In this video I talk about how I learned anatomy from CZcams and other free online resources as I redevelop my own figure drawing skills in my sketchbook. I hope this helps anyone looking to improve their anatomy or get started with learning how to draw. CZcams videos and online resources can be a great replacement or supplement for Art school, and I highly recommend checking out the resources down below!

Dam... I followed their CZcams... gonna unfollow them⚠️
Why..?
Hot tip: if you like anime/manga/manwha art, try looking up art terms in Korean or Japanese. I found alot of good artists that way and alot have English subtitles.
Your art is very good, I’m in highschool but youtubers like you seriously give me confidence in my art!
YAYYY you got this!! thank you so much!
Same!im 12:)
Its really nice to see another person learning art on the internet instead of Just art masters. It gives a levels of relatabillity that can't be gotten easily
Alphonso dunn is a great artist! He's a science teacher and his channel focuses on linear drawings, adding texture, dimension, perspective, anatomy, shades and more with just one pen.
omg I love that channel!
I remember when a bunch of kiddos in a discord told me they didn't learn anything about basic anatomy in their art classes and i went "bet" and did some art streams to help them because some of them didn't understand certain tutorials. I miss it 😢
Lol nice 😂
shout I need help 2
love life drawing was the first yt channel i went to for figure drawing, it helped me get into the flow, and understand how everything worked, its very beginner friendly
Winged canvas is my favorite channel for anatomy and basically everything art-learning related. Not only do they have free videos online, but if you want even further instruction, they are an art school as well. The artist Jessie from winged canvas is my favorite, but they also have other instructors with different styles, strengths and backgrounds. You can watch their full streams for instruction and laughs, or just the stream highlights which tend to not be much longer then 12 minutes. They are very informative and helpful. And funny, too.
Seriously recommend them to you and anyone else reading this.
That channel is one of my absolute favourites!! It's nice to be able to learn a subject along with other people who are also in the same boat.
@@yaz9938 glad to hear I'm not the only winged canvas fan here! I really love the videos teaching how to connect animal anatomy onto a human body. Very helpful for D&D drawings lol
I have no confidence in my art but u keep inspiring gurl! Keep going!
thank you!! and you keep going as well! the more you create, the more confident you will get!
I love the content you put out. It feels like just genuine excitement for what you do and not just endless grind mode. I love it. Thank you for the space youve created!
thank you!! I just love drawing and creating and want to share that passion with others in as friendly as a way as possible!! so happy that things are approachable, and thank you for watching!
I've started posting my art online again after taking a two-year break, and have been wanting to start enhancing my anatomy skills and watch more videos. This was such a good and useful breakdown! You have such an easy voice to listen to and really make me excited to start learning again. I added so many of these videos to my to watch list and I worked on a piece of art while watching this which was great!
So happy this could be helpful in your journey!!💖
During the part around 12:31 I just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POINTING THIS OUT! I’m currently learning how to do anatomy and when I heard the tip of trying to understand the form in a 3d kind of way, it actually improved my anatomy a bunch ☺️ I’m still practicing but TYSM ❤
Personally that tip never worked for me-just not how my brain works-but I love seeing when people say this because everything somebody says this I feel happy for them :) good luck on your art journey and keep up the good work❤
i revisit a lot of your videos frequently but ive been revisiting this video an extra lot lately, and i really wanted to thank you for it. this gave me the push to really start studying my art and trying to get better. i admire your work a ton and it inspires me so much and it made me want to get better. your videos always motivate me to try new things with my art and i even picked up painting again. i almost always have your videos in the background while i study, and it makes it more fun. your videos have even gotten me back into sketchbooking regularly, and being kinder to myself when they dont turn out perfect. my entire perspective has been changed in the best possible way and i just cannot thank you enough for sharing your art with us.
im so happy my videos could help you !! thank you so much for watching!!
