This Week's Drawing Challenge: Weird Face Profile



Click on picture to enlarge view for your drawing.

This strange looking guy was sketched by Leonardo da Vinci. He used a drawing technique called cross-hatching to show the form of the man's head. To draw cross-hatched lines, you cross lines over others to create contours, textures, and shaded areas.

Start by printing the image of the man's profile. Draw a grid, like we did for last week's dog drawing, to help you draw correct proportions. See how many lines you can duplicate in your drawing, showing muscles and texture. Loosen up your sketching lines, and have fun!
