STEP #1 What is a continuous contour line? It is an edge or an outline of an object. The purpose of contour line drawings is to become more aware of the outlines of forms and figures. Continuous means you will not lift your pen. You will not be able to erase.
STEP #2 Watch videos below for an example on how you will draw you hand gestures.
STEP #3 You will look at yourself in the mirror and draw yourself with a continuous line. Do not lift your pen! You are drawing in RIGHT BRAIN MODE. You will not make any assumptions. Do not use left brain memorized symbols. It is just lines and shapes not a face. Draw exactly what you see. You can listen to classical music or instrumental music, thats music without lyrics. Remember 1 ear bud only. Make sure to include all details. pupil, eyelids, eyelashes, birthmarks.. You can overlap your lines. Dont worry about it looking realistic. The point is to focus on the the object not the end result. The face is meant to look funny. FOLLOW THE ORDER BELOW when drawing. DRAW BIG!
STEP #4 When you are finished add some color. Write your name and period # on the front of the paper.
