NOTE

FREEHAND SKETCHING 1.

Freehand sketching is a form of drawing where the artist creates an image without the use of guiding tools or aids, such as rulers or templates. Instead, the artist relies on their hand-eye coordination and observational skills to produce a spontaneous and often expressive representation of an object, scene, or idea.

Techniques of Drawing Lines, Curves, Circles and Irregular.

The following are steps for drawing lines, curves, circles, and irregular shapes:

1. Drawing Straight Lines:

  

- Choose a starting point.

   - Visualize the direction of the line.

   - Hold your drawing tool comfortably.

   - Move your hand steadily to draw the line.

   - Practice controlling the length and straightness.

2. Drawing Curves:

 

  - Start with a chosen point.

   - Envision the curve's shape and direction.

   - Hold the drawing tool comfortably.

   - Begin drawing slowly and smoothly.

   - Experiment with pressure for different curve intensities.

   - Practice various curve shapes and sizes.

3. Drawing Circles:

  

- Place the center point and draw the circumference.

   - Maintain a steady hand movement.

   - Adjust pressure for a consistent circle.

4. Drawing Irregular Shapes:

   - Break down the shape into basic lines and curves.

   - Start with a simple form as a base.

   - Connect lines and curves smoothly.

   - Visualize the overall shape.

   - Adjust as needed during the process.

   - Practice combining different elements.

NOTE: Practice regularly, experiment with different techniques and refine your skills over time.
