Tips on how to make your art better!

Well... here we are! Here are some tips and methods that I use when I draw! [Note: You don't have to take my advice if you don't want to! It's totally up to you!]

                                            The Basics

1) Have a clear space to work on.

2) Have the right kind of materials for the sketch or painting you want to do.

 3) For the full body sketch of people, I suggest starting at the head, and working your way down. [If you're a beginner] If you're a amateur, then work from the bottom, to the top. [feet to head]

4) For animals, do a rough sketch lightly, [The skeletal figure] of the animal. Then start on the outline and work your way onto details.

5) Always use pencil first! If you use pen first, it will come out, well, kinda weird-looking. If you have a steadier hand, then you can try pen. If your hand is a bit shaky when you draw, use pencil and have a eraser handy!

6) Never doubt your abilities, and have a creative mind! Remember, everyone can draw, it's just the styles that set them apart!

 

Well, there you have it! 6 great tips on how to draw better! I'll have more tips coming soon, so keep your eyes out for them! See ya in the art world!
