Learning how to draw accurately is not difficult, it is all about training your eye to compare and contrast what you see. In this easy still life drawing tutorial video I show beginners how to draw accurately by learning basic techniques in a simple step by step approach. Simply, I explain how to use your pencil as a ruler to measure whatever you are looking at and compare that with other sections of the still life drawing. To do this you must have your arm straight, one eye closed and the ability to move your thumb up and down the pencil.

The way it works is simple, if a section of the drawing is twice as long as another section, you know the same has to apply in your still life drawing. Using these measurements it is possible to create a very accurate drawing of whatever you see. In this case I use a still life as the starting point, but it could be a landscape or even a person. This art tutorial is designed for beginners and those wanting to improve their drawing.

I didn't know I was doing this subconsciously! I always think in terms of fractions and relate them to other parts of the subject but I haven't really thought of doing this with a pencil. Thank you!

Thank you so much. I took an intro art course last night, and the instructor forgot to mention the part about making that first line on the page, and that everything else would be in proportion to the starter line. It was very confusing, but you made it make sense.

You are fab!! I don't draw in this way anymore I am out of practice. Not good, considering I am hopefully going to be teaching art in High school next year, if I am successful at my interview next week. I was looking for ideas to teach a small class - basic observational drawing. I only have 30 mins. I have started a simplistic powerpoint. I think I might use the shading, tone, edges, outline with geometric shapes, idea. Thank you so much.
