Drawing Bikes

By R
I wanted to prove to the children that observation is very important when drawing. They wanted to draw some bike for a competition entry so first I asked them to draw a bike from memory.

Next we did a blind contour drawing looking only at the bike not the paper. This focuses the brain on observing.

Then we got down to a serious observational drawing. I think you can see that drawing from observation makes a much more accurate picture than drawing from memory.
