Sharpening Your Mind’s Eye

Memory Drawing

GAMBAR ARSITEKTUR 2017-2018

 Here are a few games to get you started

1. No Erasers
Allowed
Rather than do a new sketch
for each observation in these
exercises try them by drawing
over/correcting your original
sketch

2. The Photo Flip 

Study and simplify your chosen
image carefully but quickly, twenty
seconds tops.  Now, flip the photo
over and draw what you remember.

Try it again with the same photo,

this time study it for ten seconds.
How much more did you
remember?

3. Quick Sips 
Choose someone to draw. Observe
them carefully. Now draw what you
remember.

Wait a bit and you’ll find they’ll

return to the same pose again and
again. Draw them again. And
again. How do your sketches
compare?

4. Red Light
Green Light
When you’re a passenger in
a car and the car stops for a
red light observe what you
see out the window. When
the light turns green sketch
what you saw.

when you memorize a poem you are not just trying to memorize
just the shapes of the letters.“
