Basics of Drawing

Apr 26, 2009 16:09

I decided to regain my artistic skills (or what used to be) two years ago. It has been way too long for an artist block or any creative/imaginative thought process. I'll start little by little and I'll use a book I bought simply called "The Basics of Drawing" by Barrington Barber. Not sure if anyone has heard of him (I haven't) but his tutorials and lessons are really good for novices such as myself who wants to at least learn the fundamentals.

I will first buy some materials such as pencils, pens, chalks, and possibly watercolor for fun. Currently I am still in school and waiting for it to end in 2 weeks time. By then I'll have the time and freedom to draw and practice; hopefully to soon post even "beginner's" drawings on my DeviantArt site located at Shiezel DeviantArt Site.

I am going to really enjoy this and I definitely feel excited about it. I am going to shoot for my dreams of becoming an Interior Designer or try doing it. I need to build a portfolio in which I have a few even though they're not that good, they're the best I did. More on future career option later =).
