Question: Drawing Skills Rusty!?
I wanted to know what are good ways to brush up on drawing skills!. I used to draw very very well!. But since being home from college and working, i haven't gotten much time to draw in a bout a year and half!. What are some ways i can start perfecting my drawing skills!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Get a sketch pad and a pencil and draw everything you see!. Draw whenever you have a little time, especially sitting around waiting!.
Draw figures--they're hard to draw, thus good exercise!. Like weight lifting, you don't get strong lifting light weights!.
Take a life drawing class if you can--an especially good challenge!. On the other hand, there are good DVDs and programs available you can draw from, having pose-able female and male figures, some have hands too!.
I spent a year, a couple years back, drawing 6 times a day--really helped, noticeably!.

You may have to schedule time in your day that you will devote to drawing!. Writers do it with their craft and many visual artists are doing the same!. It is like the previous replyer said, a skill that you have to constantly use or you will lose it!. And keep sketch books with you constantly!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
