All lessons were very useful in learning to draw objects free hand with knowledge imparted on angle sighting and triangulation methods.

amazing course, explains and shows clearly and exactly what you need to understand, in a - not too long not too short way.

great instructor... would like him to demonstrate using the clock to help find angles.

This class was very easy to follow and incorporate into my artwork. I was up doing Brent's Figure Drawing course, and had to hightail it back here to give this course a proper look when I got stuck there.
Thanks so much, Brent!

Very good but proportional measuring with pencil remains difficult as I find it very hard to tell if something is a sixth or eigth or third, or quarter bigger or smaller as the core unit selected. Triangulation was particularly useful and really repays practice. However, a bit challenge remains drawing straight lines between two points. Hopefully practice will pay off.

Ok, this was a tough one for me. But I knuckled it out, did the projects and practiced. Wouldnt call it fun.... but I have to say, it has definitely improved the accuracy of my drawing. My spirit is a bit bruised , but not broken. ?. Looking forward to Contours. I may go back and draw the scrub jay again to lift my spirits! Thanks Brent!

The details Brent Eviston teaches help me fill in the gaps in my drawing experience.

By Elie Feinberg on 5/10/2020

Easily understandable course of drawing appropriate proportion. The instructor ratchets up the complexity as the course proceeds. Highly recommend

By Andrew salvas on 8/26/2020

this and all of the courses in the art & science of Drawing series are outstanding courses that together form a near unreachable high bar in art courses

By Ania Lichszteld on 8/20/2020

I love Brent's courses, he explains stuff so well so suddenly all those complex things seem easy(although still can't make a straight line!). Love angle sighting, winner for me.

Muito bom para melhorar a percepo de construo da imagem complexa seguindo o passo a passo mais simples.
