Contour of the Keys

A contour drawing focuses on the edges of the object. Today’s exercise was to draw the contour of your keys without lifting your pen. The focus is on developing confident lines.

Doing it in pen, in this case, a Pilot Prera fountain pen) allows me to focus on the lines; there is no erasing or “starting over.”

After I set the contours, I went back and added the details. Excellent enjoyable exercise to start a Saturday morning.
