A Step By Step Guide In Creating Narrative Drawings

By Ida Dorsey


If you want to draw something and you cannot copy it quite well, then it does not mean that you have no talent for it. All you need is practice and you should be fine. If you have the perseverance to accept your mistake and learn from it, then learning how to draw should be easy.

Drawings has been around for centuries already. Our ancestors used different tools to achieve it. Some of them even use bizarre equipments just to share their ideas to everyone. If you want to know how to create narrative drawings, then that is fine, because we will guide you through on how to do it. If there are some steps that you find difficult, just practice it and you will learn.

Primarily, you need to start with a concept, which is what mostly drawing starts. Imagine anything that you can imagine and illustrate that, if you can. By doing that, you will have a clear idea in mind on what you should create. This is difficult in some ways, but if you just open up your mind to some other possibilities, that should be okay.

You should also make a storyline write after the concept. In this case, it should be in detail. You can even write it down in a piece of paper to ensure that you will not forget it. The storyline can be anything depending on what topic or story you want to make. Again, it is up to your imagination on what you wish to make.

If you are uncertain of your drawing skills and you find realistic drawings a bit difficult, then try out the cartoony one instead. The good thing about cartoons is that they are easy to illustrate and only contain shapes such as oval, triangle and square. If you are a beginner, then you should consider going to this style first.

Right after the sketching, you can then select an outliner that you want to utilize. Most artists prefer a colored pen or a marker. If your design composed of colors, then the colored one is the best way to go. However, if you like black and weight portraits, then go for the marker instead. Be careful in using this, because it might smudge.

To further improve your ideas on what you should make, then the web is your best buddy. Just search the internet for these type of drawings and that should be fine. Try to recreate their story and see if you can do it. If you can, then try to create your own.

Once you are done with everything, then you should treat yourself for it. You can eat your favorite food or play our favorite video game. It can be anything, as long as you will feel satisfied for what you have done. To let the world know what you have created, do not forget to share it to your social networks.

Keep in mind that giving is not always an option. If you failed in the first try, then try it again until you get what you want. It might take some time, but for sure the results will be worthwhile.
