Hello RHB!

Line it Up!

Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by the long list of techniques you feel you need to master in order to become an accomplished artist? The truth is, you’re probably already familiar with a lot of the basics - especially when it comes to contour drawing.

As a child, you probably drew pictures of your house or family. As a teen, you likely doodled in the margins of your school notebooks. As an adult, maybe you use sketches to explain (or grasp) new concepts. In each of these cases, you’ve employed contour drawing skills!

Our point? Your artistic goals are within your reach. This week’s lessons will build on the contouring techniques you already know, and help you develop new ones.
