GODEY'S COURSE OF LESSONS IN DRAWING.
LESSON V.
The outline of the stem and the curve of the scroll of Fig. 54 must first be drawn, the distances and proportions of the various parts being carefully observed. In sketching the scroll in Fig. 55, the eye alone will be the guide, the directions and distances of the various parts being marked off before filling in the details.
The method of drawing the rosette forming part of the scroll shown in Fig. 57 is displayed in Fig. 56, the circle being drawn first.
In sketching Fig. 58, the direction of the curve must first be ascertained, its due proportions noted, thereafter filling in the details.
The stem, leaves, flower, and buds of the wall-flower in Fig. 59 will afford an interesting example for practice at this stage of progress; the stem, its length and direction, should first be drawn, the position of the leaves, &c. marked thereon, and the details thereafter filled in.
