Drawing is not a talent, it's a skill anyone can learn.
LESSON NOTES
What's in Premium?
In this lesson, I'll show you why every great drawing starts with light lines. You'll learn the two essential pencil grips: the Tripod grip and the Overhand grip. I'll break down the limitations of the grip you use for writing and teach you, step-by-step, how to use the more versatile Overhand grip. This grip allows you to create softer, more expressive, and easily erasable lines. I'll also give you specific exercises to practice drawing long, fluid strokes from your shoulder, a crucial skill for building your drawings.

First time knowing the overhand grip. It's easy to get the hang of this method. Eventually I found it's much more easier to draw. I practice this for 15 min, then move on to next lesson.
I've had little bit of difficult in the beggining drawing lightly but with a little bit of practice I believe I got it. Thank you
Not gonna lie trying to figure out how to angle the pencil onto the paper is a struggle. When I mess up and the exposed wood part of the pencil scrapes against the paper, it gives me the heebie jeebies. But it is ok everybody stumbles a little when learning something new
