Drawing in perspective (Image courtesy:  https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/571323902726615393/ ) Here is a seemingly simple task. Draw a chair. How hard could it be? A chair is not too difficult to draw, and if you are a beginner like me, you would probably want to follow some simple steps. You might want to draw this chair in perspective to make it look realistic. So, let's start with drawing some reference lines and vanishing points. This way, it may become a lot easier to get all the proportions of the chair right.

Progress is possible when you practice, and that statement is true for probably anything that we do. When you want to practice, do so using real world references as much as possible. Even household objects could turn out to be good references to use. Here is an example from Alice Jane Isak on Pinterest. The artist used a coffee mug as reference, and the outcome is great! Watching and observing Yes artists need practice, but practice what or how? Key to being a better artist is in the art of observation. Be patient with yourself. When you practice, it is not a commissioned art piece for someone. You are trying to hone your skills, and rushing in to it is not the way to go. Observing a coffee mug will allow you to see details you wouldn't otherwise notice. Things like where does the handle end, and the mug begin. When you start to watch
