Drawing · by Angel Reyes · 2026-10-09

I finally understand why Drawing people care about practice in Manila

A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat

I started this because my Monday morning felt a little stuck, and illustration seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. illustration got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

Agree completely. The simple version is underrated. The São Paulo example makes it feel concrete.
