Snakes are one of the most-drawn animals, if not the most drawn animal. They’re considered to be very simple, with no legs or special muscles that need to be defined. There’s only a head (without ears!) and a long tail—what can go wrong?
Approximately 3,400 species of snakes live across most continents, except Antarctica. The crazy snake is not one of them 🙂
Hi, everyone !!
In this video, I’ll show you some warm up exercises that you can do.
The purpose of warming up is to “awaken” your drawing muscle memory and getting back into the groove of drawing.
As you’re about to discover, none of my warm-up exercises really have any artistic value, .. or maybe some abstract value … or inspiration for an illustration.
Put your favourite music on. Draw with pencil or pen, it doesn’t matter.
They’re just really simple warm-up exercise.
The first one is to simply draw parallel lines, as straight as you can. Let’s try Different Length. Now Let’s try to draw some vertical lines over.
The next exercise is to swirl all over the page. A good warm-up exercise for rhythm. Follow the rhythm of the song.
Another good exercise is to draw big or small circles. Don’t draw them quickly, just enjoy it. It’s ok if they are not even.
Let’s make a lonely circle and attach some friends circles on it. Now we will draw lines away from the centre of the circles. Yes for some direction is a bit difficult. Pick a couple that you like and try to use some of these warm-up exercises to start off your daily drawing time and see if they will make a positive impact.
