Project 4:(Line) Contour Drawing Still-Life





Warm up: Blind Contour Still Life









Warm up: Blind Contour Hands






You will set up a Still-life consisting of: 1 shoe that is white in color and with flat shoe laces (the shoe should have some character to it), two socks, an INTERESTING HOUSEHOLD ITEM, and an item to be provided by me. This will be on a day of your choosing and I must be notified so that I can grade the item the day of.
1. You will do two blind contour drawings of your hand on 8.5x11 paper and SAVE these to go along with the drawing.
2. You will do four additional warm-up blind contour drawings on an 11x17 sheet of paper.
3. YOU MUST ENSURE PROPER TOOL USE AND LINE QUALITY.
4. You will set up your still-life in a way that is interesting and provides good contour/cross contour.
5. IT IS VITAL THAT YOU DO THIS PROPERLY SO THAT YOUR HAND IS MERELY AN EXTENSION OF YOUR EYE.
6. You will do TWO 40 MINUTE drawings of the same still-life on 11x17 paper with micron pens.
7. THIS IS A CONTOUR DRAWING SO ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS IMPORTANT…AND NO SHADING AT ALL.
8. You must ensure that you take care of your work for the duration.
