Two Fine Points of Drawing

This post is a reminder of a couple of sometimes overlooked niceties of drawing.  One is indicating, here and there, the thickness of something thin.  For illustration I chose a lower eyelid, the wire frame of a pair of glasses and a shirt collar.

 
 




Another is the follow-through/wrap-around of a form which girds another form, such as a sleeve around an arm or a collar around a neck.







Such niceties may be ignored, but the artist should know what he is ignoring.
