So I Figured Out This Really Easy Trick A While Ago And I Needed To Share It With Yall

so i figured out this really easy trick a while ago and i needed to share it with yall

im sure this has already been done or figured out before but i haven’t seen a lot of blood tutorials using this technique so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hi! Is it really necessary to learn how to draw the actual skeleton first in drawing humans?

Hey! While I wouldn’t say it’s absolutely necessary to draw the skeleton per say (though I highly, HIGHLY, HIGHLY advise it!), I would say that it’s vital to understand the skeleton of any creature! I have this feeling (based on art experience, especially college) that people never really explain why fundamentals are important, and so there’s this sorta confusion about “Why are we drawing skeletons, why are we studying anatomy”, and that’s exactly how I always thought. I dismissed really taking the time to internalize skeletal/muscle structure and it took a very heavy toll on my work. I improved at a snails pace. The moment I decided to understand WHY something moved the way it did, and the internal structure beneath, I made leaps and bounds of improvement! Drawing and studying the skeleton/muscle will help you grasp how things work and I pinky promise you it’ll feel like you’ve found that secret MarioKart 64 shortcut and place 1st in the Rainbow Road, it’s great

shading colour tips

hey yall its me the Art Mom™ to help you shade pretty

rule 1: DO NOT SHADE WITH BLACK. EVER. IT NEVER LOOKS GOOD. 

red- shade with a slightly darker shade of purple

orange- slightly darker and more saturated shade of red

yellow- i think like..a peach could work but make it a really light peach

green- shade with darker and less saturated shade of blue or teal

blue- shade with purple

purple- a shade thats darker than the purple you’re using and maybe a little pink (MAYBE blue)

pink- darker shade of red

white- a really light lavender or blue..or i guess any really light colour??

black- okay listen dont use pure black to colour anything unless you want to leave it with flat colours because you cant really shade black lol

grey- a slightly darker shade of purple or blue (less saturated)

brown- slightly darker and less saturated shade of purple or red

aaaaand thats all i got lol. let me know if there is anything i should add to this list!!

My whole process~
