Nick



Nick, I know that drawing the negative space around the chair was challenging, but you stayed focused and did a great job! Nice job of drawing the contour lines that form the egret and the poppy. Keep practicing looking for where the negative space meets the positive space; where they meet shows the edges of the object that you're drawing. Hey Nick, push your skills to the next level; go for the challenge...



This week's drawing challenge:
Look around the classroom or in your back pack. Find an interesting object. It can be a stapler, a piece of your jewelry, or a watch; anything that you can set in front of you to draw. Take a moment to see the negative space surrounding the object... that's where you'll lightly draw the contour lines that show the edges of its form (like you did with the egret). You can add lines and patterns to show textures. HOT TIP: Start by lightly drawing basic shapes of the objects to help you get accurate proportions.
