Blindfold Drawings

Being blindfolded was a real challenge. Not being able to see what you are drawing made me nervous, mostly because I like everything to be just right. I was very hesitant about making a mark with my pencil because I was unsure of where the mark would be in accordance to everything else. One thing I thought was interesting though, was that it hindered my ability to picture the place I was thinking of more clearly. Instead of maybe just closing my eyes for a second to picture what I wanted to draw, and not being able to open my eyes to see my drawing, really made me picture more of my imagination, rather than what was on the paper. I felt the outcome of this drawing was not as bad as I expected, especially because we got to go over with more detail with our eyes opened.
