Kurt Aspland is a graduate of Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California and has been drawing, painting and teaching for well over 25 years. Currently he teaches at Drexel University in Philadelphia and the Pennsylvania School of Art and Design.
It has been his observation over the years that most artist struggle with drawing on a daily basis. There are so many art classes, books and workshops out there that seem to address everything except the most important thing of all; that is the starting and maintaining a daily habit of drawing. This is the foundation for The 28 Day Drawing Class.

It has been my observation over the years that most artist struggle with drawing on a daily basis. There are so many art classes, books and workshops out there that seem to address everything except the most important thing of all; that is implementing a daily habit of drawing. That is the foundation for The 28 Day Drawing Class.  If I could somehow get my students to draw everyday for four weeks, odds would be in their favor that a habit would form.

The 28 Day Figure Drawing Day Class, like all of my classes is structured in such a way that if you commit 15 minutes everyday, you will have put together in your sketchbook a wonderful resource filled with tips, tricks and techniques for you to reference when needed. Also it is so much better than buying a book, because in the process practice you will be putting these things to memory. If you would like more information please check out this link: The 28 Day Drawing Class.


This is part of my everyday habit of drawing. Today is cookie the dog.

20 Tips to Improve Your Drawing:

Tip #3: Draw everyday – Draw everyday – Quantity over Quality. Do not get hung up on what something looks like, just move on to the next drawing. Things are happening in your mind that you are not even aware of.

20 Tips to Improve Your Drawing:

Tip #2: Draw everyday – Have the right supplies, keep it cheep and simple. I use a $5 spiral bound sketchbook (9x12 Strathmore Sketch pad) and a pack of $2 Crayola color pencils. I have used a lot of different fine art pencils and in the end I have found Crayola is the best.