I decided to go back to drawing 'cause my heart was begging for it but I got lost with the process, you have no idea how needed this was 'cause I was looking for a video like this❤ so thank you sm! Btw, perspective being highly important is so true, It's insane how much it helps
exactly!! everything you draw is in a certain perspective, some just may be more complicated than others!
i’ve fallen into the opposite trap where i jump into finished pieces (following so closely to references like it’s the law, sometimes just tracing things like hands) without warm ups or figure practicing regularly. i find that it takes forever that way but i’m such a perfectionist - thank you for these resources on getting back to the basics and finding the fun in it :)
You know shay, your the main channel I use to improve my art! Your anatomy and style is so beautiful and Ive used it to help me gain motivation! You and your work is a large inspiration for me and im sure im not the only one that feels this way
thank you so so much!! I am so happy my content is helpful to you, thank yo for watching my videos and for the support!
men just by hearing I can tell we live in the same timeline u mention those channel make it feel so nostalgia. Cant say how grateful i am for those ppl
Kaycem is super relatable: I got injured halfway through an art course in 2019 (a tendinitis) so I had to rethink art but I’ve spent some time learning Blender & want to get back into 2D
Thanks for sharing such wonderful resources
You’re welcome!
I FOLLOWED YOU ON INSTAGRAM but I didn't know you had youtube channel until now 😭 I LOVE YOUR ART SM 💞💞💞💞
What a thoughtful and jam packed video! Thank you for all of your resources, they are so helpful. I’ve not tried drawing figures for years, as tend to stick to plants and nature, but I feel after watching this I wanna get back into learning again ^_^ and yesss to nostalgic youtube content… ❤
Hell yeah you got this!
YAYYY you can do this!! just start simple and slowly build, and before you know it you'll gain confidence and realize you have what it takes! glad you found this video useful!!
If you ever do a step by step anatomy tutorial I would love that!! Your art is amazing. I’m taking art classes in college but I feel like I’m not improving but you inspire me to draw more!! Thank you!! ❤️❤️
Noted!! Thank you so much!
this video was so helpful, thank you so much! lately i was feeling stuck with my art, hopefully your tips will me in my art journey!
even though I am in art school, its been all fundamentals for a while and its been so long since ive even drawn a figure that, trying to right now is so discouraging. i dont feel i even can anymore. was assigned to fill a couple sketch book pages with figure sketches and ended up not even turning it in because i was so frustrated with my lack of ability to do it anymore. even a couple months ago i was doing fine, but now it feels so foreign and impossible>
HOWEVER, this video has been a great reminder that everyone needs to take a step backwards sometimes and that its okay to need to re-learn
Would really recommend Istebrak, she has a weekly stream called critique hour, where her viewers has sent in pieces they want to get critiqued and she talks with the audience when she critiques each piece, very practical information^^
oooo thank you for the recommendation!
aw your twilight sparkle sticker is so cute
Excellent video! This was so good for me (a good refresher) as I'm trying to get back into drawing as my anatomy skills had became rusty from not practicing.
Commenting for the algorithm 🤌
Thank you soso much! I've been drawing for years but I came to realise I literally know nothing about art and I'm trying my best to learn again and I don't care if I'm beginner again its all part of my journey!!!
Your art is so impressive!
Thank you for introducing us to such a great artists this was so helpful
I’m so happy that I could help!💖
Thank you for this video, I just got burnt out pretty bad from trying to learn anatomy on my own through yt. There are so many little tips in this video that Im sure are really gonna help me keep my sanity in the future :)
Honestly appriciate the artist mentioned. Thank you! God bless!🔥✝️
Wow, so many resources to go through! Thanks for compiling this list.
you're welcome!
kaycem videos videos are so good and useful! I found it by accident and learned a lot from it!
her art is so beautiful!
I’m literally in awe of your sketches ❤
Fantastic videos and tutorials, Shay. I love this channel. Thank you for sharing your experience and insights! ...and favourite online learning resources. Instant sub. Also, your drawings are super amazing.
such a great video! I learned a bunch, including how I've been pronouncing brunet wrong for so so long
Your art videos have inspired me to pursue art again and take an interest in traditional media too. I want to try using acrylic gouache since my art teacher in high school once said I might like gouache, but I never had the chance to try it and seeing you use it made me excited to try using it too. I want to try it soon and get back into sketching in a sketchbook and go after art as passionately as I used to. Love your videos!
It’s kinda crazy, I was just looking for a video like this!
Btw your sketches look amazing lol
yayyy glad i could fill that need for you!!
when you listed out the old but gold art youtubers in the day, a wave of nostalgia washed over me (why did that make me sound so old lmao). I remember those times when I, just like you, was very eager and loving every single thing I was learning and discovering. I sometimes go back to those videos when I seek motivation and it does the trick alll the time.
