FIVE MINUTE SKETCHES (20)
Assignment D.C.5.8
|
Directions: Draw a figure sketch in no more than five minutes. Do twenty of them. Try to draw these sketches from life, not from a photo. Don't make people sit still and pose, just draw them while they're talking, moving, working--whatever. Part of the challenge is trying to capture someone's gesture in an expressive way, even if that person is moving. You may have to take a snapshot in your mind and then put it on paper. Use a pen with fast strokes. Don't be too careful. Don't belabor the process. Just do it fast. The first few will turn out quite awkward, but then you'll start to make some really cool little sketches. Send me pictures! |
