^ Development of the Sketch
To make a so-called “finished” drawing,
begin with the few lines that seem most im-
portant ; then add secondary lines, then put
in details and masses of black and white as
desired.
This does not apply of course to pure mass
drawing in which the masses of black and
white are put in directly without any outlines.
The figure in movement is based upon a
very few main lines which it is fascinating to
try and discover. Sometimes it can be reduced
to two or three lines to show main directions.
