How can you miss the Beatles?

I haven't been doing much drawing. I started playing Monster Hunter:Iceborne with my Daughter. Once we got tired with Monster Hunter I got hooked on Helldivers II. It's a great game but I finally got sick of it. I've recently gotten into ChiFi and picked up a few pairs of IEM's so I want to keep listening to the 101 Albums That Changed Popular Music by Chris Smith. I was listening to The Freewheeling Bob Dylan by Bob Dylan and then I jumped to Bringing It All Back Home by Bob Dylan and have nearly finished it. I was looking to pick back up where I left off but I realized I completly skipped Please Please me by The Beatles. So Im listening to that, then I'll finish off Dylan and keep going. IEMs in use: 7Hz Salnotes Zero https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BX6JD72H

Busted out my old Drawabox Stuff

 I wanted to do some Drawabox practice, but I decided to try some sketching instead. I guess I'm ok with the 50% rule anyway. One idea I had was to listen to music while I practice. Right now, I'm following the book "101 Albums That Changed Popular Music" by Chris Smith. I listened to Elvis Presley's self-titled album and "Birth of the Cool" by Miles Davis.

Turning Over a New Leaf

 Hello and welcome to my newest blog. This blog will follow my journey as an artist. Step 1 learn to draw. A couple of years ago I started Drawabox. I got as far as Part One: Lesson 1 and then stopped completely. I can't remember why I stopped and that's sort of the reason for this blog. One of the sponsors for Drawabox is New Masters Academy. They have the 12-week Visual Development: Dynamic Sketching course as part of the membership. A version of this very course inspired Drawabox. The current plan is to take the 12-week course, work through Drawabox, and then go from there. Maybe I'll take Dynamic Sketching again after Drawabox, maybe I'll jump to something else.

This Music is for the Byrds

 The next album up is Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds. Pretty much not a fan of this album. The book says they are inspired by Dylan and the Beatles, but I'm not getting it. It sounds like a worse/weaker version of either. The book also says they were very influential in their own right. I guess I can hear it, but this is all too soft for me and sort of the first album I had a negative reaction to. Oh, thank goodness, back to the Beatles! Rubber Soul!
