The fundamentals are a tricky subject that I think can be easily over complicated. If you can focus on learning the concepts covered in this video, you're on your way to becoming a really solid artist.

If you didn’t understand it, I’d suggest you studying from his UA-cam while as well reading his book, trust me it will differ to you and you’ll see improvements. I have been struggling to draw figure forever but Hampton’s method really helped me to overcome this issue, I wish you all the best 🌸😊

    • @stevenmichaelhampton

      I build a roof with a peak on the top of the box of cards to represent the top of the hand. This is to reflect the pitch of the hand on top to the middle finger.

He's got a book called "Life Lessons" and it's this teensy, tiny little volume of 8x10 inches or something, and half the images of his big ass paintings are black and white or 2/3 of the page is blank white space -- super disappointing honestly. Someone needs to publish an oversized picture book of his paintings. The dude's mega underrated. But hey, your book's pretty good. One of my faves :)

    Thank you so much for sharing, Michael. You make it easy to follow your thought process. I keep connecting dots I collected over the years, witch is amazing. But the best part is: Getting into resonance increases my motivation to draw. To just pick up a pencil and get going. This is fueled also by realising, that your "line work" in those exercises and preparations are sloppy. Its more like exploring rather then being precise. For me this helps a lot to get over the hump of "just starting". This tolerance to your own handiwork seems very important on the way to developing habits. Habits, that help rather then hinder your progress. I love that about your videos and the way you teach.
