Do you want to learn to draw but don't know where to start? Start with the basic shapes. Every complex object can be broken down into these simple shapes. It will help you understand form, light and shadows.

This class is for beginners or anyone who wants to brush up on their fundamentals.

Download the project file on the project page. It includes a study guide/workbook pdf, reference used in this class and MORE reference photos for students who want more practice.

This is a simple approach to drawing. You don't need the best tools to get started. Start with what you have and learn to use your tools well.

You'll need:

a sketchbook
4 pencils
an eraser

For the class project, show us your understanding of the basic shapes.

You can use the 'time to draw' videos provided in the lesson. Each video is between 10-20 minutes. Or download the study guide that includes reference photos. Upload your images to the class projects and get a review comment from me.
