How to Supercharge Your Seeing

What if the key to better sketching isn’t in your hand—but in your eyes and mind?

In Sketching Breakthroughs, you’ll learn to transform not just the way you draw, but the way you see. This class is designed to sharpen your visual perception, shift your mindset, and give you practical tools to move past overwhelm, analysis paralysis, and creative hesitation.

This is brand-new material—developed to offer a fresh, eye-opening approach that goes beyond traditional technique.

Through fun, guided exercises and discussion, you’ll train your eyes and mind to observe more deeply and sketch more freely. Think of it as a gym for your vision—designed to build stronger seeing habits, unlock creative flow, and reconnect you with the joy of drawing.

Whether you're a beginner seeking a new approach or an experienced artist ready for a breakthrough, this course will help you see your subjects—and your art—with fresh eyes.

For painters, these skills translate easily from sketchbook to easel.

You have three ways to learn and enjoy (see below). I hope you’ll join me. We’re going to have a lot of fun!

Thanks,

Richard
