Hello, dear artists. Time does not stand still and with each passing year new methods of drawing appear. People can now draw with a stylus, finger and even with hands in the air with the help of tools for virtual reality. But today we want to show the drawing tool that will never go out of style. So, let’s start a lesson about how to draw a pencil.

On the body of the pencil draw two long lines. These lines help to hold the pencil in hand better, because a round pencil in the hands does not fit so well as a hexagonal one. On the ferrule draw short longitudinal lines.
