+**Construction** in drawing refers to the process of blocking in a complicated object/figure/scene by breaking it down to a combination of simple volumes, e.g. spheres, cuboids, cylinders, cones and pyramids.
+Construction, when used alone, often leads to very stiff, mechanical looking results. Results will appear more dynamic if construction is used as a second step on top of [[gesture]] drawing.
+In the example here, construction was done in a [[Perspective Projection]] without gesture.
