In-depth Explanations with Actionable Insights:
Understanding Basic Shapes and Forms: Every drawing starts with simple shapes. By breaking down complex subjects into basic shapes, artists can tackle intricate drawings more easily. Practice by sketching everyday objects and identifying the geometric shapes that form their structure.
Actionable Insight: Take a photo of a still life setup. On tracing paper over the photo, outline the basic shapes that make up the objects. Repeat this exercise by drawing freehand to train your eye to simplify complex forms.
Control of Line Quality: The variation of line ...
