Learning to simplify scenes and objects can be valuable to improving your artwork, no matter what medium you work with. Starting your drawings and sketches off with simple shapes is crucial to the drawing process. It will also calm your mind and show you that you really can draw anything when you think about it. Using negative and positive shapes will be a big help to creating realistic sketches and drawings as you start to draw from life.

"You have to learn the rules before breaking them" so classic!!!
Fo sho
ye
Great quote..
Not sure if that's totally true
@@andrewb.o.7227 it kinda is
What a difference a good teacher and a week’s worth of practice makes. I’ve gone from stick figure hands to, “Oh! Look at me!! I’m drawing hands!!!” In. One. Week. After 60 years of telling myself, I can’t draw. Thank you, Brandon.
Wow that is awesome to hear 😊 glad you are enjoying yourself and seeing some progress!
that's a W homie, hope you're still enjoying the wonders of drawing
Big win! Hopefully you're still drawing and enjoying the craft!! Take pride in that you had doubts, and then smashed them to become accomplished at something you never believed that you could. Love and light.
great so i'm just stupid whats wrong with me why can't i draw hands no matter how hard i try i seem to keep failing.
Own
I deeply appreciate how someone who has obviously drawn for so long can still go back to their roots and deconstruct everything to its simplest form for us noobs, it all makes so much sense and I can honestly say you are one of the biggest reasons I keep going back to my sketch book
Glad to hear, how to the sketchbook is going well :)
How are you doing now :)
@@Alyxlightqxstar yes I am curious now watching like 10 years later XD
@@vEverRunFoxWT hello time traveller from 2024. I hope humanity is still alive.
@@nokz5591 They are all dying at a rapid pace and a war broke out back in 2022
I want to learn to sketch so i escape this depression and express all of my feeling through drawings
Glad to hear! But sorry to hear about the depression! I hope you can work on that and fix your situation and I hope the art will help you :)
i hope its going well
That was too deep
I cant agree more , not depression but everyone have sad or happy moments, so i want to know drawing, painting, sketching to express all my feelings through drawing yep, to draw anything what i want and what is in my head❤ and i will do it
Oh and how it is going now bc it was written 2 years ago
You sound like one of the goth kids from South Park. Did you stick with drawing by any chance?
Your basic drawing is a million times Better then my detailed one.
ThePhoenixLegion EXACTLY!
ThePhoenixLegion I saw that and was just like "that's basic to him?" Because it looked professional to me lol
What.
What.
Than*
"all of reality is just basic shapes" too deep!
Yes it’s all basic shapes drawing is just making shapes and putting them together as a puzzle
I like to believe that I am a triangle
"You have to learn the rules before you can break them" I'm unsubscribing from all of my other philosophical/political channels now
All of reality being defined as math is better
No... no
No matter how simple the drawing this guy makes, its still looks like art.
Much appreciated :)
but everythig is arttt!1!1
welcome to osu!
That's professionals for ya!
this episode's summary:
"just make it simple"
"break it down to basic shapes"
"just imagine the basic structure"
Very gud advice
Keep up with summary, really need it.
"It is true no matter what time you live in, or what you do. But I'm afraid, that "simple" means different things to different people."
..and then add value!
I actually found one of the biggest things to me is how to hold the pencil and how it affects the lines.
"You have to learn the rules before you can break them" I have to start coming to him for life lessons too
🌺 a nice comment🌼🌸🌺💚😍
I like this approach, it's more playful than I've had before. There's an art class local to me but the teacher really emphasises the realism, and I just wanna sketch roughly, I'm put off by endless shading and refining, I just wanna draw stuff well enough for people to recognise what I'm drawing. This feels a lot more open ended and less pressure to do it perfectly.
;,;??/,?>/>>?L>??;'/
Everyone one likes different techniques. One can learn from everyone. I wish that I could afford art classes.
gotta learn to sketch before trying your hand at realism anyways.
well said
There's a lot of art like that. You don't need to go for realism. Dr Seuss didn't, and he's still pretty damn famous to this day.
-as he draws triangle-
"You get the point."
