Description
In this drawing for beginners class, I will walk you through the skills needed to get started with sketching.
What You Will Learn:
We will begin by warming up and exploring how the way we hold our pencil affects how we draw
Next we will practice drawing straight and curved lines – the foundations of every drawing – and I’ll show you some techniques to help you achieve better results with those
Then we’ll use our straight and curved line drills as we practice drawing some commonly used shapes, which act as building blocks when we come to drawing from a reference
We’ll discuss the holy grail of drawing – observation – and explore why it can be difficult for us to draw what is actually in front of us, and I’ll show you some strategies to help you observe better and more objectively
Next, we will explore subject matter, and we’ll look at some good and bad examples, with tips to help you choose subjects that will give you the best chance of creating successful drawings
Finally, we’ll put all the theory and practice together by going through the step-by-step process of creating a sketch from start to finish
What You Will Need:
The materials for this class couldn’t be simpler:
A Pencil
A few sheets of paper
An eraser
When we’re starting out learning to draw, the overwhelm can often stop us in our tracks before we’ve even got started. The aim of this class is to give you a guide you can use to help you cut through the overwhelm and get started drawing any subject, within the class and beyond!
