Discover your unique inner artist through 21 intuitive, process-based lessons! You can choose to explore the lessons in any order; however, I recommend starting your journey with the first lesson of each section. These openers help you develop the basic skills needed to progress with confidence. Remember, keep your time commitment short and your tools and materials simple while you are making your creative practice a regular part of everyday life. If you can complete these twenty-one lessons, I have no doubt you will have made your creative practice a daily habit and will soon be looking for more time, every day, to explore mark making in your unique way. With Drawing Is for Everyone, you can learn how to build a daily drawing practice and how to set intentions and create, even if you have just 10 minutes a day. GRAPHITE / LESSON TWO / LET’S MAKE MARKS You might be wondering why it’s called graphite, when it’s just a pencil. There are many kinds of pencils available to artists—from charcoal pencils to colored pencils, even carbon pencils. All have their place, and hopefully one day you’ll explore them. For now, we’ll focus on graphite pencils. COLORED PENCIL / LESSON EIGHT / A SWATCH OF MANY COLORS Oh, the pleasures of color. It can lift our spirits, soothe our anxiety, and bring energy to our days. The world loves color, and color brings the world to life. Although graphite can give us elegant monochromatic drawings of grays, colored pencil brings our efforts into full- spectrum beauty. INK / LESSON SEVENTEEN / CIRCLE FLOWER POWER Our next medium brings a whole new world to our drawing work—the ability to have the crisp brilliant line work of the pen plus the advantage of being able to use a wet brush to create beautiful washes of color. The types of ink pens we can use are so varied—from the bold graphic black line of a technical pen, to the fluid rainbow of colors available with markers and brush pens, to the metallic glimmer of gel pens. In this section, we explore them all.
