Continuous Line Drawing

Created on October 21, 2017 by OneToughCookie

1. Select a photo to draw from magazines, books or the internet.

2. Once you've chosen your subject place pen to paper and begin drawing your subject, making sure not to lift the pen off the page until the drawing is complete. (To help create shadows and line weight go over the same area multiple times.)

This makes a great drawing exercise before starting any project or to help get out of an art block.
