Standard Edition: Blocking In Concepts, Part 1

In this video I have taken all of the portions of the tutorial where I am only drawing, not talking, and sped them up 5500x. This means that the entire video is about 30 minutes rather than 2 hours. In this way I hope to make the information in these tutorials more accessible.

Me too! I was hoping for a blow by blow explanation of what you're doing and why with every feature , comparison, each step of the way.. I teach too and know that demonstration is so important but without explanation it's hard to pick up on what's happening. There are a zillion of these block in demo's, you would be the darling of the internet if you would just explain what you're doing and thinking.

Thanks Gina!

Hello, I'm a new Patreon. Thank you for your succinct lesson, I'm so happy I subscribed. :)

Gina

Thank you, Lynn!!!

Stephen Bauman Artwork

I’m working on this one right now :)

So I’ve taken notes and have been trying to fill a sketchbook with these sorts of sketches as you recommended and it is a total switch and the thinking process. I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you and I’m so very grateful for the lessons you share with us.

Thanks for a superb demonstration of your drawing process. It would be helpful if you could actually talk about how you go about determining the proportions as you are drawing. I am guessing you are sighting angles and take measurements by eye. I.o.w., it would have been more informative if you could verbalize your thoughts when it comes to blocking in the proportions. Thanks.

Hi Kim, I know where you are coming from. I haven't yet made videos that extend beyond the basics of portraiture. In the future I think that an overall basics couse would be good.

Stephen Bauman Artwork

Hi Stephen, these videos are amazing and very helpful. Do you have any videos on the basics of proportion or any suggestions? I find getting started with proportion is difficult

Kim Lewis

These abbreviated videos are a really useful feature... Thanks

Owen Murphy

That's so cool to hear! I like the idea of posting questions for yourself in the studio.

Stephen Bauman Artwork

This was an excellent break down of your process. I very much look forward to working on this assignment. And that list of questions to ask yourself ais the perfect way to end it. I will definitely be writing those down and putting it up in my studio employ. Thank you Stephen!
