These nature drawings are done in their simplest form, so you can learn for yourself how easy they are to draw.

I am happy because I drew these sketches in a very short amount of time.

So, if you are learning to draw, here is something you can copy and get results from straight away.

If you practice with simple drawings first, it saves you from becoming impatient and possibly quitting the hobby - that is not what I want for you!

Add a dash of imagination to your next nature drawing and have some fun.

This is a nice and easy nature illustration. It's all plain lines, squiggles and strokes. I just jumbled everything together and this sketch is the result.

It would look nice in a plain black frame but I'd have to create a much bigger drawing. That is ok since I can definitely use the practice.

Framed nature pictures always look enchanting on any wall.

We all have different tastes I know, but I think this drawing of an old fashioned rose is so pretty.

You should find that this little rose drawing is very straightforward and easy to copy.

You will increase your confidence if you copy these drawings over and over again.

With each and every drawing you do, you are practicing and you will improve without realizing it.

Get out some of your older drawings and compare them to those you did today. You will enjoy doing the comparisons, truly, it is the best form of encouragement that you will ever receive.

For this reason alone, it is important for you to remember to date your drawings.
Actually, I write everything on the back of my drawings. Using a soft pencil, I note:

•   the date
•   where I copied the drawing from (if applicable)
•   the name of the original artist (if applicable)
•   any new drawing technique that I was experimenting with.
•   the grade of pencil chosen and the type of textured paper.

This information comes in handy when you refer back to your experimental drawings because it's impossible to remember absolutely everything you use at that time.
