REMEMBER: The exact supplies themselves don’t matter,
it is you that makes the magic!

Fox Studies

These tutorials come from the very first class I ever made, called Drawn to Faery, in 2019. This class is no longer available (it was hosted by another artist who has since closed her site), but I think some of the lessons are very suitable for our work here together. And delightfully, the entire class took place in a sketchbook, the very same sort I use now :)

Although my skills have grown a lot since then, and my focus is now completely on wildlife, I am still so proud of this first educational offering! I loved rewatching these lessons and seeing how the thoughts I now have deep roots into were starting to come to life then.

While I would not speed up such large amounts of tutorials now, I think these still give you all that is necessary to follow along with these lessons, or use them as a basis for your own exploration.

(Note that the reference images come from another royalty free site, Unsplash, which I used exclusively then. Another great site to curate reference images for yourself though!)

Enjoy!
