Let’s talk about how to make drawing progress. What really moves the needle in your growth as an artist? Not just someday, but soon - why not in the rest of this year?
And inevitably – when you focus on these
3 things:
1. Consistent Practice
This. Is. A. Superpower.
It might sound like the most boring superpower ever - but in the long run, dangerous consistency often beats talent.
Not just for a week or 2. You can notice a
shift that quickly, but true transformation comes from showing up steadily, over
time:
Quiet, steady, not-glamorous-but-preposterously-effective consistency.
This is the #1 factor that makes your drawing progress inevitable.
(Isn’t it encouraging that it’s something within your control?)
How I Can Help:
To finish each week with a sense of accomplishment - and start the next with a clear, focused plan for your creative practice - you might love the Creative Momentum Planner.
It’s a journal and weekly planning system for artists who want to set meaningful, productive goals for the creative process… and see visible progress, week after week. Check it out here.
2. Quality Education
There aren’t many true shortcuts when it comes to learning how to draw – but quality education is one of them.
When learning a new skill, we don’t know
what we don’t know.
So we’re left trying to guess:
What should I learn first?
What order should I follow? (This really matters.)
Am I even practicing the right things… in the right way?
Instead of piecing together random YouTube videos
and hoping they connect, learning from a clear, proven system saves you months
(or years) of trial and error – and gives you peace of mind to move forward with
confidence.

3. Personalized Feedback & Support
You won’t always know how to fix what isn’t working in a drawing, especially while you're learning.
Having someone spot exactly what needs adjusting (and how to do it) supercharges your progress and makes the process much less frustrating.
And sometimes, you just need a pep talk – to be reminded that you’re doing better than you think, and that you’re closer than you realize.
