Each drawing should use the same composition and should contain a fair amount of your object. You will need to think of the 6 drawings in relation to each other, whereby the first drawing describes your object with the least amount of information. This will be the Implied Line drawing and it will be the most minimal depiction of your object and will highlight the composition you have created. As you go down the list of different types of line, your image will become more developed, until it looks rendered and volumetric with the Hatching/Cross Hatching. We will begin the project by doing some practice drawings on sketch paper, using a viewfinder to determine the best composition. When ready, make your final drawing on the white Bristol board. Do this drawing first in pencil and then go over it with sharpiesbe sure to erase pencil lines. Neatly mount all 6 drawings onto 3 pieces of black posterboard/matboard with an even border (2 per page). Make sure the surface you are mounting your drawings to will fit into the plastic sleeves of your portfolio (8 x 10). Supplies: Your choice of personal item to draw Sketch or printer paper for thumbnails White Bristol board Black posterboard or matboard Graphite pencil and Eraser Ruler Glue-stick Sharpie (fine, ultra-fine) or Micron pens
Line Styles:
Implied: Implied line is a line that is suggested by the positions of shapes or objects within a design. Implied line should be thought of in terms of composition and is used to carry the viewers eye around the picture plane.
Lost and Found Contour: A description of a form where an object is revealed through distinct contours in some areas, while other edges simply vanish or dissolve into the ground. The goal with this style of line work is to give enough information that we can tell what the object is, but not too much that we cant tell the difference between it and the contour drawing. Lost and Found Contour can be a more abstract/artistic style of drawing.
Contour: A line that describes the edge of a form and suggests three-dimensional volume. Contour line creates a clean, precise and simple outline drawing of an object.
Gestural: A vigorous line that captures movement and the overall orientation of an object, rather than describing it in detail. Gestural line is often used to capture the posture or motion of a figure.
Calligraphic: A flowing line that generally varies in thickness and velocity. Calligraphic line is a more expressive style of drawing.
Hatching or Cross Hatching: A technique that creates a sense of value through a series of parallel lines in order to suggest form or volume. Hatching uses one network of parallel lines, where Cross Hatching uses two or more networks to create value.
