Welcome to the Drawing Basics forum — a friendly, supportive space for students taking part in the Beginner’s Series.

Here, you can share your work from each lesson, connect with fellow learners, and discuss your progress as you build your drawing skills. Whether you're posting your first cup or your final still life, this is the place to celebrate milestones, ask questions, and learn from others on the same journey.

Joan checks in regularly to see how everyone’s getting on and offer encouragement — but this space is all about peer connection and creative growth.

You're invited to:

• Share your drawings from each exercise

• Comment kindly on other students’ work

• Ask questions or share tips

• Reflect on your progress as you go

No pressure, no perfection — just learning, sharing, and enjoying the process together.
