About Me



Artists 


Connecting us with ideas to create

Artists are born and cannot be created but 


they can motivate


others to get ideas for creation or at 


minimum to admire the things they see.

Artist cannot be defined in a single word but 


it captivates a whole world of

vision and thoughts purely reflecting an artistic mind. 

Particularly talking about painting, a mode of creative

expression is dealing in the application of paint, pigment and colors on canvas

or any suitable surface as a base. Earlier painting was only limited to certain

media and surfaces like clay, paper, wood, glass, canvas or walls. The history

of art forms in the late centuries usually covers a huge portion as spiritual

art work whether either eastern or western art. Today art has taken a new form

including a lot of variation in color and tones along with many of the

non-traditional elements too.



It is not necessary which form we use or which element is

highlighted, the main purpose is to show the free flow of energy exposed by an

artist. It is also the freedom of perception exhibited by the attitude and

expressions of a person, which directly relates to esthetical value.

The Sketching

Converting your ideas, thoughts and visions whether these visions or images are real or imaginative call sketching. I believe a good artist don’t care for materials and medias…it’s like a journey, when your destiny is your only Focus.
Focusing or concentration to improve your skills and having complete grip on executing your idea while playing with any media will make you Guru! Word Guru
Is taking as a term of excellence and level of Mastery in the field of Art and Design! But the journey is veryy tough and time consuming job…
Don’t get so stressed learning Sketching is Fun!
Art is Fun to Learn!
Mostly beginners like to paint first because playing with colors rather seems cool and fascinating…but sometimes we have to follow some rules, and rules are always for betterment!
Follow the Yellow Brick Road Because…
Because following the yellow brick road of Art will bring success and achievement in your professional life. Consider different bricks as different ways and techniques which we will provide you time by time. This road will guide you to the Magical Kingdom of mastery and expertness. First get knowledge of something very important!
Sketching and its Kinds:
(1) Casual drawing,
(2) Preliminary drawing, and
 (3) Finished drawing; bearing in mind that a completed drawing may involve all three processes.
Casual drawing depicts (doodling, squiggling scrawling) signifies unfinished and generally unfinished compositions. That sketch has no enduring purpose. Preliminary drawing represents the creation of a detailed image or sequence of images, with outward appearance of a composition which the artist is determined to complete by adding some Medias. Finished drawing stand for a complete detailed drawing for example; Rembrandt's Lion resting (ink on paper, Musee de Louvre) is good example. Further finished drawings include illustrations, cartoons/ comics/ basic animation, or graphic designs.
Medias
·         The Medias in sketching are;
·         Pencil/ Graphite in any form
·         Colored Pencils
·         Charcoal
·         Chalks
·         Pen and Ink
·         Oil Pastels

Sketchbook!
Maintaining a sketchbook is the greatest way to be of assistance and your skills and abilities grow as a good artist. When as an artist, I first joined the track seriously working on modifying and transforming my skills, I began using a sketchbook as very first drawing tool. Mostly artists guided you for using a sketchbook regularly not only lends a hand to grow as a good artist, but it also equipped you with continual contributing ideas for your further proper art projects.
Before buying a new sketchbook, make sure it will be good enough to support and equally good on several medias. Also when you are sketching with a regular #2 pencil, watercolors, and chalks or charcoal the quality of paper helps you to bring good results.  If you are applying watercolors, you will need thicker, sturdier paper. Pencil is the simplest and most handy choice. If you want to apply color, watercolor or colored pencils might work for you. Charcoal has fastidious results, but it is kind a messiest medium, after having control you will produce tremendous art works from it and it is very smudge able. Do experiment with diverse mediums and practice a lot.
The Pencil!

I have a propensity to use 3 main grades of graphite;
 F (fine and hard) to jab the basis of the image,
2B (black, soft), to start shading whether in detail or not
6B (dark black, very soft) to append depth and contrast.