Me: -chuckles in low-resolution pun humor-
I was looking for a comment like this
I almost cried when I drew the hand😭 Thank you so much
Glad to hear :)
Besides all the great info you give with your voice in these videos, one of the most important things I've learned from watching your videos is just keep drawing! You are never talking with the pencil still. You're always drawing something in these videos, and thats what its all about. Thanks a lot!
+Jared Becker For sure! thanks for the feedback :)
I totally agree with you Jared. This technique of drawing throughout the video and giving an example of every theory that he teaches is really interactive.
Omg like I drew a hand xD and it doesn't look like a sausage I'm crying xD you need to go to heaven right away!!!
Do you mean he has to die??
top kek
90sProject's channelV2 inr
She meant like if he dies (hopefully never) he should go to heaven 🙂
Ornella Alsendi ok like I guess that’s nice but rude at the same time cause you’re saying “go die” basically
The reason I want to get into drawing is because comic book art to me is one of the best art styles I've seen in a while. It feels so raw compared to modern day animation and styles. So I thank you for making this series.
God : 7 days to create humans
"Basically , it's just a cylinder"
7 days to create the world*: he created humans on the seventh day, the other days he created time, weather, geology, animals and a bunch of other things, but your comment made me actually laugh :)
i'm dying
@@lebottle9485 *activates nerd mode * _well actually_ He took 6 days to create everything, then He rested on the 7th.
@@wlll1235 oh yes, im a dumbass lmao
@@lebottle9485 I mean you believe in god, so yea... But we knew that anyway
omfg, my art teacher is always showing off his light drawing and crap and he didn't even care to explain how to hold a pencil, now i'm already 10x better at shading and sketching just by learning that omg
He Did In The First Lesson
+Mrawesome 3567 He said 'HIS TEACHER" He was saying after watching this guy, he now knows.. I think
My art teacher didn't even teach us how to sketch. First time I heard the word "sketch" was 11 months AFTER I ended my art class.
Ikr
Lol~
Brandon:I hope you had fun testing out your pencils in your kit!
Me: *looks over at one pencil* Yeah, yeah of course! >_>
On a serious note, thank you for the video!
Same i got a lead pencil, thats all i got right now.
same, i draw on my drawing tablet i bought 2 days ago for my birthday
I only have one 2B pencil xD
i only using 2 no b innit
I only have 2B and HB pencils lol

Thank you! I really needed this, went from drawing stick figures to being able to at least draw simple objects. you've definitely gotten yourself another subscriber.

Brandon, thanks for the videos. I'm a high school art teach and I've begun using them both as a supplement for my students and to refresh my own knowledge. Really appreciate the work you put into these.
A great idea to use this video for your classes👍🌺🌸🌼
I absolutely love how you explain sketching and that you emphasize the vital importance of practice, if you want to get better. Thank you so much for this video series.
i just discovered this chanel and it's really helpful in quarantine🥺❤️
this was made so long ago
Thanks for posting these. I've been looking for help on how to start drawing. You're the best! I really enjoyed these first two lessons, and I have been practicing my circles and ovals! Thanks! Also, I totally subscribed! Thanks again!
+AltHairedStudios Glad to hear. I hope to be making some more drawing videos in the near future!
+SchaeferArt is printer paper ok to sketch on
+AltHairedStudios me too!
+TheRedKnight yes it would be okay to use printer paper but for complex drawings use sketch book
Lego Ang ppp
When I was in school art was one of my subjects that I loved but was not great at drawing. I've recently started back drawing and these tutorials are really inspiring and helpful. Thank you :)
your too young to go to “school art”
file83 They meant “When I was in school, art was one of my favorite subjects,” and why do you assume they’re young?
Your comment is sweet 🍨🧁🍦🍧🍬⚘🍵
I'm absolutely blown away by how good he is at teaching these stuff.
This perfect for me.
Within the last two episodes, I my artistic ability has skyrocketed. Truthfully in thanks to you. Viewing the motions, listening to the experience and wisdom. Understanding the primary ideas. Acquiring the basic philosophies. Extremely well made videos. I look forward to the coming of my competence.
Awesome, glad to hear this :) Very rare someone understands it this deeply, or at least shows that they do haha. Hope the drawing and sketching goes well!
You are an awesome teacher! subscribed.
