Tips & Tricks (Playground)

Quick drawing lessons & practice

Written by Debra

Tips & Tricks is a collection of short, fun mini-lessons that teach you one simple drawing “trick” at a time (like shading, shine ✨, or movement lines ✏️).

Each lesson is designed to help you feel confident using that trick, and then you can jump into a Playground drawing and try it out for yourself 🎨.


🔍 Where to find Tips & Tricks

  • Open the Simply Draw app

  • Go to Playground

  • Scroll until you see the Tips & Tricks section (look for the row of smaller lesson tiles 👀)

  • Tap any lesson to get started


🎬 What happens in a Tips & Tricks lesson

Here’s what you can expect:

  • A quick, playful intro to the trick 🎉

  • A guided draw-along ✍️

  • A “Now you” moment to try it yourself 💡

  • A “What’s next?” suggestion to help you practice the same skill in a Playground drawing ☺️


🚀 How to get the most out of Tips & Tricks

  • Try a few different lessons - each one teaches a new skill 🌈

  • Want to use your new trick right away? Follow the “What’s next?” suggestion and keep practicing in Playground 🎯
