Drawing Tip #4 - Beware of outline!

While drawing the contour of an object it is easy to make it look like it just an outline…a dark line. However, this doesn’t look very realistic, things don’t have an outline in the real world…everything just blend together. That is why it is important to look for areas on your drawing that looks like outline and softening them up by eraser or trying to blend the neighboring areas with the same tone.
