Demetri



You got some great drawing going on last Friday! Excellent job of overlapping the frog's legs and the truck's tires over the engine. You also did a great job of drawing accurate proportions (sizes of shapes compared to other shapes). You're gaining more control of your line work, too. View the reference picture of the truck. Are the proportions of the tires compared to the truck body drawn accurately? Keep practicing drawing big, using your pencil on its side and moving your arm while drawing. :-)

Ready for a drawing challenge? If you have time this week: Use lines, shapes, and tones (black and grays) to create an abstract drawing. Abstract means there aren't any people, places, or recognizable objects in your composition... just lines and shapes and tones. Draw big! Use the entire sheet of paper. Have fun using your imagination. Here are examples of abstract artwork for ideas to get you started: Click here

FYI: Here's a some info about outlines from a book I wrote: Click here
