How to get the hand to draw

To begin practice in simple lines. Take a small sheet of paper. Draw a square of side 10 cm. And gently fill it with continuous lines vertically, horizontally and diagonally. Gradually change the pressure on the pencil, creating a smooth change in tone. The line should be clear, confident, with equal distance between them. This is the first and simple exercise will teach you how to draw correct lines, which is very important in the construction of the figure and the shading.

Draw all the free time. Transfer to paper what I see around. Get yourself a small notebook and some pencils, let this set will always be with you. You can capture a tree in a Park or to portray sitting in front of you in traffic. The main thing that you more drew, trained hand and eye. Optionally, the pattern needs to be completed, may it be a sketch.

Try to get a clear line drawing. Practice on simple subjects. Try to make a sketch of mugs, vases, chair. Once you master drawing simple objects, to the still life. Put several objects of different textures. Or try to represent the folds of drapery.

Ask someone from relatives to pose for you. No need to try to clearly draw the face or hands, start with a clear picture of the whole figure. Work out the volume, indicate light and shadow. Try to draw from different angles and under different lighting conditions.

Often copy drawings and paintings of famous masters of art. You should not take a complex composition. First, you can copy part of a picture, but to clarify all the details. Gradually move to more complex work. This will help you to correctly build the composition, to depict objects and to work in color.
