Depends on the country and all sort of other factors like gender, age, etc.

Is just a regular notebook with dots instead of a grid.

Thank you your honor!

Here is the reference for day 18, it was really hard and I think I did a lousy job with it: https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/img/Williams-FW26-BMW-179906.html

Here is the reference I used for today: https://pin.it/31zufdV0u

In day 18 I used a picture from the Goodwood festival of speed. In both cases my goal was to replicate the image to the best of my ability, but I did not trace over them. I'm somehow flattered to be honest. Have a good one.

I'm very much learning as well but 2 pieces of advice that have been helpful:

1. When practicing from references or life, draw what you see. This is harder than you think, it takes lots of concentration to avoid drawing what your brain thinks is the real world.

2. Look at the negative space, that is, the space in between the forms of what you are drawing. This helps establish relationships between the elements of your drawings.

Some exercises that can help:

• Drawing without looking at the paper (helps switching your focus from the paper to what you are seeing, the results are strange and funny)

• Put your reference upside down (helps with drawing what you see instead of your mental model because the brain is not use to seeing the objects upside down)

• Take a house plant and draw it using only negative space. Your goal is to not draw the plant but what is not the plant.

Have fun!

I'm glad it reads, thanks for the nice comment!

That is really impressive, was her face sore after?

I tried but had to resort to a reference after struggling with the mirror

It is going to be fun, was missing them the last 3 weeks!

I hope you do finish it, would love to see it!

This one is from a line of notebooks created by a friend here in Colombia but I got a similar one as merch from a company I used to work for in USA.
