My pen work is pretty simple and so going to start going through some of Matt’s pen work lessons, however I’m trying to draw small everyday to improve my hatching. Six small drawings everyday as to not overwhelm myself. Here’s the last few days… Any tips of what course to start with? ![IMG_20230418_090323501](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/0/06ee81f7242f2f79770fd7250f720f26c66758cd.jpeg) ![IMG_20230418_085102489](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/2/29c22e6bf9ef6688079df4811288425b9e95a4ad.jpeg) ![IMG_20230418_084904345](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/8/880c8cee824b7ce65943b20315ff1c9d43ebc510.jpeg) ![IMG_20230417_191043509](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/f/f65a466008aab6f7a84683e2da2cecc1c11b2f52.jpeg) ![IMG_20230417_153259489](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/6/6e9e704c197966816a3411a081a6e39b79169fe8.jpeg) ---

Very impressive work. I really like the idea of 6 small works daily, I’m going to give it a try. ---

It just means if you do nothing else then you have drawn for about 60mins each day. So in a week you will have 42 drawings… They aren’t big… About 6cm x 6cm. You can then when have time do bigger drawings, but this way we are always practicing and they can take 5 or 10mins ❤😀👍 ---
