Refer to art books, recommended art books

What kind of art book are you buying, if it's some sketch avatars, sketch still lifes, still life colors, I can help you, and, the same book as others, it's not bad at all, in the art class, many people's templates are the same, but because each person is different, so the effect is different.

Before you draw, it's best to look at the template, and the most important thing is the drawing technique in the template. Like, what is the reason for painting like this in a certain place.

To give you an example, when I draw my avatar, I will first observe the paintings in the template, and then after looking at many pictures, I will come up with an experience. I just want to say that the lines are all discharged according to the muscles and bone structure of the human face, and they are not indiscriminate.

If you can do that, then you won't feel threatened at all. After all, what you learn is your own, and the experience you get is the most impressive.

I don't know so much nonsense, do you understand? In short, there are prerequisites for maximizing the limit.

The first thing is to have a template that works for you.

Hehe. It doesn't matter what books you buy. It's all about what each person can learn. You're also from elementary school or junior high school. You're like someone else's textbook. Are the grades the same? So nothing.

The paintings on the book should not be copied according to the shade of color, lines, etc. Understand the fundamentals. Remember where they were drawn. It comes according to the standard way of painting.

Everybody's abilities can't be stolen from anyone else, and you're going to have to face thousands of competitors instead of just a few classmates around you.

1. Jiang Xun, "A History of Chinese Art for Everyone", Taiwanese scholar Jiang Xun outlines the birth, evolution and development of Chinese art in the simplest length, the most general technique and the most popular language.

2. Gombrich's "The Story of Art" summarizes the development of experimental art from the earliest cave paintings to today's experimental art, in order to illustrate that art history is "a history of continuous circuits and changes in various traditions, and each work in this history both looks back on the past and leads to the future."

Drawing or painting, on a technical level, is the practice of using a surface as a support surface and adding color on top of it, which can be paper or cloth, and the tools for adding color can be a brush, brush, sponge or strip of cloth, etc., or you can use software to paint.

I think for beginners the content of "Introduction to Art" is a bit complicated, and it is too specialized, just to improve their aesthetic taste, I think to look at books about art and design, the most basic thing is to understand the laws of formal beauty, as well as the laws of formal beauty or others, etc., because no matter what famous paintings (or products) have their own specific formal beauty, all of which meet the aesthetic requirements. It's also going to improve quickly, and it's easy to understand...

And then according to your preferences, multi-faceted, comprehensive appreciation of more books with ** commentary, I won't say the specific title, because everyone's appreciation level is different, and the books suitable for everyone are different, and you may not be ......able to read what I likeThe more you see, the more you know, and the more your aesthetic level will improve.
