Paint and draw what you are interested in if you want to create great art...
All great art comes from passion. And it is your passion for what you paint and draw that could make you a great artist.
So, if you want to succeed with your art look to choose a subject that interests you.
Imagine that you are a wildlife lover who loves wild cats like a lion or tiger...
- You will be far more capable of learning to draw a resting tiger
- You will easily learn to paint a baby lion cub nestling up beside mother lion
- You will understand the flash of speed leading to a leopard's kill
- You will see the arc of movement in a running cheetah
It doesn't matter what you interests are... You could like portrait painting or figure drawing, landscapes or seascapes, machines or buildings.
When you choose to draw something you are passionate about you will find it easier to do it well. Your painting capabilities will improve because...
- You will see form and structure
- You will see speed and movement
- You will feel force and emotion
Whatever you are passionate about could be the key to your art success. Reasons that will drive you include...
- Your natural insight
- Your detailed subject knowledge
- Your ability to research new facts and information
- Your willingness to work through difficulties
The great thing about learning to draw and paint subjects that interest you is that you will never tire. You will find that time flies while you are working. You will discover energy reserves you didn't know you had.
You will have the advantage of knowing when you need to do more...
- If your Puma's eyes are crooked you'll straighten them
- If the whiskers of your cougar are too short you will lengthen them
- If the ears of your lynx are too long you will correct the mistake
Nothing is too much trouble for you...
