Observation - Illustration
It’s almost time for our special session with Animal Life Drawing! What a treat to learn how Holly creates characters based on the form, movement, and personalities of real animals. You'll learn how she develops her drawing thoughts along an illustrative path to create some super cute and charismatic characters. Use code BETHSGANG to get 50% off!
August Sketchbooks
I filled nearly three sketchbooks over the last 30 days. Mostly from all the Zoom meetups, which I’m still obsessed with. I’m doing a proper tour of the sketchbooks for paid subscribers where we’ll also be drawing ladies and dogs from vintage photos later this month via Zoom. If you’re up for a chill drawing sesh, just reply to this email and I’ll be glad to send the info so you can take a test run and see how you like it!
Unpleasant Places
Unpleasant places become opportunities for observation and learning when you put them on paper. I’ve been to the dentist, vet clinic and DMV (twice!) in the past week, and actually enjoyed each visit with my sketchbook. I really love connecting different elements of a room together on the pages.
Where is your favorite unfun place to draw?
Before I forget
Eric and I went to watch his uncle David rock out and it was SO fun to draw.
That’s it for now! Thank you so much for reading.
