This seashell drawing tutorial will show you some observational drawing techniques focusing on contour drawing for beginners. This contour drawing, or continuous line drawing, tutorial will walk you through the practice of using one line to capture the outer edges of an object. This is done with pen in my sketchbook and then I add watercolor to make the shells pop.
