Intermediate level

The diverse articles, lessons, and projects in the Intermediate section encourage artists to expand both their drawing skills and creativity, by working more independently. The primary objective is to challenge students to further develop their visual skills; hence, verbal instructions are kept to a minimum. It is assumed that artists, working through Intermediate lessons, already have a firm grasp of basic drawing terms and techniques taught throughout the Beginner section.

How to Use Intermediate Lessons

Intermediate lessons focus on enjoyable drawing subjects, including people, animals, and cartoons, and the curriculum expands on the drawing skills introduced in the Beginner section. However, unlike the Beginner section, these articles and projects are not in sequential order according to their degree of difficulty. Hence, students can flip through the diverse projects in all ten sections, and then simply jump on in and have fun completing the lessons they find appealing.

Note: If you begin to feel overwhelmed or frustrated because some lessons are beyond your current skill level, you can always go back to Beginner level lessons that are specific to the projects you enjoy most! Remember, your skills become stronger with every drawing you do - even the ones that don't turn out as well as you want!
