THE PURPOSE
At nearly any time at all, you can pick up a pencil and sketch something. While waiting for an appointment. Before work or school starts. While the TV is on. During a meeting. Any time! Drawing is fun and hopefully these videos will inspire you to create!
CAN I REALLY DO THIS?
Of course! The videos in this series are meant to show simple steps toward making a great drawing. Perspective, shadows and highlights, composition, depth, structure and more are discussed in an easy to understand way.
