If you are learning to draw, you get to decide which you want to be: fast or good? There are people who crank out drawings faster than I can instruct them on how to avoid difficulties. They end up with a stack of pictures that they hate in a few months time,.
There are people who spend an entire year on one drawing, and at the end of that year they have one picture they are quite proud of.
The end result is the same: both types of students have learned many new skills in drawing, both draw much better than when they began, and each is learning at his own speed.
So, if you have been drawing less than maybe 10 years, you get to decide if you want to be fast or good – me? I get to be both! (remember, I am talking about drawing here, not painting!)

There is so much love in your drawings. A genuine warmth, a real love. It shows in the light and it shows in the shadows – and also in the details you so painstakingly bring out.
