Pencil Drawings

These pencil drawings have no set category or theme for where they belong, so altogether they make up a nice jumbled assortment. Candle Drawing

Do you have a tiny part of you that says "I'd really love to know how to draw"? Well, it is very achievable and there is no time like the present!

Just follow along with me and copy these basic drawings. If you enjoy copying, then you are in for a great time.

Find the selection of links over on the right - anything from cross drawings to flame drawings, they are there for you to copy or for use in projects.

If you are teaching yourself to draw, I recommend starting with pencil because it is a forgiving medium. If you make a mistake, there is no drama, simply erase the mistake and continue on.

I always use either a mechanical pencil or "B" grade pencils. My sister gave me a lovely set with all types of "B" sketching pencils which I use nearly everyday.

Select your preferred topic or subject and then find something with lots of white space in and around it.

I started off doing cartoon characters and animal cartoon drawings because I found they were the easiest subject for me to tackle. I was inspired to do more once I saw I achieved a good likeness.

The drawings in pencil that are represented on this site are all simple and easy to copy because they are the ones I did when I was learning.

It is just like being able to write, the more you practice the neater your writing becomes. By sketching often, your drawings will improve.

I will always remind you to keep on putting the date on your drawings because I think it is an important part of your training.

You will feel very proud of yourself when you look back at the drawings you did at the start and how your drawings are looking now. That comparison won't mean as much if you forget to note the dates.

One of my favorite drawing books is called Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. Make sure you read it a couple times over the course of a year or 2, because it is amazing how much difference it makes when you re-read the book. Somehow, things just make more sense and it is very helpful advice.
