    Hey there, Liron here! This will be a 1/3 video series in which we’ll start the journey of drawing simplified 3D shapes.
    My goal is to work us up to being able to draw figures with relative accuracy, using basic shapes.
    Key takeaways:
    1. A cube is the most basic structure, BUT it’s deceptively complex too.
    It forces you to KNOW the orientation of each side, while drawing them all with equal sizes & distances (as it’s a CUBE, not just a box).
    I’m still learning new things every day.
    2. Another big challenge is measuring angles and objects in space, especially those moving away from us.
    Due to the rules of perspective - these appear shorter.
    3. Developing intuition is a major way for figuring this out. Sketch, then test yourself and correct mistakes.
    Rinse and repeat. That way you’ll slowly squash away your misconceptions and preconceptions, and learn to see reality in a more accurate manner.
    I hope this is useful - keep practicing! 😁

    Great job man, you are the best teacher for learners. Other people will tell you to draw the horizon lines and match up the dots and create cubes without ever telling you why the lines look as they do, why the converging exists in the first place, and why the angles changes in length and openess. They will continue to learn art without understanding these fundamentals. Great job bro, keep up the great work!

    I can’t thank you enough of much this helped me! I always have a hard time to draw figure and such, they always look off and not pleasing to my eyes 😖, so I thought that I obviously need to go back and study the basics first then move on to drawing human anatomy. I’m currently drawing boxes and watch your videos constantly. I really appreciate it so much! You’re such a wonderful teacher and your teaching is great 😊! God bless you 🌷

  • @kaylenedawnbuteaufitnessbu2282

    Did you know, and as artists, I hope you can relate to this, that the neuro tests make the elderly with no art or interest in art draw a cube with no instruction or a reference. Betty Edwards says people cannot draw cubes without instruction. I'm almost finished with my graphic memoir of how I used my health and fitness knowledge to stop my mother with mild dementia from forgetting me, and it worked. I tricked her off caffeine, then no prescription meds, forced her/tricked her/incentivized her to drink water, kept her away from high fructose corn syrup and other poison, because they made her mean and delusional, and kept her away from gluten. I'm always curious to know what artists think of this fact? My book is about how the right hand is not talking to the left hand with many aspects of our health, and people should use art to help with their caregiving.

      @@LironYan Wait a minute. what makes sense to you? That I question the neuro tests or that they use the cube as a neuro test? ???? I can't find any scientific studies on how that correlates to life, executive functioning, etc, but many essays by psychologists listing the pros and cons of it and those pros are outweighed by the cons.

    I feel like this video could've been 10 minutes long, maybe even 5. Most valuable take away was that you need to practice and that there is no method or specific way to learn the skill. Just repetition and training intuition.
    Awesome tip, thanks 🙏
