To draw well, you need to develop five interconnected skills that cover how you see and how you mark the page.

• Line and contour: contour drawing trains your eye to follow edges closely and translate them onto paper.
• Shape and proportion: proportion means judging how parts relate in size, so a head stays in balance with the body.
• Tone and shading: adding light and dark values gives your drawing depth and a three-dimensional feel.
• 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.
