I noticed that this site is slowing down. I haven't seen anything from Ann, Kali, Geneva, Mitch, Kelly, Becky and others lately.
Do you need new lessons?
One thing I gotta stress is that constant practice and applications of each lesson is what makes you good and functional.
Just doing a lesson once is not enough to make the concepts stick.
My goal is to get you out of sketchbook scribbling and into practical drawing with control.
If you're just stuck on a concept, ask a question.

Sorry about that. I guess the stuff started to get intimidating and I got discouraged. I'll get back to working on more lessons. I really appreciate what you've got here for us.
ReplyDeletewell tell me what's intimidating

Hi John
ReplyDeleteI'm still offline but hopefully back this week and will knuckle down again.
"My goal is to get you out of sketchbook scribbling and into practical drawing with control."
ReplyDeleteThis is something I very much want to be able to do. I can't say why it is that I've slowed down with my studies, as I'm not sure. I can relate to what Anne said about being intimidated. The lessons are great but I feel that the constant change from drawing rubber toys to doing full layouts to copying comics has too much randomness.
If I'm working on layouts then you post another subject to try, I feel that if I don't stop what I'm doing and jump onto the most recent post that I'm falling behind.
Also, Kaspar seems so damn hard to get down, for me at least. Seeing your storyboards to layouts helps seeing how you construct him as opposed to how I saw him. But still a very difficult character, for me, at this point. I know that if I learned construction better that Kaspar wouldn't be such a problem. My fault.
Anyway, just some of my "reasons" for slowing down. The curriculum site looks great. Definitely a A-B-C progression to learning is a better approach.
