Art Fundamentals: Learning to Draw from the Ground Up

A community focused around the free, structured lessons available on drawabox.com, which focuses on developing students' spatial reasoning skills and other core fundamentals from the ground up. These are the skills that are important especially for drawing from your imagination, which many students and resources overlook. We also hold seasonal "Promptathon" events to encourage students to loosen up and draw for the sake of drawing, without getting caught up in how things turn out right now.
