Sketching lesson 2 - Those pesky angles!


Top Art Tip 2 -  A great way of checking angles is to hold up your pencil horizontally or vertically against the photo, still life, figure or landscape you are drawing. This helps you to judge the angle against the pencil. If necessary, lightly draw a horizontal or vertical line on your drawing and then the line at the correct angle.


If you are drawing from a photo, use the horizontal and vertical edges of the photo to judge angles against.
