Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life, said a Greek philosopher. The deeply thoughtful face of a sculpture of Greek philosopher is captured with pencil on paper. Pencil drawing is a simple skill, but it is a great method to preserve the moment of inspiration.
Anyone can paint, and draw, and you have a great idea in your brain. However, your creativity will stay only inside of yourself if you do not know how to express it. Learning how to paint and draw is similar to learning the language.

From rough sketching to detailed drawing, every step is important. Contemporary artists, traditional oil painters, pop artists, all should learn the very basic skills of drawing and painting as a foundation of building artworks. You can build a tall and beautiful building only on a strong foundation.
First, learn how to capture a 'moment' with proper sketching skills.
Second, learn how to plan to apply a base coat of paint.
Third, learn how to deal with the colour matching between what you think, and what to show on the canvas
Fourth, learn how to paint with skillful technique.
