How to Draw with Lyn Evans

Drawing is basically quite simple.....you put down what you see and the trick is to use all the tools at your disposal to make it easier.

You don't need a lot to start. Few pencils, bits of charcoal and a cheap sketch book. Maybe a little bottle of ink and some sharp sticks or pens. The odd biro. Nothing too expensive, mainly it's lots of enthusiasm and a willingness to practice.

Drawing well is terribly important. Lots of people trace from photos, and that’s fine, but I feel strongly that to produce a lovely drawing, especially a drawing as a start to a painting,

we have to do it ourselves. From start to finish.

I would start the day with some examples of drawing with a pencil, different effects etc. A bit of perspective and tone. Then I would set them off drawing from a photo of a simple landscape. After lunch we can try using charcoal and inks. Experimenting with different kinds of line and effects. I will bring in and we can gather some source material for this.
