Drawing
What happens from the eyes through the brain to the hands? Drawing lessons are supposed make the budding artist become aware of how to translate the 3-D images that the eyes see into a draw-able 2-D image to fit proportionally onto the drawing surface. There are a couple of methods that artists have used for centuries. One is the grid method and another is called sighting.
Once drawing is going fairly well, a student studies other aspects of drawing such as texture and shading, for instance, as well as perspective and the principles of composition.
Without further rambling, I have a few drawing resources and ideas. Browse the bottom row of links in the menu bar above to see drawing resources.
