Transcripts

1. Introduction & Brainstorming the Scientific Bird: Today we're going to look at something called a scientific drawing out. We're gonna be doing some birds with that for a long, long time ago when people would discover new things, they would want to make sure that people knew what it was. They would either take a picture or they would draw it if there wasn't that technology or they would draw it right and write down all the things they know about that items. The first thing we're gonna do while I'm showing you some examples is maybe on some scrap paper, I did draw this line just so I can share some scrap ideas here. So if you want some separate scrap paper, go for it. But I'm going to brainstorm here while I share some of those ideas. So while we're brainstorming, I want you to maybe leave a little rectangle so you can decide if you're working side to side or up and down today I'm going to work side-to-side. You have the choice to do either. This is my brainstorm, right? But while you're brainstorming, you might want to think about what kind of details you want on your bird. Ideally, you're going to have a two pictures or more, two or more, ideally like your bird picture somewhere. And then maybe the wing or maybe your bird flying. And then if you want, you can add where they live. If you want what they eat. And then I'm gonna say this in the easiest way. It's anything cool about them, anything you want to add that's kind of interesting about them. Okay, so let me just start with the first one. Don't worry about the details too much. We'll add some of those things together. Okay? So this one kinda looks like a gray or like a bluebird. We're going to think about this space that we're using, right? So if this is all the space I have, if I draw my bird really big, it's not going to leave a lot of space for other stuff. Ideally, you can leave two spaces for pictures. You can decide where that goes. But the thing to remember here is you're going to think about the shapes. So it's shapes to build it really roughly. I'll show you, but we'll do it together. If I was looking at this, what kind of shapes do you think you see? If you were thinking about this with no details? You would probably be like head, alright, has kind of like an oval shape. Body is kinda like an oval shape, right? Tail is kinda like a triangle, at least personally. And then you customize. It's not exactly that. But we know that these are shapes that build to find your animal. This is a great tip for a lot of things though. Proportion has to do more with how those shapes relate to each other. So if I was gonna do a bird, but the bird's head was ginormous. It doesn't really relate to the body, right? One more thing that I did write down is what colors you want to use. Maybe if think about that. Well, we're brainstorming here. This one I really enjoyed because it's a lot of just using one thing. So they probably use pen or marker, just something to make lighter and darker areas. You don't have to do this route, but if this is something you would like to try, you can always use pencil, block it in, and then use little bit of pen or even colored pencil and use one color and execute that if he's like. The main reason I wanted to show this because this is a different pose than our previous picture, right? This one is kinda sitting maybe on a branch and this one is in a flying posts. So I will be doing both. You can decide if you want to have the second one and you don't have to have both. But you want to have to sort of pictures. Maybe one sitting, maybe one with a wing is also a scientific drawing. So you know what the scientific drawing everybody because you can see that it shows the picture. But do you see all those little like scribbles? Those are probably describing it, right? When I think of scientific drawings for some reason, I think of like very old in style paper, black and white or something kinda like this where the paper is kinda brown. We're going to take it and we're going to make it interesting and fun today. Okay? So if you want to go ahead and draw when you're like, well, I liked that, that looks really cool, but then you can add different things to it. You can do that if you'd like. So that would be one of your pictures. You might want to figure out what your two pictures are. So one probably sitting or flying. And then if you wanna do the wing, you can, if you just wanna do one sitting and flying and know when you can do that as well. But on this sheet, on this scrap sheet that we created in our brainstorming area, I want you to decide where your pictures are gonna go. So what I'm thinking about for myself, we're thinking about here, we're thinking about what space we're using, right? So e.g. I want one of my birds either sitting or flying in this corner. So I'm just gonna kinda block it off something in this corner here. So one of my birds, and I do like the idea of having a wing that describes what kind of details they might have. So maybe the wing goes somewhere here. And any extra space you have, you can decide if you want to put branches, maybe what they eat, maybe they eat some sort of magical barrier and you can draw a little picture for that. If you want to do two drawings where it's like one here and then like one flying a little bit smaller, you can do that as well. I just want you to think about what you might want to write. And then if