??? | "Your attitude determines your altitude." These are frequently asked questions I hear a lot, will put some of my opinions on these :0 Q: How do I break art block? A: Art block is the cause when your eye expectations is higher than your hand expectations. You are feeling unconfident. So try to avoid making yourself more unconfident by exposing to great artist for awhile. Instead you should expose yourself with real life objects, calm down and rest. Instead of forcing yourself to draw difficult stuff, just do some small sketches to boost your confidences back. Sycra's Video has talked on this topic, check it out! Click Me! Q: I have my own style, it does not really mean that I need to learn fundamentals, right? A: Is ok to have a style, but taking the basics away is like a house without a base. Fundamentals are there to make your artwork looks right. After understanding how these fundamentals work, you can start breaking the law of fundamentals (like exaggerating anatomy parts) but you do them in a way that they are still functionally right. That will be your style.
What's Fundamentals, exactly? Every artist says differently! Personally, my interpretation of Art Fundamentals are logical understanding of what we know in real life, & being able to recreate and expand on with techniques that helps us show what we want to say clearly. Should I learn it? mm... It's just a tool that enables you to show what you want to say in your drawing clearly to other people & make them feel what you want them to feel without anything distracting or have any misunderstandings. Do I really need to know it all? There's no need in mastering all of them, but it's encouraged to learn as much as you can! Especially if you want to make art as a job. :sweat_drops: When doing artworks for other people/ clients, they will want you convey their ideas & not yours. The less you know about fundamentals, it would be harder for you to create what they have in mind. There's also many different types of art, which leads to different art jobs! Sycra has sorted out the different fundamentals for each jobs. Where do I start & How? There are many terms and small categories but these are the main 3: Anatomy, Perspective & Composition They will be covered in details below with tutorials from other artists to guide you.  Anatomy Anatomy is the study of how things work, whether if it is a human, plant, animal or even machines! As artist, we do not need to learn anatomy until the extreme parts like biologists do. But we need to at least know what some muscles or parts of that object work. We can learn anatomy commonly online as there are a lot of videos and tutorials around, but by reading reference books of the things you want to draw (preferably books with explanations) is also a good way, Looking at an object from different angles like your own hand helps too! !NOTE! Anatomy studies may require you to look at nude as references. Perspective Perspective is how we view something if it is close or far, a sense of depth or space around us. Sometimes when we see some artworks with bad perspective, we cannot relate on how it works because: -Either we do not know what height we are looking from -Out of proposition. (can be by anatomy as well) -Not understanding where is the object is placed on. Thats why perspective is important for landscape artworks, it does not confuse your audiences looking at it. I have came across a really detailed tutorial of Perspective which shows examples of perspective as well as teaching you the point perspective Detailed Tutorial of Perspective Composition Composition is defined to arrange or organize different elements (angle, light, object placement) that draws eye attention to the picture's main focus. In most parts, composition is always refered to 'Elements of Design' and 'Elements of Art' In these sub categories, there are alot of topics to cover. I gather 2 sites that explains them really well yet simple :3. Elements of Art Elements of Design Throughout all these, there is one more rule that helps to give good composition,: The Rules of Third This fun guy down here explains to us why it is important in good composition! You should check it out: Secret to Good Composition These are additional tutorials or references of fundamentals and other additional tips.
