    Hello sir I have a doubt so I have seen videos saying that our drawing should first start by simplifying the picture we are drawing into simple shapes take it as rectangle circle and 3d like cube sphere and so on and this then helps to make our proportions better but I have seen a person who says that we have to just start somewhat like scribbling with the outline and just wantedly scribbles the lines which he can see like in case of fingers he just starts scribbling it and says that doing this will help in exploring new ideas and help see which line shape fits the best instead of the tapered stroke and sir but you have alway said us to ur the tapered stroke while drawing like in your loose sketches and i haven't seen you start your drawing with simple shapes but seen you use the lines instead so then
    What according to you is the best approach:
    1. Simplifying pictures to shapes
    2.just trying to scribble the outline and exploring new ideas and doing this to help see which line shape fits the best
    3.Using tapered strokes and lines importantly lines and then shaping them properly into the desired figure?
    Sir THANK YOU IN ADVANCE this is gonna help me so much! AND I CAN'T EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE FOR ANSWERING MY PRECIOUS DOUBTS sir please please answer this one😢

    What is the drawing board you use?

      I don't really use a drawing board at this point. My main drawing surface is a drafting desk I bought off of Craigslist ages ago. (But not the tiny one you see later in this video. That's for kids)
