Learn to Draw offers thirty simple lessons to teach artists young and old basic drawing concepts and techniques such as lines, placement, overlapping, and shading. Practice your drawing skills as you copy pencil drawings of animals, objects, landscapes, and people. Each lesson is Bible-based and the entire curriculum encourages artists to draw for the glory of God.

The first lesson in the book is about keeping a good attitude while drawing. Lessons 2-10 teach different drawing techniques and concepts. In each of the next twenty lessons, the student simply copies a drawing for drawing practice. A simple outline of part of each drawing helps the student get started.
