Create images with pencil, pen, charcoal, or digital tools — from quick gesture sketches to detailed illustrations — developing observation skills and a visual voice that is entirely your own.

The Essentials

Start with light, loose strokes to block in the basic shapes and proportions of your subject before adding any detail — a pencil held loosely gives you more freedom for these early marks. Compare sizes and angles across the subject as you go, adjusting your outline until the proportions look right. Once the structure feels solid, build up darker lines and details, working from general shapes to specific features. Add shading last by layering light strokes in the direction of the form to suggest depth and light, pressing harder for darker areas. Step back periodically to check the whole drawing rather than only focusing on one small section.
