It's about showing up, making a few messes, and slowly getting better at understanding shapes, light, and shadows. ## Photos and videos - [Video: It all starts with practice. This video shows how mastering basic shapes and shading directly translates into creating complex, realistic portraits. Progress is the goal, not perfection.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/95091f29-da9d-4f60-8c47-e6c251160d33) - ![Practicing how to shade spheres to understand how light and shadow create a three dimensional form.

Don't worry if your first sketches of cubes or spheres look weird—we all start there. My classes focus on breaking down these complex forms into simple, manageable steps, so you aren't overwhelmed by the big picture. Art is basically my therapy. If I can do it after a long day of corporate work, you definitely can too. Most people get intimidated by hyperrealism right away, but you have to build the foundation first. We start with simple stuff like spheres and cubes because that teaches you how light hits an object. That knowledge of shadow and form is what makes a flat drawing look 3D. ### How We Work Together I host these classes via Google Meet or Zoom, straight from my Delhi home studio. We go through the fundamentals together. You'll learn: * **Pencil Grip & Control:** Improving your strokes so your lines are smooth, not shaky. * **Light & Shadow Theory:** Placing shadows correctly to create depth. * **Rendering Forms:** Turning simple shapes into 3D objects. You don't need fancy materials to start. Even standard graphite pencils and decent paper will do the job. I'll show you how I use my favorite tools—like Faber-Castell and Staedtler—so you can see what actually makes a difference. ### The Reality of Practice I always say, art involves 3h ki mehnat (3 hours of hard work) sometimes just to get a background right. Some days are just messy, and that is completely fine. My goal is to make sure you feel comfortable making mistakes, learning from them, and moving to the next level. If you are a complete beginner looking to build your skills from the ground up, let's start with a session and see where your interest takes you. ## About Vishal Hey, I'm Vishal. Art is my way of unwinding after a long corporate day. I am not a stuffy teacher.
