Countour Shoe Drawing Project

I thought this project was really intresting to do because you had to do countour lines. A countour line is a continous line drawn to show all surface ridges and edges. We were told to draw countour lines of someones shoe at our table, in the end my shoe was the one that was chosen to be drawn. I thought that this project is a lot harder than it looks because you can not lift the pen when you are drawing and some people may just think this drawing is just an outline, but it is not. The class had practice with these countour drawings, and what we did was we chose to do countour drawings of our hands. The first 3 drawings we did, we were told not to look at our paper and just try and draw our hand without lifting the pen. Our pen drawing was suppose to go the same rate as our eyes looking at our hands. And each one of these drawings are suppose to get better along the way. Then afterwards we could look at our paper and try to draw our hand but we still couldnt lift our pen. I thought I made a big improvement from when I started to when I finished. This was a really creative project and I hope there is more to come.
