Learn to draw. a book like this can help you get started.
Vamos lá. Minha experiência com desenho:
Tentei, cheguei até um pouco antes da metade. Me frustrei e desisti.
Motivo da frustração: Grande parte do livro é a moça te falando "agora você deve estar satisfeito com o que fez, olha o que meus melhores alunos fizeram para você comparar". BITCH EU NÃO ESTAVA SATISFEITO OK?!
Depois de anos, revisitei meus desenhos e pensei "Olha, até que ficaram legais sim, pqp".
Extremamente massante e arranca a tapa toda a maravilha de desenhar algo. Fiz durante uns 3 meses, não cheguei nem na lição 3 (depois de formas livres). Mas foi o que mais me manteve disciplinado, e a qualidade de alguns dos meus traços (até na escrita) melhorou um pouco.
Testei muito pouco a parte de desenho "clássico", mas o cara desenha bem. Minha crítica é que logo na primeira aula ele já recomenda comprar um lápis que não é lá muito comum.
É interessante, as primeiras lições são uma mistura das lições do Drawing on the Right Side e do ArtFundamentals. Não consegui avançar mais por falta de tempo, mas pelo que eu folheei o livro, é o que mais mostra técnicas diferentes (e por isso, aumenta o custo de materiais).
Fiz um uma vez um tempo atrás. Não suportei mais de 3 aulas porque o professor era péssimo.
Dito isso, vou de acordo com o /u/crazy_student, vá com o Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain (se concentre só nas técnicas).
Recomendo também o ..For the Utter and Absolute Beginner. O livro se baseia nas mesmas técnicas da Betty Edwards no começo, tendo em vista o desenho observacional (na vida real), então um complementa o outro.
NOTA:
Eu sei que existem outros autores, livros e conteúdos. Sempre existiu e sempre existirão, mas foram esses que eu corri atrás.
You can draw in 30 days by Mark Kistler:

i just started with "You can draw in 30 days" http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415
only 10 days in and already i'm seeing an improvement!

Mark Kistler's You Can Draw in 30 Days will teach you the fundamentals of drawing with a slight comic/cartoon bent. It is also a lot of fun as far as intro instructional books go.
http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415?sa-no-redirect=1
This is a great book for those wanting to develop a few drawing skills and some confidence. I highly recommend it to begin with. I've found myself revisiting parts of it when I feel like I need a refresher.
I will to bet after you get this book you will be more then amazed of what you are capable of- https://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1510439433&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=you+cna+sraw+in+30+days. Its seriously one of the best books to learn how to draw, and lots of fun.
I recommend learning to draw. You don't have to become an artist or anything like that but being able to draw a little bit can be very helpful both in thinking about some problems and in explaining ideas to others.
I recommend this book: You Can Draw in 30 Days
This book will teach you how to draw with just a pencil. No need to buy special pencils or expensive art supplies. It also isn't very demanding time wise--literally 30 minutes a day is the minimum for an entire month.
This book focuses on 3D drawing. Another thing that can help is drawing pictures out of your calculus 3 book.
I'm not OP, but this comes from the book You Can Draw in 30 Days. https://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415
I recognize the pictures. The book is a great motivation to try and follow along, but if it's not your cup of tea, you can learn a lot from a combination of youtube and just trial and error.
I've looked around online and never found anything satisfying. Just decided to go old school and bought You Can Draw in 30 Days (a physical book!) and it's been awesome so far. Can't recommend it enough.
Here are some good how-to-draw books which help me a lot
this one is [by Mark Linley] (https://www.amazon.com/How-Draw-Anything-Linley/dp/1567315372)
A very popular book by [Mark Kistler] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0738212415/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1498851864&sr=1-1&refinements=p_27%3AMark+Kistler&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&dpPl=1&dpID=51Dz4esfWnL&ref=plSrch)
[Drawing in 3-D by Mark Kistler] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0684833727/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1498851864&sr=1-4&refinements=p_27%3AMark+Kistler&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&dpPl=1&dpID=61d9g1OF2mL&ref=plSrch)
And to keep you going and practicing every day I highly recommend r/SketchDaily :)
It's funny you say that. I just printed out a bunch of sheet music of songs that I figured out parts of but never committed to playing 100% accurately.
I also got You Can Draw in 30 Days in an effort to beef up my skills. I'm up to about lesson 12 and am digging it so far.
Not any online guide, but I bet you won't be disappointed.

