LESSON NO. 2.

To continue, use the foundation of Lesson No. 1, and continue with dividing the opposite space between 1 and 2, which makes 3, and then divide the space between 1 and 3, which make 4, and cross lines from 4 to 5 and 3 to 6. These lines will be used for the shoulder and neck space.

Now divide the space between 1 and 7, which makes 8 and draw a straight line down to 11. Now again divide the space from 7 to 8, which makes 9, and draw a line from 9 to 10.

Note that the two lines at 7 and 9 are raised up a ¼ of an inch. These are for preparing for the neck part Note that this particular lesson described on the diagram is preparing a front view, whereby the bust will appear to the right-hand side and therefore watch carefully the diagram. Follow diagram on top.
