Pencil sketching offers an alternative to putting your thoughts onto paper when words are not enough to express what you are thinking. It's inexpensive and all you need is a pencil and a piece of paper. You can sketch anywhere at anytime and if you choose to do so, you can even sell your artwork.
Learning how to sketch is easy and it's an ideal creative outlet for people who are wanting to explore their creative side. One of the reasons that pencil sketching is an ideal creative outlet for new artists is because the pencil is such a forgiving medium. If you make a mistake, you can always erase it. This means that you can try many times and make many mistakes before you decide that you are satisfied with the end result.
Sketching is a fun-to-do art and it can be very satisfying when you see your finished sketches. Everyone who sketches does it for their own reasons such as for fun, as a hobby, relaxation or to even make a living. For whatever reason that you sketch, just remember to be patient and have fun because becoming a good artist doesn't happen overnight.
To become a good sketch artist you will need to first learn the basics then build upon that knowledge over time. You will also need a few instruments such as paper, pencil and an eraser to get started.
A typical HB pencil that you buy for everyday use is near the middle of the range of hard and soft leads. When you are only beginning to discover how to sketch, you won't need to buy too many or high quality pencils.
The proper way to hold a pencil when sketching is loosely but firmly - don't grip it too tightly. Allow yourself the ability to control the pencil without choking it. This may take some practice, but doing a few practice drawings may help you get a feel for the right grip as your learn how to pencil sketch.
When you first start a sketch you should make your lines very light in case you have to erase a mistake. Many beginners (and sometimes even experienced artists) press down to hard on the pencil which of course makes a dark line. These dark lines are harder to erase and will leave an indention in the paper which can damage the paper.
It's also a good idea to visualize what your final drawing will look like before you get started. This is kind of like having a roadmap to your final destination which makes it much easier to follow than randomly driving around hoping you'll end up where you want to go. It can also help you to avoid the mistake of making your drawing to big and end up running out of space.
If you're having a hard time getting started always remember to use basic shapes such as circles, ovals, and even triangles as a foundation for your drawing. It also helps to not worry about the smaller details until you are almost finished. Focus on the bigger aspects then work your way to the smaller stuff.
