Learn to Draw: A Beginner's Step-by-Step Guide

By: Lorke, Richard Leonard

Ever wanted to draw but didn't know where to start? Learn to Draw: A Beginner's Step-by-Step Guide takes you from a completely blank page to your first finished drawings - no prior experience needed.

Every lesson breaks down into small, concrete steps: hold the pencil, build a circle from a square, find a vanishing point, map five values on a sphere. Nothing is assumed and nothing is skipped.

What's InsideMaterials, grip, and stroke control from your very first pencil marksFour basic forms - circle, cube, cylinder, cone - that build almost everything elseOne-point perspective, explained through a single reliable methodProportion grids for faces and figuresShading and value, including a five-zone system for convincing formStill life, landscape, and eight guided practice projects

Each chapter follows the same pattern: a short explanation, numbered steps you can follow right away, a labeled diagram, and a hands-on exercise. A closing glossary and a page of next steps carry you past the last chapter.

Whether you're picking up a pencil for the first time or returning after years away, this book meets you exactly where you are.
