Drawing Organic Shapes with Depth and Perspective

• Objective: Learn to draw organic shapes with depth and perspective.
• Steps:
  1. Draw the First Type of Pancake:
     • Place a horizon line in the middle of the page.
     • Start by drawing an organic shape split by a middle line.
     • Freehand two isometric lines, intersect them, and create a rounded top like a roller coaster.
     • Draw the contours over the top to give the shape depth, using dotted lines for additional effect.
  2. Draw the Second Type of Shape:
     • Mimic the line from the first shape both above and below the horizon line.
     • Pay attention to the thinness of the ellipses as they approach the horizon.
     • Divide the shape with a line to see through it for better understanding.
  3. Practice Stacking Shapes:
     • Draw some shapes under and some over the horizon line.
     • Stack different shapes on top of each other to see how the perspective changes.
     • Always draw through the shape, which helps in understanding and visualizing the 3D aspect.
• Timing:
  • Spend 20 to 30 minutes per page, or more if you are a beginner.
  • Try different speeds: set a timer for 5 to 10 minutes on some pages to challenge your pace.