I'm now what you would call an "intermediate" artist, not quite there but not clueless on fundamentals anymore. And I've been really stuck for the past year if I'm being honest. I feel like I've studied so hard that I don't even remember what I was studying for. I've covered the fundamentals and discovered my artstyle, now what? And the problem isnt even the lack of choices and things I like to draw, it's actually the overflow of so many thing I want to do that everything I make isn't satisfying unless it covers it all, and ain't that just impossible? I want to draw characters, make a story, do amazing backgrounds, but I also want to animate, make portraits, do concept arts. I like all kinds of artstyles: painterly, animated and simple, a mix of both, detailed. What about genre: Dark, gritty, and angsty? Light, wholesome and bittersweet? Action-packed and adventurous? Love them all. And sure nothing's stopping me from making all of those things, but I do want it to at least be less scattered y'know? Narrow it down a bit. Like, Pick a struggle lmao.
Honestly now that I think about it, my biggest problem is probably perfectionism lol.
BRUH I totally get your struggle!! I feel like there’s so much I want to do too, and still feeling like my art is not quite at that professional and polished level yet. AND YEAH perfectionism is our worst enemy!! For me it makes me fixated on the smallest thing and waste so much time trying to fix and area that it ultimately just makes the drawing worse.
The best thing we can do is focus on the moment, and what we are doing right now, and just create because we love it and enjoy, rather than trying to perfect it or wrangle it in. Through our exploration of different media and forms, we may find the format that best works for us, but I feel like when you’re still in an intermediate or learning phase it can be really harmful to limit yourself. It can be great to build a cohesive body of work and really great professionally to be able to show your work and be able to connect it, but that doesn’t mean you cant continue to explore different things in the side and in your personal practice!!
Sorry if this was rambly, is something I really struggle with as well as an emerging artist that likes a little bit of everything!! Might make a video topic about this, do you mind if I quote you?
Thanks for sharing! Very useful!
Lovely video, thanks for taking the time out of your art journey to help other fellow artists who are struggling with where they should be starting to improve their work and fundamentals 😊 Im always having to remind myself to go back to my roots when i beginfeeling frustrated with myself and burnt out ❤ Goodluck with your learning!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much for watching!
Hi! I love your vidéos and your art style so much! I discover your Chanel Last week-end and i'm only watching your vidéos since. 😁
Thank you so much for thèse références. You give me a new motivation to comeback to my sketchbook!
(So for my little english.. I'm french)
Kisses
Thank youuu so much😭. I just discovered you with this video and it has been so helpful. Mostly because the amount of content there is out there can be so overwhelming, but this is such a great guide that makes my journey easier. I often feel like I have started this art journey too late, and I won’t have enough time to be an artist someday, but videos like this where you can see the process of someone is truly inspiring and gets me to be more confident on the process.
I’m so happy you feel encouraged and inspired!! You got this!
whenever I watch your videos, it makes me want to draw! I love the way you explain things and your videos really help me understand the more technical aspects of drawing
yayyy im so happy they are helpful to you!! thank you for watching!
❤Thank you Shay for taking the time to make this content for us. This was super helpful information. Being a OG art graduate as well I have taken the time to go towards photography and being a nail artist instead and now coming back to art after 15yrs this is a great start to get back 😅. Thank you 🙏🏻💕
Seems like you have a lot of great experience to pull from to get back into art! Happy to hear that I could be a part of your journey 💖
I thought I was already subscribed to most big art accounts yet you've introduced me to new ones 😮
yayyy!! glad I could share some new accounts with you!
Great video a actual video that i will use the tips to help me with my art :)
your channel is sooooo helpful and i keep trying to watch others but you are just goated and they dont compare!!! seriously seriously ridiculously grateful for u
I’m so happy you find it helpful!! Thank you for watching my videos 💖
tysm for doing this video, it motivate me to continue learning anatomy and some other things for imporve mi art, a few days ago i proposed to myself to start learning drawing on a serious way because i felt like i wasnt improving, and this video really inspired me to continue learning tysm!! ♡
yay!! you got this!
thank you so much! i love watching you draw and it’s always motivating watching your videos 🫶
you're welcome!! I am glad you enjoy them!!
Omggg this is amazing thank you ao much for your rec!!
YAY you're welcome! so happy to help~
Wow! Thank you so much!
tysm for sharing all the artists and sites, its so useful! ❤
I’m happy to help!!
Hi! I just wanted to say that you inspire me so much and I love watching your content while drawing
im so happy that my content inspires you! thank you so much for watching!
