... FOREWORD ...
Learning to draw free hand can be much simplified by understanding the simple basic principles of the construction of the object and learning to see it that way. Just as we learn to draw the A, B, Cs and later to put them in an order that carries an idea or thought we learn to use lines to make shapes and forms that convey our impression of what we see or want to say in drawing. Lines and shapes are flat, but as we add the third dimension we have depth and form. The angular form which has definite sides, top and bottom is the simple basic form we use. The surfaces of these blocks are called planes.

These planes catch light and shade which lead to sound, constructive drawing and painting. First lets learn to draw a block accurately and learn to draw it in every position possible. Next apply this block to some object cut corners and add planes but dont lose the basic form. Details and textures follow but are less important than the big simple forms and planes that are so easy to shade or paint later on. The following pages show the use of this block method applied to a variety of subject matter plus some rules, laws and mechanics of picture building.
