Basic Sketching Tips
- Start drawing simple subjects: fill a page with basic shapes and try to replicate each one with precision. Focus on drawing the line lengths and angles accurately.
- Gradually move on to drawing more complex subjects: When you feel comfortable, challenge yourself by drawing more detailed subjects.
Teaching Yourself to Sketch
- Start with Basic Shapes: Fill a page with basic shapes and replicate each one with precision. Focus on accuracy in line lengths and angles.
- Move on to More Complex Subjects: Challenge yourself by drawing detailed subjects, breaking down references before sketching.
- Study Your Reference: Observe the subject before starting the drawing for accuracy and realism.
- Invest in Quality Supplies: Buy good paper and pencils. Adjust your grip on the pencil for a relaxed hand. Use free-flowing lines and develop observational skills through references.
