Art tips & learning notes
Small habits make stronger artists.
Starter tips from the Desktop N Draw learning philosophy.
1. Start with simple shapes
Break a complex subject into circles, ovals, boxes and guiding lines before adding details.
2. Use layers with a plan
Keep sketch, clean line art, base colours, shadows and highlights organised on separate layers where useful.
3. Practise, then try freehand
Use a grid as a learning aid to understand proportions, then gradually reduce your dependence on it.
