Okay, so I wanted to try out this “spoon draw” thing I saw online. It looked pretty simple, so I figured, why not?
Getting Started
First, I grabbed a regular kitchen spoon – nothing fancy, just your everyday silverware. Then, I found a piece of paper and a pencil. I cleared a spot on my desk, making sure I had enough room to move my hand around.
The Process
I held the spoon face down on the paper. I tried to keep my hand steady, but it’s harder than it looks! With my other hand, I started tracing around the spoon with the pencil. The first few times, the lines were all wobbly and didn’t really look like a spoon at all.
- Keep your hand steady.
- Trace the spoon slow.
I kept practicing, though. I flipped the spoon over and traced the other side, too. It actually helped to go a little slower. I also realized that pressing down a bit harder with the pencil made the lines clearer.
The Result
After a few tries, I finally got something that actually resembled a spoon! It wasn’t perfect, but it was definitely better than my first attempts. It’s kind of a fun little exercise, and it’s surprisingly relaxing. I can see why people like doing this – it’s a simple way to practice drawing and just kind of zone out for a bit.
