Establishing proportions is a common mind numbing challenge artists struggle with when drawing from reference. When we draw we’re usually using a combination of eyeballing and measuring, but if you don’t know how to train in these two areas, you’ll continue to get whacky proportions. This lesson will help train your mind to improve your accuracy, show you tools you can use to help you judge proportions and the skill set to give yourself quick feedback so you can improve faster.
