What is "contour drawing"?

Contour drawing is a drawing technique where an artist creates a picture by drawing the outline of a subject without lifting the pencil, pen, or other tool from the paper. The focus is on capturing the edges and shapes of the subject, which helps to define its structure. This method emphasizes the overall shape and details, often resulting in a more expressive and flowing image. Contour drawing is helpful for improving skills in noticing and understanding the proportions and features of the subject.
