9/27/12 2D Design

Today's Class- Tonight we opened with a group critique of the stipple drawings, which were also graded and returned.  The rest of the class period was devoted to working on our second graded project of the semester, our final line drawing.

How to make this up-  For the subject you will have to provide a large leafy potted plant.  You will do a pencil line drawing of the plant at 100% scale, as much of it will fit on a page in your 18"x 24" pad, like the one shown above.  Full instructions and additional student examples can be found here.

This is a graded project and should be completed as soon as possible to receive partial credit.

Homework- Nothing new, but those who still owe me either the stipple drawing or the plant drawing should get them done as soon as possible.  The longer the delay, the fewer points they will be worth.

For next class 10/4/12-  We will finish the basic drawing portion of the semester with an exercise in value drawing.  Bring your 18" x 24" pad, either charcoal or black conte crayon, appropriate eraser, and any blending tools you might like, along with spray fixative if you have it.
