Directed drawing is a structured approach where students followed a step-by-step instruction from the teacher to create an artwork. This study investigated the effectiveness of directed drawing in teaching Grade 6 students at Alegria Elementary School to create cartoon characters. The researchers assessed the impact of directed drawing on students' art performance, their attitudes toward the method, and the challenges they encountered. Over a one-week lesson, students were introduced to key techniques, including line structures, shapes, and shading, which they applied to create their cartoon characters. A survey questionnaire measured improvements in skills like line structure, color schemes, and design, as well as students’ perceptions of the method’s usefulness and ease of use. The study also acknowledged that art was often not given as much time in the curriculum as it should have been, with directed drawing offering students more time to engage in the creative process. The results showed significant gains in creativity, attention to detail, confidence, and positive attitudes toward the method. Based on these findings, it was recommended that the school continue incorporating directed drawing, offer professional development for teachers, and create a supportive environment for artistic growth.
