Hi, I got my BA in 2010 at the age of 50. For my final project I wrote a short story and illustrated it. I had taken a few art classes with the hopes that I would learn to draw. No such luck.
Still trying, still plugging away at learning how to draw.

Hi 🙂 hailing all the way from Denmark. I´m getting into portrait drawing and I was hoping to learn how to draw, rotate and slice a 2 point perspective sphere from all angles (as it is the basis of sketching the head from all angles). I know I can just try and eye ball it but I´m a chronic overthinker and I want to know how to do it right haha 😉
Hi Stefan,
I like your expression of a Chronic overthinker.
You can find multiple videos talking about spheres in the blog.
I share below with you 2 methods.
The simple one:

Hello I am from Montreal Canada, I’ve been sketching on and off for a while but more often these days as my kids have gone away now. I’m seeing that sketching for longer periods of time, my shoulder begins to get soar after while so I was looking for the ergonomically correct way to position myself and came across your site. Also I will take a look at your book I’m sure I’ll learn something. Thank you
Hi Daniel,
Yah, these days, it is better to rest if you feel any pain from your injury – so you would heal faster.
You are right, a body posture will help you long run to draw longer sessions.
Have you seen this article about the shoulder postion?
https://www.thedesignsketchbook.com/how-to-correct-your-curved-lines
It is about one of my students, Jasper who was drawing with a shoulder positioned too high.
Whenever he tried to draw straight lines, they appeared curvy.
To fix this, he just needs to fix his desk and chair height.
For example, I liked my desk and chair set up by IKEA

I am a student of Design… but my drawing skills never developed well… when I was 12yo when started copying from HQ’s… then tried to go to realism without practicing i thought i would be able to draw but not… this made me feel awful and I stopped drawing… till 2018 and got into college to study design I had to draw… felt a bit behind my classmate because they made good draws and when i looked at mine … an error make comparisons( dont do that). Now I have two years and half to graduate and i want to learn how to sketch and draw everything and find my own style and work with illustration!

Well, I want to learn how to sketch so I can be a animator so I can make this animation for this game
I’m a student in 3D computer graphics for games and film, but want to improve my artistic skills as well in order to be properly able to get my vision across.
I have been drawing since I was a kid but never took it seriously enough to learn/study how to draw properly. My drawings still look like a kid’s sketches. I regret wasting so much time as I want to be an artist who has the skill to paint whatever comes to mind.
I also want to explore the field of Concept art; master environments and character design later on.
I was trying to draw something as simple yet highly basic and important as “straight lines” and failed to get them correctly. I looked all over YouTube to find someone who can teach why my lines are bad. And I can say your channel is the only one that truly is helping me with the basics of: lines, circles and ellipses.
And omg! Last night I watched the tutorial on how to draw ellipses and it has finally solved all the issues I had! like magic! my ellipses are not pancakes anymore!
So, I find that designers are really great with such fundamentals so I thought I could use some extra help with this guide. Thank you for all the effort, you are really helpful 🙂
Hello Sam,
I am glad that you could correct your elbow position when you draw ellipses.
It’s so wonderful when you got this “Eureka” moment when you got it!
Drawing is all about simple things that we need to adjust here and there to make a huge difference in our drawing results:)
By the way, you will find some content about Concept art on the blog.

Hello Chou Tac.
I’m a former student of yours
I started the sketch like the pros course but sadly never completed it, I’d speare you the long story and just say I’m back now…I still have a passion for drawing. I tried to see if could access the course link sent to my former account emansjo247@gmail.com but sadly I couldn’t…I really want to draw again, what can I do?
Hi Ojo,
Happy you are back with your passion for drawing!
I have sent an email to you so you can get started. :).
I also need to know moreabout technique. I watch video and the Pro Designer is using Ipad for sketch book, I wonder do we do like that with book and pencil? because guess drawing on Tablet and notebook is different. Should I start with tablet or sketchbook and pencil?
Hi Uyen,
If you use a screen tablet like a iPad or Wacom Cintiq, it gets very similar to the process on drawing with paper.
There are no perfect time to start drawing on tablet. However, drawing on paper is a must. It gets intuitive, and you can draw anywhere you want. It’s spontaneous. Take a pen, draw.
While on tablet is: take your tablet, your pen, on the tablet, open the app, choose your canvas size… Ok it’s fast, but everyday… a regular pen will make a difference. 😉
WANTED TO LEARN RENDERING TECHNIQUES
Me too. I watch video and the Pro Designer is using Ipad for sketch book, I wonder do we do like that with book and pencil?

