As of recent I have lost motivation to continue drawing. I blame it on my indecisiveness in relation to choosing and sticking with a drawing surface. In this matter I seek guideance. Before picking up the course, my intention was learning to draw standing infront of an easel. But I have experienced frustrations with some of the exercises, in particular learning to shade with the tip. I feel like it is difficult to attain control on an easel without discomfort, e.g. when resting the wrist for fine lines. I am aware that doubt is inevitable in any creative field, but I haven't had succes cirumventing it. Also, it should be noted, that I have tried drawing while sitting in front of my easel, but the frame is too narrow to fit the legs of my chair, which makes it impossible for me to be close enough to it. What do you suggest? That I stick with the easel but disregard certain techniques in favour of others, or that I simply execute them differently (e.g. not resting the wrist whilst I apply a trippod grip) and accept the outcome? I guess my main goal with this post is to get reassurance that I can learn to draw soley on an easel. The easel in question is pictured. Thanks in advance.
