If you can write your name you can learn to draw

Yes it's true. You can learn to draw and you don't have to have an extraordinary talent - it is simply a question of being taught how to do so.

Over twenty years ago Dr Betty Edwards developed a teaching method that would enable students to learn the five perceptual skills of drawing in as little as five days.

These five skills form the global skill of drawing and once learned, like learning to read or drive a car, they are learnt for life.

Once you have learned these skills you will be able to draw anything - portraits, cats, dogs, the human figure, landscapes, architecture, hands, feet, still lifes... the list is endless. The method is the same it is only the complexity of your subject and the media that varies.

Whether you are looking for a new hobby, or maybe you have always just wished you could learn to draw; you might be studying art or perhaps you are a painter and want to brush up your drawing skills or simply express your ideas more creatively. You might not have picked up a pencil since you were in school. Whatever the reason, learning drawing can boost your creativity and confidence.