I’m a Production Engineer, I need to be required basic drawing skills.
Hello, from the US. I’ve always loved drawing and doodling as a kid. Drawing allowed me to be expressive about how I’d feel, but a lot of the time it was just I thought looked cool. As years passed I still drew but not as much as I’d wish. Luckily, recent events have led me to rekindle my passion for art. Now I’ve been left with a lot of ideas and concepts that I would love to see on paper, and through studying from books and teachers I can express them much better than I did as a kid.
That i s great you go back to your passion.
Your ideas and concepts will definitely take forms with a good study of the basics of sketching :). Welcome Mackey!
it is a fentastic book
Thanks Praveen,

Hi,
My passion has been designing cars for more than 20 years, I am totally an amateur, but still trying to learn and never give up drawing. I sometimes realize, my self already used many ideas on my sketches, such as lines, a feature to the car etc. way before I see them on the cars on roads or on the concepts. In this regards I see myself as a car designer, a successfull car designer:) I could’t get a chance to get an education on designing cars, but I keep learning. I keep sketching… And totally I appreciate you share your knowledge. Thank you.

I really want to learn how to improve my perspective drawings, is there any other videos on this website, that you would recommend me to watch?
Is there a Design community on this website, that I could join/ be apart of??
P.S.
You said, that I would receive the book in a minute, but it has been 9 minutes and I still haven’t received it yet?
hi, I’m Miguel Bernardes and I’m from Portugal.
I am a product designer, and I feel that my weak point in the presentations was not knowing how to draw products.
I know that this type of sketch will greatly increase my presentations and my confidence in making product sketch.
Hi Miguel,
I agree, being able to draw the products you have in mind will drastically make a difference in your presentation.
Don’t worry, sketching is all about a series of simple techniques.
Let me share with you a tutorial about drawing a product using blocks: https://www.thedesignsketchbook.com/how-to-draw-plug-easy/
You will be ready to start it after going through the Designer Starter Kit giving you the basics of perspective. 🙂
Hope it helps!
Cheers,
Chou-Tac
I am from Australia
Want to go into sketching various styles in “Parramatta Eels sketches” professionally. As a niche business I can incorporate my love of my NRL Rugby League team as a passionate supporter since 8.
Have always loved drawing from old enough … I was always a good drawer through school. It always has come naturally to me, as other creative enjoyments in my life. Ready to take it to the next level!
Thank you for wanting help me grow!
hi just learning
Greetings from Arizona, USA! I’ve always loved drawing and have a dream of being a concept artist, but lost my steam some time ago, and want to get back into it, from the ground up! And I know that designers have a strong sense of drawing fundamentals like form, connectivity, structure, etc. Looking forward to the book and seeing how it helps me get my groove back with confidence!
Hey Kym,
You are totally right, for a concept artist, the key is a good understanding and practice of fundamentals.
Soon, they will become intuitive, so your brain will fully focus on creativity!! That’s the crazy fun part where your imagination will have no limit.
I really love sketching mostly with boxes like a product designer. It really inspires me to sketch when I see an expert doing sketches.
I love drawing and because I love drawing I want to improve on my drawing.

Hi, I’m Zeinab, from Egypt and I’m studying industrial design
Welcome on board Zeinab 🙂
Hi, I’m a professional industrial designer with many successful products in the marketplace. I have been sketching very small, roughly and quickly just to remember my ideas (so it doesn’t look very nice), then develop it directly in 3D modeling softwares. Now I need to add some beautiful sketches in my portfolio.
I see what you mean, on top of adding your sketches in your portfolio, it will also help you convey better your ideas to clients before going to 3D step 🙂
I love napkin sketches. They can be more or less elaborate.
