Blind gesture encourages us to focus on movement of an object and the movement of shapes and value. By not looking at the paper we are forced to rely on observation. Blind contour forces us to focus on the shapes of the actual object and not the shapes that we think are there. It encourages us to train our hands to move with our eyes. Blind contour also requires us to observe the shifting shapes of value across an object. PERFROMANCE BASED 1. 2. Cross hatching single hatch diagonally tight cross hatching Circulism
