Try it yourself.
Then invite someone in.

Begin with your own experience.

Try the exercise yourself first. Notice how you approach the lines, what feels unfamiliar and what you want to say about the experience. You don’t need a dramatic result or a perfect drawing to have something honest to share.

Show the steps. Leave room for their experience.

Explain how to leave the reference upside down and copy small lines and spaces. Invite the other person to choose a comfortable pace, stop when they want and describe what they notice. Their observations may be different from yours.

Keep it gentle with children.

Use a simple reference and let the child try one shape, draw alongside you or watch. Skip the time target. Ask an open question such as “What did you notice?” and let their answer be enough.

Bring the reflection back to their day.

For an adult working on a question, invite them to return to it after drawing. What possibilities do they see now? What stayed the same? The goal is to leave space to explore, without requiring a particular answer.
