Art Alchemy : Authentic Conversations on Art and Cultivating a Creative Mind
Ruth Egon and Debbie Chatfield
24 episodes
3 days ago
Welcome to Art Alchemy, authentic conversations on art and cultivating a creative mind. We, Ruth Egon and Debbie Chatfield, are both UK based nature inspired contemporary artists. Why is it that one piece of art is loved by one person but another simply doesn't understand it. We connect to art in a similar way to how we connect to people, some we understand, others not so much. Art is an expression of who we are so maybe that is why? Examples of topics include... 'Is Talent a Myth?', 'Why use a Sketchbook?', 'Carving Out Time', 'The Artistic Process' and 'Is Art Good for Your Health?'

I Can't Draw! (011)

Hi everyone! In this episode of Art Alchemy, we, Debs and Ruth, are excited to talk to you about a common phrase we often hear: 'I can't draw.'

We dive into why people feel this way and debunk the myth that drawing is just a natural talent. We believe anyone can learn to draw with practice and patience.

Join us as we share various fun exercises like continuous line drawing, blind drawing, and quick sketching that can help you get started. We'll also discuss the importance of observational skills and the benefits of drawing socially.

Plus, Ruth has a free mini-course called 'I can't draw' with video tutorials and extra tips to help you on your artistic journey. Let's get drawing together!
