I have lots of idea in my mind but putting it on paper is difficult yet necessay. I think this blog should help me get out of this hard time.
P.S your work is awesome!
Having ideas is already a big step! You are already doing well !
Decided to come here and see if I could find a different way to look at sketching. I have always been able to draw but want to up my sketching skills and get faster at producing ideas.
Awesome ! 🙂
Thank you. i’ve always wanted to start sketching but never had the motivation. Your blog motivates me to pick up my pen 🙂
Keep going Sharmila ! :))
This is totally awesome, thanks a lot for providing us this awesome stuff… Really glad I found this site. Man, you did a great job…. Btw Name is Helmy, wannabee graphic designer from Indonesia. Nice to meet you
And I really really need this learning how to sketch cuz I’m a complete zero for drawing….
Hey Helsmkiiz,
I am glad you find the blog helpful.
Everybody start from zero. The most important thing is the first step. Most never do that one. 🙂
The blog or my online course are for people who are true beginners. If the design sketching course is something that may interest you, I can update you on when I will reopen again.
See you!
Hi my name is Mauricio, but i prefer Max, I from Chicago and I attend Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design. My first art class was when i started high school. I took a drawing class and ever since then I’ve been obsessed with minuet details of lines. It’s hard to pinpoint or even explain where my passion for drawing and design comes from but I think like any other language, sketching is important because it is another way to express and experience the world within and surrounding us. Too me sketching is the most powerful way to visually express ones self.
Hello Max,
I totally agree, sketching is so cool when you can drop what you have in mind on paper! That’s a great feel! I don’t say it’s easy but but so worth working at getting better everyday.

My name is Uyen , i’m from Vietnam and i’m 19 years old . I realized my dream of becoming an artist just about 4 months before i graduated from highschool . Now i’m really serious about becoming one . I’m trying to draw everyday and learn from many artists online . I’m so glad to be able to come across your site , so many great tutorials and tips . Thank you very much and keep up the good work.
I couldn’t get into an art school due to lack of time preparing for the entrance exam . Now i’m in Japan, as i gradually improve on my japanese , i also sketch and draw everyday , hoping to be able to get into an art university in Japan. Although i started late, i won’t give up on my dream.
Hello Uyen,
Amazing you are in Japan. That’s my favourite country. There is so much inspiration to take from. All the best, and yes pursue your dream to make them reality!
Cheers,
Chou-Tac
Hi, I’m Philippe from France.
Always been interested in design.
Unable to draw myself I still have the idea I could be able to put a idea in drawing one day…
I do some restauration on mopeds and motorcycles and would like to be able to draw some new designs leading to bike customization.
Cheers,
Philippe
Salut Philippe,
Ha ouai pas mal. Ha il y a une chaine sur Instagram qui cartonne. Il fait des sketchs de motos de fou. Si jamais je la retrouve, je te l’enverrais. Tu vas adorer! En tout cas moi j’adore leur style.
My name is Theo and I’m from the UK. I teach Art and Design in Secondary School and I’m always looking for new ways to inspire my pupils through sketching.
Awesome Theo!
Anytime, if there is anything I can help you more, let me know. 🙂
Thanks!
Hi! I’m MehilesH. I study Design and Technology at school and want to learn how to sketch quickly.
Hey there, my name is Lukas and want to apply for the university for industrial design next year. It is really hard to get in there, and that is why i want to improve my sketching a bit. I am fine with pens, but my sketching on the computer or with markers needs some work.
Awesome Lukas, feel free to browse in the blog. There is some articles about portfolios and school enrolment.

I work for a 2D animation studio in England. New drawing techniques and takes on things are always good to take a look at. Thanks!
Fully agree with you. Always great to discover new skills.
Hey, if you are keen, I would be glad if you would accept to share your experience on the blog through an interview ? 🙂
Hi! I’m industrial designer from Mexico, I would like to improve my sketching because I love making design and as we know the first steps are the sketches so, why dont pretend to do art since the beginning? Thank you for all.
Yeah, earlier you know how to sketch, earlier you can capitalize on it. 🙂
That reminds me the article I have just published about the relationship between time of practice and skills.

Hi, I’m Echo, a student of Computer Engineering from Indonesia. I really love to see what others can do with their own hands to make many beautiful artworks, mainly sketch and painting. I have always dreamed of becoming like them, but I don’t know how to start, so I’m very thankful to you for your book, I found it useful for me to start my journey.
I remember I had the exact same feeling when I started. It’s a feeling I believe follow all our life. We always look for people to admire whatever our level. So we keep improving!
Hello.
I`m a student of industrial design and I just love to create. But bad sketches were, and sometimes, still are holding me back and make me feel insecure about my drawing. So thank you for your guidance and all the best to you 🙂
Enjoy Matej. Let me know how your journey going.

Hey Chou-Tac, this is Ming here from Taiwan. I’m a sales at present who’s always passionate with design and photography art and would like to make my turn to step in the creative fields. I’ve been planning to further my study at art school but feel struggling sometimes for finding myself a right start to develop my portfolios. Then I found your blog, which excites me a lot and inspires me to enjoy drawing and find myself a good start here. I’m looking forward to learning more knowledge here in this blog from you! Thank you for sharing these tips with us beginners.
Glad that the blog helps you start your design sketching journey Ming Chang :).
Thank you! I can use this to help teach my friends and family! I’m an industrial designer in Utah, USA.
There is nothing better than learning in family! 😀
hi, im from the philippines. ever since i was young, i have used drawing as a way to vent out and express my emotions whether it may be negative or positive emotions. at the beginning, it was just a hobby and it didn’t matter that much to me if my drawings are bad as long as the message was present at the drawing but now, i want to improve so that i won’t be shy on showing others my drawings so that they could also feel the emotion from just seeing the drawing. that is why learning to sketch is very important to me.
Yes, that’s a very interesting approach to express emotion in your drawings. People will be receptive to it as well.
Hi, I’m from Taiwan, feel interested in drawing, and I prepare to pursue my master degree in interaction design in the near future. Drawing is also a crucial matter in that field to express my ideas. Then, I see your video, and I think it is helpful.
Really expect to see your books.
Thank you very much!
My pleasure Kai Ying!
Hi, my name is Philipp, i come from Italy and study urban planning in Vienna. I always liked to draw and i think hand drawing is a really cool technique also to make visuals, but also just a nice hobby. I hope to improve with your guides and i think its a really nice idea with your website.
ciao Philipp
Enjoy Philipp 🙂 I agree hand drawing is really cool too!
Hey Man
I’m a industrial diver and technician from South Africa. Sketching has always been a method of conveying ideas for when we build things. I also use it for a bit of therapy. Hope one day to make a career out of it. Thank for all your time and dedication you put into this
Hello Dalmain,
Do you mean using as a therapy that you use sketching for relaxing ? 🙂
See you.
Chou-Tac
