How to draw Dance by Henri Matisse
step-1
GRID STEP. You can print out the base construction lines and start drawing on tracing paper or you can draw the grid layout yourself using the following steps.
• Draw the first oval from the top right near the centre. • Draw 1 horizontal line above the top head. Draw another horizontal line much closer above it. • Draw 1 horizontal line below this head. Add 9 horizontal lines from the bottom equal in height to this head. • To the left and right of this head draw one vertical line each. From them to the sides draw: -4 vertical lines equal to the width of the head to the right; -11 vertical lines equal to the width of the head to the left. • After that, continue drawing the head: -on the second horizontal line from the top draw the head so that the seventh vertical line from the left crosses it in the centre; -one line below, draw the head so that it is between the fourth and fifth vertical line from the left; -between the fifth and sixth horizontal lines from the bottom, draw another head. Define so that its centre is intersected by the ninth vertical line from the left; -position the last head so that the seventh horizontal line from the bottom and the second vertical line from the right intersect it in the centre.