The softer the pencil the easier it is to smudge smears and bring result of my own! And they are blacker helps me to bring depth. You can buy tins or sets of drawing pencils reasonably cheap from any art shop for 8 pencils from Derwent, grades  H2 (hard), F, HB, B, B2, B4, B6 and B9. But there is nothing like my good old HB.
Manufacturing of Lead Pencils These days
Pencil lead is a form of carbon, known as graphite. This word derived from the 
Greek word 'graphein' meaning, to write. Through pencil production, natural graphite is 
concentrated to a powder, combined with clay, and then shaped into a paste. 
This graphite paste is then dense with highly pressure and squeezed into with full force into long 
thin rods, which are after that baked. The completed lead is then permeated with wax to make
 possible of creating some flawlessly smooth drawing and later it encased in cedar wood shaft
Kinds of Lead Pencil
Pencils are obtainable in customary form, packed in a wooden shaft, or as graphite sticks or 
powder. These sticks are prepared from high-level condensed graphite, formed into thick full 
of chunks sticks. The draftsman can differed to the marks through by using the point, the 
trodden 
edge of the point or the distance end to end of the stick. The graphite stick is the ideal medium
 of 
many artists, for its changeable density and diversity of tone.
About the History
In Greek art, artists and painters used a metal stylus (repeatedly prepared of lead) to sketch on 
papyrus. Throughout the Renaissance period, the stylus was applied in combination with a 
diversity of dissimilar metallic alloys (metallurgy a substance that is a mixture of two or more 
metals, or of a metal with a nonmetallic material) to generate other arid media similar to metal 
point and silver-point. Trainee artists in fact used an unfilled stylus to put into practice drawing 
by 
creating effortlessly removable serrations on tablets. These excellent stylus-type tools may be 
measured the forerunners of graphite pencil of these days.
The first wooden holder was prepared by the Swiss-German scientist and environmentalist 
Conrad Gesner in 1565, but the up-to-the-minute lead-pencil only come into view much later after 
an strangely pure lode of graphite was exposed at Borrow dale in the English Lake District. 
Notwithstanding accomplishment by both German and American pencil makers, basically is the
 Frenchman Nicolas-Jacques Conde who is attributed with originating the modern pencil in the 
18th century, when a process was found of merging graphite with clay. Existing leaders in pencil 
fabricating and manufacturing comprise the Dixon Ticonderoga pencil and art supplies company, 
 Faber-Castell, Sanford and Derwent.
The Subject or Object to start from…

Placing single object in front of you with simple design will be very helpful initially. You can place one or more than one but adding objects will take too much time so I suggest one object!
Draw a line first and then study the object in front of you and then draw only half of the object, when you will satisfy from the linear then places some dots on the opposite side of line where important curves should be drawn. After that draw a firm line joining all points together, hmm well-done!
The Best Quality of Line and Shading!
Line drawings represent it selves in a number of techniques and methods as well as outlines of objects, the rhythmic movement or solidity of objects. It is a very common practice for artists to use a range of line drawings for giving verity of touches, sometimes giving them fresh and brilliant ideas to start working on some lengthy period of study, which may possibly end up a final piece of art.  A linear drawing characteristically does not incarcerate all of the details of the object being drawn. Charcoal, pencil, chalks, ball point pen, Chinese ink and black markers can all be your essential tool to practice line drawing various techniques.
Contour Line
1.       A single line creating an outline of a form or an object can demonstrate the height, width and yet details of what is studied. The word "contour" in art represents to an outline of the topic being studied. Conventionally, it acquaint with only the outside edges of the object. A simple contour is single line that is linked with no shading, highlighting the casing of the object. Contour lines can put forward the weight by giving pressure harder or using the broader edge of a sketching instrument to create a bold and dark line. To recommend that something is light or insubstantial, the line can turn out to be thinner and even lighter in color, using a sharp tip or forcing softly on the facade of the paper. A bold line can rapidly change vibrant of mutually audacious and subtle within one motion with a drawing tool.
Sightless Contour Line
2.       Line drawings created devoid of giving the impression of being at the paper help to raise hand-eye harmonization at a same time. A sightless contour is most excellent studied as a rapid drawing while observing at moreover figurative or a still life theme. The line at first will gives the impression very chaotic and cluttered; on the other hand the more its practiced, hand-eye cooperation will increase and permit for matching in the real object and the sketched object to narrate more intimately.
While experiencing some projects I explored the results are amazing and striking. It is very enjoyable and I saw many artists adopted this style because of it diversity and impressiveness.
Continuous Line Drawing
3.      Whilst studying an object, the sketching executes leftovers on the page with nonstop contact creating shapes. Sometimes, lines will have to cross over frequently in order to end drawing the subject being observed closely. For instance this can be notice in drawings by Pablo Picasso and Da Vinci. They were competent to create stunning line qualities by no means lifting their drawing tool off the page. Hands are predominantly motivating when drawn in this style, as every finger joint and fingernail is exhaustively detailed by lines that interconnect and extend beyond moving on to the subsequently detail.
Gesture Drawings
4.      Gesture drawings are normally used when you need some warm-ups in figure drawing classes. They are impulsive depictions of a communicative posture of a subject. Gesture drawings are more often than not limited within the limits of 30 seconds to two minutes drawings. This category of exercise helps to relax up the wrist and make straight the hand with the eye. It is probable to detain movement and weight in gesture studies. A number of artists have a preference of using the tip of their drawing tool to demonstrate the rapid outlines of a figure, at the same time as other artists use the broad edge of their utensils to shade in the mass of the subject being observed.
Mass Gesture Lines
5.      Mass gesture lines pass on particularly to using a drawing tool on its broadest side. Charcoal is an immense tool for achieving best results about this line. Taking a look at the subject, the drawing instrument is used to one side to deliver a rapid and broad mark. This sort of stain explicitly shows the concentration of the subject. In categorizing to give you an idea about weight, the tool can be used with further force for a darker mark. To demonstrate lighter mass, fewer pressure can be apply on base. In contrasting gesture drawings, there are no outlines in throng gesticulate application.
Reductive
6.      Beginning with a sheet of paper enclosed in charcoal or graphite, the subject being observed keenly and drawn into the enclosed base using an eraser. A gum eraser is preferably and desirably good as you can simply maneuver it to any breadth or point.
Parallel or Cross Hatching Lines
7.      Blot, Spot and Stain strokes can be created with reiterating again and again and these lines are used to form texture, simple designs or shading. This is repeatedly seen in renderings produced by professional artists. Through drawing lines that are seal simultaneously or interconnecting them at crosswise angles, fragile or callous shading can be accomplished. Normally these lines are not mixed nicely. As a replacement for, selecting to make less mark or create, additional apart from an added will give the result of lighter shadows without depth.
Technical drawing

