Drawing is hard. You keep trying and trying and barely make any progress. I remember being there and how frustrating it is. But what if I told you that’s probably just because you don’t know how to truly observe?

I had to learn the fundamentals and rules of drawing before I could break them. A lot of self-taught artists skip the process of learning to see and the deliberate practice that is involved and this leads to holes in their drawing skills that they don’t know how to fix. That’s why I made this class!

I will show you time tested drawing exercises that teach you to truly see and to get good at putting that down on paper; because seeing things as they are and not as your brain thinks they are is the most important core skill in drawing.

Our brains tend to try to fill in the blanks and if we don’t practice truly observing, we’ll never make realistic or believable drawings. In this class, we will do many observational exercises that will help us to truly see our subjects. Once you learn to truly see, your drawings will be more realistic and believable. Even if you heavily stylize your art as I do, you will benefit a lot from learning to truly see first.

I’ll finish off the class on a lesson for deconstructing and stylizing what you see, but this class is mostly on how to improve as an artist by working on the core skills needed. Think of it as a drawing college course that’s sped up. There are tons of exercises that you can do and some are more fun than others, but all of them will make you improve much faster! The only way to get better is with practice and if you do these exercises you will get the best practice you can get to improve as quickly as possible!

So, let’s dive right in! :)
