Asked for help
I have a question, as a total beginner: should I be drawing at a table, or should I get an easel and learn to draw standing/sitting at the easel with the sketchbook vertical? My ultimate goal is to learn to do figure/portraits with oil paint, but, I've heard that painting is seven eights drawing, hence my starting with this course.

I think personal preference plays a lot into this. If you can afford to acquire an easel it would be great to practice and see if you like it. I know some artists use drafting tables to draw on, some draw on flat tables, some draw standing up. I recommend experimenting with what’s most comfortable and accessible to you.

First attempt, and first drawing. It came out much better than I expected! Excited for the course; figured it's time to learn to draw at 40, lol, because I've always wanted to.

Awesome! Good luck with the course 🍀
