As Internet technology continues to evolve so are the number of activities we can accomplish on it.

For instance, before the Web became widely available, we merely relented to watching videos with

poor quality. Today, we can watch videos in hi-def resolution and even have the ability to share

videos that we like to our peers. In relation to that, Internet technology has also allowed experts to

publish ideas and information to a wider audience. These resources in turn also became a way for us

to acquire new skills and hobbies. For instance, we can now learn how to draw by using videos and

other resources on the Web, essentially having an online kunstkurs, which in many instances can be

had for free.

Of course, you still have to buy your standard drawing tools and supplies. For instance, you need to

get a pad of paper with pages that are textured to make drawing much easier, but also sturdy to

remain intact even with erasing. You also have to buy drawing pencils which range in hardness from

2H to 6B, and a good sharpener and eraser, too. Depending on the kind of art that you want to do, you

may also need to buy paints, inks, other coloring materials and different media.

Through these online kunstkurs, you can learn different drawing

techniques such as using perspective and shadows and how to

blend colors. There are also plenty of websites that work like a

social networking site for artists which you can become a

member of so you can upload your works of art and study other

artists’ pieces. By making use of these websites, you can get

opinions from peers so you can also improve on your skills. Most of these online art communities

send newsletters routinely that will provide you with updates about the art world, interviews with

artists, and feature new styles or art merchandise.

Still, there isn't any alternative to practicing. You should set aside time every day to draw. You can

also practice by copying drawings that were made in an identical style to what you are going for. You

may ultimately opt to abandon pencil drawing for pastel chalks, inks, crayons, or paint. There are

various art styles to check out, and art is only restricted by your imagination. You can also have a go

at making digital art. For that, you would require input devices like graphic tablets and pens,

scanners, and a computer that is powerful enough to handle the amount of work.
