Katie's Tutorials
for
Beginners
If you're new to drawing, it may be very frustrating for you. You may not think you're ever going to get better at what you love to do. The truth is, it takes practice, just like everyone says it does. There's a lot to learn about every little aspect of drawing that, while not necessarily are things you need to memorize, are things that should come naturally and that you should remember after you practice enough. I'm here to show beginners things they might not know to get them off on the right foot. I've been waiting to make this thread for a long time. I am not a professional nor expert at drawing, but I am sufficient enough that I think I have a thing or two that I can teach.
What I'll Teach
I will teach the following in the form of lessons. Each lesson will include some sub-lessons that go with the topic. I will not do them in order all the time, but I will try to pair one basic lesson with one hard one when I can. Each lesson will include text, images, videos, and maybe even livestreams to give you as much help as possible.

It won't do it for them, but it will do its best to help and give tips about things you may have never thought of before. I can't wait to show you your first lesson, but as of now this is an interest thread. While I finish up the first lesson, please post here if you are interested in potential tutorials.
