What is the best way to get started in this dive?
 
The first step is to give yourself permission to unleash your imagination and creativity.

Then the key is to practice the following:

Step 1: Recognize why you want to draw.

Step 2: Practice your geometrical shapes.  One of the foundational first steps of simple drawings is mastering the art of drawing shapes.

Step 3: Start looking around at everyday objects.  What shapes do they have?  Look at the shadows.  Light and dark.  Perspective.  

Step 4: Keep on drawing everyday.  Even for just 10 minutes, like one of our expert artists said.

Step 5: Find a place to get honest critiques.  Our Break Diving community is a great place for this! :D