Lou101960 Sweetness :)
Lou101960 i could not agree more
I agree! I learned more in this video than I have looking up tips and tricks!
Totally!!
One of the BEST drawing teachers I’ve found! Thank you for your awesome quality lessons!
Thank you for doing these free videos. You're easy to understand and just a wonderful instructor because you are low keyed and don't insist on perfection the first time around. I very much need the real understanding of perspective and I choose you. Books often aren't well written or maybe they are but having an example to work with is the real key; seeing it come to form is even better
First tutorial was clearly just a prologue, this one actually taught me a lot, thanks!
Keep them coming, I've learned more from you that any other artist anywhere.
This will be a great series! Since I'm only a month and days into acrylic painting I realized I'm only painting from my minds eye. Drawing an object I'm looking at is all new to me. I wonder what percentage of artists paint from the mind vs. the eyes..? Proportions are next, great! Need those :-) Thanks Brandon.
Start drawing from life as much as possible! It's a big help in the long run :)
I love this channel. Your way of explaining is so down-to-earth, warm, relaxed, relatable, attainable. The way you present the lessons, the words you use, actually applies to so much more about life aspects. Watching and listening to your videos are almost meditative and inspiring. Thank you.
To the people watching this, this guy is a professional so even the basic stuff looks better than ours so dont get discouraged and have a good time 👍
Thanks. Superb, confidence building and skilfully taught. Your positivity is so beautifully infectious.
Thank SchaeferArt, i uninstalled all my games and started to learn your drawing lessons. I know a thing or 2 about drawings but it's best to start at the beginning :)
+Technik3Dengineer howd it go?
It goes pretty well. I started my own Deviant art page. rsilience.deviantart.com/
It's not so updated now but i'll add more later this week.
Recently ive been using a surface pro 4 to draw my work and it works really well :)
@@Technik3Dengineer good stuffs
That’s exactly what I’m doing too. Thank you ShaeferArt for sharing your talent
Bro! You are a genius!! Thank you so much for this course. I learnt so fast with it and when I got sick, lost my job and almost died, it saved me. Thank you! Also, you taught me to see light in objects differently and painting just got easier with your teachings. This course is just great.
it’s crazy how well you explain things, thank you so much for helping.
Happy to help!
Thank you so much for this series! I love how you stared video #1 with the absolute basics! This is exactly what I was looking for
Glad it was helpful!
great work and thanks for what is basically free art education.
Gunsong1 these are better lesson than ALL the numerous different lessons ive paid for over the years! THANKYOU , I’m so grateful for your generosity and sharing your skills! 😃
😆free art education😆👍🌺🌸🌼
Just discovered you. Your teaching is VERY helpful. I've been painting for a short time, but struggling because I never learned basics of drawing. You teach so well. Thank you!
thank you so much for these videos! I feel like I have tried everything and nobody has really broken it down for me like you have. I have never drawn good but over these past few days with the help of practice and your videos I am slowly but surely getting better!
I just watched your video's Lesson 1 & 2. Very, very informative!! Thank you so very much!! Now I actually have a real base line on how to start!! And now I have allot of practicing to do before I venture into watching 3,4, & 5.
I gave up on sketching , drawing and painting like over 2 years ago , I saw your videos and got very inspired , now look at me drawing again learning how to sketch by the best teacher ! Thank you so much Brandon! , I love your videos! Please post more I legit get so inspired by them and I got so much better from your videos ! Thank you again legit! I often get anxious and never know what to take my emotions out on , but now I can take them out on art
coming back to this 2 years later and now I see the difference in my art now , Thank you so much Brandon for helping me in this journey I really owe you one.
Awesome :) Glad to hear!
I'm so glad you put together this series. I haven't drawn for fun since...high school? I'm 38 now and you gave me the courage to pick up a pencil again and start doing some basic sketching. I think having some sort of art in your life, music or visual arts like this is good for the soul.
Video was really helpful. I am thankful you exist.

Awesome Guy shut up. A lot of people don’t know it or are from a different country and don’t speak it well and she or he did it right
@@GreyGhostBreyers Exactly.
