Learn how to push and pull an egg shaped form into an exciting dynamic shape.

Drawing is a visual language that can be learned just like any other language, and anyone can pick it up with the right guidance and practice.

The first project of the Drawing Basics course is to challenge yourself to simplify the shapes, edges, and values of a pear or portrait from observation.

Here’s a project to help you avoid chicken scratch. We’re going to simplify our drawings to C curves, S curves, and straight lines.

I'll show you how to use diagonal lines to repeat equal divisions deep into space. This technique makes drawing patterns in perspective much easier.

In this video, I’ll give you an in depth look at what you’ll learn in my Drawing Basics course.

Here is my step-by-step demo on how to properly execute the first assignment for level 1 students.

There is an endless number of ways to use lines as an artist, so let's jump in and take a look at the basics.

Study how costume shapes character by drawing figures from film, focusing on design over technical fold construction.

In our very first critique of the course, I take a look through your simplified pear submissions and give feedback on some of the most common mistakes.

This warmup is a fun way to help you practice drawing ellipses.

In this project, we'll start learning how to sketch using simple loose lines.

Before we start, let's go over tools. I've included an extensive materials shopping list of paper, pencils, markers, erasers, and sharpeners.

A beginner's guide to sketchbooks and paper! Learn about paper types, texture, weight, archivability, and common pitfalls.

Master the Tapered Stroke for confident line quality in your sketches! Learn how to construct complex shapes & add energy to your loose sketches.

Master line quality with 6 key habits: avoid common mistakes, find a comfortable speed, follow-through, ghosting, rotate the paper, and use simple strokes.

I break down the costumes in The 5th Element to show how fashion shapes character roles and builds a unique sci-fi world.

This is our first stop on the path to drawing from imagination.

In this lesson, we’ll learn about the importance of line weight when creating engaging and interesting art.
