Learn Drawing and Digital Painting from Beginner to Advanced

List Made by Pixaroma

Hi, my name is Ioan Decean, I am from Romania and I want to share with you what I
learned so far about drawing and digital painting. I still learn new stuff every day .
You can find me on http://pixaroma.com/
I also made a group for people who use Photoshop:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/photoshoplove/
If you have questions you can send me a private message on facebook
https://www.facebook.com/pixaroma/

Anyone can draw and paint, it takes time and lots of practice and must be
learned in a certain order. You have to start with the basics in drawing and
then you can move to digital painting. I made this list to help you advance
more quickly.

Drawing Basics
Before you start drawing read this articles:

http://design.tutsplus.com/articles/10-drawing-myths-that-block-your-progress--cms23892
10 Quick Tips on Drawing http://thevirtualinstructor.com/QuicktipsDrawing.html
To be able to draw your hand need some training. Drawing its like learning to write, you
began with shapes, circles, lines, then you did letters, then you combined all to do words,
then you can write without thinking about lines and circles. Drawing its the same, you start
learning to do basic shapes like circles, triangles, lines, squares, then you learn to do it 3D
with the help of perspective, so you do spheres, cubes, cylinders, pyramids and those
shapes are combined to make the rest of the things that surround us.
For digital painting you can start directly in your program. I use Photoshop but you have
other options like Corel Painter, Sai, Gimp, Manga Studio, etc. If you want to draw and paint
on your computer you need a graphic tablet. I use Wacom Intuos 5 M (medium). There are
other option more cheaper and other more expensive like Cintiq from Wacom.

You can also do sketches on paper then scan the drawing or make a photo of it and upload
it on computer then you paint on top of it or use it as guide for digital painting.
What you need for drawing and sketching: a normal pencil HB or 2HB, any paper (i use
printer paper), an eraser hard and soft (kneaded eraser).
