Many find drawing challenging. It is a useful skill to acquire. As always there are many different drawing techniques and eventually one should find their own way of doing things. What might work for one, may not work for another. Also, there is the question of style. What I find appealing is a "painterly" quality both in oil paintings and in pencil drawings. Therefore, I prefer a distinct quality indicating brush or pencil strokes that define texture and not extreme photorealism.
In this
video I share with you one method of drawing that I find to be simple and effective. If you would like to practice some of the pencil strokes, they are posted under the above tab "Paint Along"!
Start with simple objects with flat surfaces.
Next, you may use your drawing as your "reference" photo to draw with pen and complete a watercolor study as well.
I hope my video and this post helped you along your drawing journey.
Happy drawing! :)
