The Art & Science of Drawing / Basic Skills
Why we picked it
It teaches a method for seeing and drawing any subject, a skill that carries into animation, architecture, and industrial design.
Our review
The one-lesson-a-day rhythm fits into a school week instead of competing with it, and there is nothing to buy beyond a pencil and paper. Eviston has taught drawing for more than twenty years, and the course holds a 4.7 average across roughly 15,000 ratings. It is the first of eight courses in the series, so a student who finishes has a clear next step waiting.

About this resource
From the product listing
Brent Eviston opens with a claim worth hearing early: drawing is a skill, not a talent. Across 17 short lessons, he teaches students how to observe a subject, break it into simple shapes, and build a drawing in light lines before committing to dark ones. All it takes is a pencil, paper, and one lesson a day.
