Blind Contour/Blind Drawing

• Part 1: Drawing through your senses. • Place your hand into the paper bag, feel the object in the

bag.• As you feel the object, draw it. • You can also draw from memory.

• Part 2: Take object out of the bag, place it on the table and draw it using a blind contour drawing technique. Keep your pencil on the paper, do not lift it, draw using one continuous line. Keep your eyes on the object and don’t look down at your paper!
