For this age group, I tend to choose human or animal faces it’s not only the perfect lesson during which to focus on a face, it’s also the only lesson in my Classical Conversations curriculum that lends itself to the focus necessary to do a face. My lesson is aimed for students 9-12 whom I will teach this autumn through Classical Conversations, a masters class. I drew only half for the purpose of this class. I drew this lion from a smaller image I found online. The longer I teach drawing, the more I am convinced this lesson is key, the one I hope no students are absent for! And all because it is the perfect place to teach artist hacks for achieving perfect size and proportions of the basic shapes (identified in lesson 1). I don’t think anyone can learn to draw well without the foundational lessons discovered in mirror image drawing.
