Artist WAINAO ADRIANO ALVES
ADRIANO ALVES is a Brazilian artist for whom we have great admiration. In addition to an undeniable talent, he has above all a passion for drawing.
He is totally self-taught and the way he evolved can inspire all apprentice draftsmen, artists and if one wants to go further people whatever the field.
The path that borrowed adriano was not a fairy tale, he faced the failure of the doubt and only his desire to progress have allowed him to reach an extremely high level.
He sometimes had moments of discouragement but it never lasted very long and his message is clear "only patience and work" can lead to the top.
We adore him as much for his talent as for his mentality.
ADRIANO TALK ABOUT HIM:
"I was always passionate about drawings, since I was a child I used to draw on any type of white sheet I found. My school notebook had more drawings than text,
When I was 13 years old, I was interested in drawing landscapes using graphite pencils, a gentleman from my town taught me. In a short time, I had enough practice to draw landscapes, but what I wanted the most was learning to make realistic drawings. I was amazed to see drawings that looked like photographs of such perfection, I always thought, "I want to draw something like that one day," but I always thought that to make realistic drawings, I had to go to a drawing school and I often lost hope.
I spent little time in landscape design classes, I began to take interest in animal drawings, I did some classes and then I stopped the course. And later, I decided to stop drawing.
After 5 years without touching a pencil, at 18 the passion came back again, watching various artists on the NET, one of whom is Charles Laveso who is a great artist and reference in realistic drawings.
From then on, I decided to repeat, but this time it would be realistic drawings of people because it was my dream. I began to make realistic drawings. I had no knowledge of the necessary materials other than 2B pencil, for me it was only drawn with a type of pencil.
It did not work right away but I did not give up, I tried to make another realistic drawing and I realized that I was getting better. It was from there that I stopped to think, "What is the secret of the realistic drawing?" It was simply similar to the photo or the image being copied, if all the details of the Photography were transmitted to the paper, then the drawing loaded the same characteristics of the image and would thus be defined as a realistic drawing.
With this concept in my mind, I decided to put it into practice. I began to study the types of materials available on the market that were needed for the design, even with few conditions I acquired two pencils which I remember to date, a 2B and a 6B, J I chose a very complex image, rich in detail and after 36 long hours of dedication, I was happy with the result, I never imagined that one day I could make a realistic drawing, it was my dream and that Was achieved.
Because of the university and the work, I had to put my passion in suspense some time but I never stopped drawing completely.
In 2016, I decided to draw again and not stop whatever the circumstance, I created a youtube channel on which I regularly post my drawings
I consider the main secrets to know how to draw is: patience, dedication and persistence. Patience to make every detail, devote every second, every minute and hour before a drawing and be persistent in winning the challenges."
