<p> Upside-Down Drawing Purpose: Reduce the conflict between your right and left brain. If you are not thinking about drawing an eye your left brain will not try to draw its symbol for the eye, allowing your right brain to draw what it is really seeing. Instructions: Choose one of the Roy Lichtenstein art works and glue it upside down in your sketchbook. Draw a slightly larger square or rectangle below the picture. (If you have a rectangle try multiplying the length of each side by 1.3 to get a slightly larger frame.) Draw cross hairs to help you sight where shapes and lines will go. (Cross hairs are marks drawn to show where the middle of the drawing surface is.) Start with an outer line or shape and really look at where it is in relation to the edge of the drawing, other lines and shapes in the picture. Move from line to adjacent line to adjacent space or shape. Do not turn the picture the right side up until you are done-your copy will also be drawn upside-down.</p><p>Roy Lichtenstein Roy Lichtenstein (October 27, 1923 – September 29, 1997) was a prominent American pop artist. During the 1960s he painted large comic style paintings that were humorous but also hard edged as they were a satirical view of popular culture. Pop art is a style of art that interprets or comments on popular celebrities, movies, food, brands and trends of our culture. While Lichtenstein was a professor in Ohio he traveled often to New York where he shared ideas with Andy Warhol. </p><p>Upside-Down Drawing Purpose: Reduce the conflict between your right and left brain.
