How to Sketch People (Upcoming Book)

Hi there, Liron here! Today I want to talk to you about my upcoming book – How to Sketch People.

It’s still work in progress, but I should finish it within 1-2 months. I wanted to share with you some sketches from the book, so you can see what it’s all about.

Check out this video for more information, and scroll down for a few more examples.

More Examples from How to Sketch People

I plan for the book to include many examples, exercises and in depth explanations.

I wanted to create a fun read, and teach a sketching style that is loose and fun. Many of the books on drawing people very “heavy”. I took a lighter approach (;

Here are some examples

How to Sketch People book example - A sketch of a group of men from behind How to Sketch People book example - A sketch of a businesswoman How to Sketch People book example - A sketch of a couple hugging How to Sketch People book example - Sketches of feet

I hope you enjoyed seeing those.

I’ll keep you updated on how the book goes, and when it’s out.

And until then, take care!

Hi there! Liron here. In this episode I want to talk to you about the products I’ve been working on during the month of February 2018.

Courses

I’m working on 3 new course I intend on publishing on the Udemy platform. This is where I currently make my courses available (together with my website).

I’m close to finishing 2 out of the three:

  • Portrait painting in watercolor
  • Landscapes in watercolor

Because I’m working on so many things simultaneously, this has been quite the challenge. I really have to work hard to be able to devote large chuncks of works to these products.

They involve recording, and then A LOT of editing work.

Book – How to Sketch People

I’m working on a book on how to sketch people in pen and pencil. This book is meant to be a “twin” product to my video course on sketching people.

This is a topic I’m trying to tackle from a rather unique angle, in my opinion. I try to provide students with a loose and fun method, that still preserves the accuracy and realism of the sketch.

I think this is an incredibly challenging topic that deters many from tackling. With this book, just like with the course, I wanted to turn it into a fun, light-hearted experience.

Increasing My Income

As an artist that is trying to build a business around their art, I have to be proactive. I always have to take care of my own income and earnings.

I have no boss, or salary. This is a huge challenge, but also a great freedom.

My goal with producing so many products is mainly helping as many people as possible, as well as MAKING MORE MONEY (:

I think this is also a uniqe value I bring to the table when it comes to helping other artists. I’m very business-oriented, and hope to inspire other artists to proudly create and charge money for their creation.

I want to use this opportunity to thank you. Yes – you! My listener, viewer, reader and follower.

Without you, all of this would have been impossible.

Artist Corner

In this episode I talked about no other than Paul Cézanne.

He doesn’t require too much introduction (;

Cezanne was a French post-impressionist painter, who is widely-known and highly-regarded.

Both Henry Matisse and Pablo Picasso have remarked that Paul Cezanne “is the father of us all”.

You can read more about him in his Wikipedia page.

Conclusion

And this is it for today’s episode. I hope you enjoyed it!
