Life drawing is considered fundamental to most other types of art because it teaches the student to observe all aspects of their subject. The mental process[edit] The brain's visual system is large and complex, designed to reduce an image directly to a concept so that the person can then act on that concept. The eye sees the subject's nose.The visual system reduces the image to the concept "nose".The mind thinks, "What do I know about a nose? Thus, instead of drawing the shapes of the nose that the artist sees, the artist draws a mental icon for "nose", despite the fact that from most angles nostrils are not circular -- from many angles one nostril may even be totally obscured, but that won't stop the untrained artist from drawing it. In learning to draw from life, artists learn to ignore the conceptual aspects of their subjects so that they can concentrate on the visual details. Exercises[edit]
