This submission was done for the Like Clowns in a Bank drawing prompt. Check out more submissions here!

My initial idea was to draw the friends I have on discord who help provide social interaction and amusement to me with parts of them exaggerated to signify the "clownlike" aspcets of them, unfortunately I kept getting stuck with that idea so instead I just made discord itself into the clown. I think I'll start implementing more drawing from reference in the remaining prompts as these first three have fairly thoroughly convinced me that working from imagination alone won't work great (unless it's a box of some sort that I'm drawing) until I've actually developed my knowledge of those other things I want to add to my art from having gained experience from practicing with reference

With how saturated the market is, it is tough for such projects to get eyes on their work.

Marshall Vandruff's Perspective Course

Marshall Vandruff's Perspective Course

Marshall Vandruff is a ubiquitous name in art instruction - not just through his work on the Draftsmen podcast and his other collaborations with Proko, but in his own right. He's been teaching anatomy, gesture, and perspective for decades, and a number of my own friends have taken his classes at the Laguna College of Art and Design (back around 2010), and had only good things to say about him. Not just as an instructor, but as a wonderful person as well.

Many of you will be familiar with his extremely cheap 1994 Perspective Drawing lectures, but here he kicks it up to a whole new level.

Remember that when you agree with something another user has written, you are putting your own reputation behind it.

Consider the following:

  • If it's homework feedback, does it address each section of the lesson/challenge, or only briefly touch upon one or two exercises?
  • Does it provide clearly defined next steps for the student to follow?
  • Have you read through it thoroughly, or are you simply agreeing so the student earns a superficial badge?
  • Replies you agree with will be visible in your sketchbook

Agreeing blindly just to be nice is a good way to get your permissions associated with this function revoked, so make sure that you genuinely feel that the response is beneficial to the student.
