What are shapes?

Shapes are enclosed areas that are flat. Shapes, along with lines, can be thought of as the “bones” of an image. Almost every image can be reduced to its “bones” which are the lines and shapes that make-up the image. When I am drawing an image, I find the basic lines and shapes of that image and start there. Once I have the anatomy or “bones” of the image sketched out, I build on top of it by adding more details  ​and altering previous details. I will demonstrate this process soon so please stay tuned!

The resources in the photo are free and downloadable so that you can either complete them traditionally or digitally. The goal with this resource is the same as the, “What is a line” resource — draw a variety of shapes, both geometric and organic/freeform, until drawing these shapes becomes automatic!

Happy learning and creating! :)
