Continuous Line Drawings (Squiggle Drawings) of Sticks

Our “Making Feely drawings exercise” was a great base for the next part of our Drawing Workshop for ages 6 to 10, which was to make a continuous line drawing of larger twigs and branches.

Many of the children in this group had just joined the class (with others having attended for the past year), but whatever level of experience, continuous line drawings are a very useful way to get children (and adults) to tune into their subject matter, and quieten ready for drawing.
