Goal
To develop the ability to draw figures as cartoons based on representation and the exploration of drawing
Steps
- Draw a line of action from heel to head as a starting point.
- Use the 30-second stick figure to define where the structure is. The limbs are seen as gesture line looking to capture the movement and placement in space.
- All shapes work with the relationship of straight to curve.
- Experiment with scale for shapes to develop cartooning.
- Stay aware of overlaps for placement in space.
