The videos on this channel will be useful for other improving artists. They document my progress and thoughts as I work though the exercises from a variety of training material. If something works for me, it should work for you, and if something doesn’t work, you can learn from my mistakes.

It is a companion to my blog Learning to Draw: Learning to See (https://learningtodrawlearningtosee.blogspot.com). There are posts about the exercises I have completed since 2011.

Learning to draw and paint from books and DVDs can be difficult because there are no other class members. In school we learn from our fellow pupils. We discuss our problems and challenges. Their homework provides another point of reference when we think about our progress. This channel is another member of the class.
