How To Create Narrative Drawings Perfectly

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.

There are different types of drawings. One of the most exciting one are called narrative drawings. It is still an art, but with a story in it. You draw a specific shape and you add a story about it. Just a narration, but instead of doing some actions, you illustrate it. If you want to know how to do that, then read on.

The first thing that you should know is to create a concept. You need to have an idea on what you want to create. It can be anything, your imagination is the limit. If you think you like those bizarre ones, then go for it. Creating a brainstorm of ideas might be hard, but if you take your time and study it, it should not be a problem.

Once you finish creating your concept, you can then proceed to the second stage which is the narration part. This is where the main story comes into play. You have to create a story in every shape that you make through the drawing process. For instance, if it is a line, you can narrate it as a road that most people cross or something like that.

Now, it is time for the illustration. It is not that necessary that you know how to draw. Just a basic shape and that should be fine. Before you create a step by step story, make an overview first on what it looks like when it is finish. In that way, it would be easier for you on how to narrate the process. In narrating, be sure that the words you are saying corresponds to what you are illustrating.

The material to be used can be anything. It can be a colored pencil, a charcoal, marker or whatever things that you think you need. In choosing an equipment, be sure to select those high quality ones, because most of the time, if you go for those cheaper versions, the output is not that good, which can ruin everything.

For some, creating ideas is a difficult task. You have to be very creative in order for you to do this. This is not always the case. In fact, every person has ideas, but they are just not that confident to show it to the world.

Once you finish everything, then you are now ready to present that to your friends or your teacher. You can even post that in a social networking site for everyone to see. If you are not that comfortable sharing it, then collecting it is not a bad idea.

This might not be a skill that can be learned overnight, but if you are willing to do whatever it takes to perfect it, then for sure, you can do it. Always learn from your wrong doings and try to correct that every day.
