I can't draw!!

I hear this all the time when I'm teaching, and I hate hearing it because kids and adults alike are addicted to competency...we are raised to believe mistakes are bad and, well, not to do them. I tell my students it is the entire opposite when learning to draw (or anything in life really).
If you don't make mistakes how will you learn what works!? The key...draw...alot.
Draw from life, copy, trace..anything that will improve your hand-eye coordination...it will come, you just have to train you hand to put down on paper what your eye is seeing...easier said then done I know...
If you are having trouble and want to some advice reply to this blog and I'll get right back to you! Thanks for reading!
