Learn Beginner’s Drawing Skills

Lo’s lessons move from simple shapes to angles, folds, everyday objects and texture. The sequence builds drawing decisions gradually, helping a beginner notice the relationship between structure and shading. A range of ordinary subjects provides practice in looking carefully rather than depending on a single polished demonstration.

What you will learn

• Observe shapes, angles and folds
• Shade everyday objects
• Represent different surface textures

Who this suits

Best for a beginner wanting a varied set of practical pencil exercises and a gradual progression from simple forms toward more detailed observational studies.

Before you enroll

The provider lists sketchbook or copy paper, an eraser and HB, 2B, 4B and 8B pencils. About four hours and 25 minutes of video are listed, with an October 2024 update. Materials are separate from enrollment. Work at a manageable pace and repeat exercises rather than treating video completion as drawing proficiency.

Udemy offers paid purchase or subscription access depending on the current course and region. Paid teaching courses provide completion certificates under Udemy’s policy. Check current access terms and any separate software or material costs before enrolling.

Put it into practice

Draw the same folded piece of paper under two lighting conditions. Identify its main angles before shading and compare how the value pattern changes while the underlying structure remains the same.
