...particularly with drawing.

Let's look at how you define failure with drawing.

Have you failed if you do not draw what you have conceived in your head before you began the drawing?
In this class, you should be drawing what you see, NOT what you think something should look like if you closed your eyes and imagined it..

Have you failed if you do not draw what you see in front of you?
How much do you really see? Are you focused on details or the overall picture?

Have you failed if you make mistakes?
If you don't make mistakes, then how are you going to learn anything other than what you already know?
