    About this ebook

    So many of us daydream about being able to create artwork, particularly pencil and charcoal drawings, but we just don’t know how to get started. How does an artist do all that blending, and shading, and contrasting? It all seems so complicated. But, in this book, you will see that it is not as hard as it may seem. Simple instructions will show you how to create your very own portrait drawing, by teaching you the techniques experienced artists use to complete their pencil masterpieces. Do you know what tools you will need? Or do you just need a pencil and paper? These are some of the common questions asked, and the answers lie within the following chapters. Each chapter will show you a new technique, and instruct you on how to apply it to your own drawings. It will teach you how to use a blending stump, and even explain to you what a blending stump is! You will also learn how to protect and preserve your drawings, so you can look back at them in the future, and see how far you have come and what you have achieved.
    The chapters will include the following, plus more:

    What tools you need
    How to make a shading guide
    Creating 3D drawings
    How to draw a portrait
    Drawing eyes
    How to make a grid
