This is perfect for adult beginners who have lost touch with their intuitive creativity.
Tools
Feel free to use whatever tools you have available to you! Any cheap pen or pencil will work for this exercise. In the video I use Prismacolor Premier pencils because I like playing with color but it's not necessary at all.
One of my favorite things about drawing is that it's a very accessible hobby because the tools are quite cheap. You can use any cheap paper and a $1 pen and still learn a ton. Many great artists actually prefer the cheaper tools.
Process
One of the main challenges for creatives is staying present with the process of drawing. This simple exercise can help us lean into the current moment so that we actually experience the depths of drawing.
It's a common mistake to focus too heavily on the outcome which can make drawing less enjoyable. Focus on the joy from the beginning of your artistic journey so you can fall deeply in love with it.
