Upside Down
Today I drew upside down.
With the theme of breaking down my sketching skill development into small components, I explored why it is easier to sketch abstract items vs. real things. For example, it was daunting to see a man sitting as the object I needed to draw, but turning it upside down and focusing on the ABCs of drawing made it more accessible.
I’m happy with the results and found it much easier to focus on the lines, curves, and angles rather than a mouth, eyes, and arms. I knew what it was, but psychologically it was much more manageable.
