Well you could start by getting yourself a good sized sketch book, with acid free paper!. Then you can experiment using different mediums, such as acrylic paint, water colours, pencil, charcoal etc!.
I remember when I started, I was made to draw a bowl of fruit (not very origanl) lol but it's good to start with some life drawing!.
You could go outside in your yard and sketch a few flowers, plants, insects and shade them with your pencil, or use some water colour pencils (which are my fave :)

Hope this helps you in some way!.

Have fun :D

Oh & you can also purchase specific paper and canvas for the acrylics, water colour, charcoal etc!. but I suppose that's after you get started!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
