In this tutorial we will learn how to get comfortable with drawing shapes and some of the basic concepts that we can build upon through our beginner drawing journey!

We will start our drawing journey by following these stages of practice, this is what we go through in the worksheets above.

Stage 1. Shapes

Here we draw some fun shapes and practice the feeling of making marks on the page. We want to develop the habit of drawing with confidence and we can do that by first taking the time just draw some shapes.

Do this without any pressure and just have fun, approach this with curiosity and playfulness

Stage 2. Faces

Now to make this extra fun lets add some cute and goofy faces to some shapes. Start with the shape first and then add the face by drawing two dots and a curved line.

Stage 3. Noses

Let’s take our fun little faces a step further by adding some noses. Feel free to use triangles and circles to draw these noses. You can also play around with different expressions if you are feeling extra ambitious.

Stage 4. Basic Shapes

Now let’s take a step back and practice the 3 basic shapes which are the triangle, box (squares and rectangles) and the circle. We need to be comfortable with these shapes to help us draw more complex things.

Stage 5. Construction

We can combine the basic shapes to create more complex ones by drawing them on top of each other and erasing away the overlap. This is how you can take a detailed subject matter and break it down into simpler shapes.

Stage 6. Constructed Faces

Now we can combine what we have learned and draw some faces using construction. Note that you don’t always have to use construction, its just one tool to help you along the way.

If you are able to draw the shapes without construction you can always do that.

Practice

Take the time to practice these basics in your sketchbook or on plain paper. Make sure to have fun and experiment, drawing can be challenging at first but if you put the effort into having fun it becomes much easier.

Once you complete this lesson you can move onto Lesson #2 where we go over the basic forms.
