1. CONTOUR DRAWING
Continuous Line Drawing
Blind Contour Drawing

2. WHY DO IT??
Contour drawing helps emphasize coordination between your eye and hand.
It helps translate information about 3-D objects onto a 2-D surface.
These techniques help see the relationships among the parts of the object.

3. HOW DO WE DO IT? Use a drawing tool that will allow free flowing line.
Use unbroken line for the entire drawing.
Keep your drawing tool in constant contact with your paper.
Define both inside shapes and outside edges .
Vary the weight of your line.
Fill the entire surface of your paper.
Let shapes go off the page
Draw very SLOWLY!
