When creating this drawing, the artist recognized the basic shapes in this figure in order to

(1 point)
confuse the eye, making it difficult to
draw.
O record the various parts of the body
accurately.
create a change in value.
O ignore proportion and record the shape.

record the various parts of the body accurately.

The correct answer is:

(2 points) Record the various parts of the body accurately.

To find the answer to this question, we need to carefully read and understand each option.

Option 1: "Confuse the eye, making it difficult to draw." This does not seem to be a reasonable approach for an artist. Artists generally aim to communicate visually and not confuse the viewer or themselves.

Option 2: "Record the various parts of the body accurately." This seems valid as recognizing basic shapes can help an artist break down complex subject matter, such as the human body, into simpler and more manageable forms. By doing so, they can accurately depict the various parts of the body.

Option 3: "Create a change in value." While recognizing basic shapes can be a starting point for determining light and shadow areas (value) in a drawing, it does not directly align with the idea of changing value as described in this option.

Option 4: "Ignore proportion and record the shape." This option presents an incorrect understanding of the purpose of recognizing basic shapes. Recognizing basic shapes helps artists understand proportion and accurately represent the shapes in their drawings, rather than ignoring proportion.

Based on the analysis, the most appropriate answer would be Option 2: "Record the various parts of the body accurately."
