Art Alchemy : Authentic Conversations on Art and Cultivating a Creative Mind

I Can't Draw! (011)


Listen Later

Hi everyone! In this episode of Art Alchemy,

we, Debs and Ruth, are excited to talk to you about a common phrase we often
hear: 'I can't draw.'

We dive into why people feel this way and

debunk the myth that drawing is just a natural talent. We believe anyone can
learn to draw with practice and patience.

Join us as we share various fun exercises like

continuous line drawing, blind drawing, and quick sketching that can help you
get started. We'll also discuss the importance of observational skills and the
benefits of drawing socially.

Plus, Ruth has a free mini-course called 'I

can't draw' with video tutorials and extra tips to help you on your artistic
journey. Let's get drawing together!
