PORTRAITS OF 2-LEGGEDS and 4-LEGGEDS

Materials you will need: Paper, markers, crayons, craypas, or colored pencils, watch, phone or clock for keeping time.

 

Decide how long you want to work. Total time should be divisible by 4, 40 minutes to an hour is good. Take note of start time or set timer. You will work for 10 minutes if total is 40, 15 minutes if total is one hour, etc. Draw whatever you like, either from imagination or something you see in your surroundings. When your time is up, turn your paper 90° clockwise and work for the same increment of time. Create something entirely new, incorporating your original work. Repeat turning and drawing 2 more times. Make one final 90° turn without drawing. You should be back to the original position!
