Now for a much deserved update on the 3rd year animation students in my life drawing class!

I'm a strong believer in the idea that everyone has the ability to become great. With hard work and dedication, just about EVERY student has improved noticeably in the past 8 weeks!

My method is to teach them a new way of fundamental thinking and analyzing every week. They practice it until they can do it too. That's it... it's as easy as that to improve. Continue to learn new things in new ways... new ways of thinking. This gives yourself options on how to approach the things you observe. That's just what I think anyways... either way, it working!

Here's just some of the students that have really been stepping it up!

Letti Lo - Beautiful gesture! Great design as well


Lisa Tao - 5 minute pose. Great job Lisa!


Vivian Lai - excellent job!


I don't remember who did this. No name on it either. It's a great drawing though! Inspired by a pose the model did.


This week we started learning about caricatures. Here's a great one from Alex Haddock!
