Drawing rests on five core skills that work together to create realistic, expressive artwork.

• Line and contour: mastering line quality means controlling weight, flow and direction with confidence.
• Shape and proportion: seeing shapes first keeps your drawing accurate and saves you from erasing later.
• Tone and shading: techniques like hatching, cross-hatching and blending create a full range of tones.
• Perspective: understanding vanishing points helps you draw buildings, roads and interiors convincingly.
• Composition: a strong composition turns a collection of objects into a unified piece of art.

A private drawing tutor can assess which of these skills needs the most attention and build targeted exercises around it.

• Follow a curriculum: a step-by-step programme prevents the frustration of jumping between random tutorials.
