Welcome to the Simple Tutorials Hub! If you've grasped some of the basics from our Getting Started and Foundation Skills Hubs, or you're just eager to get drawing, you're in the perfect spot.
Here, I've put together a selection of easy-to-follow coloured pencil projects specifically designed for beginners.
My aim is to help you practice the techniques you're learning in a fun and rewarding way, building your skills and your confidence with each piece you create. These tutorials will guide you step-by-step, so you can relax, enjoy the process, and start making art you can be proud of right away.
Ready to create your first beautiful still life? This step-by-step tutorial guides you through drawing and colouring a lovely bowl of fruit. It's a fantastic way to practice basic shapes, shading simple forms, and layering coloured pencil.
I'm busy restructuring the site to move the beginner tutorials into this spot to make them easy for you to find. Please check back soon for new tutorials to try!
