observation drawing

Observation drawing is the process of creating a visual representation by carefully looking at a subject and translating what you see onto paper. It involves attentive examination of details such as shape, proportion, texture, and light, rather than relying on memory or general impressions. This practice enhances your ability to see accurately and understand the subject’s form and structure. Observation drawings are often used as a foundation for learning, studying nature, or improving artistic skills by fostering patience and keen attention to detail.