Nice job!
When I started to teach myself to draw I bought Mark Kistler’s You Can Draw In 30 Days. I love that book. It taught me a lot.
I spent $14 on an introductory drawing book
($14 for finally convincing myself that I just might be able to draw is a pretty good deal in the long run) that is now collecting dust because I realized midway through the second lesson that I had no idea how to draw circles, and I wanted to be able to draw good circles.
Then I realized I couldn't draw lines either, and that scared me enough to look for other resources.
Drawabox has already taught me how to draw lines and circles (and... boxes), so I think $3 a month is a steal. I think it's certainly worth more than $1, which is why I didn't pledge that amount when I signed up.
This is the book i'm reading/drawing from! It starts from an extremely basic, "you've never drawn before" sort of standpoint, which I liked.
I've made a lot of progress so far, in just 6 of the lessons. Although, I've taken a little more than a day a lesson.
Maybe she likes or would be interested in knitting? You could buy her some magazinines with knitting tutorials. Also does she know how to use computer and internet? If no maybe there are some courses nearby that could teach her. That would open a new world to her, she could try new things, watch tutorials, learn etc.
Does she have a pet? Maybe you could gift her one for christmas, if she's not allergic.
Also there's this book: http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415
Its not complicated and rather easy to follow, + it actually teaches you how to draw, atleast basics. So this could be a great wait for her to learn a new skill + drawing is like therapy, so that would help her too.
I will like to recommend Mark Kistlers book. Learn to draw in 30 days.

This one isn't bad. Covers basic technique pretty well.
If you're at all interested in trying some books, I'd recommend these two:
Alright, thank you all for the useful tips and information, I plan on getting these books

good luck!
Sorry I probably didn't explain myself well. I do learn 2 musical instruments and I have no problems practicing fundamentals in them. With /r/artfundamentals it feels different. I can't bring myself to do the exercises. For some reason just thinking "alright let's fill 2 pages with lines" makes me discouraged. It would have been a bit better if I could do it with music but without it I'm more focused.
And about learning, for example in the elipses part, a lot fo things are written about elipses but honestly I don't understand what he means and what's the purpose of learning about it (of course it has a purpose but what is it?). Generally it feels like I'm doing it just so my lines and elipses could be a little better. Maybe that's what makes me discourages. Anyways it's hard for me to learn from /r/artfundamentals and I don't know why.
I've seen people recommend "How to draw". Also some people talked about this. And I just found this which is #1 best seller but I didn't see anyone talk about. Which one do you think is best?
I ordered a new drawing book I didn't like my last book and I'm still wondering if I should get a drawing tablet. I blog on a site called Desudaily, but it was recently taken down due to DMCA claims so we're making a new site on Wordpress instead of blogger. The old site was over a year old and we were close to 5000 posts, we were also doing a Shirobako rewatch and we were almost done with it. It felt weird continuing watching Shirobako with the site down. We also had movie nights and I won the last poll with Garden of Words, first time watching it, very well drawn and beautiful movie.
Did you make the PDF?

Check this book: http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371607474&sr=8-1&keywords=you+can+draw+in+30+days
Try to draw for a least half an hour everyday
I'm in the middle of this book: http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415. It's fun!
Haha yeah I was pretty bad at first too, but then I worked through this book which really helped:
https://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415
Highly recommended for anyone else looking to get into drawing...
Starting to learn some aspects of visual design will definitely assist you. I'd begin with learning to sketch. It's something that takes practice so getting started early will definitely help you. Grab a copy of this book and you'll be surprised how far you can make it in 30 days.
http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415
You could also join Lynda.com which is great to learn the basics of design. There's a UX course on there as well. One thing you'll find about this field is there is no shortage of material to learn.
I HIGHLY recommend this book, You Can Draw in 30 Days by Mark Kistler. This helps learn the basics in bite-sized pieces.

Qualcuno in questo stesso sub mi aveva consigliato questo: https://www.amazon.it/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415
Ma sono arrivato nemmeno a un terzo e poi per varie vicissitudini non ho più disegnato quindi non so dirti dove porta.
C'è l'anteprima da consultare sul suo sito se ti incuriosisce.
I bought a book by accident a year or so ago...

I'm not good yet, been drawing for only 6 months, but the best advice I can give is to not forget to have fun.
There is no point if you start doing lots of boring exercises if you end up getting bored and stop drawing, just focus on trying to do some drawing everyday, and have fun.
This is the book I started with: https://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw-30-Days/dp/0738212415/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=learn+to+draw+30+days&qid=1564793025&s=gateway&sr=8-1
It helped me a lot to stop getting nervous about getting nice drawings and to just have fun drawing.
Good luck!
