Leonardo da Vinci.
Da Vinci was left handed and drew in a special way. he used a technique called hatching and worked in rapidly drawn parallel lines, as he developed as an artist his lines become curved, to enhance 3-dimentional looks as can be seen on the horse.
"The Vitruvian Man (around 1490) is one of the most famous Leonardo da Vinci drawings. Done with pen and ink, it represents the perfect geometrical proportions of the human being (the text above and below the drawing is a very detailed description of such). Da Vinci based this exercise on a treatise by the early Roman architect Vitruvius."
For the home work set from an introduction to drawing, we had to create a still life drawing of something using the techniques we had learnt, I chose to draw my windowsill in my bedroom.
