I started with drawing humans of course. There is no better start than a complex pose of a human. No pain, no gain. Right?

First master piece

But let me show the first trials. I got the image from an app named ArtPose Pro.

Garrr.. I am a bit disappointed. I thought it would be easy. What went wrong, huh?

Lucky me: my sister is a motion designer, so she should know how to draw. It took even not a second to show me how it can be done better.

She has spotted the absence of simple shapes. One of the first things an artist does, is to break the subject of interest into basic geometry shapes.

Second run

Let’s choose a simpler subject. Here we go again…

You see the difference? Instead of get the entire object in the first run, I create basic intermediate shapes.

Daily practice

Another hint of my sister is doing practice. You can read all books of the world about drawing. If you have no practice, it will be harder.

It is a learning process for your hands and your experience about human anatomy.
