Learning To Draw

Learning to draw may seem a bit scary (not like vampire bat scary), but some kids can be a bit hesitant.

The best way to start is not to compare yourself to others and to follow along by reading drawing tutorials like this easy drawing tutorial. You can enjoy the moment of learning something new and be proud of yourself for trying.

Starting with simple shapes like squares, circles, and triangles is a great way to begin. Don't miss our 3D Cube Drawing for some drawing basics. We have found that learning to draw something new is as easy as putting a pencil on paper and start drawing.

When learning to draw the most important thing to remember is to try your best! If you do that, then you are already an amazing artist!
