pencil – ART 104: Drawing I, Fall 2019

Draw my hand and foot

Drawing about my hand and foot, use Contour Line. This one need to wrote 10 time, in this time I thought it is boring to wrote same objects many time, so tired to make many types of hand poses. It was very interest to wrote. hoot can’t make some pose so I didn’t wrote many time.

Still life

Create a line drawing of the ladder and boxes still-life. This picture is important to make correct angle and size. Word draw is not important but if put it looks so good.

Ronnie’s 3rd Post

This drawing looks like a shoe on top of a shoe box. The object on the left appears to be behind the box. This drawing also looks like it was drawn with a pencil. Cross-hatching and contour lines are the concepts that are practiced in this drawing.

Ronnie’s 2nd Post

This is a drawing of someones hand. It looks like it was drawn using a pencil. The drawing contains contour lines to show the position and different features of the person’s hand.

Contour Line: Hand Studies

This drawing piece demonstrates the concept of coordinating contour lines into a realistic form art. The first thing I did was place my right hand in front of me and drew a basic form (quick sketch) of my hand and fingers. Then, from that sketch I went into more detail of the shape of my fingers, nails, and the signs I formed. Finally, I used the concept of contour lines as a form of creating texture within each hand shown as: creases and cracks throughout my hand.

Portrait: Trinity

This image is a portrait of my classmate, Trinity. For the basic face form I started out with an circle for a realistic , circular form of the cranium , and then I added in the chin. I used vinyl charcoal throughout this whole piece. The hardness of the vinyl charcoal around the eyes was to highlight her eye shape, and bring the piece to life. Creating the eyes was a challenging , but I started them with equidistant from the top of the head to the bottom of the chin (you can see the line of measurement). I carried on to thre nose . I started with a circle for the point of the nose, then extended the nose with a tent shape. To make the line less harsh I used a paper towel to lighten the ash of the charcoal. The corner of each lip had to be aligned with the middle of eachy line , and I added a shadow to the top lip to give a sense of plumpness. The last step was adding the hair and value to the face. It's important use the hair as a guide to her face structure and ears. Also, addimg value helped the picture look more realistic based on a face having different natural shadows( value) , and highlights little features in her face.

Still Life 2

This is a contour drawing of a box, wine bottle, vase, bowl, books, and a pumpkin.

Cross Hatch Still Life

A still life of a round bag, garlic, two books, a ball, a candle holder, dropper bottle, and mug. All cross-hatched for dimension and value.

I drew this still life of various objects from my room by first sketching out basic forms. I drew the objects on top of these basic forms and corrected them as I saw appropriate, using sighting and measuring techniques. Finally, as I decided that the forms were correct, I added cross-hatching to add dimension and inform the shape of the objects. I used vine charcoal and conte crayon for the basic shape and form of the objects, and finalized them with a graphite pencil.

Lunchbox Contours and Cross Hatching

I drew the same object three different times in this picture. In the top left corner of the page is a contour drawing of my lunch box, to the right of that is a cross contour, and under both is a cross hatching.

The lunchbox itself is divided into two rectangular prisms, both the same width but one with a shorter height than the first. The lunchbox is lying at an angle in the drawings with its black handle pointing down and to the left.

In the contour drawing, one can see the designs on top of the lunchbox, including a darkened curve on the left side of the top prism. A zipper lines the top of the prism underneath. Crinkles can be seen all along the lunchbox in the form of shadows.

In the cross contour, these crinkles are seen as three dimensional waves in a two dimensional grid; however one notices that the bottom prism is mostly flat on each face.

In the cross hatching, these waves are still visible, but appear more like shadows on the lunchbox. Nothing on this drawing was colored in based on local values.

These three pictures of my lunchbox are some of the best contours and cross hatching I’ve done for class so far.

For the contour drawing in the top left corner, I began by drawing the lunchbox without lifting my pencil. I don’t remember using any under drawings for this one. For the other two, however, I believe I did begin by drawing two rectangular prisms stacked on top of one another.

The cross contour drawing was the most difficult for me because it was hard to visualize the dips and rises in the fabric on a grid. If I were to draw this over again, I might spend a bit more time on the cross contour to make sure I have the topography correct.

Post #2 here we go

Black and white drawing a metal cube, 2 sets of chopsticks and a shot glass. The objects are left white with horizontal and vertical lin — Metal cube, chopsticks and shot glass represented with crosshatching and negative space shading

Cross hatching & Negative space

In this drawing the process of crosshatching and the emphasis of Negative space is used. Cross hatching is where lines are used to represent the shape of an object more, similar to Longitude and Latitude lines on a globe. Negative space is the gap between objects that create their own unique shapes.
In this piece I drew objects around my room emphasizing on their 3 dimensional shape as well as the 2 dimensional shapes created by the gaps between them.
