First day in college Drawing
02/08/2008 20:33:00 / other
I have been chuckling about my first day in Intro to Drawing. The instructor had set up a still life (I hate still lifes) and we were expected to draw it. I think this was so she could get an assessment on our drawing skills. So I started to draw, and soon was aware of the instructor standing behind me watching, then she would leave and return, and this pattern went on for a while. All the while I was wondering what was up. I finally decided that this was going to be reminiscent of my short lived career in singing - I was told to hum! Finally, she said to me, "In all the years of teaching drawing I have never seen anyone start a drawing like you just did" (What I had done was ingnored the placement of the objects and just drawn what I will call the skyline of the objects. I assumed that was how it was done, as this was the only way I could figure out how to get everything in its right place). My comment to her was, "how else do you do it." She quietly told me to walk around and see how everyone else was doing it. I went back to my method.
