Exercises:

0:15 - Marshall Vandruff : Looking at the world and turning them into the simplest
geometric volumes. Boxes, cylinders, spheres...
0:52 - Caleb Cleveland : Draw things that take you outside your comfort zone. Ex.
If you prefer figurative, draw landscapes. Landscapes into caricature. Try getting
more comfortable with new things. When things are getting easy, switch subjects.
Try mixing up media.
2:10 Chrissie Zullo : Life drawings. People on the street, how clothes fit on
people, etc... + gestures
2:50 Stephen Silver: Observation and drawing loosely. Filling up that sketchbook.
Blind sketching (10 secs at start, then start looking and continue drawing).
3:37 Sanford Greene: Gesture drawing. Draw whatever. Hat, Cup, etc... Loose, free,
and thoughtless drawing. Capture the idea of the subject with your gesture.
4:58 Ross Tran: Draw from life. Ex, draw a tree... try to replicate the tree in
scenario where it is in space.
5:20 Bobby Chiu (Hello Schoolism!): Draw from life and draw from an artist that has
the same interpretation of the subject. Then make your own interpretation.
5:43 James Douglas: Drawing straight lines... Take an imaginary cube, rotate it
around (in your drawings) freehand. (Meaning you draw the same box from many
different imagined angles). Then do the same exercise and draw stuff over it. This
exercise is taken from a Taiwanese artist.
6:27 Ron Lemen: Do those repeated exercises like drawing circles all day, draw
straight lines from thick to thin, thin to thick, draw over those lines again. Draw
c curves and s-shaped curves with the same thin to thick, thick to thin exercises.
This is used to practice dexterity.
7:53 Marcelo Matere: Best ones: Life drawings. Specific things like structure, how
to build the figure and make it 3-Dimensional. Use solids to try the figure.
8:25 Eliza Ivanova : Gesture drawing. Variable times from 30 secs, 1 min, 3, 5, 15
min. Use whatever materials. Maybe switch them up if you are too used to one
medium.
9:18 Peter Han : Perspective. Knowing how to draw boxes in space. 1 point, 2 point,
3- point. Freehand drawing a box without construction and intuitively rotating it
in space.
10:05 Mike Hayes : Drawing from Life. Be aware of what you are doing and why. Think
about what your doing and if you are improving at it. What skills are you working
on? Have a specific goal and evaluate it every month.
11:23 Howard Shum: Gesture drawing everyday.Draw from Photos, and real life when
you can.
11:50 Patrick Ballesteros: Drawing cubes and boxes out of your imagination. It's
amazing to be able to draw a box in space without having to rely on perspective
lines.
12:23 Victor Olazaba: Thumbnail sketches. Sketch everyday. Do quick ones. He does a
lot from imagination.
13:02 Hai-na-nu Saulque: Need to be able to draw pencil to paper. Don't learn
digital first. It's good to learn how to draw traditionally, and not use UNDO.
Drawing pen to paper prevents you from undoing things. There is natural and curve
and flow to hands with traditional media. (Wait, but what about drawing tablets
that "flow with the hands"?).

In Summary:
Draw from observation. Do loose drawing. Do gestures. Do life Drawings. Draw things
from life using simple geometric shapes. Learn how to rotate a box in space
freehand. Do thumbnail sketches (for dynamic idea capturing?). Draw traditionally
to improve better. Practice your line work control.?
