Hello Sreeja, you have asked about the basics of drawing. So the first thing you need to know the suitable way pf holding a pencil. For this there is actually no hard and fast rule. You have to understand that way by your own. The next thing you need to practice some of the two dimensional shapes like circle, triangle, square ect. This will basically help you to draw straight lines or loops perfectly. Now these are the basic steps as a beginner to start drawing. I have thought many children the basics of drawing and they are benifited of that. Hope you will also find it useful. Thank you. read less

Do drawing classes also have you make your own art, instead of just drawing what's around you?
Of course. First we practice drawing which helps us recognize and draw the form of all the things around us. It is those forms that later shape our art practice.

Why do drawing pencils not have erasers?
Either way, drawing pencils tend to lack erasers because the expectation is not that artists never erase, but rather when they do erase, artists want control, comfort, and the utmost safety for their medium (be it paper, canvas, or anything else).
