Ed: lots of people still comment on the camera angle. it’s a 4 year old clip you’ll notice, not only can I do nothing about this but you’ll see I’ve used others since, don’t need the ‘advice’ at this point thanks. the camera was mounted where I could at the time and have the best views without my hand getting in the way. if you’re using a tablet or phone try holding it upsidedown.

Why you should Practice Drawing

Why you should practice drawing

It seems obvious that you need to practice scales when you learn the piano, so you need to practice “scales” when you learn to draw. By practicing and repeating patterns and drawing strokes that you find difficult, you will build up muscle memory, just like riding a bike. If you can draw things without thinking about them, it leaves working memory free in your brain for the important parts of the drawing. Remember – Practice! Practice! Practice! With award winning illustrator, Shoo Rayner, who has illustrated well over 200 children’s books for famous authors and for his own stories.
