Draw a Box buddy

10:53 PM, Friday February 14th 2020

Do users on here ever team up with a buddy to encourage each other to complete the exercises? I found the Art Buddy reddit, but that channel is all over the place. I'd like to work with someone specifically working on the Draw a Box lessons starting at Lesson 1.

I suspect this has been asked before, but I'm just not looking in the right place. I'm a forty three year old self taught artist trying to relearn how to draw starting with the fundamentals. I've attempted DAB before and burned out. Would like to give it another go.

Hey there,

I am a bit in the same situation than you. I tried DAB before but gave up because it was tedious and I couldn't make it fit in my schedule (went procrastinating instead). I am trying to start again from the beggining from today. I am keen on buddying up.

I am 31yo and I dont think of myself as very talented, but I enjoy drawing and would like to get good at it.

Hola HeronBison! Okay, let's work together on this. I'm Zen2019 on Reddit if you'd like to get in contact with me to coordinate schedules. I would send you a PM on here, but I don't think the new DAB platform has that yet.

Color and Light by James Gurney

Color and Light by James Gurney

Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
