35. The first thing you have to do when learning to draw is learn to see things differently. Perception is the key! TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

36. We are going to take a very simple example and practice this right brain left brain switch. TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

37. The ideas w The exercises we will use are from the book, “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain”, by Betty Edwards. TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

38. Let’s begin with a simple line drawing. If you were to copy this line, your brain would automatically read the letters, therefore you would symbolize. TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

39. To more effectively draw this line, turn it upside down. Record the loops, curves and spaces. Try this on your paper. TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

40. Turn your paper around and check your work. Forcing yourself to look at something differently will help you draw. TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

41. Now we will practice this concept. Each person will sign their name on the strips of paper available at your table. We will trade signatures and practice drawing the signatures upside down. TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

42. You are probably wondering how this can help you draw better. TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

43. Today we will use this concept to reproduce drawings of old masters. After all, it’s just lines, loops and spaces! TEKS (a),(b)1ABC,2ABC,3A,4A

44. Upside-Down Drawing Rubric 100- mastery of concept 90- evidence of concept, immerging mastery 80- completed attempt of concept 50- incomplete or no evidence of concept
