Drawing Day 1: Getting Started with a Pencil
This three-minute video shows how I took the first step towards learning to draw and getting over my slight fear of pencils. After talking about my limited drawing supplies, I practiced drawing straight lines and squares. It’s not much, but hey, you gotta start somewhere!
Now for the links:
- The practice exercises were inspired by this video: Sketching Warm Up.
- Choosing a Pencil for Line Art Drawing - Video from ExpertVillage talking about types of pencils and erasers.
