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

  1. Observe your subject for one minute without drawing. Imagine it as a drawing.
  2. Begin drawing by sketching a few lines.
  3. 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.

Challenge yourself to draw every day for 2 weeks! See if you can get into the routine of drawing daily.

I'm having fun with these daily sketches! This is a Scene from Mars Attacks, one of my favorite films. I love adding a bit of color to my sketches. Just a splash of color goes a long way. The helmet and alien brain was my favorite part. Trying to make a glass effect with reflection is something I want to get really good at.

A awesome movie and a awesome drawing !

One of my sketches from the daily proko sketch challenge. The iconic Times cover of Muhammad Ali V Sonny Liston. I think it's one of the greatest photos ever made. This is my first of many attempts to sketch and paint this scene and I will note that Liston was much more challenging than Ali to sketch.
Rachel Dawn Owens
Super cool reference and sketch. If you darkened the background behind Ali, you could make him, his gloves and the boxing ring stand out more. I love the red gloves. Nice work!

Day 2 Really tried to respect the proportions in this one. Struggling to avoid chicken lines
Nate Ferguson
The proportions look spot on to me Lucas. Nice one!

Day 3: drew the camel from the earlier exercise. Keeping it to CSI as much as i can. Fighting the urge to chicken scratch

Day 2. Struggled with the wheel, and perspective is hard. This was quite a complicated shape. Lets keep practising:)
Nicholas Allott
Looks great. The wheel is tricky! It's more of an ellipse angling about 45 degrees to the left than a flat circle. Luckily they're covered later in the course (near the end of the 'How Perspective Works' section).
