Do you want to learn to sketch?

I often see many students in the forum asking these questions:

Don't want to learn sketches to learn oil paintings?

How to learn how to sketch?

The sketch is too boring, what can I do if I can't keep going?

Some people say that sketch is the foundation, but I want to draw a picture and have fun, but also to learn?

......


So, do you want to learn to sketch? ?

Now put your little hand on your conscience,

Start to ask yourself 3 steps



First question: Do you know what a sketch is?


To some degree: sketch, sketch in a broad sense, refers to all monochrome paintings, originating from the cultivation of Western modeling ability. Sketch in the narrow sense refers to the painting training process used to study art skills, explore modeling rules, and cultivate professional habits.


Now there are a lot of professional books, professional courses, the first chapter will introduce what the sketch is, in order to correct everyone's attitude towards learning sketch (after all, the sketch really needs to calm down!). In fact, from the definition of the sketches of the various authorities, refining is such a four points:

Originated from the Western Ocean

2. Explore the law of modeling

3. Develop professional habits

4. A training of painting

Da Vinci sketch


Second question: What do you want to paint?

Sketching is a form of training. Taking a chestnut, like running, is a form of physical exercise. It can be seen as the basis of a sport, an introduction, but if your goal is to participate in the 800m running of the school games, then you need to practice basic running and practice your durability; if your goal is to lose weight That doesn't necessarily require running, you can do yoga, control your appetite or even liposuction.

So all roads lead to Rome, but you must first know if you are going to Rome or Australia.

››Possibility 1: I want to learn Chinese painting


Qi Baishi painting

Chinese painting, Chinese traditional painting form; and sketch, originated in the West. The cultural background and spiritual understanding behind Chinese painting and sketching are vastly different.


Chinese painting, the picture is flat; and the sketch is used to solve the spatial modeling problems such as three-dimensional and perspective in painting. Even if you want to draw realistic Chinese painting, its spatial technique and the focus of the sketch are completely different.


In summary, in the perspective of students studying Chinese painting, "the person who is new to painting must learn to sketch first" is untenable. For students who draw Chinese painting, if you choose to carry out sketch training, you should also choose to be a teacher. Be careful not to over-represent the realism. Instead, you should stand on the thinking of Chinese painting and pay more attention to the "meaning".



››Possibility 2: I want to learn oil painting


Sunflower - Van Gogh

Oil painting is one of the main paintings of Western painting. I want to emphasize it with you. Don't try to learn oil painting yourself!

Self-study means: go shopping for a certain degree, listen to Amway's Amway, then buy a lot of expensive oil painting tools, buy a few books, and watch the online oil painting tutorial for a few minutes.


Why do I stress not to try to learn to paint myself?


First of all, no matter what the entry, self-study is more difficult than others.


Learning, in fact, there are shortcuts. The methodology that others have matured is a broader field of expertise than you, and is a shortcut for Xiaobai. Even if the big touch can't fly you, he will teach you to look at the field he has entered more macroscopically and deeply.


Secondly, oil painting is really expensive, really.




A treasure is easy to search

You, self-study white, one handcuffed, a few hundred soft sister coins are abolished.

If you insist on painting, just happy, then you can consider using propylene. The color of acrylic is that it will be done just after painting, it is suitable for people who just painted colors.

The technique of oil painting can not be mastered by zero basis. If you don’t study oil painting, report to class, or professional study, then you must take sketches seriously.


why? Why?

In the old saying of the ancestors, it is said that the sharpening of the knife does not mistake the woodworker, and the worker must first sharpen his weapon if he wants to do something good;

In foreign languages: Drawing, it is the source and essence of oil painting, sculpture, architecture and other kinds of painting (drawing, it is the source and essence of oil painting, sculpture, architecture and other kinds of paintings - Michelangelo)

If you don’t study Chinese painting or oil painting, then the third question


The third question: I paint to swear


›› Interests - you can make money later

There is a saying that interest is the best teacher. Although many people will have a "three-point heat", and then he will be stunned, anyway, I am like this (crying).

So the suggestion here is to grasp this "three-point heat", pick up the brush, find out what you want to copy, don't think of anything else, copy it!


Why I am not suggesting, pick up the brush, set the apple, draw a sketch!


Because it is undeniable that sketching is boring, it is technical, and it is time consuming. You worked hard for a long time, painted for a long time, dealt with the shadow grinding for a long time, and finally painted a black lacquered apple (may not be painted like hahahahaha), do you think that the painting of the little flame is a large pot Cold water "å“—-"


If you can grasp your three-point heat, you can slowly draw your favorite paintings, and slowly improve, the three-point heat will become 10 points, 30 points...80 points, at this time, you Maybe you will encounter painting bottlenecks, then juvenile, you should consider the system to learn the sketch!

The benefits of sketch training at this time are:

1. In terms of technique, there has been a certain understanding of painting, and learning sketching will be relatively simple.

2. Psychologically, no longer hesitate to learn to sketch, but to improve his painting ability through sketching, solve problems in the painting process, and learn to become a knowledgeable and positive thing.

3. There is already a lot of interest in motivation! Even if it is boring, it will not kill my painting love!


››I want to make money - make money urgently

If the goal of your painting is to make money, I suggest you go to learn sketching from the beginning.

Q: Is sketching time consuming? I am in a hurry to make money!

A: Yes, it takes time, but this is the basis, the foundation is good, and your future works can sell money! Unless you have great confidence in your talent.


Q: Do you spend your time practicing sketching without spending time on your own style?

A: I want to draw a piece of work, just like I want to reach a destination. Nowadays, many mainstream advocates the learning method of “sketch-gouache-sketch”. This does not mean that you can draw a good picture and you can only follow this path. As I said before, to a destination, some people go on high speed, some people will choose to take the path, and most people will tell you that the highway is wide and straight, you can drive high speed as long as you have a driver's license for more than 1 year. But there are also many friends who will take the path for various reasons, nor can they not go to the destination.

Why would you recommend the "Sketch-Powder-Sketch" method here? Just like walking the road, you know that when you go, the destination is there, after all, most people go this way. But what about the path? You will get lost, you will bend around, even if you are not on the wrong road, when you step on the soft mud, your heart will not doubt that your choice will not be shaken? This is a very painful process.


Q: I have no motivation to learn to sketch...

A: Power... Do you need to give me chicken soup to make money? ? ?




In summary, sketching is definitely helpful for painting.

but,

You don't have to learn!

You don't necessarily need to think of sketching as an entry to learn!


Finally, I wish everyone can become a big hit.