Excellent Video Shay! You've got a new subscriber for sure! ❤
I'd also like to add illustrator Tim Mcburnie to a list to anyone who's learning anatomy or just art in general.
Tim has this extraordinary ability to explain detailed processes in such a constructive yet VERY simple manner!
Especially if you're learning the Loomis framework, Tim does a fantastic job in fixing gaps you may have when reading Loomis's books.
OMG thank you for sharing this! I will have to check them out!! And thank for subscribing !🥺💖
first of all, i really looove your videos, they energize me
thank you for watching my videos, and I am happy that they inspire you! also, your art or skills are not determined by your age. so many people start earlier in life, or later in life, so try not to beat yourself up! it's never too late to start, especially if you have the passion and the drive to get better! just start drawing and making it a part of your routine again, nothing too time heavy in the beginning. Give yourself a chance to explore what schedule will work best for you and build a habit of just doing a little bit per day. I would tackle one drawing fundamental per month and just take it simple and slow. Don't overwhelm yourself with learning everything in a week. Slow and sustainable habits make for a lifestyle of learning and creating that serves you best. I mentioned a ton of drawing resources in this video so I hope they help you out! best of luck, don't stop drawing!
@@sketchesofshaythank you so much for your words, they helped a lot!
so glad to have come across this video whilst ive been seeking ways to improve, all the recommendations have been super helpful and your tips as well!! ^ ^
YAYY so happy that I could help!
Ty for the tips😊
Thankyou these resources, it means a lot for beginner artists! ❤❤
you're so welcome!! glad I could be helpful in your journey!
This video will be sooo helpful❤
this video was super helpful! i wrote down all of your tips and channels, thank you
awesome! happy studying!!💖💕
Thank you. I appreciate all the informative resources that you gave and how you you explain are in a simple form. God bless you keep drawing and have a good 😊👍.
thank you so much! I am happy you found the video informative
Kaycem is so underrated
so true!! he literally adds so much value to the online art community!
Aahhh thank you!
I had really been wanting to improve my anatomy, so all of the channels you recommended are so helpful!
yayyy so happy I could help!
@@sketchesofshay ! :D !
Thanks! I'm just learning this, I'm a begginer, very useful ❤
im so happy this is useful to you, happy drawing!
Thank you for all teh resources. Love your videos and drawings=3
you're welcome!! and thank you so much for watching!
Thank u so much! This helped a lot and definitely gave me some confidence in my own art :]
YAY so happy it helped!
I'm in awe with your pen! What brand/type is it? id love to utilize something similar! ^^
quickposes does let you filter out nude and partially nude figures in the timed practice and random poses! So if anyone was interested in using it but doesn’t want nude/partially nude the option is there
thank you for sharing that!! that's so useful to know, I appreciate it!
this video is pure gold :D, It was rlly helpfull thank you so much for putting this out for other artist, I would like to also share a channel that I have been watching lately in case anybody is interested, his channel is called chommang drawing, I think he is korean and beside the lenguage barrier, I think the way he explains every concept in such a chill way makes It rlly easy to pick up, even tho I have seen other channels talking about similar aproaches, idk he just makes It rlly easy to go through, at least for me, I started watching kaycem bc of this video, rlly nice discover and again thank you, I think this video is something I will comeback from time to time just to get my things in order, thanks
I’ll have to check that channel out! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Dude, your art is amazing! It must have taken lots of time, practise and effort to get to this point. I’m personally not that good, but I just started seriously getting into drawing just a little while ago. Anatomy and hair have been the most difficult for me. Anatomy mainly due to its ‘complicated details’. Also, you’re soo underrated, you deserve more subs!
thank you so much!! it did take a long time, but anyone can do it if they just stay consistent ! you got this :)
@@sketchesofshay Thank you :).
Honestly I learned almost everything I know from CZcams, practice, and Pinterest.
Exactly !!💖
i love your energy
Thank you for this 🙏🙏😁 ive been using Michael Hampton and Mike Mattessi videos mostly. 🙌🙌🙌
This video helps a lot
you're welcome!! and OOO I'll have to check those folks out!
thank you for this video
THANK U SO MUCHCHH!!
happy to help!
Thaaaank you for this video ❤❤
you're welcome!! I am happy you found it useful!
i was waiting for this!! i love your art style and your method of doing art, and i wanna get better at art myself... this is a great help :))
so happy you found this useful, best of luck with your studies!
