Right now I think I can't draw, but I want to be able to learn to sketch plants and travel places. I don't really want to learn to draw pictures that look like photos. What I want to learn is to draw simplified things that I like. Recently I started doing this - choose one random object and draw it either from life of from a picture on the Internet.
So I have some questions, would be happy if you shared some thoughts.
When I draw from life, sometimes I can't compartmentalise the object into simple shapes. Are there any tools that can help me master this skill of dividing a complex object into simple shapes?
Is it really useful to copy 2-d pictures? What I mean is that when I copy someone's picture, the work of simplifying is already done for me, so it feels like cheating.
Can I actually become better at drawing, by simply drawing one thing at a time, without reading too much theory? Or is it a road to nowhere?
Currently I try to draw different things and objects: a mug, a ring, a plant, a cat carrier etc - each day it's a different thing. Should I keep doing this or maybe it's better to choose one thing and draw it over and over again, so I can see the progress?
Any other tips/suggestions? Considering that I can easily dedicate 10-20 minutes daily to drawing, but not more.
The bbc is completely incapable of calling any rapist a rapist especially if they’ve worked for them for years.
Unfortunately, the BBC is doing this to spare the feelings of every TIM, because as soon as you say that this pervert is really a man, that means they're all men.
Oh, my!
The fact is that TIMS would rather claim this pervert as one of their own than admit that he's not a woman.
