How to Draw Geometric Shapes
Can't draw a straight line? Artists' secret revealed! I have been an artist for over 25 years and I can't either. Frankly, I don't know an artist who can. Besides, straight lines are highly overrated. There are virtually no straight lines in nature and curves and zig zags and found in our natural world are far more interesting anyway.

Granted there are times when drawing a straight line comes in handy though. If you want to learn how to draw 3d perspective, how to draw a house, how to draw stairs, how to draw a door or how to draw a window, a ruler will do the trick nicely. OOOPS, I just gave away the secret.

| Oh well, now you know.. Artists use rulers for straight line drawings. They use french curves to draw arcs, perhaps a plate or glass from the cupboard to draw a sun or moon. |

Where ever did we get this notion that we had to draw everything without tools? A chef gets to use pots and pans and a recipie book, a musician gets to use an instrument and sheet music and an artist gets to use artists tools and reference images. Another thing all artist share in common is that they benefit from good instruction, encouragement, and lots of practice.
