Sketchnote Tutorial: Simple Drawing with 5 Basic Elements
In this 14 minute lesson, Mike Rohde, author of The Sketchnote Handbook and The Sketchnote Workbook teaches the concept of drawing simply with The 5 Basic Elements of Drawing.
If you think you can't draw, take a few minutes to try this approach using only a Square, Circle, Triangle, Line, and Dot to build images.
Mike also shares simple, bold lettering techniques and an exercise that shows you how just a few simple lines can give a face real expression.
