Back again with another update. This practice session has continued to go well. Excited with the progress being made even though I am still making a lot of mistakes. But! I can see progress.
This experience of keeping track of my progress has been a great journey. Again a should out is necessary to Jesper who gave my first review over at Proko. He really gave me what I needed to get my head back on track.
It seems like the most important things are consistency in practice and making sure that you are not jumping from one thing to the next. Stick with the assignment and practice that. You may not see progress for a while but then something will click and you will start making progress.
Also it seems important to go slower when learning. Michael from the FORCE Drawing Method pointed this out in a recent video I watched. He said he thinks this is the secret sauce. You have to slow down so you can take time to learn what is going on. I have found this to be true. When you watch the professionals they just glide over the page, making it seem like you should do the same. But nope … you are no expert … well at least I am not an expert. I’m just starting and slowing down has helped me tremendously.
I got back another review for my Robo Bean drawings and the reviews were very good. Yes, there were still things to improve. But I think this is the hallmark of great teachers/reviewers. They have to also keep you motivated.
Anyway, Either way enough yapping.
Here are all the practice sheets from the last post, including some Robo Beans.
