(I'm a professional dev/devops but have been drawing a long time) Lynda Barry's resources are excellent! Her "What It Is" clearly communicates the magic and identity of making marks on the the page. She shows her adoration of marks by NOT-trained artists, they're more "alive", so many of her exercises are UN-learning things from more traditional "artist" pathways. I'm really enjoying her "Syllabus" book, it's a startling refreshing way to learn, including making marks / "drawing". https://www.instagram.com/thenearsightedmonkey/ https://www.instagram.com/thenearsightedmonkey/ https://www.amazon.com/Syllabus-Accidental-Professor-Lynda-Barry/dp/1770461612 https://www.amazon.com/Syllabus-Accidental-Professor-Lynda-B... https://www.amazon.com/What-Lynda-Barry/dp/1897299354 https://www.amazon.com/What-Lynda-Barry/dp/1897299354
