ORIGINAL DRAWING LESSON

Bicycle

The process of drawing a bicycle is a graceful dance of lines, where every detail finds its harmony and rhythm. It's important to feel the balance of the structure: the smooth curves of the frame, the roundness of the wheels, the intricacy of the spokes — everything should be well thought out.
