Drawing circles and ellipses


The next lesson in the workbook on Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is on drawing ellipses in still life.  I have a picture of my set up, (except that I messed up the cloth when I move the book) and a picture of my drawing. It was interesting to see how the shadows ran on the various surfaces.   My drawing is off in that my tray runs off the page on one side.  I need to watch out for that so my drawings fit on the format that I have.  I was suprise that the hardest thing to draw was the napkin.  I had to redraw it 5 times to get it right.
The next lesson has to deal with drawing a person in profile.