it might have a name, you can decide what that name is later. I know sometimes naming is hard because names sometimes come from what they look like. Names sometimes come from the different features that they have. So if you have a name in your head and you're like, I want this to be the banana bird. That's fine. If you want to describe it later, you're like, I'm not sure what I'm going to write yet, but at least I know where I want to write. So if this was my bird, maybe I'm writing around the bottom here. Maybe I'm writing about the top here. For my wing. I'm probably going to use this space around it to describe it. And then it leaves me with a couple of extra spaces here. Maybe it put what it eats. And then if you want to put like a fun fact, you put a fun fact or something. Remember it is the option. You do have the option to make it a hybrid, but you don't have to if you prefer to keep it more traditional phone. So I just want you to take a moment, maybe just think about what your sketch area might look like if you did want to block it in like I did like circle, oval, triangle, you can try that if you'd like, just a really rough sketch. Also, sometimes when you're looking at little scientific drawings, sometimes they include where they live. So if you want it to draw like a little branch or something, you can, if you just wanted to put some information about where they live, you can. It's up to you. Birds are great because you can kinda build the shapes. And then once you have this idea of building shapes, you can do it too. A lot of different stuff. Okay, So maybe what I want you to decide in the next minute or a couple of minutes, we're going to start our good copy soon. But maybe you decide which pose you would like to go to or which couple of poses you want to go with. I want you to at least do one of the two at the bottom here. If you want to keep it more traditional, I would do the one closest to my finger, the one that's colored because that one's a little bit easier to work with. Then of course, if you want to challenge yourself and do the second one, I'll show you how to do that. 2. Sketching the Scientific Bird: Okay, So as we're jumping in and getting started, I just want to make sure everybody you have an idea of where things are going. This, I would say is one of the most important parts because that way you can decide how your bird looks. Remember, I would highly recommend maybe following along for the base of the bird. I want you to try something new. If you've tried something like this before, then maybe you've got the leg up, you've got something to build on. But if you are trying this on your own, just give it a try with me as well, just so you can get some of those shapes and make sure you have some of your materials ready to go. I would highly recommend starting in pencil because that'll give you the opportunity to change and shift and adjust. But the biggest thing we're thinking about in the space that you have is how you're using that space, where things are going and proportion how your birds parts relate to each other. Once your interior good copy sheet here, you can kinda divide it the way you did on your sketch. If you just want to figure out how much space you have, I would say for roughly from myself, you'll see that both of the bottom two birds are very tall, right? So they're probably going to take up more of a taller space than a wider space. So I'm probably going to keep my bird about here. And I'm doing this lately so I can erase it later. But my birds probably going to fit somewhere there. This is a rough line if you go over it, that's cool. And then to fit it in, I'm going to draw my wing in the other direction. But it's going to fit somewhere here at the top. I'm going to start with the image closest to my finger. If you guys see the bird here, one of the two, as long as you've got a base of your bird, I'd highly recommend it if you're planning out your space, if you think about it, the direction that this one is particularly looking at, it's kinda like a diagonal, right? So I wouldn't see that it's kinda it's not looking in a day angle or direction, but the body shape kind of forms that way. But what I'd like you to think about, it's the top of the head can be pretty close to the top because I want to make sure I have space on the other side. So what I'm going to do, I'm just going to start with an oval or a circle head. This can change later. Remember, don't sweat it. But you will notice I'm going pretty lightly just so you can catch it on camera. I'm gonna go a little darker. I don't want you to not be able to see, but make sure you're going light enough where you can erase it now in more details later. It's like a golf ball. Once you have this circle, you'll still notice I have rough lines around it. No problem. I'm trying to decide that diagonal motion, right? That's direction I want the body to face. So this direction is kinda facing this way. But I'm going to start off by drawing my oval body attached to it. I would start with a thin oval body first. You can always make it wider later. Sometimes if you start really wide, it's kinda hard to shrink afterwards. But if you want from your head, this is gonna be an oval that actually overlaps my circle. I have a little bit more space for my tail. Vacancy its head and body. A little bit wider than this, I would say if you want to start making it a