in my art instead of what I did good so I can fix and learn from my mistakes and get better. While doing my first art piece for this project I didn't do as well as I wanted to. I realized that I'm going to have practice a lot more because the more I practice then the better I can get. I also learned that it takes a lot of time and effort to do this but as I was doing this it was also relaxing and calming so it is worth it.

Whenever I had nothing to do or when I was bored I'd always try to draw random things like random faces or a character or scene from the show I was watching. I always wanted to get better at it but I never had the time to really work on it and focus more on the details. So for this project, I want to focus on becoming a better illustrator and taking my time with it and my art looking very close to the real thing. How? I will start this project by watching videos for beginners then I will do this for the first three weeks. During these weeks I will be taking advice from my art teachers on how to start my project. I already asked for their advice and they said to focus on the shading and the different values between the light and dark parts of my artwork they also said to become a better artists you have to learn the different angles of faces to really understand and find more details so you can draw them better. Inspiration I thought to help me more on this project I should have all different types of inspiration. All artists have a special and specific way, when doing their art so I thought I would use that to help me find out my way of doing art. I would do that by watching videos of people explaining the artist process. I will also look up articles of the different artists and how they lived their lives as an artist and how they viewed the world also what their inspiration was to create their master and famous art pieces. |
