Thanks so much! Best of luck with it. I'll be making update videos as I work through the modules and use different resources so let me know how you get on!

Thank you! glad you found it helpful!

Glad it's been helpful!

Thank you so much! Glad you've found it helpful. I will be doing a follow up to this video eventually as I'm working thought my study plan slowly and finding it's really working for me having it in organised chucks! Good luck with yours let me know how you get on!

Thank you! Glad your enjoying the videos!

Aww thanks so much. I was the same when trying to figure out how to actually do some focused learning on improving my art skills! I'm actually going to be doing a longer video on this one as I've been working through my own curriculum and refined it/learnt from doing it!. It will be more in depth but I'm going to try to keep it simple and actually doable so other people can do the same if they want to with their own goals/learning. 🩷

Glad you found it helpful!

So glad it was helpful!

Thanks for watching and commenting. Really glad you enjoyed them 🩵💛🧡

Glad to was helpful 🥰

Glad you found it helpful 😊

Thanks for the kind comment. It's really hard knowing how much personality to put into videos! Glad you found the vid helpful and hope it gave you some idea on how to pick what your classes should be! Pomodoro method sounds really handy! Honestly my life naturally is set up to be compatible with the pomodoro method as I basically have my sons nap time (1.5hrs) and ~2hrs before bed to focus on creativity! So would very well have a short break in-between two chunks of 'study".

Also there is nothing pathetic about Harry Potter or LOTR. They are my go to chill out films. Same with the hobbit! Or even the jurassic parks for me as well if I'm feeling old school. Easy watching!

Hi lovely, so glad you found it helpful! I didn't set myself a Time for each unit as I think if you don't 'achieve it' in the time frame it can make you feel demotivated. I think the most important thing is just to stick to working though each of your topics step by step in that unit. As long as your moving forward, learning and practicing the time isn't so important. If you really want a time frame it will depend on how much time you have to dedicate to it. Very personal to you. I personally only have 2 hours in the evening or naptimes for my kids so it might take me 2 months to do something you might have time to do in 2 weeks. Some of your topics will also take longer and be more detailed etc, for example my unit one the drawabox lessons took me 2 months whereas the life drawing challenge is only 10 days that I can spread over probably 3 weeks. So honestly setting yourself a timeframe might be not be helpful. Id set long term time frames instead. For example ive said id like to do my first 3 units within 2 years (but ill probably do it in 1 year!) So im making sure i have a realistic time frame that wont leave me feeling dissapointed if i dont meet it. Hope that helps 🩷 let me know how you get on 😊

@@louisecreatesart WOW! That’s just so amazing. You’ve really taught me how to stay disciplined and have inspired me in so many ways!! I’m so happy that you took your precious time to answer my question in such a detailed way. I’m surely going to follow what you explained and will make sure to not time bound my goals. (And if I do, I’ll come and read your response again😁) Thank you so very much for the guidance. 🤍

Glad you found it helpful!

Thanks for subscribing 🥰

Thanks lovely. Glad it was helpful 💚

Best of luck! Glad you found the video helpful 😄 I love fantasy landscapes!

Glad you found it helpful 😊

Drawing everyday is amazing, well done! I try to every day but have some gaps occasionally due to work commitments and the sheer exhaustion of having a toddler and being 31 weeks pregnant! 🙃. Thank you for the well wishes! All going smoothly so far 💛

I've invested in some charcoal, carbon pencils and pastels to focus on anatomy and figure drawing as well. Always good with some messy fun while learning! So pleased you found to video useful ❤️ 💙 💜

Thank you! I find it so handy having it up and visible where I can see it as a prompt on what I'm focusing on now and next. It's a bit too easy for me to 'forget' about if its just written down somewhere or on my phone etc.

Thanks so much 🥰

Birds and flowers are beautiful so I can understand why you enjoy them 😊!

Sounds like a really fun mix of mediums!

Glad it was helpful!

Oh brilliant, I'm working through drawabox now ☺️

Glad you found it helpful 😊

It's a good idea to have a look through books on your medium or covering the fundamentals and see what topics are covered. I mostly go from there!

Glad you found it helpful! I do one unit at a time but if your finding you don't want to do part of it and it's blocking your progress just move that part down to the next unit. Feel free to move stuff around if you feel like it. It's a tool for you, you make the rules, see what works for you. I've moved stuff between units a few times to keep myself motivated and progressing.

Love life drawing youtube channel is a great resource, they also have a short challenge which is useful. I like the loomis books on drawing the figure 'figure drawing for all its worth' Honestly the best thing for me has been going to weekly life drawing sessions (2 hour sessions) which has really made me stick to it and practice even at times when I didnt feel motivated.

Very skilled artist. Really like the way he distorts perspective in some of his works. I like the dark grittyness of alot of his work and its incredibly detailed. 👌

sketchfab.com/scottbreton/models A guy called Scott breton made them, in varying forms of simplicity. Brilliant resource!

I think I do more than 50% as just for fun and for me most of the time! Some of it is still practice type stuff but I'm not focused on trying to improve anything specific if that makes sense. I think the 50/50 is important! By doing your own stuff your still putting what you've learnt into practice but just in a low pressure way. Keeps it fun as well!

😅not a fan i presume? What do you prefer?

Oh really! Well you will have to let me know how you get on as our paths are so similar 😀 I'm almost at the end of lesson one for drawbox. Glad your enjoying the videos! I'm enjoying making them and they are hopefully going to keep my accountable to reaching my art goals as a little side benefit!
