via Skillshare

Overview

Hi there! Welcome to my 2nd class about ballpoint pens! 

This is a project-based class : after you finish watching it, you'll be able to draw your own stylized animal, using one of my ballpoint pen techniques (or a combination of all of them). 

Level : Beginner 

There are no prerequisites for this class! Anyone can doodle with a ballpoint pen, but if you don't feel comfortable drawing with one you can have a look at my introductory class : Ballpoint Pen : 3 Techniques For Beginners. The same applies if you're not comfortable with your drawing skills : you can follow my step by step process to draw a sparrow, and then make it unique with your own combination of patterns.  

Supplies :

  • a ballpoint pen (any brand or color)
  • a piece of paper
  • a pencil and an eraser for sketching 

What you'll learn : 

  • my drawing technique, how i create flowing shapes and patterns
  • 3 different patterns to unleash your creativity
  • how to draw a sparrow step by step 
  • a few tips and tricks to help you create unique drawings