little bit bigger, you'll see me just curving some areas, making it wider. For me personally, I like to build around things versus like erasing them. They're both fine methods to go with. But you can slowly start to connect your head and body if you look at the picture, if they don't connect like a V-shape, that connects kinda really soft. So from your head you can kind of connect it with a soft line if you'd like. But they're starting to connect. Never connected with a curve. I think I'm going to erase a little bit and add an extra carbon just to make it a little bit wider. I'll show you what that looks like. So I curved it a little bit. You can erase the inside if you'd like. The font looks really funny because it is like a hard edge, like kinda looks like the side of the letter p. So you can soften that edge to later on, don't worry about it. But I've added this connecting line from here to the wings do quite get a little bit bigger. So remember I'm building on the extra shapes, right? It's a little bit thin now. I'm just going to build on the wings and stuff. From this oval shape, it gets a little bit wider. Because a little bit wider like this. If you want to kind of imagine how wide you want your wing to be. A little bit wider if you'd like. Maybe it comes in a little bit. I haven't ended anything yet. Alright, let me show you the next step here. So far I have this diagonal shape. It doesn't have to match up perfectly to our reference, but this diagonal shapes nonetheless, right? I'm going to build the wing. Do you guys see how the wing kinda separates from the body? They're a little bit, you can see the bottom of the tummy and then you can see the wing. That's the new line that I'm going to add in. If this is the diagonal direction of my bird, that one kind of goes sideways a little bit. So with that as a reference, you can not have pick-up Your line, if you want to block in a rough line like that, you can. But I'm just building in now the shape of the wing, the shape that I can see. Then when you're ready, if you want, you kinda start to build the end. You can kind of connect back. You can put little U-shaped if you'd like. Start to see me building in these little use. You don't have to build in the U-shapes if you don't want to, if you just want to point, have a point or something you can. But I'm starting to build the side of the wings. Can also add little U-shaped. They don't have to be perfectly straight lines because a lot of times they aren't. So this diagonal line here, if you want to make it slightly bumpy or out a bit extra to your curve. You can see I just did that. You can. We've got our circle head or oval body. You can still see the bottom here. And then we're making it wider because realistically or bird isn't like a tadpole, doesn't really have a thin body. It has something to it right? Has the base. I did make those wider on each side. I'm starting to build the back. So if you want to be more diagonal or more straight, you can just roughing up those lines a little bit so they're not so perfect. And I'm getting back here to the other part of my wing here as well. If you want to start adding some short lines or making a little bit less perfect, not as not as curved and straight. You can start adding little details like I did. I'm shining a couple there. As I wake my way back to the body, I'm solidifying the lines I want to keep. Alright, so this edge here, as I get closer to my head, you'll see I'm just adding a couple of bumps on my weight in my head. So just have a bump kind of in-between. I kinda think of it like the soft part of a bird's neck. It's not, it is thin, but it has protective feathers. Feathers just going over the head here. So I'm still keeping that kinda circle shape for the most part. But from the bottom of the neck is almost like a diagonal line versus a curve. Can you see the diagonal line kinda being built now versus the side of a C or a backward C. Purely my body doesn't connect to the bottom yet. It's probably because I am going to add the tail. I'll just put it in a triangle shape so you can see where it's going if you wanna make it wider or longer or shorter, remember, you can just make my little wider. And then I can build those details in. It's like a triangle that points in the body. If you're doing the bird with the wings open, very similar base, right head and body. Very similar. But the wings are, of course coming out. So you can try that if you'd like. I will draw a little sketch of that somewhere so you can see up the feet are kind of coming out like two little lines so you can add the feet if you'd like. I'm just adding a very thin triangle. I'm making sure not to leave the point like, really pointy like a triangle is. I'm just going to curve it a little bit, but for now you'll see I'm just adding in the beak. And then I've curved the top a little bit. So that's kinda the base that I have. If you're adding the feet in with me, I almost think of it as two lines and then the lines of a triangle, like the outside lines. So it's almost like I'm building a triangle without the bottom. And then I just doubled those up. And there's a third kind of little section here. If you want to add them in, you can, if you want to make them bigger or smaller, Go for it. As long as you have some feet, That's okay. I feel like these are pretty big. So this is where I'm thinking about proportion compared to