Trying to teach myself how to draw...

[KarenS]

ok So i am trying to teach myself to draw starting with copying from an image or from a bit by bit guide to show people how to draw... the first is from a photo of Pepsi



The second is from a video online to teach you how to draw eyes...



the third is just me messing around with where you put features on a face...




so anyways thats all i have so far but well i think they are ok for a beginner..

Well done, Can't wait to see them coloured in

Looks like we could have found the next Tony Hart

Very nice Karen ... I like the budgie. It's always fun to draw & paint.

Here are a few online sites that offer some fun while drawing & doodling & playing with artsy type toys.


In this site you can join a room with other people & draw on the wall with many options of tools & colors. Brilliant fun. You can also make your own room & go draw in there.

I love the eye Karen - you should have a go at drawing your own eyes or eye using a mirror. Did you get my message about budgie clubs on the events page ? Would be great if there is one nearby that you can attend - I enjoyed my first meeting and that was the AGM lol -The budgie crack was good and picked up loads of tips. Google Budgerigar clubs and see if there is one nearby

Heya, nice pics.. my advice would be to join deviantart thats how I started and im slowly improving

what you looking to draw? I focus on dogs.. really helpful if you use construction lines but I know some people don't like them

Seriously though, Deviantart. Join and use the search bar for tutorials. Upload your art and get crtique on how you can improve.
