This drawing lesson is perfect for beginners who want to apply the basic skills to actually drawing something! In this tutorial we'll draw a simple pear but we'll focus on creating a realistic sense of 3D form. To do this I'll take you through a four step drawing process of structure, sketching, shading and detail.

You'll learn:

• how to measure basic proportions

• how to identify highlight, shadow and mid-tone values

• how to build up a sense of form using shading
