The document provides instructions for freehand sketching techniques including:
1) How to draw straight lines by establishing beginning and end points and swinging the pencil between them.
2) Methods for drawing small circles either starting with a square or center line and estimating the radius.
3) How to draw large circles by pivoting on the little finger at the center and rotating the paper.
4) Methods for drawing arcs starting with either a square or center line.

Straight Line 1. Hold the pencil naturally. 2. Spot the beginning and end points. 3. Swing the pencil back and forth between the points, barely touching the paper until the direction is clearly established. 4. Draw the line firmly with a free and easy wrist-and-arm motion
Horizontal line
Vertical line
Nearly vertical inclined line
Nearly horizontal inclined line
Small Circle Method 1 : Starting with a square 1. Lightly sketching the square and marking the mid-points. 2. Draw light diagonals and mark the estimated radius. 3. Draw the circle through the eight points. Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Small Circle Method 2 : Starting with center line 1. Lightly draw a center line. 2. Add light radial lines and mark the estimated radius. 3. Sketch the full circle. Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Large Circle 1. Place the little finger (or pencil s tip) at the center as a pivot, and set the pencil point at the radius-distance from the center. 2. Hold the hand in this position and rotate the paper.
