In this art tutorial video I use my extensive art teaching experience to show beginners how to start drawing by learning basic drawing techniques in a simple step by step approach.This Starting Drawing tutorial is the first in a series of art tutorials for absolute beginners to drawing. It covers 4 things that you need to know to start drawing with confidence. The video talks about getting into a positive frame of mind. It also covers paper, how to use your hand when holding a pencil and how to sharpen and use pencils creatively.
This easy drawing tutorial explains how to vary the line you draw by twisting your hand and applying different pressure. It shows you how to make the lines you draw look more creative. Hatching and cross hatching are also explained. In the next video I shall bring all these elements together to create our first drawing. Understanding the 4 things explained in the video will allow beginners to draw with confidence. The art tutorial will be useful for anyone starting to draw.
