REFERENCES!

Aside from real life, references are awesome ways to increase to your drawing ability! Here's a great starting off  https://sites.google.com/site/allthingsart2012/tutorials/references

Personally, I enjoy browsing the stock photos from http://www.deviantart.com/ 

My bookmarks have made their own site!

Actually, I felt guilty I was holding access to all these great sites and wanted to put them somewhere anyone could access them. :D

new pencil new sketches


I was watching a video the other day and this dude was tearing up a sketch with the cleanest lines. HOW ON EARTH IS THIS POSSIBLE? Turns out, he was using a Staedtler-Lead-Holder. This is the coolest pencil I've drawn with in my life. I love the light lines!

another photo study

Wasted a lot of time trying to find the colors. It's very frustrating.

Want to draw?

    Over the past few months I frequent people poppin places and sketch. And at least once a day I end up chatting with a stranger about drawing, art, famous artists, etc. I love that. I wish there was a big sign on my back that said lets talk about art!

    And I'd say about half of em say "I can't draw". "I wish I could draw".  I then reply with it's just like everything else, practice. And I also like to drop that quote about everyone having 100,000 bad drawings in them. So ya just gotta draw more than 100,000 drawings and boom! They usually look at me like I don't know what I'm talking about and move on.
