ART TUTORIAL: Linear sketch

in #art7 years ago


Sketching is a really important artistic process to improve or support your existing skills. We can use our short sketches as ideas for illustrations or large paintings and we start every detailed drawing from an impression of a sketch both in digital and traditional media. To draw a sketch you just need a paper (any kind of quality, it can be even a napkin) and pencil, pen, coal stick, anything that can make a line. Of course, it can be a digital graphics editor.

When you are drawing a sketch try to work very fast and without any measuring. Your subjective impression of a model is really important, it's even more important than authenticity in some case. You can make linear, tonal and combined types of sketches with various styles and tasks in mind. Identify your points of interest, if you are drawing a human it can be a face, hands, and feet. for example. Draw more, create some challenges for yourself (draw only in tone, with eyes closed, without taking a hand off the paper, etc.). And also really important - have fun!
