Early March 2025, I followed the Sketch Week by Adebanji Alade, this started my drawing and sketching adventure. Before that I never been able to draw and I only could do stickperson. Just before starting the Sketch Week, I picked up the book You Can Draw in 30 Days: The Fun, Easy Way To Learn To Draw In One Month Or Less by Mark Kistler and did few lessons to at least learn to just draw basic shapes (spheres and cubes).

I bought a Faber Castell 9000 Jumbo graphite pencil, blending stumps, a white Posca acrylic marker pen, a mono zero eraser, and a sketchbook.
This is one of my first sketch following Adebanji Alade live video, this day we sketched the figure of this boxer.
