    Thanks so much! I cannot tell you how excited I am that I finally completed DAB. Your feedback has been so helpful. I did work too quickly on the previous cars (like you said), and I definitely took my time and used a ruler for EVERY part of the additional 2 cars, and it made a world of difference.

    I usually paint and make photography, and just urban sketch for fun and I took this course to help with my drawing. I've really enjoyed taking your course and I think about many of the lessons I've learned when I draw for fun. I know I'll come back to this website for refreshers. Again, thanks so much!

    Thanks for the feedback. I did the electric toothbrush again (twice) and it's hard to visualize the correct proportions. In the second attempt I divided the box into thirds, but the brush part still becomes a bit too short.

    Thanks for the feedback! Am I clear for Lesson 6, or something else? Thanks again.

    Thank you for the detailed feedback. Yes, I do get distracted and want to jump into the details. It's a drawing (and painting) problem that I have battled forever.

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw

Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"

It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
