You will need:
-Razor-point pen/marker (Pigma micron etc.)
-Paper.
-Household items/sentimental objects.
The first challenge involves selecting a few items around the house and creating a still life from them.
Using
a razor-point pen (I used the Pigma Micron 01), we should draw our
still life in a continuous line, only removing the pen from the paper
occasionally. Mistakes are fine, just get through it!
There's
also a variation that involves trying a drawing of someone in your home-
but I'm the only human in my home, and my cats get too excitable if
they see that I'm trying to draw them.. Maybe I'll give it a try
sometime though.
Lawson recommends that we should focus on the
object that we're drawing, rather than the actual drawing. It's an
observation exercise, so let the pen move more freely as you observe
shape, form, textures and patters. (I forgot this part so I feel like my
drawing might have come out a little tighter than intended.)
If
you want a more thorough version, check out the book- I don't want to
plagiarize it word-for-word, rather I'd like to attempt the challenge
myself firstly, then put the lesson into my own words and add my own
experience.
