It’s here! The Draw Basics course is now available. A true beginners course aimed at teaching you core drawing fundamentals.
Hi guys
my atempt to do the first task, i used hb, 2b,4b and 6b.
I would like some feedback on it, pls.
My 2nd pass at this: the 1st I did the way I normally draw portraits and halfway through realized I was ignoring everything Stan was teaching! ROFL Watching his demo afterwards made me appreciate what a mistake I made trying to use a single pencil for shading: lesson learned. Feedback welcome!
Why are you drawing in this notebook, please buy a sketchbook or Atleast use plain unruled paper.
Done with mechanical pencils (2B). Might need to simplify more. Struggled with nose and lips.

Nice drawings Mario. Really good rendering, although for this one you're right, you may want to simplify more. For this exercise it's all about having hard boarders between the different values, and not having them blend together (don't worry, that will come soon!). Keep it up!
My first project! Done with a mechanical pencil. Can’t wait for my set of Staedtler pencils to come in the mail!
I'd try to make the shadow in the pear a little bit darker, but overall, good work! 😊🤙🏻
Before demo with just a number 2 pencil then I went and got shading pencils and I can’t seem to get use to it
It looks like you unified all the light values, and almost all the dark values. I'd try to do it again trying to use 5 values. Using pure black (The blackest black you can get) just for the part right under the pear, and pure white (the paper) for just the highlights. With that we leave 2 values out of the ecuation. You'll have 3 values to play with, and remember "the darkest light is lighter than the lightest dark" 😊
This is my attempt of the first project before reference video! This is super fun!
Solo attempt. Lines are actually pretty hard to make convincing 🫤
i also did a line study to practice CSI. Definitely harder than it looks to draw a smooth line
day 1! did 2 versions with the pear to get a grasp on the method, one no demo, the other with the demo. the portrait is from memory of what was studied in the demo
project #2. It was nice to see how many adjustments the instructor had to make when I finally watched the demo. Made me feel better about all my various mistakes and the time required to fix them.
If you feel like you did this wrong and you got frustrated, it's okay because now you can improve on your skills and your hability to deal with frustration, it's a twoffer! This career is often frustating, so don't worry and don't be discouraged! 😊🤙🏻
I was pretty shocked to find out at 45 years old that I may have the ability to Art. Lol. I am really excited to find out where this goes.
I'm finally getting around to starting this course (and drawing in general), and I have a question:
The course is layed out in subcategories, "Getting Started" "Lines" "Shapes" etc etc, am I meant to just start on the first categorie and work my way through it from start to finish in a linear fashion, or can I also start other subcategories such as lines or shapes and study them concurrently?
This is my animal from imagination show me yours I just got alcohol markers so I thought of colouring this
