Week 12 - Drawing on black paper and outdoor sketches
1) Main homework: please finish the drawings on the black paper as we talked in class on Monday.
2) Copy sketch:
Please select one of the following sketches to copy. From the first two architecture sketches, please pay attention to the size of the buildings in each image, and when you draw the buildings, you should avoid drawings too large, because you need to have space for landscape and the environment. Also, please take a close look at how to draw water (wave and reflection) and trees.
The third drawing is an interior sketch. If you choose to copy this one, please draw everthing on the same page, which means you can draw each interior setup small.
Congratulations on your improvements in free-hand drawing!! Enjoy!
3) Please do one of the graphic journals about your favorite model of a transportation tool (vehicle, motorcycle, or bicycle, etc.), and it doesn't have to be your belonging. I encourage you to use color on this one. As usual, you can draw anything you'd like in the other journal.
