My name is Anmthony and I’m 57 years old. I want to learn to sketch geometric forms with their cast shadows. The problems I’m facing is learning how to draw irregular forms, like a sphere on top of a box and stuff like that.
Hi Anthony,
I do not have this specific tutorial; however, this one should help you draw some basic 3d forms and assemble them:

Harare in Zimbabwe, age 28. Being a cartoonist is a chilhood dream of mine. I just finished reading The last Lecture by Randy Pausch and am feeling motivated to achieve this dream. Some Roman guy from the first century beat me at saying it first but Luck is what you get when oppotunity meets preparedness.
Thats how I stumbled onto your blog, cause I was asking meta, how can I prepare myself to become a great cartoonist.
That is awesome Ruth.
I wrote an article that may help you. Maybe it was the one you found already :).

I desire to create my designs without any limitations with color or texture and Materials. I want to have full control over revenue income as well as pricing for the shoes I design as an independent.
(3) I started searching the internet using an AI Seach engine looking for shoe design soft wear and a link for your sketchbook popped up.
Bonus:(Problem) I’m looking to use Ai tools along with researching and using the best software to create the best type of cutting-edge Original Shoe designs. “The Sky’s the limit for what’s in my head.”

Hello! I’m 18 years old and currently a student.
I’m interested in sketching because I want to improve and refine my artistic skills.
I discovered this blog while searching online for drawing tips and tutorials.
At the moment, I struggle with proportions and shading in my sketches.
Through this blog, I hope to learn new techniques and practical exercises to enhance my drawing skills.
Hi Sandra,
for proportion, a great trick is to learn how to divide cubes using simple geometry rules.