my whole body. My leg looks like it's going to come free. I like it super big. I'm gonna make it a little smaller. Because if I take my pencil and just using it like a ruler, if I go to the edge of my foot, it hits about the side of my face, which is fine. But if I look at my reference, it hits the body versus the face. So that means I gotta make it a lot smaller. Okay, so just thinking about proportions there. You ever use pen and you do make a mistake, that's okay. This is a fun or challenging part where you integrate that within your piece, right? Sometimes I'll try to do really thin lines. And I know it's hard. Like sometimes it's hard and sometimes they don't stay as that. Right. I go over and I'm like, oh no, I missed a spot and then I go over it again. And then I'm like, Oh, it's getting there. It's uneven and then I go over it again and then it's like three lines that are now beside each other. But you can play with that with different line weights. That can be the thick side, there can be some thin sides. Your outline can be a little bit thicker. Lots of different ways you can go about that. But don't sweat it, right? You can always make it a part of your piece. A little circle, circle. The eyes will look kind of spooky if you don't color them in. So I would recommend coloring it and leaving a little shine mark if you'd like. You can use colored pencil or you can use your pencil. But just so it doesn't look as spooky, you can color it a little bit. I did leave a little bit of a shine mark. And I'm just gonna kinda block off the areas where there is a bit of color change. Remember, this depends on how you're doing your burden, meet any kind of work, right? You can make it up if you'd like. So it doesn't have to follow these same lines, but roughly just to give it a little bit of a realistic look, I think I'm also going to make the body a little bit bigger, just a little bit wider. Personally, but you can make yours whatever size you feel comfortable. But wherever I want it to look like it has feathers and things, I'm just going to block off those areas for from the eye to the back of the body, There's a little bit of a dark patch in our reference. So I'm just going to leave a little bit of a dark patch here, added a triangle underneath my head. There's almost like a curve, almost like about separating the head and the body. A couple of lines here. So I almost added like to triangle shapes. You don't have to do this. Of course if you don't want to. I'm going to add some separations for some little sections of the wing. Maybe the feathers get a little bit different here. And then now if you wanted to add the different lines in there, you could as well. So e.g. if you just wanted to see not drawing all of them right now because I want to jump to my next shape. But at this point hopefully you've got at least one picture. You can come back and color it later or add more designs. But this is the base that I've got. I will be drawing the open when one as well in a moment. But because they have a similar base, I'm gonna do the wing first and then I'm going to come back. Okay? 3. Sketching the Wings and Details: The wing in our demonstration goes this way. I'm going to be building it this way just to fit my space and then I can cut off or like half the edge of the wing here and the tip on that side. So if anyone wants to try when you can try it in either direction. The nice part is it's a pretty basic shape and you just build the little feather details in. So what I'm gonna do for mine, if you want to use a ruler, you can, but I'm going to just roughly build in. Please remember your spaces to don't go all the way to the edge. Leave a little bit of space if you need. But I'm just making the length of my wing. I'm just gonna go pretty close to my guidelines that I made here. And I'm just going to make it almost like a curve. Almost reminds me of like an eagle. I'm just going to be going over the spine so it's not super straight. And then you'll see I just went and I almost added like a C-shape to all the other sides. And as I got closer to the middle, I got them to be a little bit smaller. What I'm doing next is I'm just adding every time I add the end of the CH, just going to come towards my day inside of my wing a little bat wings are a little bit easier than the building of this body. So it would be a fun touch to add in. It also added in berries or branches. But those that did want to add a bird that was flying, I am just redrawing the head and the body shape. So that's what I'm gonna do here on the bottom. I'm just going to take a couple of minutes. Might want to label them just so we know what's going on. And how do all these animals relate together? Are they all relate together because they're all hybrid animals and made me want to write that somewhere. Maybe you are a scientist and you went out in the world and you're like, wow, these animals are wild and then you drew all of them and then you're like, This one's a whole mix of this, this one to make some things. You don't have to do all that writing, but you can label them if you'd like, just so we know what it is. Also make sure you have lots of beautiful outlined and details on the outside. Make sure you match up and put some details on the inside, okay. If you want to keep it more of a pencil sketch and you just want to shade because it is a lot of commitment to add color. You