It was because of this drawing that I ended up having my first art teaching assignment. I was asked to teach a class of Grade Six students on how I did my drawing of the swan.
I had them start by placing the water line followed by doing the numeral 2 to place the top of the swan on the paper.
Next, they put a ball at the start of the number for the head and added a triangle for the bill.
To slightly below the centre of the ball (head) they drew the bottom of the neck and came slightly forward and brought the chest down to the waterline.
From there I extended the bottom of the two slightly upward for the top of the tail.
Below that we put in a curved line for the bottom of the tail and brought it down to the waterline.
Just back of the neck we put in the wing and added the large feathers.
Lastly, the top of the leg was put in slightly above the waterline.
