Well, let me tell ya, this drawin’ thing, it ain’t as easy as it looks. But these NBA logos, they got folks all riled up, wantin’ to draw ’em. So, I reckon I can tell ya a thing or two. Now, I ain’t no fancy artist, but I seen a thing or two in my day.
First off, you gotta get yer paper and yer pencils. Don’t need nothin’ fancy, just somethin’ to make marks with. Then, you gotta pick which one of them NBA logos you wanna draw. They got that basketball player, all red, white, and blue. That one, they say it’s the main one. And all the teams got their own, too. Like that bear, from when the team was in, uh, Vancouver. They call it the Grizzlies. I hear folks say to start with the easy shapes for drawin’ NBA logos. Then you add the fancy stuff later.
- Get yer paper and pencils.
- Pick an NBA logo, like the main one or a team one.
- Start with easy shapes, like circles and squares.
Now, I seen folks drawin’, and they make it look easy. They say, “Start with the easy shapes.” Like, for that basketball player, you start with a big rectangle. Then you add some lines for his arms and legs. It don’t gotta be perfect, just get the general idea. These city folk, they call it “proportions.” Means gettin’ the size right, I reckon. And that’s important for drawin’ them NBA logos.
Then you gotta add the details. That’s the tricky part. You gotta look real close at the picture and see all the little lines and curves. This fella Siegel, he made that red, white, and blue one back in, uh, ’69. I heard he made logos for them big companies, too. I heard he didn’t even charge much for that NBA logo, only 14 dollars. Now that’s what I call a bargain!
For that bear one, the Grizzlies, you start with a big circle for his head. Then you add some smaller circles for his ears and snout. Then you gotta draw his eyes and his teeth. He’s got a mean look, that bear. But don’t you worry, just take it slow. Ain’t no rush. These young’uns, they wanna do everythin’ fast. But good things take time, I always say. Just keep practicin’ them NBA logos.
And this “shading” thing, that’s what makes it look real, they say. Like the sun’s hittin’ it just right. You gotta make some parts darker and some parts lighter. Like when the sun’s shinin’ on a basketball, one side’s all bright, and the other side’s kinda dark. Same idea. And that’s what you do with them NBA logos, too.
- Add the details, like the lines and curves.
- Practice that “shading” to make it look real.
- Look at how the light hits things, like a basketball.
Now, I ain’t sayin’ you gonna be drawin’ like them fancy artists right away. It takes practice. Lots of practice. You gotta keep at it, even when it gets frustratin’. Just remember that bear, or that basketball player. They all start with them simple shapes. And them fancy lines come later.
Don’t be afraid to mess up. That’s how you learn. Just like when you’re learnin’ to ride a bike, you gonna fall down a few times. But you get back up, and you try again. Same with drawin’ them NBA logos. You gonna make mistakes. But you just erase ’em and start over. Keep doin’ that ’til it looks right to ya.
You need to look close at the things you’re drawin’. See how the light hits ’em, see how the shadows fall. That’s how you make it look real. They say you need to pay attention to “perspective” too. I ain’t really sure what that means, but I think it’s about makin’ things look like they’re far away or close up. And that’s important for them NBA logos, to get the drawin’ right.
And don’t you be comparin’ yerself to them other folks. Everyone learns at their own pace. Some folks, they just got a knack for it. Others, it takes ’em a little longer. Don’t matter. Just keep at it, and you’ll get there. You’ll be drawin’ them NBA logos just fine.
- Don’t be afraid to mess up. That’s how you learn.
- Look close at things, see how the light hits ’em.
- Don’t compare yerself to others. Everyone learns at their own pace.
So, there you have it. My two cents on how to draw them NBA logos. It ain’t rocket science, but it ain’t easy either. Just remember to start with them simple shapes, add the details, and practice that shading. And don’t give up. You keep at it, and you’ll be drawin’ like a pro in no time. Just gotta have patience. And a good eraser!
I remember one time I tried to draw a picture of my old dog, Buster. He was a good dog, but Lordy, he was hard to draw. I kept messin’ up his ears, couldn’t get ’em to look right. But I kept at it, and finally, I got a picture that looked somethin’ like him. It weren’t perfect, but it was good enough for me. It’s the same with them NBA logos. They might not be perfect at first, but you keep workin’ at it, and they will get better.
Now you just go on and give it a try. Don’t be scared. Just remember what that old lady told ya. Start simple, add the fancy stuff later, and keep on practicin’. You’ll get there. You’ll be drawin’ them NBA logos before you know it. And maybe, just maybe, you’ll even enjoy it. Drawin’ can be a right relaxin’ thing, once you get the hang of it. Just like sittin’ on the porch on a warm summer evenin’, watchin’ the sun go down. Peaceful. That’s what drawin’ can be. Peaceful.
