Frame 1

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 1

Hey guys, my name is Riven Phoenix and welcome to the start-up of man learn to draw the human


Frame 2

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 2

figure from your mind training course.


Frame 3

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 3

So in the previous lesson we pretty much have now proved that the training process that


Frame 4

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 4

we are taking the mind through in understanding figure drawing is paying off it because


Frame 5

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 5

we were able to do all these different styles of drawing of the human skull in all these


Frame 6

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 6

different angles, proving the concept to what Da Vinci is really saying about the power


Frame 7

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 7

of formulas, and within that what we are doing is really taking his concept and then looking


Frame 8

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 8

at the process of cognitive thinking how really the mind really needs like this story


Frame 9

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 9

that it needs to go through to understand figure drawing, we are taking all the fuzzy


Frame 10

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 10

areas out in figure drawing so when you are drawing it out it doesn't question it, right?


Frame 11

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 11

It has this really deep down understanding of the figure.


Frame 12

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 12

It's the same thing as it you have gone to let's say your four year school of learning


Frame 13

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 13

about art and when you are creating those paintings in the back of your mind you know


Frame 14

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 14

all the experience that you went through in your class how the teacher told you how to


Frame 15

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 15

do things how to correct your mistakes, how to understand color, how to understand


Frame 16

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 16

drawing in your life drawing classes, right?


Frame 17

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 17

It's just deep story when you are drawing it out.


Frame 18

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 18

So in this sense what we are seeing is that this process that we are going through in


Frame 19

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 19

this course which is the structure of man is really the story of the human figure that


Frame 20

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 20

we are embedding in the mind, right?


Frame 21

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 21

It's again comes down to the process of these peg systems in memory management as to how


Frame 22

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 22

we are connecting the dots as we how we started out with a blueprint then created a story


Frame 23

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 23

one by one through the lessons so we could get to this point, right?


Frame 24

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 24

So you should really give yourself a pattern of back to be able to have come to this point


Frame 25

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 25

from let's say if you didn't know how to draw the human skull to be able to do this.


Frame 26

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 26

So now what I'm going to show you is I'm going to introduce you to the forms of the human


Frame 27

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 27

figure, right?


Frame 28

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 28

We're really just done with this area of the skull but I need to show you this area here


Frame 29

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 29

is because I want you to get to the use to the idea is what does it mean to understand


Frame 30

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 30

the forms of the human figure.


Frame 31

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 31

So if we take a look at Michelangelo, right, if you look at Michelangelo, right?


Frame 32

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 32

In his studies, remember he burned all the studies so we only have only a handful of them


Frame 33

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 33

to understand but if you look at his studies, right, through his studies we could state


Frame 34

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 34

in this artistic thinking that what he's getting at is that the mastery of the human figure


Frame 35

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 35

not only is understanding the complete structure of how the bones are put together because


Frame 36

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 36

you can see it's obvious over here, right?


Frame 37

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 37

And not only understanding all the muscles, but also the surface anatomy.


Frame 38

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 38

And the surface anatomy will come from understanding the forms of the human figure, how the planes


Frame 39

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 39

of the human figure play around on the human body, right?


Frame 40

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 40

So what this means is that if you look at the bench, right, again, all the stuff that


Frame 41

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 41

I'm seeing, right, you've got to keep in mind that this is all artistic thinking, it's


Frame 42

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 42

thinking out loud.


Frame 43

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 43

It means absolutely nothing to us.


Frame 44

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 44

It's not something that we religiously believe in these ideas, right?


Frame 45

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 45

We just want the mind to go through this process of thinking.


Frame 46

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 46

It's very, I want to be clear about this, that all the stuff that I'm showing you here,


Frame 47

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 47

this is called artistic thinking, that's what's allowing us to be able to draw the skull


Frame 48

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 48

in such, make such rapid progressing in figure drawing because we can use the part of artistic


Frame 49

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 49

thinking to help it understand, right?


Frame 50

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 50

So over here, see where DaVinci has done this drawing, but over here he's showing the


Frame 51

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 51

formals because he's getting to a point here, obviously, right?


Frame 52

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 52

He's showing that the power formulas will give you an obvious statement, obvious meaning


Frame 53

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 53

that what that means is when you're drawing up the figures like this, right, when we draw


Frame 54

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 54

up the skull, like if we were drawing out this before without understanding it, right,


Frame 55

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 55

we would have to look at something and draw it out, but because we created all the formulas


Frame 56

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 56

and understood it, it becomes an obvious statement, meaning that when DaVinci is drawing


Frame 57

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 57

it in his mind, right, what's happening is that when he's drawing these angles out,


Frame 58

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 58

the human figure like this, see the bones and all this, in his mind it is obvious that


Frame 59

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 59

this is how it's going to be, the design of the face is going to be like this and it's


Frame 60

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 60

obvious that there's a line over here, the muscle area over here and it's obvious that


Frame 61

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 61

the neck looks like this, right, the entire body, right?


Frame 62

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 62

So if you look at the first drawing that I did in the beginning of these lessons, this


Frame 63

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 63

going here, what I was showing you is that the proof of what DaVinci was saying in that


Frame 64

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 64

drawing, right, when I was drawing this out in that process of drawing, it is obvious


Frame 65

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 65

that this is how the figure is going to look like, right, because the mind has enough


Frame 66

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 66

experience of this, right, I think you understand what I'm getting at in the concept of what


Frame 67

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 67

figure drawing is, what the mastery straight really looks like, everything just becomes obvious


Frame 68

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 68

to you that obviously this is what the shoulder is going to look like, this is how the lines


Frame 69

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 69

are going to be, right, but without the actual knowledge of understanding the structure of


Frame 70

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 70

the toolkit and all the muscles, how they're supposed to be, you cannot get to that statement


Frame 71

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 71

that obviously is going to look like this, right?


Frame 72

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 72

So to magnify that point that I'm making about these obvious statements is that now let's


Frame 73

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 73

do use the same concept in drawing at the skull and look at the forms, right?


Frame 74

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 74

So here I'm just going to show you a very simple template idea here.


Frame 75

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 75

So let's say that this is going to be the, let's say an idea here for the head over


Frame 76

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 76

here.


Frame 77

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 77

Just same thing as I, as if I'm drawing the human head here in a three-fourth's view,


Frame 78

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 78

okay?


Frame 79

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 79

Here I'm just going to draw it out like this and I'm going to do this line over here and


Frame 80

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 80

I'm going to obviously do this jaw over here, right?


Frame 81

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 81

Because it's obvious that it is coming from here, right?


Frame 82

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 82

This is what I'm getting at.


Frame 83

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 83

So when you, when we know that this is going to be the center for the eye line over here,


Frame 84

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 84

right?


Frame 85

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 85

And this is where the whole skull will develop.


Frame 86

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 86

So if you look at the forms, the forms are going to be basically like this.


Frame 87

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 87

This is the top of your brow area over here, right?


Frame 88

Figure Drawing - Figure Drawing Lesson 018 - The Journey to 3/4 view of Human Skull - Part 6 - Frame 88

So first I'm going to show you the forms here and over here, because we know how this
