- Use three or more colors*
- Fill the paper
- Show details
- Show the background and the ground/what it is sitting on
- If outside, show the time of day and the weather
- If you make a mistake, first try to draw over it or turn it into something else. Next turn the paper over or get a new paper. Never crumple the mistake--just set it aside.
