Yesterday’s challenge was to draw your left ear without looking at it. Sunday is observation day, so today the challenge is to draw your right ear, this time from observation.
Set up mirrors, snap a picture, zoom yourself, whatever it takes to get a look at that lobe. The first part is the drawing. The second, an optional bonus challenge, is to make a trace monotype with your drawing (see yesterday’s challenge for instructions on how to make a trace monotype).
If you prefer not to draw, paint, print, or collage, then sculpt your ear using beetle backs and sardine cans.
