Keep your nail or the flesh of your thumb just behind the end of your line so that you can see where it ends. Line the tip up at the end of the line and pinch it at the other end where your line ends.Use my quick and easy step-by-step guide to help you with this technique. Just before we get started drawing circles, you need to learn how to measure a line using your pencil as a measuring device. Now those days are long gone! Since then, I discovered a very quick and easy way to draw circles freehand every time – with just the pencil I use to draw with. I used kitchen side-plates, plastic bowls, a coffee cup and even the base of a can of squirty cream to get the right size circle to trace around. Many years ago when I was a beginner artist, I constantly found myself rummaging around in my studio trying to find the exact size circular object to trace around.