can cheat a little bit, add a little bit of color, but you don't have to 4. Colouring the Scientific Bird: I'm going to use this blue just to outline some edges. I'm probably going to go in with some brown or black or gray just for the darker areas are even used my pencil. And then I'm thinking that that's pretty much it from my color. If I have any pops of color, I will go in with a lighter blue. I'm going to just aim to do biggest basis, just small spaces. I'm going to just color this first. I'm not going to color these two yet because I want to work on balancing out my face. I don't want to leave that empty by the time we're done class. So in these two extra spaces that I have, I'm going to write a little bit of stuff. You can see it and it matches up to the idea of a scientific drawing that I mentioned before. If you're nervous about adding more, you can also add something in pencil, decide if you're going to keep it and then go from there. You can also keep it light thing. So if you want to in contrast, have something that's lighter and in the background you can use colored pencil or use lines that aren't filled in with marker and then you'll have that. But I'm going to fill in that text with a more scientific part of what we're talking about today. So if this is the wing here, I do have quite a bit of space here that I can get rid of. So I'm going to use my ruler just so I know it's site-to-site, it's not diagonal what I'm writing. I think that's about it. And I don't wanna go too close to the edge, but somewhere here at the top, I'm going to write way. You can write it in regular letters, cursive letters, whatever you'd like. I'm just going to write like a kinda like almost like a curvy, almost like a cursive wings. And then if you want to write anything specific you can say about wings. And I'll put something in brackets because the wing word is here, but the wings are actually there, right? So I don't want it to be too far off. Okay, so put wings, blue and gray. I'm just gonna put an arrow so I can kinda roughly 0.2 specific things. And I'll write something about what it eats and then something about the wind speed, flying. That's it. I was debating between writing Bluejay or gray j are making some ups. So I might put gray and blue jay, But I'm trying to fill out these spaces here. Remember I'm writing a couple of things down. I'm just going to write some stuff to help fill up the negative space, balancing things out. I'm just writing, often migrate in the winter. So I'm just adding things about our species here, right? And then I'm erasing any of the extra lines I don't need. I'm going to take a few minutes here just to wrap up some of the open space that I have. As I mentioned, we are working on space and the proportions of some of the details that we have going on. I did start to add a couple of words and I'm just erasing. So unlike guidelines, but you can write anything you'd like. You can fill out that space with images as well as you'd like. I know some people prefer pictures to wear it, so that's cool as well. As long as you're thinking about those important parts and maybe labeling particular areas. So I got them there, I've got some there. I do want to draw a couple of berries or something just so it helps describe certain parts. Decide where I want to write the details about it. Using my ruler as a guideline for myself. And then I think it's filed. Barry, feel like in the past there was a lot of cursive, so you can write in it any kind of writing you'd like, but you'll see me just kinda curbing some of my letters are making them in a cursive style. It's wild berries, bugs, bugs. And in joy is red berries. So you can really play with how you describe all your stuff. It doesn't have to be super realistic in that sense. It can be made up You can add your own personal touches to it. It can be your hybrid animal if you want it to go that route. Start to see me just filling in a couple of details. I'm just going to describe how long the wing is or how fast it can fly just in the extra space. Middle one right here. Rings are 51010. Rings are 10 cm long and 5 cm tall. In height. You can see if kinda balanced out a little bit of text, a little bit of drawing, an added bit of extra color to some of these areas here, some berries. And then I'm just about done. Also fun things you can think about if you wanted, as you can think about layering colors, if you want to create shadows are darker areas. So anywhere I think their shadow like right under my wing here I can add more gray or layer on some of the blue and my hand want to add some variety, some changes in color since I'm not using too much today. Just a little bit of slight change. So I'm just going to layer on a bit of this extra blue underneath here, just so it has some extra shadow. I'm also going to carry this blue in around my body here just so it's not only at the bottom. So that's something I noticed what's happening. Just kind of recurring at the bottom there and I want to make sure it's pretty even throughout. If there are changes in color, can also use different colors. I don't have to carry the blue hallway, but I'm trying to use simpler colors or keep the colors kinda minimal. I'd say I've got quite a bit of blue here. Maybe I'll use a little bit of the light blue just to lighten certain areas up. And then around the head, I think I'm just going to keep teasing a