My four driving principles in art

 


My four driving principles in art are :-

1. Treat (head, hands, feet) as separate and clothes as separate. This helps me in cartoons very much.

2. Cosine hatching. Cosine hatching has helped me in getting realistic shadings.

3. Triangular mesh with contour shading. A more 3d look can be given if we follow the triangular mesh method with contour shading inside the triangles.

4. PDCA drawing improvement method for living things like humans, animals; and DMAIC drawing improvement method for man-made things like furniture, buildings.

Goodbye, folks.

Skull model

I wanted to improve my portraits and caricatures drawing. 

I had ordered skull model from Amazon.in. It arrived a while back.

Practices with this skull in drawing will definitely improve my portraits and caricatures. 

Thanks to Amazon.

SAIL township, Ranchi

My foldable chair arrived yesterday. 

But I did not use it. Instead I clicked a photo and drew this from mobile image. 

This is my first drawing of Ranchi SAIL Satellite Colony. 

Is art level 85 to 90 feasible?

I have interacted with Google Gemini and I have found that my art level is 50 to 55.

The greats like Proko, Kim Jung Gi,  Rembert Montald,  David Finch are 95 to 100.

Can I reach 85 to 90 level ? This is the question I asked myself. 

I am interested in 1. Objects in front drawing.  2. Comics drawing.  3. Anatomy drawing. 

Luckily,  I have an analytical mind and have mapped my weaknesses.  They are

1. My perspective point changes over time when drawing an objectin front. Possibly I have fish eye problem and I need conscious correction.

2. Form making of shapes imagined or seen,  is weak. I have weaknesses in 3d carvings, 3d mannequins. I need practices. 

3. Shading. My shading is average and my shading need to speak. So to say. I need improvement. 

If I improve first ;5 points will rise. If I improve second ;10 points. And if I improve third; 20 points.

Then I shall reach 85 to 90.

My Ranchi Quarters

Here are 7 drawings that I did in last 4 days of my Ranchi quarters.








I thought of getting a feedback through number of viewership and your valuable comments. Before I get into township drawings. 

I am still waiting for my foldable chair.  And Anatomy book.
