    1.What To Draw
    There are many things that you can start out with, you could draw a person, a building, a car, an animal, guitars, landscape, or plants. NOTE: DRAW WHAT MOVES YOU! You'll get bored halfway through the drawing if you don't like what you're drawing or your not interested in that certain topic. To start off sometimes I draw some lines and the brain juices get flowing and then I know what to draw, you can also try looking at things around you and draw one of those objects. It doesn't really matter how good you are at drawing it's just about drawing what you like. Getting started is sometimes the easiest and sometimes the hardest part so make sure you know what to draw.

    2.Getting Started

    So let's say you want to draw your backyard or a person, you want to start off with the basic shape of the subject, draw the most important lines in the drawings if it's a face draw the silhouette of the face and if it's a backyard draw where the grass starts and where the garden starts and the outline of the tree, you get the idea. Then go step by step getting to the smaller details until you have filled the canvas.

    3.The Different Types Of Drawing
    You may be wondering how to draw in certain styles and what these styles are we'll start out with realistic drawing *que bbcodes*
    Realistic Drawing
    Realistic drawing is the easiest style to understand but also hardest style to draw for most people, it's basically drawing what you see here is an example if my latest realistic drawing

    You get the idea right? I'll take that as a yes, next we have concept
    Concept Drawing
    Concept drawing Is drawing how you feel about something or a drawing that tells a story, it's usual very meaningful and takes a long time to think of an idea, it usual isn't very hard to draw but very hard to make it an actual good looking peice of art, heres an example of Green Day's concept cover art on the cover of American Idiot.

    So that's basically it for that style next we have anime.
    Anime
    Anime is basically exaggerating portions on a body dramatically, it's a very beginner style of drawing that is very easy to make look good it is very easy to figure out an idea and is probably the best style for beginners. Here's an anime drawing of mine.

    Easiest way, I hope you draw an anime picture.

    4.Shading

    Shading may be the most important aspect of drawing, but especially in realistic style, it can be the thing that makes or breaks your artwork, it can be very simple or very difficult, on landscapes where objects are straight lined it is very easy but on facial features such as the nose it is the most difficult part of a drawing. Shading is basically the angle of light in the drawing on your paper.

    5.Small Details

    Small details are what makes a good drawer a great drawer it doesn't matter if it's the graffiti on the side of a building or a nose peirce on the side of a face, it basically puts your signature on a drawing

    6.Awesome Signature

    Speaking of signatures (I'm just good at segways like that) what you really need on your drawing is a kick ass signature, you want your signature to be so awesome that half the time your friends are looking at the signature. You can go for the graffiti type signature which is doing reapply sharp lines away from your name while you're writing your name in script or you could go for the concept signature which is really a tiny drawing with your initials in it.
    We are finished here (btw don't judge my drawings before you know that I'm 11)
