  • Lesson 2 is here...Its a long one! 😅Take your time and split it up over a few days if you need to. Then practice! Spend a bit of time this week and next week just drawing 3D shapes until it becomes more natural. It's good to draw other things too, but give yourself some 'study time' focusing on sketching shapes. Good luck!
