Helpful tips for drawing (for perspective and beyond)

1.  Always sit relaxed. 
2.  Make sure all your materials are near by and easy to access.
3.  Start with a sharp pencil.
4.  Your drawing hand should be relaxed.
5.  Draw lightly.  It's easier to erase, and you'll be more relaxed.
6.  Sketch an idea first on a scrap piece of paper.
7.  Mistakes are good, it helps you learn.
8.  Use classroom resources or Internet to gather ideas.
9.  Collect ideas in a folder or sketchbook.
10.  Have FUN!  I mean it!
