The Basics

Bonus Drills

Although practicing our lines, curves, and circles are important, not everything we will draw will rely solely on those simple lines. There are times when variation and texture can be instilled in other ways using various shapes and patterns. We will be getting into this more deeply in future assignments, but for right now, you can start experimenting with simple shapes and patterns.

Exercise Nine

Using the Over Laying method, practice drawing some simple shapes that will help build simple textures in future exercises. Here we are practicing triangles, squares, rectangles, twirls, and short lines. Good luck!
