I’ve been teaching realistic drawing for 13 years, and the single greatest challenge among students is “getting proportions right”. Why? Because correcting mistakes eats up a huge amount of time and energy. It can even kill the desire to keep drawing. I’ve been there.
There is a better way. Imagine placing every line in your drawing exactly in the right place. No erasing, no confusion or frustration. If I could only teach one drawing skill, it would be proportional accuracy. That’s what this guide is for.
This guide helps you improve your drawing skills with strategies for finding mistakes. The downloadable package includes a video lecture, a video demonstration, an e-book, and a cheat-sheet that you can print and put on your studio wall.
Video Lecture – A detailed description of five strategies for checking proportional accuracy.
Video Demonstration – A step-by-step walkthrough of building a drawing from observation.
Video Training Method – A systematic approach to effective practice.
Guide eBook – A 15-page handbook explaining the concepts covered in the lecture and demonstration.
Cheat-Sheet – A one-page summary of the most important insights. Designed to print and hang on your studio wall.

"Having witnessed Dorian at work, I can vouch for the efficiency of his methods. Not only does his passion for visual accuracy inform beautiful works of art, but his finesse in observation extends into an eye for detail in every area of his life, seeking truth and beauty in all facets of the world around him. Dorian is a ‘seer’ of remarkable dedication and authenticity."
