Tuesdays are memory/imagination day in our 30 day creative challenge.
Drawing from memory can be a great way to keep your brain active and build up observational skills. Strictly speaking, if you’re drawing from observation, as soon as you look away from the subject and down at your paper, you’re drawing from memory. This exercise is just stretching that memory time out a bit. I’m going to use your fridge as your subject because the contents make an interesting self portrait and still life. Also, most of you are too environmentally conscious to leave your fridge door open while you draw, so it’s less likely that you’ll cheat. Ha!
Close the refrigerator, and draw as much as you can remember.
When you can’t remember enough to draw any more, then take another look inside the refrigerator. Do not draw while the refrigerator door is open.
Repeat until the drawing is completed.
