blindfolded

Last year I was asked to work with Trenton's class on a drawing lesson. I am not a skilled draftsman by any stretch and was daunted by the task of teaching the students something I was not skilled at myself. So I opted to teach them to look at what they are drawing -- really look at the objects -- and NOT look at the paper. The sketches were really interesting and today I found a link to an old LIFE magazine blindfolded drawing test where they asked famous comic artists to sketch their most famous characters blindfolded...click HERE to check it out.
