Hey Mechelle,
Did you well receive the Designer starter kit?
Just in case because if you registered long ago and received once before, the system may have sent it to you again.

I am in my late sixties, I have always been interested in drawing, especially utilizing the perspective lines and drawing buildings. I currently driven to learn more and do more drawing, the only drawback is, (what you have discussed), is the time and scheduling a proper time to pursue my interests. I discovered your website, through random searching of the internet. Thank you so much for the needed tips and motivation.
Glad it helps David!
When you don’t have much time, I invite you to try drawing with thumbnails.
As you like perspective, you may draw some little rectangle like 4x5cm, draw a scenery in front of you. Just a quick rough. Only catch the essential: Perspective lines, main volumes and add in a little bit of characteristic details for the mood.
Example: If it is New York, add details about the skyscraper, the taxi signaletic, the stand of pizza or hot dog.
If it is Chinatown, the details would be about the Chinese characters.
Remember to add a few silhouettes of people to make it livelier. 🙂
Each thumbnail should take you no more than 5 minutes.
3 minute is a good time.
Hope it helps you to draw more often and having fun!

hi there, Im Evan. Im 16 years old and I live in Ontario Canada. I love the mathmatical aspect of art and im very creative. i want to get into architectural design, and I want to use this book to better my understanding of art and perspectives. i discovered this blog trying to figure out how to draw pillars from a 2 point perspective.
It is always great to start learning young.

hi there, I’am from south China, I’m 23, and I’m a freshman to product design. sketching skill cannot be jumped neither in my own design process nor for the purpose of finding a designer job in professional design firms. You have no idea how i discover this blog! The CHATGPT recommend this to me !
I just found i am always confused in scale and perspective when i ‘am drawing, i wonder how can i do with this!
Hey Irene,
Scale and perspective are all about proportion.
Here is a very quick TIP to get better at proportion using halving technique instead of incrementation.

Hello, I’m Andre and I live in Canada. I’m old enough to know and young enough to still learn. I want to see how other designers approach problems and I found this site by accident.
