A drawing dojo

Each month is a full cycle: four modules, one path. You start free, you arrive solid. You sculpt light. A method rooted in gesture, form, body, and vision.

It’s not a circle — it’s a spiral. You return, but higher.

The Path:

Each month:

1 week = 1 module

4 modules = 1 transformation

1.⁠ ⁠Neurolinguistics

Unlock the hand, shift the gaze.

Break the mental filter. Train the gesture, not the fear.

With quick, disruptive exercises, you learn to truly see.

Gesture drawings, negative space, contours, chiaroscuro: here, you start to breathe.

2.⁠ ⁠Geometry

The invisible structure of reality.

See blocks where you once saw chaos.

Cubes, spheres, axes, and cross-sections help you sculpt the figure like Michelangelo.

Form gains substance, space becomes believable.

3.⁠ ⁠Anatomy

From generic body to living figure.

Learn to recognize — not copy.

Every curve has a source, every form a logic.

Deconstruct, articulate, understand.

Like skinning a statue to see its soul.

4.⁠ ⁠Hatching

Sculpting with line, thinking in 3D.

Hatching doesn’t decorate — it builds.

With every line, you illuminate, model, and orient.

It’s the chisel of the masters; it’s your mind touching matter.

The Belt System

Just like in a dojo, you grow through levels:

Beginners: white, yellow, orange

Intermediate: orange, green, blue

Advanced: blue, brown, black

Each level ends with a kata: a final exercise that seals the leap.
