DRAW AT THE ART MUSEUM

The next time you visit an art museum, be sure to take your sketchbook and a pencil/pen with you. Look for exotic, foreign subjects: African, Hindu, Asian – any artifacts that are not part of your culture. Be observant of line, space, rhythm, and exterior decoration and examine the object from as many angles as you can. Then draw the object showing value and detail – spend at least 15 minutes on this drawing.
