Beginners should know these essential drawing techniques: 1. *Line art*: Creating shapes and forms using various line weights and styles. 2. *Value and shading*: Creating depth and dimension with different shading techniques (hatching, cross-hatching, stippling). 3. *Proportion and measurement*: Ensuring accurate proportions and measurements in drawings. 4. *Perspective*: Creating realistic scenes with linear perspective (one-point, two-point, three-point). 5. *Gesture drawing*: Quickly capturing the overall pose and movement of a subject. 6. *Contour drawing*: Focusing on the outline and edges of a subject. 7. *Hatching and cross-hatching*: Creating shading and texture with parallel and perpendicular lines. 8. *Stippling*: Creating images with small dots (pointillism). 9. *Blending and smudging*: Merging shades and creating soft transitions. 10. *Practice and observation*: Regularly practicing drawing and observing subjects to improve skills. Mastering these techniques will provide a solid foundation for beginners to develop their drawing skills. read less

For beginners, it's important to understand your materials prior to developing any techniques. Mastering how to hold pencil in different ways and how to control pressure is a top most technique needed.
