4TH GRADE CONTOUR LINE OBSERVATIONAL DRAWINGS

Students in 4^th grade used drawing pencils to create contour line observational sketches from a conch shell. They drew four contour line drawings of the same object: a continuous contour (one continuous line), blind contour (drawing without looking at the paper and observing the shell only), modified contour (a line drawing including texture and detail), and a cross contour (drawing lines that follow the surface of the shell’s form).
