![]() The pressure of creating accurate drawings might create a sense of anxiety for some prospective Nursing and Allied Health practitioner. We even develop nursey rhyme to help our developing brains associate certain alphabets with specific images (A is for apple and B is for Ball). Like image comparison, associating words with object is one of the earliest and most effective learning methods during our elementary education. Therefore, a helpful exercise on proper observation and drawing of any human organ is to first compare its shape to another common organic or inorganic shape. Most organs in the human anatomy are typically organic in shapes. Most animate and inanimate objects found in nature often retain organic shapes, while most man-made objects often have inorganic shapes like squares, triangles, rectangles etc. To help establish some points of reference, always create a geometric shape like a square or rectangle and create your drawing within one of these shapes.Ī logical approach to creating a drawing of any object is to first associate that object to a basic organic or inorganic shape. This basic understanding provides visual reference which guide the drawing process. While a human kidney has an asymmetrical balance. For example: the human head is symmetrically balanced. Applying this understanding will help you with placement in your drawing exercises. All drawing should start as very thin, barely visible lines which explore the shape of the object you wish to draw several times before you finalize the outline or shape of the object.īalance: Symmetrical balance refers to equal placement and representation of objects on opposite sides of the same organ or structure, whole asymmetrical balance is the opposite. Visual perception: The weight of a line speaks to the thickness of the line. Visual perception, balance, scale and proportion and drawing: As the saying goes, ‘Practice make perfect.’ The process of repeating your drawing several times during practice, is how you develop muscle memory of that object. Drawing can help us learn the shape and concurs of an organ by develop muscle memory of how to draw that organ. It is important to note that drawing is as much a representational process as it is an explorative process. Depicting what we see in the natural world or three-dimensional images on a two-dimensional surface requires an understanding of specific image representational techniques. To draw an object accurately, the observer must develop the ability to perceive the object down to the smallest detail and the skill to represent the same object on a two-dimensional surface or piece of paper. Scientists use observation to collect and record data, which enables them to construct and test hypothesis and theories.’ If this argument holds merit, it makes sense for a Nursing and Allied Health practitioner to learn how to accurately perceive and document their observations. One might argue that good science is based partly on good observation. For professionals in the field of Nursing and Allied Health the ability to make quick, accurate observations and act upon those observations can make the difference between life and death for their patients. ![]() The development of basic drawing skills can be linked to a heighten sense of visual acuity. With so much reference to images in our daily interaction, it makes sense to develop some basic drawing skills to fully participate and appreciate our current 21st century visual revolution. Today, our daily activities are inundated with scores of still and moving images in the form of drawings, emoji, short memes, photographs and videos of friends and family, observations from nature, interesting objects, and places, and pictures of the food we eat. The ability to create and share still and moving images such as drawing, graphic illustrations, photographic reproduction and videos is one of the most important technological advancements of this age.
