Drawing cars is one of the few things that still brings me true joy in this thing called adulthood. Watching my son develop an interest in cars with his growing carcollection is another one of those things. You see, cars are awesome.

Hanging on to interests or hobbies that you enjoyed as a kid can help keep the hustle and bustle and grown-up responsibilities in check. Turn all those distractions off and just draw cars for a bit. Those bills aren’t going anywhere, trust me.

You can tell a lot about a car by looking at it from the side. Plus, you don’t have to worry about perspective from this angle.

When it comes to drawing cars, a lot of the lessons I learned along the way just kind of bury themselves in the back of my mind. Repetition is the key to feeling comfortable drawing these machines. For a lot of people, drawing cars is pretty difficult. For me, it’s drawing feet. I cannot draw feet. I should invest some time looking into online tutorials and practice. I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.
