I've been drawing ever since I can remember and I would often doodle in the margins of text books at school. After finally breaking free from school I went to Brighton Technical college for a year to study art and then a year at Northbrooke College. Nearly everything we were taught was to do with observational drawing ie: life drawing, still life drawing and some painting. After my two years at college I continued to attend weekend and evening life drawing classes for several years. However, I reached a point where I wanted to be able to draw figures from my imagination, like the classic Marvel and DC comic book artists. As this was the pre Internet period, it took me a while to find the right books in order to go about studying figure drawing from imagination. I finally landed on Burne Hogarth's Dynamic Anatomy. I studied this book for several years which indeed gave me the solid foundation for imaginative figure rendering I had always wanted. Later on, thanks to the wonders of the Internet, I discovered several online resources, mainly Proko, and then I was ready to go!
