Don't skip the building blocks it leads to better drawings!!


Tradition drawing with pencil and paper is certainly harder than its counterpart of a Wacom tablet and the control 'z' function. In this day and age it is true that people are able to produce digital art at a much faster pace, but one should not underestimate the power of learning the traditional style of drawing and painting. In the long run it gives the artist a chance to think through the drawing and allows the brain to process what it is actually drawing, and draw it correctly. Thus in you the building blocks to a great foundation in the digital art world. 

Check out my steps for creating the character above for my new blog header. Its easy to see how drawing the image with simple pencil shapes ( build blocks ) helps to build a stronger character when it comes to inking it! 

Also watch this video that is on YouTube made by: Draw with Jazza ( he sums it up perfectly )
