I mean, when I'm studying I really want to reproduce everything I read or watch, but it will not be always the case. Sometimes I will need to try many many times, read and watch again. But since I'm learning more everytime, I'm not stuck - even if the result I predicted is still not reached.

The portrait I tried: it's not a commission, there is no deadline, it's ok it went wrong.

It's like I want? No. But I'm better than before. That's what matter

Yes, you are absolutely right.

After analysing the problems with my both progress and process is the FEAR OF DRAWING BAD !!!!

Even though I have watched drawabox video about mindset and other videos and so countless times, I still find myself strucking right into this monster.

The fear was so overwhelm that it almost made me quit art few months ago

This fear even knocks on door even when I am doing 50 percent drawing. I find that it has adversely affected the drawing I had done even if they were for fun.

Rapid Viz

Rapid Viz

Rapid Viz is a book after mine own heart, and exists very much in the same spirit of the concepts that inspired Drawabox. It's all about getting your ideas down on the page, doing so quickly and clearly, so as to communicate them to others. These skills are not only critical in design, but also in the myriad of technical and STEM fields that can really benefit from having someone who can facilitate getting one person's idea across to another.

Where Drawabox focuses on developing underlying spatial thinking skills to help facilitate that kind of communication, Rapid Viz's quick and dirty approach can help students loosen up and really move past the irrelevant matters of being "perfect" or "correct", and focus instead on getting your ideas from your brain, onto the page, and into someone else's brain as efficiently as possible.
