Learn How To Draw By Looking More Carefully

By: Michael Dale

Is it true when a person says that they can't draw?

In reality, most people draw each and every day.

The function of drawing is to make marks onto paper or another surface. These marks will show ideas and information. Communication with these marks is usually done with writing or pictures.

"If you are capable of writing... you are equally capable of drawing"

Drawing pictures uses the same skills as writing a message.

When you write you don't think about what it is you are doing...

* You are forming lines

* You are drawing circles

* You are creating curves

Writing becomes an instinctive act because you were taught from an early age. Because you have been writing for so long it becomes natural.

The same skills are used for drawing that you use when you write...

* You can use a series of lines to draw a house

* You use a combination of curves to draw a face

There is nothing to stop you learning to draw. You can learn to draw if you take time and effort to improve your drawing skills.

Here's a challenge... Take a pen or pencil and draw a cat or a dog. If you aren't used to drawing the result will disappoint you. Your drawing might not look anything like a cat or a dog.

Because you already think that you can't draw there is no surprise.

The surprise might be to learn that many artists would also fail to get an exact likeness.

When you learn to draw, the real challenge is to improve your observation skills.

By looking more carefully at the dog and cat you see more. Look closely at the head...

* See the shape of the head

* See how the ears are placed on top

* See the eyes

* Look at the nose

In seconds you discover a better understanding. The picture in your mind will be strong and crystal clear...

"Now, go and try to draw your cat or dog again and see the sudden improvement in your drawing"
