Lesson 1.2: Drawing a still life
Next we were told to draw using our other hand, in my case my left, and this time to try and see where the lines were connected, the empty space, and to imagine a grid placed over the still life so we could see where objects lined up.
As you can see I started too far over on the left, so its in two parts.
Its amazing how much clearer you can breakdown the still life into lines when you use your other hand. Things start to look more defined and I started to distance myself more from the view, and pick out lines and objects and draw them as they appeared, not as my brain had wanted to translate them.
