- What is your least favourite thing to draw in a portrait? Any particular things that make you want to pull your hair out?

Hair. And lips. And clothes.

Actually anything that isn't jaws or collarbones

Art question:

When you draw, how much do you use references vs using your imagination? Probably a dumb question haha, but I’ve heard arguments saying artists should use them all the time, and saying they should use them minimally. What would you suggest for a beginning artist from your experience?

I’ll send the suggestion over to the club manager!

I use references whenever I have trouble drawing something off the top of my head, particularly with shading objects or clothing. However I don’t think you should completely rely on them. For instance, copying a human pose reference mindlessly without really understanding the anatomy behind it will most likely result in weird mistakes and a less ‘flowy’, organic look. Imo references should serve as inspiraton and guidance, but not replace actual practice.

Finished! If you ever commission me and wonder what the heck's taking so long it's because I probably started over 8 times.
