Beginners should know these essential drawing techniques: 1. *Line art*: Creating shapes and forms using various line weights and styles. 2. *Value and shading*: Creating depth and dimension with different shading techniques (hatching, cross-hatching, stippling). 3. *Proportion and measurement*: Ensuring accurate proportions and measurements in drawings. 4. *Perspective*: Creating realistic scenes with linear perspective (one-point, two-point, three-point). 5. *Gesture drawing*: Quickly capturing the overall pose and movement of a subject. 6. *Contour drawing*: Focusing on the outline and edges of a subject. 7. *Hatching and cross-hatching*: Creating shading and texture with parallel and perpendicular lines. 8. *Stippling*: Creating images with small dots (pointillism). 9. *Blending and smudging*: Merging shades and creating soft transitions. 10. *Practice and observation*: Regularly practicing drawing and observing subjects to improve skills. Mastering these techniques will provide a solid foundation for beginners to develop their drawing skills. read less
