Cheers and thanks for your amazing tutorials. I've learned more about loose sketching in the last week than I have in the last 40 years.

your way helps very much to be more spontaneous and less rigid trying to stick to rules.Etiana

I agree with Robert Scottie, well said 🙌🏻

Quiet cool. For my part I'd like to make over and over those people. The repetition help me to keep in confidence. And you do not over talk, so it's easier for the concentration.

Hi Scottie. Ian here . I love doing people. The problem for me is the heads. I stuggle with the shape and size and angle. The rest fo the body is fun. there is a lot of homework yet I get stuck on one figure because i get furstrated. Your Wisdom is needed. Thanks Ian

Hi Scottie. Thank you. Yes practice practice. I had to go over fundamental 2 and 3 just to get in my brain. I am pretty slow so I need to take each totorial in time. I like to aleast get comfortable with the line drawing. Everyone is so great. I hope to get there. That for the head tutorial Blessings Ian

Hi Scottie.. is there some way you could tell me how high the head is.. I love your videos so much and your teaching. It really works for me. I find it hard to judge the height in the video.. as I think I make mine unnecessarily too big..

Hi Scottie - you tutorials are really helpful and having a structured approach helps me start each drawing. I am just struggling to find the download all button below some of your posts - like the this one urban sketching basic figures and drawing a personal in profile. I'm not sure what's going on but wondered if you could helps out. others tutorials I am able to download like the tutorial how to sketch people loosely, I am hoping you can help! :)

Scratch my prior comment,. I guess you need to select each tutorial individually as just scrolling down doesn't seem to load the documents to download - this was at least my solution.