Drawing the face is my worst nightmare! I have draw 25 like papers and so far the face is still a problem. I am sort of good at drawing in 2D but not in 3D. I try my best but i am not giving up because my ambition is to become animator.
if so make boruto episodes .👍👍
Not sure whether he already did faces (Just started to watch) But IMO try to simplify things (as he said in this video) at first. Instead of a detailled nose, you might just want to draw the most distinguishing marks. Don't draw your own face, it's pretty hard, instead grab some random pictures from the almighty internet, maybe even facebook, look at their most distinguishing marks, and draw those.
Marks you could pay attention to:
headshape, especially chin
Shape of the eyes,
noseline,
general direction of hair,
eyebrow line, by extention hair direction
mouthline,
upperlips,
lower lips,
ears if you can see some,
accessories and more
Face proportions might also help you. The eyes are actually in the middle of our headshape, nose ends at 1/4 of headshape, mouth at 1/8, and if the mouth is resting, then where the corner of the mouth is, is there, where you should draw the eyes.
SpareBrains561 me too, so obsessed on skerching faces :(
SpareBrains561 animate mincrahft
SpareBrains561 you can start animating now! It doesn't matter weither you're good or bad, basic cartoons can be a perfect base for a beginner in animating. You don't NEED to be amazing at art to be an animator. Just start animating where you are and both your animation and art will improve in time. Best of luck my friend :)
Thanks Brandon! Your series is really helping me learn so much. You are a great teacher though, you make complex techniques so easy to understand. Kudos to your efforts.
You are a great teacher! I'm not a beginner, but going back to basics is so helpful! Especially after not having drawn for a while. Thanks very much.
"You have to learn the rules before you break them."
This is very important. Thank you!
Absolutely 😊
Time and Time again you make art simple and enjoyable even though I'm easily overwhelmed! Your videos are like my art Bible 😂 so thank you friend! You're truly appreciated ❤️
Hahaha😆😆😆art bible😆😆😆I think you are super cute and sweet🍨🧁🍦🍧
You're giving me hope that I can learn to draw. I just wanna thank you for kindly posting these and having the patience to teach us
BRO THIS IS HELPING SO MUCH YOU ARE AWESOME! EVERY OTHER TUTORIAL JUST SHOWS YOU AND EXPECTS A RECREATION, WHILE YOU SHOW THE FUNDAMENTALS OF IT ALL STARTING FROM POINT 0. I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH!
Glad I could help
Thank you so much for this series. I’ve been trying to draw from the very childhood, but severe anxiety and OCD didn’t let me, because it was never “good enough”. Now I’m coming back and super exited to give it a go❤️
Go for it! Have fun.
Brandon, when you sketched the shapes within the hand, that's when "the light turned on" for me...LOL! You are an awesome instructor and I thank you so, so much for sharing your talent with us. Back to the sketch pad for me! Cheers
Thank you man! Ive been enjoying your lessons so far. Ive been using drawing to help me cope with some of the BS I’ve been going through. This has been a real help getting started
Loving this. Just small, light strokes rather than doing one harsh line!! Brilliant!!
I've never enjoyed sketching so much. Thank you so much for making these videos. I've gone through a million videos but the ones you make always make sketching more interesting and simpler for me. I just really enjoy doing it now. Thanks!!!
Glad you like them!
thanks for posting these they're really helpful its easier now to draw better
I thought I didn't knew how to draw...but now I see that I only needed to stop complaining and start learning! Thank you for teaching me!
No problem :)
Thank you for providing a no BS platform for people to learn or re-learn drawing, especially these videos - breaking it down to the very essentials. Awesome videos - I greatly appreciate it!
No problem :) Glad they are helpful for you
Finally I have found the real art Teacher! At last now I can learn to draw!!
WTF

The best part is how over 1 million viewers first episode, then 800k less next episode, then 200k less third episode. If you can't even manage to watch 4 youtube videos and do the work asked in each one, don't be upset if you're not doing speed paintings with ease lazyasses LOL. Excellent videos SchaeferARt
MentalTilt But that's the case with every video series on this entire platform.
THIS. I saw exactly the same. I always painted with short lines and I didn't know it was called sketching and with every video I learn a lot. I actually started liking my crappy sketches.
