My Summer Challenge
Whenever I am around people who draw all the time the first thought that comes to mind is "I WANT TO DO THAT!" I feel like I can draw but I need to be better, I know there are defiantly a lot of things I have to work on and I know there even more that I need to learn. So while looking at some other people character drawings I asked them how do you get that good? The answer was lock yourself in a room with enough food to survive for a few days and do nothing but draw. Now I'm not going to go that extreme but I may do something similar. I designed a summer challenge to get better at drawing, my first challenge is called twenty days of hands. I found some drawing tutorials on stumbleupon and deviant art and have a tutorial a day in my sketch book for twenty pages. I'll do the same thing with feet, draw nothing but feet for twenty days. It doesn't have to be long I could just take an hour a day to learn. When I'm done with that I'll think of some more challenges but I plan on spending an hour a day this summer drawing something!

No matter what you draw, look for shapes that make up the subject you are drawing. So for hands you will see a series of different sized rectangles. Train your 'eye' to look for shapes and use them as your starting point. Hope that helps?
