Learn To Draw For Beginners
If this is a new
challenge for you, and you have little experience of portrait drawing then I
have put together a few short pencil drawing techniques exercises for you to
practice before you delve any further into your step by step drawing tutorial.
These exercises are very basic, easy to follow and can
be accomplished in a short period of time. No more than half hour.
But each exercise is
very important, and I suggest if you are serious about learning to draw
portraits you not only complete each one, but that you practice each one over
and over until you have found a way of drawing that you are comfortable with.
Find
your own drawing techniques
Every pencil artist
has their own way of doing things. We will all tell you contradicting methods
of doing certain techniques, and different rules to abide by and what you
should and shouldn’t be doing.
The truth is though, there
are no rules. Just our own experiences of good practice. What I might
suggest works for me, in time you may find a different, more comfortable way of
doing for yourself.
A good pencil portrait
or a good drawing is just that. Nobody is interested in how you got to the
finished piece (unless they want to learn). The finished portrait is what is
important.
So be yourself .
