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.

Drypoint, the art of scratching a shiny surface with a pointy thing, seemed to me to be an easy form of printmaking because I can draw with said pointy thing, and I don’t need to use any chemicals or excessive equipment. Honestly, though I thought I should give it a try, I really thought …
I met Keith Pfeiffer in one of the last classes I taught in person, before the quarantine. The class was on color and light. We practiced producing a sensation of light by replacing white with color (above), how to get vibration from complementary hues, vibrant vs neutral effects, and how to dim or compress the …
30SAL Challenge: Right Ear
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.
Challenge: draw your other ear
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).
