I have a question. When you are drawing. Do you mainly have your hand on the table or hovering? I've learned that when practicing and drawing circles I need to lift it up. But when you were drawing the petals I wasn't so sure...
I'm doing a mix of the two :D It depends how large and what type of line you want. For the larger petals I move my hand across the page - its never lifted completely off the paper but isnt stuck in one place. For the smaller petals my hand stays in one place and just my fingers and wrist move. For the vines Im definitely moving my hand across the page.
I talk a bit more about the two different ways of moving your hand in this Lesson One if you havent already seen it: czcams.com/video/ing1x95WZ_I/video.htmlsi=Yp8MeyxYK0LY4UwB
But yes when you are drawing circles you do want to lift your hand from the page so it can move, but I always have one part of my hand still touching and sliding across the page for support.
Thanks for the question and for watching!
Thank teacher. 🥰🥰😘😘😘😘
You're welcome 😊
can you use these exercises to practise an overhand grip?
Sure, give it a go. Curves are good for practicing overhand control. Keep in mind that overhand grip is more useful when:
you are drawing on a larger scale
your drawing is at an upright angle
you want to achieve line quality effects with the side of your pencil (eg thick to thin lines)
So, you don't have to use overhand but it is a good thing to practice for coordination and control.
thanks for replying
