Skulls


Skulls are the cherry on the sundae. However, when drawing, they are at times not nearly as sweet. Skulls seem to be a spherical shape. A round shape that is smooth. However, there are bumps and curves from the different parts of the skull. The frontal bone is rounded but met by the medial line that separates the two halves of parietal bones.
Baby skulls have soft spots because when coming out of the womb they are not fused together. However, as they grow older the different sections come together to form the hard shell that protects the brain.
The skull also forms the facial structures for each individual-but that may come in the next blog.
