Blind Contour Seashell Drawing

A Blind Contour Drawing is extremely valuable in learning to SEE BETTER. This is not meant to be a great picture. It's a training exercise. See more about Blind Contour here. Go ahead, what have you got to lose? Give it a try yourself! And remember, everything is sketchable.

No Time To Sketch, You Say?

I am having guests arrive here this afternoon for a visit and dinner. I've got the roasts in the crock pots, but still have lots to do. That doesn't leave a lot of time for sketching, but you don't need a lot of time!! Today I did these gesture drawings in under 10 minutes. It is such a great drill and I don't do it enough. It's one of my favorite exercises at my workshops. See more of an explanation here .
