MEMORY DRAWING.
Practice drawing from memory. Take a single figure, a simple subject, and, having drawn it two or three times from the original, lay both aside and then, by no aid except that of your memory, draw the object once more. Then compare it with the original and see how near it you have made the sketch. This is an interesting as well as a practically helpful exercise.
CORRECTING ERRORS.
The pupil will be benefited if he will frequently criticise his own work from his own viewpoint. Thus only is improvement possible.
It is a mistake to suppose that it is necessary to have separate instructions for drawing each form or even each group of forms. Certain fixed rules govern drawing, and, once these are mastered, they can be applied to almost anything that can be represented by pen, pencil or brush.