Your Art is Awesome!!
Thank you!
this vid was so helpful! I am absolutely terrible at anatomy and I've been trying to practice but it seems no matter how much I practice I'm still bad 😭
It takes time!! I would really recommend starting off simple (like the Tom Fox mannequin) and taking it slow! 💖
You got this!
Hello! I love your sketches they are so good! I noticed many artist do start drawing the figure by drawing the torso first instead of the head, why is that? I'm currently taking a figure class with Will Weston, and his method is similar to yours, keep it up!🌺
Starting with the torso makes it easier to capture the gesture of the pose more accurately!! Your torso twists and turns and is more expressive. When we start with the head, it often leads to stiffer figures, and is a lot harder to change! And when you start with the head often times you get caught up in the details and get too attached, therefore it’s harder to change it in the long run 👍
Omg thank you so much for replying and for the info, now I understand why and it makes a lot of sense, I really appreciate it!! I really love your style, if possible could you create a tutorial video in the future about drawing the figure\gesture. Your sketches are so GOOD!, and I'm sorry for my annoyance 🥲@@sketchesofshay
Istebrak is a really good critique account, but she’s really harsh (not unfair), so I would only recommend her to those with thick skin 💕
I love all of your artworks so much omg!! You're truly an inspiration for me :o May I ask what sketchbook do you use? Or the mg of the page? Really like the feeling of it!
I use Talens Art Creation Sketchbook and Pentalic Travelers Sketchbook in this video 👍
Thank you so much!!
Ty for this
Thanks!
thank you so much for the super thanks! I really appreciate it michael!
WOOOOOSHAY ART
Thank you for this great content! What pen are you using for your sketching in the first half of the video?
The tombow fudenosuke brush pen!
whats your tip on proportions? Knowing perspective and knowing the forms will be helpful or are the practises for learning proportions too?
I would suggest you check out the resources and channels I have linked! they probably have a lot better information to share than myself
tysm for this video!! i've been surviving solely on force live streams (which arereally good too you should check them out) so your list is really helpful ❤
Ooo I’ll check ‘em out!
love your vibe =v= thx for the very helpfull video~
You’re so welcome! Thank you for watching!
i learned that by just watching people draw, or looking at things my brain just kinda absorbs the shaped and understands how they work, so even just surrounding yourself with art works i guess hahaha
This is so true!! Learning by demonstrations can be so valuable 💖
I hope to sell cards and stickers :) you're other video really helped me...
Thanks, I love the Vid so far! What pen are u using?
I think in this video I use a regular BiC ballpoint pen and tombow fudenosuke brush pens 🫡💖
@@sketchesofshay thank you very much ! :)
Very cool ❤❤❤
I haven’t finished the video yet so I’m not sure if you’ve covered this but I wanted to ask-How do you keep your lines intentional? To elaborate, I find that one of the biggest differences between beginner and more advanced sketching is being intentional about lines and being confident. I’ve heard that just practicing is helpful but I wanted to know if you had any other tips that can help hone in on that during practice :]
In my own works I find that I struggle to know exactly where I want the artwork to go and that leads to a bunch of hesitant lines and then a lot of erasing. I want to have a better understanding of anatomy so that I can a wide variety of body types because I find humans so beautiful but I don’t think I can properly do them justices with my current art skill set. If you can, tips on how you became more confident in art would super help!
this would make for a great future video topic!! I struggle a lot with confidence in my work and technique as well so I would love to share my experience!
If you do make a video about it in the future, I look forward to seeing it! I think it’s a common struggle for artists of any skill level and it would be really helpful!@@sketchesofshay
0:42 may I ask what pen you use here?
I think it’s Windsor and newton but I’m not sure

If someone wants to draw figures like you, and knows absolutely 0 about drawing in any way, what would you say is the best place to start? is it practicing form with 3d shapes or gesture drawings? or actual in depth human anatomy?
Tomfoxdraws made a book, personally I learned a lot from him in his book. Wedging specifically
I’ll have to check it out!! I really like the way that he draws and explains forms 💖
@@sketchesofshay Yes! It’s so helpful. He’s the main reason I can draw from imagination now lol
Another channel that I find hard to pass over anymore is 'Tim Mcburnie - The Drawing Codex'.
Thank you for the recc! I’ll have to check it out 💖
What pen are you using for your sketches? x
just a standard ball point pen!
I need a comfortable place to draw ✍️
