Does anyone could suggest complete video series of tutorials on how to draw for complete beginners? It might not be specifically for traditional or digital art, but I would like prefer digital, if possible (I found myself enjoying less when I draw on paper compared to drawing tablet). YouTube, PeerTube, whatever in video form. Thank you in advance. |

Back when I had a bit more time I was working through the exercises on Draw a Box. The author says to do them on paper with pen, but if you’re not sending them in for grading it’s not like anyone will stop you from using a tablet. I’m not sure why, but I prefer doing that, too. |

Huh, thank you, I will check out lessons from there, but I am not going to lie - the amount of stuff that this site tries to connect to and run, and the design of it makes me upset, haha. |

Yeah it’s waaay busier than it needs to be, and that is super off-putting. I liked the lessons once I finally got to them, though. |

Maybe it has something to do with the fact, that you are less limited to physical world perhaps? With pencil, paper and rubber you are limited to always sharpening pencil, with rubber you left small bits behind that you need to clean, it does not even fully erases markings, and if you apply too much of a force — you can even tear up paper. While with tablet you have the comfort of using pen-like object, but with less limitation of our whimsy physical word. |
