Improving Ellipses | Boost Your Skills 4 | Drawing Practice For Beginners
Do these pencil drawing practice exercises to get better at drawing ellipses and to understand how ellipses change when applying perspective!
We'll start with simple exercises to loosen up by sketching ellipses using the hula-hoop method. Then, we'll practice applying perspective to ellipses in relation to a horizon line or eye level.
Finally, practice your sketching and shading skills as you complete a sketchbook project with me. We'll apply perspective to ellipses as we sketch some basic still life objects. As we work on this project you'll also deepen your understanding of how to know where to shade a drawing.
Drawing exercises for improving ellipses:
00:37 Drill 1 - Hulahoop method
04:45 Drill 2 - Controlling ellipses
08.33 Drill 3 - Understanding and applying perspective
15:35 Project - Sketching & Shading Basic 3D Objects
ABOUT THE BOOST YOUR SKILLS SERIES:
This series of drawing lessons is all about making your drawings better! For each lesson I’ll take you through drawing exercises designed to improve one practical aspect of drawing and I’ll show you how you can apply what you’ve learned to a fun sketchbook project.
Use your sketchbook as a place to experiment with these drills and don't worry about how good or bad the drawings look on your page. Write notes as you go to serve as reminders to yourself about what you find challenging or what is helpful.

    Thanks for this very informative first lesson in drawing. I am an absolute beginner at the age of 77 and I love following your lessons. I ma Dutch but I live in Brasil. One thing I noticed while making the fantasy drawing is that in some places the lines smear when you slide over them when drawing another line with e.g. your little finger if you use it as a support. How can I prevent this?

    • @ThePencilRoomOnline
      @ThePencilRoomOnline 3 дні тому

      Very common problem especially for left handers like me 😅 Softer pencils (2B-8B) will smudge more than hard pencils. Aside from turning your page around to avoid resting your hand on the drawing, you can use a paper towel under your hand, over the areas of the drawing you've already done. It may pick up a bit of the graphite from the drawing but it shouldn't smudge it 🙂 Thanks for watching!

    do you use and easel or a flat table? Will a drawing easel help to move from the elbow and shoulder? I'm drawing in a smaller sketch book and on a flat surface. I'm finding it difficult to move from my shoulder and elbow with control. Help?

    • @ThePencilRoomOnline
      @ThePencilRoomOnline 11 днів тому

      For filming I use a flat table. I do have an adjustable drawing easel that I will use if Im drawing on bigger pieces of paper and having something more upright will definitely cause you to work from the shoulder more because it's harder to rest your hand on the page. For a small sketchbook though I will still work on a flat surface. If you are working on a page 8x11" or smaller then it's totally fine to work from the wrist as most of what you draw will fit within that movement. When you need a wider movement for long straight lines or to do quick sketching or gesture drawing, try focusing on allowing the hand to slide on the page with swift movements as you draw, as if you were gently brushing something off your paper with the side of your hand. This is the same as working from the elbow/shoulder but it might be a little bit easier to think about!

      @@HansBauer-cb2cg Check out this video about different grips: ua-cam.com/video/_70yJ36fNXc/v-deo.htmlsi=nGoOlyUfDYpdU5BX At this stage though, don't worry about the different grips so much as practicing moving your pencil in different directions/movements and allowing the hand to move on the page too (using your regular grip). I talk about it a bit in this video ua-cam.com/video/jp2C_tx5MuI/v-deo.htmlsi=wqrKtlNKgTzUT0cB which is a good one for figuring out where you might have some restrictions. It's not so much about doing things 'right' as it is about increasing your coordination and range of movement which only comes through practice. Mix up your practice with exercises and also just having a go at drawing something you are interested in :)

    Hello, Is it wrong to have a grip similar to the tripod grip, but instead of the thumb being at the base, it holds the side of the pencil and grips the index finger? This is how I have always held a pencil, and I don't know if it's bad.

    • @ThePencilRoomOnline
      @ThePencilRoomOnline 11 днів тому

      Nope its not bad. Think of the tripod grip as whatever way you normally hold a pen to write with - that will be the easiest grip for you to use to draw with but it's good to practice overhand grip and loose grip to give you different types of movement ☺

Everything thing you say and show are in fact very important to learn and do. Why?! Because everything you teach will be used in some form or fashion regardless of what a person decides to draw! With out practice in the skills you teach a person will never achieve the level of results in their drawings that they may desire it to be. Practice, practice, practice. With out it you'll never become proficient in drawing. In fact, almost anything you do in life requires practice to become very good at what you do and don't forget to continually learn new things to improve your skills!

    What is being done her, with the leaf, isn't nearly as easy as it appears to be! A few folks can do it. I saw my mother draw by looking at a photo of some birds. When she was done it looked exactly like the birds in the picture. I was amazed! That started my interest in drawing. Yet, even today I have difficulty in drawing an object by looking at a photo and getting it as good as she did. She could draw it the same size but, couldn't get it to look right drawing it larger. She said she draws what she sees in the proportion she sees it and could do it any larger. To bad she wasn't aware of the methods that are used to draw it larger.

    • @ThePencilRoomOnline
      @ThePencilRoomOnline 16 днів тому

      That's interesting about your mother being able to draw at the same size! Getting proportions correct with contour drawing like in this video gets easier the more you do it. Speaking of drawing size, I definitely find that students and myself included have a comfortable drawing size that is unique - some people naturally draw small and some people naturally draw large (some people like your mother just have a good eye!). But yes it's good we have methods to check proportions at any size! Thanks for your comment and for watching :)

I had no idea that there was any other way to hold a pencil apart from the one that I was taught. I couldn't sleep last night and decided to watch some videos on drawing. I started out with the Standard grip with some success, but then changed to the Loose grip, the results were much better and I found that I could be more fluid in my drawing. Thanks for teaching this Middle-aged dog some new tricks.

Wrist drawing provides me with more stability, but its a problem for long flowy lines... and I also ended up with an injury that wont go away.

    Thank you for sharing this. Can you tell us how to draw the perspective lines if your vanishing point is way outside the edges of your paper? Like if your are working from life & want to draw a building. Many thanks

    • @ThePencilRoomOnline
      @ThePencilRoomOnline 25 днів тому

      That's a tricky one as its actually quite difficult to see the perspective by eye when you are drawing from real life - at least not without a measuring tool. You can use a pencil lined up with the angles of the top and bottom edges of a building and then name that angle (eg. 30 degrees) and draw that same angles in your sketchbook. That will give you a basic idea of where the vanishing points might be outside your piece of paper. You can then use your knowledge of 2pt perspective to make sure everything fits with the rules: eg. everything above eye level will slant downwards towards vanishing point, everything below eye level will slant upwards towards vanishing point. Hope that makes sense :) So its a mixture of observation and estimation. Which is why it's very useful to do the basic box exercises for 1pt and 2pt perspective to have a really good understanding of how it works!

You might think you can practice five times a week but its probably better to practice 2-3 times a week and be really consistent with it. Best of luck!

    Do you sharpen tortillons the same way as blending stumps?

      You probably can but I don't sharpen the tortillons. They tend to get a bit fluffy when you use sandpaper to clean them, because of the ridges of paper. Tortillons also have a slightly rounded end which is quite nice to work with so I just rub them clean on a spare piece of paper :)
