The Surface                                                                                           STUDY AND DESIGN

Next, study the surface contours using fine-

                    and broad-tipped felt-tip pens. For best

results, it is important to be bold and

brief. Draw firmly, fast, and with as

                    few strokes as possible. Build up

                    create  highlights.

Design Your Own

    Using what you have learned from the previous
     steps about the structures of your shoes, and
  about the use of pens, invent new designs from

                                                      your imagination. Start with fine outlines and
    progress to colored and textured surfaces.
    Modify your ideas by rotating the views.
