My day 1 sketch :) I drew a sculpt from my friend @Alec Brubaker
LESSON NOTES
Establish a Daily Drawing Routine
Challenge yourself to draw every day. Try to get into the routine of drawing daily. Set aside a specific time, and put it in your calendar. If you're already drawing every day, push yourself a bit further. Draw a bit longer or try something new. However, don't go overboard. Set a manageable goal, especially since we'll have another project coming up later.
Daily Drawing Exercise
Each day, fill up one page with linear drawings from life. You can go outside and draw when inspiration hits, or find something at home to draw. Take a photo of your object if you like.
Steps for Your Drawing
- Observe your subject for one minute without drawing. Imagine it as a drawing.
- Begin drawing by sketching a few lines.
- Look, think, and execute. Repeat this process until you're done.
Each drawing can take 5 to 30 minutes, but don't worry about timing them.

Day 3. Started drawing 2 weeks ago or so now. Enjoying the focus and shutting the noise out while zoning in. Took a picture of this guy while on a walk recently, so tried to challenge myself. Took a full hour over lunch. Messy and I didn't want to shade at all but accidentally did a few bits! At least it has the right number of legs.....
STILL find myself chicken scratching. But tried hard to simplify on the outline, wins etc and break it up into simpler lines. A few bits where my pencil wandered around details though which weren't necessary - and I only drew basics for the wood before I ran out of time, mostly focused on the robin.
Some of the propositions and placement are off (front chest feathers). And the angle of the top of the head is wrong, how did I miss that!
Digital again with stylus. Finding this so tough! Everything seems to take way longer than I'd hope. Getting lines and curves down where I want them is hard. Did not like the shading on the shadow! Should have left blank.
I did get some nice feeling sinlge confident Lines on the bottom half of each side. Still need to really think hard to use elbow and shoulder
Day 12! A deckbox, a toilet paper roll and a candle holder. Feeling like I need to slow down more when doing these, think im rushing too much and getting messy :(. But these didnt turn out too bad.
Day 1. Super novice. Digital tablet and stylus today. Back to paper tomorrow. Focusing on CSI and contours. Still not confident!
Proportions off on the yellow guy a little.. too tall
Day 10! A hand grip strenght trainer thing, a nail clipper, a spray bottle and a toothpaste tube. A bit messy, but im proud at the streight lines on the nail clipper, small victories!
Day 8! Over half way there! Tried drawing simpler looking stuff today. A can, a table and an air fryer
Day 5 a coffee Machine and a weird robot toy (I now understand every artist that hates drawing machinery and mechas, this was hellish). I drew these yesterday but forgot to post them :(