little bit of gray and black. Just dark blue. Nothing too wild. I also kinda wanna match up these colors to the colors that I used here. Tiny little bit of extra blue. Any extra pencil lines I don't need, I can probably erase if you wanted to shade anything, of course can add some extra as well around the wings here I'm going to keep using this darker blue. Just give out a quick outline. So they do match up. But feel free to play around with how you customize your animals today. Can add wings and nostrils and you'd like to add really, as long as you've got those base shapes and we can tell what kind of animal it is. And maybe you've added some descriptors. It'll help make it look more like our scientific dry drying that had some details and explanations around it. Thanks, wasp polar and shadows. And then I think writing wise and pretty comfortable, I'm going to add some berries or something in those extra spaces. I didn't add an arrow somewhere and I don't want that to be the only arrow. So I'm just going to put a little arrow to the barriers that are going to come up here. And up here. Just so they're kind of balanced out. I'm shading the back wing a little bit more here just so they separate from the way that I can see. A bit brighter. This one here. Pencil lines. Of course, if you did want to go over this with pen or marker to make those lines pop. That's something I usually do notice. Sometimes just to make certain areas Boulder or pop out the more significant areas you can do that if you'd like. I'm going to stick to doing that with my pencil line and so my shadows. So when I go back in and just outline anything that's really important or I went like to start and didn't touch up afterwards That's a variance. The variance of course, come in lots of different shapes and things. Shapes and colors and designs. I'm spending a little bit of this dark bluey violet here, almost like blueberries, I might use even a little bit of red or something. I liked the shape of blueberries, so it almost looks like a little crown on top of them. So I'm just doing the same kind of pattern. I'm just gonna add a couple of different sizes. Just going to take my brown, I'm just going to add some thin branches. They're kinda connect. And I think I want to add a little bit of red to some of these, so I'm just going to pick up all that red. I'm going to overlap some colors here. I'm going to make sure I'm going around the edges here. You can already see what's happening with the overlap. Just going around. I can do similar things with my birds as well just to make certain areas pop. But I'm not going to use red. I'm probably just going to use a similar color. I got a couple of barriers there. I do have my writing here for my name. I do feel like I can scooch it up just slightly because there is a little bit of space there. And then go for it with pencil. I think I'm just going to gently erase this though and bring it a little bit higher. Figuring out some of the last areas. I think I'm just going to add a couple of berries here in their branches. Cool. Just going to take 2 min just to wrap up some of the details. And then otherwise I'm just going to use black just so I can add certain shadows just like I would with pencil. But this way I don't have to go over it with pencil and black at the end. This will give it an extra crops just while I'm in here. Anywhere I want to keep pretty light. I'm just using the black outline. The edge are not really going in with shading too much. I'm going to do my wing. And I think I'm just going to add a bit more blue as there is a blue jay, I want to make sure that it's clear. It's not just one kind of light shade. So I'm not adding too much color. I haven't filled every single Kravis, but this way, I do have a bit of extra color. But have this aqua color. I think that would look really nice with a little bit of the dark blue that I already have going on. So I'm just going to add that in particular areas not everywhere. Also think about that when you're drawing not every single section or every single area is going to have the same type of colors because maybe they're on different sides are different parts of your animal. So I just copied the same aqua color on the open side that we see here. And on the inside of the way I'm going to go Layer one more color. And then I think otherwise, I'm just about done. There you have it. This is my scientific drawing from today. Remember the big focuses when we were drawing is thinking about shapes to build up our animal. That's some of the best things that we usually use in a lot of bird drawings, but also thinking about proportions. So how all the different parts of our animal relates to each other. So e.g. how the head shape relates to the body, making sure they're balanced, but also make sure that the tail isn't too big for the body and the wings and so on. So thinking about proportions of different animals or your brakes specifically, but also thinking about the space that you're using. So that's why we did a little sketch when we started just making sure that we're planning out where some of our pictures go. Our minimum was trying to have at least two pictures in our space and then maybe balance it out with words or other little visuals that relate to what we're working with. I hope everyone had a fun time trying this out. And we look forward to seeing you next time. Thanks everyone. Bye.
