Is it possible to teach yourself how to sketch?

It's okay, but you have to work hard, you buy a good book first, look at the sketching skills, and then copy it, you have to practice it repeatedly, and painting depends on talent, if you have talent, you can get it in a few months, and if you have poor talent, you can get it, and if you have poor talent, I recommend finding a teacher to take you to start, don't learn to take detours.

I myself summarized the following points:

1.First of all, you should practice the lines: light at the ends, heavy in the middle, and straight.

2.Gradient: You draw the first line that gradually becomes lighter until it is not visible (the length of the gradient varies with the size of the object).

3.Light-dark junction: The light-dark junction of an object (such as a sphere) is an arc (remember: it's not a line, it's a face, when you pitch it).

4.Now it's time to practice: Composition Pay attention to the proportions of the whole picture, otherwise it will be out of proportion.

5.After you've practiced it, it's time for the background: the line fades to the black (the background tends to be darker than the plaster).

6.Wrinkles: Composed of two lines, the dark side of the line should also fade to both sides (don't draw green ribs).

That's what I learned.

If you really don't understand, you can ask an older teacher.

It works, but it's boring, it's not as good as finding a teacher, one hour a day, it's useless, it's faster to enter the country, and it's okay to learn to read books on your own, but maybe it's slower.

It must work, and if you think about how the sketch came about, it must have been created by people, and it shows that you can learn everything on your own, and believe in yourself.

Yes, but I recommend training, because it will be easier to find your own shortcomings in the group, so that you can improve.

It's totally possible, as long as you have determination, have hobbies, watch more, copy more, and the rest is your talent and aesthetic ability.

Yes, buy a few sketchbooks, practice the lines first, handle the relationship between black, white and gray well, and with hard practice, you will definitely be able to learn well.

OK! Buy a few sketchbooks and come back to copy the black, white, and gray compositions.

Insist on drawing at least one sketch every day, and also look at the good works of your predecessors.

It's not realistic, find a friend who paints, there should be a lot of people around, if you can't find me, I also paint.

Buy a book and practice it first... Look what you've learned to do... Find a teacher who will learn well.

No problem. As long as you have perseverance. Listen more, watch more, practice more.

Yes, as long as you are patient enough.
