Conclusion

Did you find that you might start to think differently about how you will approach drawing in the future? Are you more willing to seek out different techniques and ways of building your drawing skills? The goal of this short exercise was to expose you to the pleasures and tap into the artist within. Betty concludes her book with the following with a statement that is applicable and poignant by saying, “Drawing on the capabilities of the right side of your brain, develop your ability to see ever more deeply in to the nature of things. As you look at people and objects in your world, imagine that you are drawing them, and then you will see differently. You will see with an awakened eye, with the eye of the artist within you.”
