I would say it is advisable to use fineliners. Different drawing tools have different qualities and therefore are all used a bit differently. If you are warming up for drawing with fineliners in your homework or practice it makes sense to use the same paper and the same pen in those warm ups.
Yeah, I agree. Fineliners require a more thoughtful and prudent approach to drawing, which is one of the mentalities this course aims to reinforce. Not using them for course material would be detrimental to my overall progression. Fineliners are obviously a bit more pricey than some other drawing materials, so I don't want to use them unnecessarily / treat them inappropriately. Guess I'll just have to suck it up, lol. Thanks for the reply.
No problem. Shop around for fineliners. I don't know where you are ( I'm in the UK ) but I get these ones and they are very good and work out just over 1 pound each which is pretty reasonable. They last quite a long time too.
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.
