Contour Line Drawings
Blind contour line drawings are done without looking at the paper. The eye is focused on the subject
and follows the changing structural planes of the object while the hand follows with the pencil on paper. These drawings are intended as exercises for the eye, and they are usually distorted and sometimes even unrecognizable.
In a partial blind contour drawing, you may look at the paper after you have
drawn each part of the object.
These are examples of the 6th graders’partial blind contour drawings.
