THow to draw
--_
In the first section I have reproduced the way
in which I help people to draw more effectively.
The level is higher than you need for copying
the drawings in this book. However, I have
decided to put it at the beginning of the book
becauseyou need basic help even for copying.
Essentially, in order to copy (i.e. without
photocopying!) you must:
1 judge proportions (is a line is longer or shorter
than another, or a shape thicker or thinner);
2 judge the angle of the lines (whether they are
lines or the edgesof shapes).
These are the main things. However, it will
also help you to study how I draw solid people.
When you learn my approach you will be able
to copy my solid people much more easily.
Similarly with the settings: when you learn
how I have avoided using perspective,you
will be able to copy them much more easily.
So, please,even if you are only going to copy
the pictures in this book (and not produce your
own), do look through this first section.
Thanks.

Card or paper
=-J
-
Materials and techniques
--t
E--l
L-.
Teachers' flash cards should certainly be on
card and not paper. Card lasts longer and is
easier to handle. For pupils it may be as cheap
to use duplicated sheets rather than card. In
Britain it is possible to get cheap or free offcuts
of paper and card from printing houses.
Adhesives
-A
,4t
Sometimes you may want to stick thin paper to
card. You can:
I use a rubber baseci glue which does not
wrinkle the paper. Professionaldesignersdo
this.
2 use a paste. If you use a paste put it on the
thin paper and leave the paper to expand for
some time before putting it onto the card.
Photocopying
1 Don't go to the edge of your paper.
2 Don't use larger areas of black than your
machine can reproduce.
3 If you stick smaller piecesof paper down so
that the levels are different put typist's white
opaque along the edges to remove the shadowed line.
Grids
To give a senseof organisation to your text and
pictures arrange them within a frame and align
their edges. A frame (in British English - a
'grid')
may be made of one, two or even more
columns.
Tracing
If your top piece of paper is too thick for you to
see the image clearly put them both againsta
window pane and copy it like that.
How big?
Letters should be about two cms high. But
guiding rules like this are not very useful. Try a
sample - see what it looks like from the back of
the class.
Colour
It is so tempiing to use lots of bright coloursin
order to please the students. Much better to
choose colours for other purposes:
1 to make an object more recognisable if the
shape is rather ordinary, for example, an
orange;
2 to direct attention to something, particularly
if it is small within a picture, for example,
one person giving another a present. The
people could be drawn in black line and the
present in a colour;
3 to express feelings and to make the picture
look nice!

If you think A is wider and D is longerthen you canjudge anglesand proportions
and that is all you need for copyingthe drawingsin this book. Indeed,it is the basic
skill you need for doing objectivedrawingsof the highestorder.

How to draw
stickpeople
We canonly interpret a stickperson's
actionsif he or shehas the sameessential
featuresof a'real' person;so you must
baseyour drawingson how peoplelook
and move.The 'real'peopleyou copy
could be you (yourself,actingout the
,(g
position and copying each bit, starting
with the body) or a friend or someone in
a photo.
Most artists study a photograph or a
model if they are drawing something for
the first time.

Here are someactionsto copy. Study the
anglesof the body, then the arms and

comparingit with eithera verticalor

mouth turns down.
The eyebrows are
now slightly
concave- this gives
that look of pain.
The mouth is now
longer and weaker
and further down.
Eyebrows still more
concave and further
apart.The mouth,
down-tumed, is
weakly down more
on one side.
Now the head is
back. The brows
are nearer the
eyes due to the
concentration
of the outburst.
The mouth must

The eyebrows now
