Reader, do you ever have it where you draw one beautiful, perfect eye, but the second one always ends up weird? Or do your characters always end up looking stiff and unnatural? I used to struggle with this all. the. time. My go-to drawing workflow always started with the eyes, then the rest of the face, then the body, one limb at a time. I thought this was THE way to draw people and faces, so I clung to it for years. Flipping through my old sketchbooks, I see it everywhere -- half-done faces and out of whack proportions. Awkward arms and unbalanced poses. My old art makes me cringe for both the untethered teenage angst and the consistent foundational mistakes that limited my drawing for a decade. Now, I have a new drawing workflow that makes a world of difference. I've figured out how to consistently get believable proportions and interesting, dynamic compositions by changing the way I approach my drawings. And I want to share that technique with you. Next week, I'm hosting a live Foxsy class where I'll share the secret to creating art that moves and breathes on the page. This is a members-only class, but this is such an important topic that I wanted to open it up to you by offering a Class Pass for just this one event. Heads up, there are only 100 passes available for this class. Of course, you could always take this chance to grab yourself a Foxsy membership and gurantee your seat for this class and every other. Just sayin. I haven't shared a ton of drawing-specific tutorials yet, which means that this is a great opportunity to get a peek into my long-secret sketching methods (and why I do it this way). If you want to learn more about this dynamic drawing method and fix the mistakes that are holding your art back, just head here and register for the live class. It's on Thursday, June 28th at 2pm CST -- mark your calendar! I'm really excited about this class, Reader. This method truly has opened up the throttle on my drawing skills and I want you to experience the feeling firsthand. Don't miss this class if you want to become a better artist. |

I hope you're enjoying a warm and cozy holiday break, Reader! This time of year, I always have my sketchbook within reach. I find that drawing or lettering quietly is a great way to stay involved with family conversations while keeping my hands busy. Sometimes, when I really need to recharge my social battery, I'll pop on a quick video or tutorial to give my mind something to gnaw on. Then I'll reemerge into the family dynamic feeling more refreshed. Whether you're looking for a way to relax...
