What if drawing was as easy as writing? What if there was an alphabet of drawing? Well, there is! Drawing inspiration from Mona Brooks' book "Drawing with Children," I'll explain how just five types of shapes can compose any drawing. I'll demonstrate by drawing several things, from a chicken to a photo of my pug. The tutorial is not just about techniques but also about developing a new way of seeing and translating the world into art. It's designed for learners of all levels, focusing on the joy and simplicity of drawing. And it's fun!
