Hatching

This exercise was done by drawing an object based on lines. I did a light sketch of the figure as a whole, then created thin lines to show the shape and form. There is also little cross hatching done to show where one line ends and another begins. I found it difficult to make the curves in the bottom cushion of the couch look realistic as well and showing the depth of the object as you view it from front to back.

Contour of Teaching Assistants

I find blind contours to be somewhat challenging because it forces you to slow down your drawing and requires complete concentration of hand-eye coordination. This exercise required drawing our Teaching Assistants who sat back to back in a chair and the students drawing them, contour style.

I had the most trouble with facial features and determining where to stop drawing the hair on each model. However, I also find this very interesting because it creates a completely different image from what was originally given.

Blind Contour of "Place for a Leaf"

This drawing was based on the final product of "A place for a leaf" Project. It required drawing our project under the style of blind contour. I drew my project at different angles and views to show both the difference and communality between them.

Contour of Bike

This contour of an upside down bike was both very difficult and time consuming. The process I took in creating this was to start in what seemed to be the easiest place which i presumed to be the center where the bike creates a triangle and branches out to different sections of the bike. I found the most difficult thing to draw here are the circles for the tires and the spokes within the tire frame.

Blind Contour of Hand

Blind Contour presents itself as an effective training aid or discipline. The method requires fixing your eyes on the outline of the model or object and drawing the contour very slowly in a steady creating a continuous line without lifting the pencil or looking at the paper. You may look at the paper to place an internal feature, but once you begin to draw it, you cannot glance down, yet it follows the same procedure as for the outline.

Upside Down Drawing

This drawing forced me to not only draw what I am seeing, but draw and image based on lines. The original handout for this assignment was this image upside down and the task required me to re-create it as it is. I found this to be somewhat difficult because it was hard to focus on the line content of this image. I had to adjust to a different style and concentration in order to achieve the correct outcome.

Sketch of Studio Desk

This Drawing exercise is a warm -up. We were required to draw a our studio desk which required analyzing it from a certain angle and perspective in order to achieve a desired look. I approached this assignment by specifying which angle to start with and using the eye to pencil coordination to determine where the actual angle and lines measure up.
