Sketchbook Entry | Upside Down Caricature

Doc Cam On! Demonstrating the Upside Down Caricature line drawing. The Art Students focus on the shapes and direction of the lines, using space, perspective, and proportion. It's more challenging than it looks. This practice will allow the students to learn observational techniques. Each drawing will be unique, even though the caricature is the same exact drawing.
