Oh Cool! Thanks, Scottie :-D. I will stop avoiding people now :-D. I have done 2 & had little trouble with getting the proportions correct using your lesson about that. But Oh My Goodness getting their shapes right...pencil & eraser Much! Happy enough in the end. This Lesson is so Helpful with the basic shapes. Being a Visual I can picture that more now. Will still be printing off the piccie, drawing the Shapes on there & then putting onto paper. It's nearly School Holidays here in Qld so have started binge watching your other Lessons in preparation for lots of Play Time at The Art Desk :-D. Loving all your Lessons!

Scottie could you let me know all the colors listed in your pallet? Thanks!

Paul Judkins

Thanks for this tutorial. I always love your artwork, such great teaching too!

I never drew curves in people's bodies before; thank you! Making dots as to where things should go is a fantastic technique that I now use in drawing everything. I'm learning so much!

I took the plunge and I’m so glad I did. I had some trepidation going in for sure, but somehow you make it seem as practical as doing the buildings. This is great! I thank you so much for helping me move towards my goal!

Monica

Thank you so much, you're so good at explaining things and showing step by step. It helps so much! I was able to draw this and not so long ago I wouldn't have thought it was possible.

Thank you, I just finished this lesson. Mine did not come out as good as you, but I will look forward to growing.

Hi Scottie, after looking at my drawing alttle closer, I can see where my proportions are off. About what size should the head be in length and width, to get me started. I always go so much smaller than I should. Thank you, I feel like if I had a solid bounce off point in the head measurement that, that would help me. Thank again, Suzie

I’m trying to find the video where you show how to draw a small, medium, and large figure. Thx
