Blind Contour Drawings

When musicians are performing solos, the audience or viewer is supposed to pay attention to the sound emitted by their instruments. When people talk or give presentations to a group, the group is supposed to pay attention to the presenters' voices and ideas. While I drew each of these line blind contours I was ignoring the musicians' sound and presenters' voices and ideas. I blocked everything out except their physical forms, which deviated from what I was required to do by my orchestra directors and teachers at the time.
