Practicing with these simplified geometric forms can help inform your drawing in multiple ways. As Wendy describes in the video above, practicing on these neutral-color forms can help eliminate the complexity of working with color, and allow you to focus simply on the form and how the light source interacts with it. Secondly, because they are 3-dimensional and life-size to real subjects in nature, you can also position the forms as you like to work on perspective drawing and foreshortening. Explore these basic to expert-level drawing concepts in our full-length courses.
