Linda Acrey creates a CONTOUR drawing by drawing with two hands SIMULTANEOUSLY and BACKWARDS
and...all the while she does NOT look at the paper
Contour drawing is an exercise that art students practice to help develope their eye and hand cordination. The artist looks at the subject ONLY... NOT the paper.. The artist eyes follow the outline of the subject while their hand draws the outline onto the paper. Linda Acrey takes this exercise a step further. She uses both hands AND By standing behind the paper, she is drawing BACKWARDS with both hands SIMULTANEOUSLY! |
