I love to draw cats.
Cats are really just a bunch of circles and triangles.
Meet Pekoe.
Pekoe is two circles, and two triangles.
Okay now.
To draw a chicken, you first draw a cat:
Next, you have to decide whether you really want to draw a chicken.
Whichever route you take, you're pretty much there.
Chickens are made up of a bunch of circles and triangles, just like cats.
Marky is, too, for that matter.
But don't tell him I said so.
You can do a quick sketch,
or you can spend some more time with that pencil.
Here's my elegant Daisy.
There. She's shaping up.
And next, we have a nice Lucy shape:
Don't forget the flip-side of the chicken :
What's up...?
If you're getting discouraged, look for an easier subject:
And if you're getting chicks this spring,
look for those circles:
Fun thing about chicks and Silkies ---there are no lines...
Just fluff.
Grab a pencil and give it a try! And then share your sketches on my Scratch and Peck Facebook Page.
Happy sketching!
