Excellent control of your pencil while shading the negative space around the chair and egret, Arianna! You stayed focused on drawing the edges that form the egret's body, neck, and head. You pulled it all together nicely to draw really accurate contour lines of the poppy. During the weeks ahead, practice looking for where the negative space and positive space meet; where they meet shows the edges of the object that you're drawing. Really, REALLY concentrate on drawing contour lines in this week's 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.
