This is as good an exercise as any to improve the co-ordination of eye, mind and hand. There are various ways that the best of our results can be an inspiration for enamelling. Rather than interpreting the complexities of a landscape, a portrait or a still-life, here we concentrate solely on each line at a time. Simple creative play just using a medium or fine marker pen, a drawing pad and a little peaceful time.
-
Start with a simple wavy line, drawn from left to right across the middle of your sheet.

-
From this central line work further lines above and below to create areas of darkness; where the lines lie close together, and lightness; where the spaces are wide.
