Art: Any object consists of simple forms

In that article, we created complex objects using simple forms. Moreover, we made them voluminous. Why did we do this? To create even more complex shapes. But today we will do the opposite. You will n
hardly believe, but absolutely everything that surrounds you can be divided into simple forms. You probably saw step by step tutorials like "l - draw a circle, draw an owl" and other. I can create a hundred of such tutorials about what i have now on my desk. What's the point of this? Yes, you will learn how to draw a dinosaur profile for example, but you can not draw the same dinosaur from another angle without tutorials.
You will satisfy self-esteem, but you will not learn how to draw. So we need to learn how to divide complex shapes into simple shapes.

Look at the kettle. It is usually drawn in this way.

And now we include spatial thinking and logic.
The main part is a semicircle. And a three-dimensional circle is a sphere. The spout of the kettle is a curved hollow cylinder. We add details and get a three-dimensional kettle.

Now, with the example of a Cucuraffer, we'll see how you can divide it into details.

How to divide it into parts? Two options - do it in a way convenient for you, building the whole structure (you can break it into boxes, balls and other) or you can divide it by the spots of joints.

That is, like a doll. For example, I can not divide a numan's forearm into several figures, because this is one big bone and it does not have joints in the middle.

But I can divide the whole hand into three parts - a wrist, a forearm and a shoulder.

Such a focus works everywhere. Do not forget about the details. But we add 'em last. First we need to draw what we will detail. Remember - from bigger to smaller. And no way else. We will not draw the eyes first, and the oval of the face around them. No.
