WHAT'S NEW...
 
New Lessons Your Art Students Will Love!

Upside Down Door Knob

Running time 31 Minutes

  • Students draw a cartoon door knob upside down, copying each line, shape and space as accurately as possible. When they have finished they turn their papers right side up and are usually very surprised to see how great their door knob looks.

  • Students are then free to add cartoon arms and legs and a fun background.

  • This lesson is one of the students’ favorites. Drawing the door knob upside down helps the student to access the right side of his brain and see things exactly as they are. The logical left brain knows too much about things and tries to tell the artist what SHOULD be there instead of seeing what IS there.
