Have no fear, I would NEVER, EVER attempt to draw a picture of ANYTHING!!!!
I was just repeating what I have heard about how to go about drawing a
picture of a human face. I was horrible at it in school and am still
horrible at it.  A friend once showed me how to draw a picture of a horse's
head and I could do one that was actually recognizable, oh yes, and a tree
with branches--no leaves, just branches, so my trees are all deciduous in
winter.  Once there was one of those drawing class things on PBS and I used
to watch it, one day she was drawing a bowl of fruit so I decided to try
it.  I had this little bitty picture in the corner of the piece of paper,
but it did almost look like fruit in a bowl.  Ruth
