Skill Level:

Beginner

When we were in grade school, we learned how to write by resting our hand on the paper. This is because when we are writing, we need the hand to be steady because of the many strokes in different directions. However, this technique doesn't truly help us when we are drawing. It is certainly possible to draw very well by resting your hand on the page, but if you want to reach the next level of smooth lines, you should learn how to draw from the shoulder.
