Draw Better: Five Easy Techniques to Improve Your Drawing Confidence and Style.

via Skillshare

Overview

Hello and welcome to this class where we will be exploring five techniques that will help you to loosen up your approach to a new drawing subject, and will give you new ways to approach a new subject matter.

This class is great for both:

  • accomplished artists who are stuck in a drawing rut, and who are looking for new ways to approach their drawing subject, and
  • beginners who are new to drawing.

We are not going to be creating finished pieces - instead we will be getting over that 'fear of failure' by creating a series of warm up drawings and techniques that will help you approach your finished drawing in a brand new way.

The materials we will need are simple:

  • Something to draw ON
  • Something to draw WITH
  • SOMETHING to draw!

As we are getting over the fear of failure, you may as well grab a pen instead of a pencil - we won't be rubbing these out! These techniques are designed to take you out of your comfort zone - not to create final pieces. In many cases, what we draw won't look a lot like our subject: that's OK! No one else will see these drawings unless you want them to.
