To get rubbings off gravestones and such, how do I do it? What do I use? Charcoal sticks and wax paper??? Tracing paper? Vellum?
???

i live in a foreign country where i mostly understand the language. but my art teacher (who doesnt speak english) tries to teach me how to do that thing when you look at a still life (not drawn) and measure it and then draw it on your paper. its that thing that you see in the cartoons when they use there thumb and squint. my teacher says something like the length is the same as the width or something like that. and that i have to measure- i dont get it!!

if it helps: when she tries to explain it to me she usually puts a cloth as a background with a half open pot with fruit next to a little tiny pot with a long handle. i have to do it as a pencil or a charcoal drawing

please explain to me how to do it!!!!
if you need more details, because i dont know what else to write, write it in your answers(along with your answers)

I need to warn you, there is blood in this pic.
Took me three hours, and though it's a little plain, I just want to know if it's any good. =/

I was wondering what song that is that's playing in the background on the piano. I have no idea how to search for it so I was wondering if anyone just knew it.

well, I can't kick up my imagination I know how high it can go, I just need influence. So Do you know where to get this influence of art. not normal boring art, I mean Imaginative, extraordinary art. If it's possible, anime art{not lamestuff ! please}, and like anime and real life art mixed.

I'm a pretty creative person, and I sure as hell have a lot to express, but I can never seem to get really inspired to actually do anything. My drawing teacher dotes on me and raves about my ability, but it just frustrates me because I can never think of anything worthwhile to do. I'd really like to hone my skills (I took my first drawing class ever last spring), and I love to draw, but I seem to have a real mental block with getting started.

I'm sure there are other artists out there who go through this all the time, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it all.

A horizon line is definitely a horizontal line and that is the first one I thought of as well.

In drawing there are basically 9 lines with variations:

Describe a line in nature you see everyday.

Horizontal, vertical, diagonal,zigzag, dotted, dashed, curved, wavy,and jagged.

I already have the Horizion line, but I can't think of more.
