Why Fewer Art Supplies Make You More Creative

Feeling overwhelmed by too many art supplies? Try limiting your tools! In today's Draw Tip Tuesday video, I use just three simple tools to show how constraints can spark creativity. With fewer choices, you focus on the essentials and make bolder creative decisions. See how it works, then apply what you learned by following the assignment!

Hands Drawing Hands

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!
Today, I'd like to talk about a special drawing ritual I follow whenever I start a new sketchbook: drawing my hands as they draw! This habit not only helps me break the curse of the blank page but also is a fun and challenging practice.

In this video, I'll walk you through my process, from starting by drawing the tip of the pen to capturing the details and proportions of my hands (wobbly and wonky!), even as they move and change positions.

Block Out A Bright Color First

Today, I'll show you how to kickstart drawing a scene,  without getting overwhelmed.

Start by boldly blocking out your main shape with a fun color. It's all about enjoying the process, so grab your chunky tools and let loose. I'm using a Pink Posca Marker as my base and a black Caran d'Ache Neocolor 1 wax crayon for that textured vibe, no need for precision here!

Let's dive in and have some creative fun!