Drafter at work and copying technical drawings in 1973
Technical drawing, also known as drafting, is the academic discipline of creating standardized technical drawings by architects, interior designers, drafters, design engineers, and related professionals. Standards and conventions for layout, line thickness, text size, symbols, view projections, descriptive geometry, dimensioning, and notation are used to create drawings that are ideally interpreted in only one way.
A person who does drafting is known as a drafter. In some areas this person may be referred to as a drafting technician, drafts-person, or draughts-man. This person creates technical drawings which are a form of specialized graphic communication. A technical drawing differs from a common drawing by how it is interpreted. A common drawing can hold many purposes and meanings, while a technical drawing is intended to concisely and clearly communicate all needed specifications to transform an idea into physical form.

What is Art?


A = Aesthetically Creative Activities
R = Representing by Human
T = Transforming their several Techniques and Skills to World…
An advanced talent, skill or flair with great aptitude and desired to learn by study and practice by keen and positive observation even sometimes with madness with high sensationally depth of heart...
Art let us travel on a productive way being creative and innovative while expressing ourselves with our unique styles and approaches. Art is a thing which lightened your soul by giving a platform to express yourself by not using words…it’s a universal language and need a true heart as interpreter.

The Symbolic Journey of Humanity…
The actual earliest human artifacts or objet d'art is presentation and substantiation of workmanship with an artistic approach. Although such workmanship subsisted by 40,000 years ago in the Upper Paleolithic era (it is the third and last subdivision of the Paleolithic or Old Stone Age as it is understood in Europe, Africa and Asia. Very broadly it dates to between 40,000 and 10,000 years ago, roughly coinciding with the appearance of behavioral modernity and before the advent of agriculture). The cave paintings and moveable art like figurines (a diminutive form of the word figure) and ornamental figured crafting also noticed on some utilitarian(relating to, characteristic of, or advocating the doctrine that value is measured in terms of usefulness) objects. In the Neolithic substantiations of untimely pottery that come into sight, same as sculpture and the structure of megaliths (A megalith is a large stone that has been used to construct a structure or monument, either alone or together with other stones. Megalithic describes structures made of such large stones, utilizing an interlocking system without the use of mortar or cement). The beginning of working in metal the Bronze Age get an additional raise in mediums used for art, the conception of things that did not have any understandable purpose despite Art. It also saw the growth and expansion in some parts of artisans, these are a class of inhabitants dedicate their selves to in the fabrication of Art, in addition to untimely writing systems. Civilizations with writing had come to pass from Ancient Egypt to Ancient China.
Several aboriginal people from around the world constantly producing artistic work distinctively and characteristically according to their geographical regions and cultural backgrounds. Some cultures, markedly the Maya civilization, autonomously developed writing during the era they thrived, which was then afterward lost. These cultures are normally measured prehistoric, particularly if their writing systems have not been interpret.
