Description: I will be uploading a series of lessons on some very influential people from history. These people will vary from presidents to scientists. To start we will tackle the task of learning "how to draw Richard Nixon", step by step. Nixon was the United States thirty seventh president that had a variety of problems as well as successes. For one, Richard Nixon helped end the American war in Vietnam which was a war that accumulated thousands of protesters around the nation. He was also responsible for getting rid of the draft, wrote in the very first anti-crime laws (which today is something that a lot of people don't approve of), as well as soothing the wound that the United States had with China by improving our relationship with them. Before he became president America was in dire need of help. Its cities was in turbulence as well as in a painful state. Although Richard M. Nixon did some good things while he was president, he was also part of a historic scandal that will forever be talked about which is known as the 'Watergate Scandal'. Because of this error, he had to respectfully resign and turnover his presidency to Gerald Ford. The tutorial I made for you should be simple to follow and understand so I hope you have fun drawing Richard Nixon, I will be sure to hurry with the other tuts I have in store for all of you. Adios people!
