| Have you ever wanted to create a cartoon
| |
| | but if you really like flowers and
|
| design of your own? I'm a fabric artist
| |
| | leaves, draw flowers and leaves. Just do
|
| so I frequently come up with my own
| |
| | very simple drawings with simple color
|
| designs with no particular source of
| |
| | schemes.As you practice the above
|
| inspiration.First, let's clarify the word
| |
| | techniques, it will be easier and easier
|
| cartoon. I'm not referring to drawing
| |
| | to draw designs starting on an empty
|
| cartoon characters although the word is
| |
| | page. The page is your canvas, it's
|
| the same word. My use of the word
| |
| | there to serve you, so let things happen.
|
| cartoon is more in the sense of a pattern
| |
| | If you love the color purple, use only
|
| drawn on a large piece of paper (usually
| |
| | shades of purple, then add a little black
|
| 18" x 24").There are many ways to
| |
| | here and there, with some soft greys.Once
|
| practice turning on the creative juices.
| |
| | you get comfortable with the process of
|
| It always starts with a blank piece of
| |
| | creating designs, begin to look at the
|
| paper. Now instead of deciding to draw
| |
| | overall balance of the various elements
|
| anything in particular, I just pick up a
| |
| | you have created. Could they be smaller,
|
| pencil or pen, place the pencil on the
| |
| | larger? Could they be placed in a
|
| paper somewhere and let the flow
| |
| | different area of the paper and have a
|
| begin.One technique is to draw a
| |
| | greater visual impact? Could you add a
|
| rectangle somewhere in the middle of the
| |
| | bright lime-yellow to make the other
|
| paper. Now you have certain defined
| |
| | colors pop?Another technique is to take
|
| spaces to fill with straight lines, curvy
| |
| | an abstract drawing you've created, cut
|
| lines, groups of lines, shapes,
| |
| | the paper in strips or any kind of pieces
|
| repetition of shapes or free flow.The
| |
| | you want, then re-assemble the drawing in
|
| center space can be filled with circles
| |
| | a new way. Look at the overall effect.
|
| of various sizes, a simple leaf design or
| |
| | Do you want the shapes to pop? Do you
|
| triangular shapes. Shapes can be
| |
| | want the colors to be more dominant?
|
| repeated in various ways by changing the
| |
| | Does your design have energy and flow to
|
| sizes of the shapes. The outside space
| |
| | it? What do you want to convey with your
|
| around the edge of the paper can also be
| |
| | drawing?Practice the above process as
|
| filled with similar shapes or just drawn
| |
| | often as you can. I try to draw something
|
| curvy lines or straight lines.At this
| |
| | on a daily basis and a lot of times I do
|
| point, I don't think about placement or
| |
| | this late at night before going to bed or
|
| an actual design, just let the process of
| |
| | early in the morning before my busy day
|
| drawing take place.After you have created
| |
| | begins. Find a slot of time for your
|
| some shapes and lines, begin using
| |
| | creative juices to beging blossoming. I
|
| colored pencils or crayons to fill in
| |
| | really believe that becoming creative (in
|
| these spaces. Use three colors to start
| |
| | whatever medium you choose) requires
|
| with, use three colors that you really
| |
| | practice, practice, practice. Soon you
|
| like. Then add variations of these
| |
| | will find your inner voice and direction
|
| colors, lighter and darker, softer and
| |
| | for your art to express itself.Happy
|
| brighter. You would be surprised what
| |
| | sketching! Take time for you! Good
|
| can happen in this process.These images
| |
| | Luck!
|
| that you're creating are mostly abstracts