Just because they have less views doesn't mean they all quit. Most could have gone to another series and just didn't want to stick to this one. People probably just reccomend the first video a lot since it is a very great intro to drawing.
Most of us see this at 3 am, then go to sleep and never come back, I have come back :v
@Anaconda Complex Same here
I know this video is a few years old, but I really appreciate it. I have been following since the first tutorial, and I have improved vastly. I went from barely being able to draw a good circle to being able to draw really expert spheres. Thank you so much! :) Keep up the great work!
never thought art was going to be this easy to learn. I have for multiple art classes but many just keep going on the principles and never let me do any work!!!
my dream is to become mangaka and i was wondering where to start , i found myself a hidden talent in art because of you , i really appreciate you
the video was really helping .... i am re-watching it i am sketching trees ,houses, chairs , spheres .... just trying ... i am very beginner but it is getting good alhamdu lilah
+Shemo Elmansory How is it going now?

What about now?
Your tips on how to draw hand is really helpful. Looking forward to finish all your lessons.
I just discovered your channel and I'm glad I did. Your very talented, I love all your work. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it's greatly appreciated.
Thanks for these videos. I am sketching for the first time in life and your videos are invaluable!
Glad to hear! Have fun with it! :)
I finally drew a decent looking thumb thanks to this video! Just him saying to look at my hand, try, and draw, and I did it! Thanks a bunch!!
Seeing how to see things with shape and demension has helped my sketches the more shape and not look so flat. The squinting trick with shadows really helped!
I loved drawing when I was young. Decades later I'm drawing again, but starting from scratch. Thanks for your informative videos. They're simple to follow and give me encouragement to continue drawing as a senior.
I always thought the only things I can draw right are hands, but now I see I've been doing that wrong too lol. I usually just look at objects as a mess of lines and try following those lines, rather than shapes and maybe that's why my drawing sucks haha. Great video, really helped clear things up for me!
When you're able to draw a hand without it looking like a bunch of sausages stuck to a circle
Hey! I was just new at sketching and I found this video. And to my surprise, I was actually doing the same thing as he did, like drawing my hand. Doing basic shapes to shape something
This is exactly what I've been looking for ! Thank you so much for your time, patience, and dedication..!
I've been planning and making my future Webcomic and this really helped me. Thank you for your video!
Dude this is amazing now I know that it takes courage
Good teachers like you are rare these days. most of them just want money and they doesn't even care a thing about what they are teaching. really grateful for this! *subbed*
Yesterday I decided I wanted to be able to draw. Today I stumbled upon this series. I’m going to have fun with this
You can do it!
Thank you for this video! the hand tipp was very helpful :)
I start my sketching by watching your video!
I needed this! Sucking up every word you say like a sponge 🧽!! Thank you for making these tutorials Brandon, it’s the fundamental training I’ve needed for 50 years!
Thank you SO much!! This is the only tutorial series that actually helps!!!!
Best art videos. So helpful.
Follow the curvituer of the sphere... So deep!
Follow this guy
So simple yet so effective. I always have lots of ideas and can never quite get them on paper but this is a big help, thanks for these videos!
only watched two episodes and i already see improvement in myself, these tutorials are amazing! gonna practice a bit more then ill watch the third
You've made me believe that I can actually draw! Thank you!!
Jacqueline Peters are you winning son?
I definitely saw Doge at the end there.
John Carlo Cagas uuugghhhaaAAAAH! I see it too.
When I'm on acid lol
These videos are amazing. I’m so bad at drawing I don’t draw because I’m embarrassed of it. I have always wanted to learn and get better but had given up. These are free easily available lessons that are high quality. I have 2 papers drawn from these lessons of what you taught. I hope to continue to learn and eventually be a good drawer as a hobby. I truely thank you for making these.
8 years and this guy is still hearting comments, respect!
your drawing tutorials are also awesome, double respect for that.
Anyone else having a marathon
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
2:18 I can't even make that cube!!!!
the best drawing tutorial on the internet!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
My favourite Art teacher ever. I've finally started to understand how to break things down into simple shapes and draw them out! I am learning way more from you than I ever did from anyone else. Hope you keep making such amazing videos. ❤️ We really appreciate it. ☺️
Wow, thank you!
