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.
