Recall: PART 1: DOODLE WITH RED OR ORANGE
Recall: PART 2: DRAW WITH YOUR NON-DOMINANT HAND
Recall: PART 3: DRAW WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED
Recall: PART 4: EYES, NOSE, MOUTH
In this part, I want you to be aware of the WHOLE PAGE. It may seem strange, but I want you to draw a frame around the whole sheet. This makes your mind’s eye aware of the entire surface. Often we draw in the middle of the sheet, neglecting the rest, resulting in a floating drawing with no grounding. So if your sheet is an index card, or 12 by 12 feet- draw a frame around the exterior (just quick, no ruler):
Now draw a face in closeup filling the whole sheet using the techniques from part 4. Draw with a light china marker, then add details with black. Keep it simple. Relax. Have fun!
