If you want to learn more:

  • Anya Brock - I did her botanical painting workshop recently and it inspired me to do more blind contour drawing!
  • Sketching Now - Liz Steel's Foundations course goes into detail of different ways of seeing, and how to capture a reference with and without guide lines. Amazing sketchbook work drawing from life and on location.
  • Stephanie Sheppard - I learned the comparative measurement stuff from her, she sometimes runs workshops.
  • Drewscape (Youtube) - a quick primer on contour drawing, also a great sketching channel with chill vibes.
  • Sticc and Thicc life drawing - drawing from life is the best, and if you liked the chill vibes my class you might like this one. Runs twice a month.

Warning if you go to look at my art - there is some (illustrated) nudity from the above life drawing sessions with a nude model!
