Join me for a LIVE drawing basics demo! I'll be simplifying and stylizing animal portraits with simple shapes.

Please critique. I enjoyed thinking about big shapes first and enveloping it and getting to details later. Pr

I don't know when those 2 hours passed. I had a great time drawing together.

Wow! Pirate-looking monkey on the bottom middle is my favorite. It’s already a really clean drawing. I think you could have just colored that one. Don’t overthink it. Just keep having fun. These are awesome!

Not sure if this is what you are looking for. But it's my interpretation.

Hi After I watched like half of this video I searched up a few animals and applied my knowledge to simplifying their portraits. The part I watched was really helpful. THANKS!

Hii, I am back here wanted to thank you I don't know what you taught in this lecture bur I just made my first digital painting and it doesn't look like that anyhow. I am short of words how much this course is helpful to me. Though I made the outline by tracing but I just still couldn't believe that I made this. Thanksss alott. The one with Light colours is what I made and the one with dark colors is reference. Artist is kishimoto/ikemoto and manga name is naruto. The image is taken from official site.

Drawing along was so fun, spent some good hours on this one, and I loved all the tips given, specially the one on the textured paper background.

It's much harder than I thought--while I was doing it, it all made perfect sense, but now that I'm done, not so much. . . .

don't worry your not alone...

It was great to watch this to understand the concept of design! This was great. I did a draw along and invented some of my own - I did a "refined" version of chunky monkey as well to get a better grasp of that aspect. I didn't think I could design on the fly - this gave me more confidence 😁

I did a draw-along while I watched! Some of these were to replicate what Stan was doing, and others were by imagination. As for the chunky monkey, I started with Stan and then decided to make him look like the Godfather. I don't know if it landed! What do you think?
Rachel Dawn Owens
These are so good! Try adding some of that confidence you have in the draw-alongs to your imaginative drawings. Keep up the great work! 🐵🐵🐵🐵🐵

Very cute! Keep it up :)
Josh Fiddler
Stan, that's a chimpanzee. Not an an accurate monkey. Very inaccurate. But designed well? I'm torn.

Followed along while watching the demo. I tried making more completed sketches of a couple of the drawings I did and I think the shapes came out really well. Especially the banana shaped one.
Ian McNeill
Followed along and tried my hand at making my own designs. I had fun with this once I got a handle on picking out shapes from one picture. I hope I can get the hang of it and keep going!
