Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The drawing class focused on human figures, which are more similar to animals in terms of complexity and structure than to fruit, landscapes, or houses. Therefore, skills learned from drawing human figures are more likely to transfer to drawing animals due to the shared challenge of capturing the complexity of living forms.
