Lesson Details
Key learning points
- We can observe real objects carefully and make line drawings to record what we see.
- Artists might not create drawings that look exactly like the real objects they are observing.
- We can observe the different shapes of a flower and record those shapes through drawing using paper.
Common misconception
Drawings always have to look exactly like the object the artist is observing.
Drawing exercises focus more on artists using their eyes to carefully observe lines and shapes, rather than trying to create a drawing that looks exactly like the object.
Keywords
Observe - to look at something carefully and notice details about it
Line - a mark made by a moving point, such as a pencil or brush
