Judith Shares Lesson 4, Part 1 Drawing -Two Tips for Accurate Drawing from Lfe from Richard Robinson

I know drawing from nature ...life can be Challenging so I am always
for excellent ideas to simplify the process.

This morning I found an excellent Tip from Richard Robinson on YouTube.

Wherever you are if you are not painting you can be drawing.  So Practice!

Here it goes.

First Way  Measure with your arm fully extended with brush or pencil perpendicular to you.

Hold your brush  or pencil out full length in front of you perpendicular to you.
Then turning your body toward the shape you want to draw tilt you brush (pencil) to follow the  angle of the edge of the form.

Without tilting your arm move your body to face the canvas or paper  concentrate and  continue holding the tilt of the brush (pencil) as you move toward your foundation.

Paint or draw that angle.

Second way  Think clock

Ask your self if the angle is at what clock time 1, 3,  10 etc.
Then draw  a line at that angle.

Watch this video to see this demonstrated.....



Make sure you read and watch the lesson and then practice on 5 drawings or paintings  with these techniques before you answer the questions for this lesson below.

Judith Reidy's Painting and Drawing Classes for the week

This is your opportunity for an extra class to finish your painting.  I want to encourage you also to use this class time as a make up class so that you can use up you 4 or 8 class packs within the allotted 5 or 10 week period.   Remember any student who can find two or more students can set up a floating class period with me once I confirm the time.  

Remember this Wednesday's regular class begins at 12:30 pm!

Happy Painting and Drawing,
