Hi, I'm Tom McPherson, Artist and founder of Circle Line Art School.
I love drawing and I look forward to sharing with you the key drawing techniques that I have developed over the years, so you can gain from my experience.
I started my YouTube drawing channel Circle Line Art School to offer drawing tutorials to anybody who was interested. As of now my drawing tutorials have been viewed over 150 million times and I am lucky enough to have over 1.8 million subscribers on YT who have given me so much positive feedback. I had always planned to extend the content I make, so I could offer a new level of support. How To Draw From Scratch is the result.

Will I need to work hard?
You do not need any drawing skills before you start the course, just a willingness to start drawing with some discipline and effort, and then you will be on the path to creating something wonderful.
Little by little, a little becomes a lot.
SECTION ONE
In the first section of this course you'll learn how to start a drawing from scratch, how to use thumbnails, how to see and record 2D and 3D shapes and how to use the three essential shadows.
SECTION TWO
In SECTION TWO we focus on tonal values. I show you how to see the tonal value of a colour, how to draw a flat tone and a graded tone. We explore how to use a Tonal Key and then draw a tonal landscape sketch.
SECTION THREE
We consider what lines are. I show you exactly how to draw a straight line and then we explore drawing some different types of line. We also look at how lines can express emotions and depict shapes.
SECTION FOUR
An introduction to basic shapes. We explore how to simplify complex things into basic shapes. We look at how to use negative shapes and how to draw shapes in space.
SECTION FIVE
An introduction to 1-point and 2-point perspective. I show you how to choose the right perspective technique to use, where to place vanishing points and how to find perspective in a photograph.
BONUS CONTENT
I will add occasional exclusive bonus content to this course, including Q&A videos.
Join me in this guided drawing course and have fun learning to draw in a clear and structured way.
