In order to make progress in drawing, continuous training is required that reinforces the eyes and hands and aligns them to transfer them to the worksheet. The advantages of using graphite pencils in the drawing and the technique of shading with a pencil can be seen in the availability and cost of the tools used. This feature allows you to work and enjoy with the simplest tools, with a pencil and a sheet of paper, whenever and wherever you want to draw. Even more expensive gadgets such as brushes can be replaced with more simple tools like cotton and ear cleaners.

Working with pencils can easily be repaired and runs on a variety of paper and cardboard materials. Graphite pencils are one of the simplest artistic products that most famous brands such as Fabercastel, Staedtler, Derwent and ... produce various types of pencils with various degrees of difficulty.

In this course, we get to know some general ways and principles of sketching, we'll get to know the types of equipment of sketching, we learn how to make volumes on the simple geometrical shapes, and also we introduce the hyper-real sketches and learn how to do them.

We start the sketching with some simple shapes like a flower, tree, house, horse, etc. And we shade each one of them with graphite pencils.

In the second phase of the course, we want to do hyper-real sketches and shadings from a  real photo. In this phase, the sketch of all parts of the face like eyes and eyebrows and eyelashes, lips and teeth, and nose will be taught. And after sketching each one of them the way of shadings and how you should make volume will also be taught completely.

At the end of this course and completing the exercises, the students should be able to:

1. Know the types of equipment for primary and hyper-real sketches.

2. Know different types of pencils and how to use them.

3. Shade with different tonnages

4. Make volumes simple geometrical shapes.

5. Sketch the simple shapes and also know how to make volume on them with different kinds of pencils and different ways of shadings.
