Learning to Sketch from Imagination

One of the most requested topics I get from artists is how they can learn to draw from imagination. Well, that’s exactly what we’re going to focus on in this demo. You’ll see me go through multiple stages during this drawing session. We’ll start by researching our subject (a chameleon), then do some warmup sketches from those references, and then finally finishing on a few sketches where we take the visual characteristics of our subject and simplify it using our imagination.
