The Signature as an Access Line to Expressive Drawing.
Devlin-Gascard, Lorettann
Art Education, v50 n2 p39-44 Mar 1997
Examines the relationship between handwriting and early drawing. Maintains that often the quality of line in drawing becomes more reserved as the acquisition of the skill of writing-as-script becomes more fluid and automatic. Includes exercises that illustrate this process and use handwriting to explore creativity. (MJP)
