Basic 101: Class1 - Drawing Basics

Introduction

Welcome to Basics 101. I have to warn you that these first few sessions will be boring but they will pay off for y
the projects and take advantage of the companion guest lecture series.

Each class will be divided into three sections.:

1. I will present the subject and do a demonstration. You may either follow the demonstration or improvise one
as long as you stay on track for the class.

2.. You will present the result of your class assignment and talk about the process and any problems that you ha
assignment. All members of the class may participate with comments during this phase. Also, at this phase, you
present questions to me, which the class may answer, either I will answer or non-class participants may answer.

3. The Guest Lecture Series—this series can be found at http://www.artgraphica.net/free-art-...ing-basics.htm

Members of Wet Canvas have volunteered to provide demonstrations pertinent to the class material. I encourag
check out this useful archive. Right now the lectures are only a few but more will be coming so make sure that y
constantly check back for the lecture. If you have something that you might feel will contribute to the lecture se
contact either Gavin (Zarathrustra) or myself by pm and we will tell you how to get set up for the series. One ot
DO the demonstrations that have been posted—you can only benefit from doing them.

NOTE: this is a mechanics class so we are sticking to the bare basics here and we should make an effort to limit
philosophical opinions. Now, on to the class:

Why drawing is important

Drawing is planning. Much of the success of any piece of art depends largely on how well it has been planned. P
is dependent upon drawing and the final look of a finished piece will dictate how piece will look. I remember rea
upon passage in watercolor instructions (Ray Smith for example) and publications like “Watercolor Magic” where
emphasis is placed upon drawing—the idea being that no matter how strong your technical skills are in your cho
you have not rendered a fine initial drawing your piece will look amateurish, unfinished or empty.

This is an arguable point when you look at, say, the works of humorists like James Thurber or Jules Pffeifer who
are less then awe inspiring. However, they have taken their seeming INABILITY to draw and have meshed with t
so that not only is their humor in the words but there is humor in the drawing—the two blend and that is what d
do for you it must blend so that only your intended idea is not distracted by a weak hand, much like a choir with
Sopranos, Altos, Bass and Tenors, your drawing are songs and the drawing and the media technique are the har
produced.

The Masters knew this fact and as Jose Parramon writes “drawing is the mother and the father of all arts”. Draw
been entwined in the traditions of techniques such as painting, architecture, sculpture and even in such visual e
film making. As a woodcarver, I create a three dimensional drawing, turn it into a two dimensional pattern, tran
patter to my block of wood, bandsaw out the the shape and begin, using my gouges to shape the piece. The ent
am carving, I will be REDRAWING or restating the drawing so that my cutting does not throw me off track.

Drawing is the dawn of the artistic process..

Re: Basic 101:Class1

We now come to Basic 101 which will emphasize breaking the drawing down into its geometric components, cre
harmony and finally a piece that will sing the artist’s song.

A word of caution: there are many different ways to approach this subject and just as many popular books. The
personal philosophical issues regarding drawing that do not mesh with what I am writing. I ask that you put asid
philosophies and just take this class for what it is—a mechanics class to help you to better envision your own pe
approach.

Source material

The textbook that we will be using is How to Draw What You See by Rudy de Reyna.

In preparing this course I have drawing from other sources such as Bert Dobson’s Keys to Drawing, Gene Frank’
Drawing (Walter Foster), Pencil Drawing Techniques edited by David Lewis, Barnes and Nobles’ Drawing: A Step
Guide, Drawing in Pencil by Jose Parramon.

Hence, if I seem to be veering off with courses that you cannot find in the book, rest assured that I am drawing
related sources.

Materials:

1. How to Draw What You See by Rudy de Reyna (This is an optional requirement)

2. A number two office pencil(equivalent to a 2b) or an HB or 2B pencil (the brand does not matter).

3. A sketchpad (the quality of the paper is of not matter at this point, the size should be 8.5 inches by 10 inches

4. A regular eraser. If you have a number two, the eraser on the end of the pencil is fine. I use a Sakura Electric
that is purely a luxury.

5. A kneaded Eraser

6. a blender (q tips, toilet paper, your finger, tortillions or blending stumps)

7. A pencil Sharpener—I use an electric sharpener but that is a matter of preference.

8. A drafting brush—optional but highly recommended.

Your Studio Space:

For the purposes of this course, your studio space is simply where you do your drawing. It can be an elaborate b

comfy specially build room, the corner of a room (like I have) a kitchen table or an outhouse in Whiz Bang, Kent
where you feel comfortable. My personal space is a flat surfaced drawing table with an electrical outlet attached
that I have a portable drafting table that I can remove and put away when I am doing mats or whatever. I have
file cabinet of to one side and on top of that sits my light table. I have a magnifier lamp as as a light source alon
Ott light and, of course three windows which allow natural sunlight to shine through. I have included a photo of
work. Regardless, do not draw on a flat surface as it can distort your perception of your pr object. Try to work w
45-degree angle.
Drawing on a flat as opposed to angled surface is a poor drawing habit. When working on larger papers (over 10
your line of sight will no longer view the entire surface which can in turn lead to a distorted perspective. Even th
problem is minimal with the size of paper that I am suggesting for this class, it will become a problem if you dec

drafting table like I like to do and instead are using a drawing board, consider the following tip: place one end o
so that it rests in your lap and rest the other end against a surface like a table. This allows you the benefit of wo
angled surface and offers the back support that you will need to free up your hands.

Lighting:

As I mentioned before, I use several combinations of light sources: an ott light, natural sunlight, and a magnifie

the combination of lights in positions when combined eliminate the shadows projected from my hand. The ott lig
well and there are also light bulbs that you can pick up at Wal-Mart that also approximate natural sunlight.

If you are left handed, position the light behind your right shoulder. If you are right handed position the source l
your left shoulder.

Re: Basic 101:Class1

A Word About Pencils:

It is very easy to be wondering aimlessly through a crafts or art store and suddenly stumble across—the tins! Be
pretty boxes and lovely packaging. Most of you are going to discover that, sooner or later, you’re only working w
few while the other members of those pretty tins sleep away like vampires in a coffin. Whenever you can try to
stock”. These are pencils that you can buy individually and you can build your personal stockpile to suit your ow
tastes.

Not all pencils are the same.

There are probably as many types of pencils as there are artists. Every one of us has personal preferences that
offers the best results. I lean toward mechanical pencils, 0.5mm and 0.3mm but I also like Prismacolor sketchin
that are graphite. To me, these offer me the best control. Take your pick and look around. When you go to a sto
storekeepers to let you test pencils to see if you like them. If the stores don’t offer this service look around som
get your friends at Wet Canvas to post some examples before you make a purchase. I have posted some sample
different pencils for you to see.

[Insert Image Here]

The graphite or “lead” pencil is the pencil that is generally used for drawing. Pencils are categorized by their deg
hardness. B through 9B denote softer pencils while H through 9H denote harder leads. F and HB denote more ne
gradations. The softest lead produces the most intense darker values. You can use a 2b, an F or an HB to lay ou
drawing before proceeding but really the choice is entirely yours.

Holding a pencil:

In the following photos, Jennifer demonstrates how a pencil is held for drawing. Not that she also has a drawing
resting against a table as she works on a sketch. Being an ambidextrous family, Jennifer is demonstrating these
the benefit of people who are left as well as right handed.

The first position is called the writing position and is held like you are going to write a letter. This position afford
deal of control and is excellent for detail work.

The second position is called the underhand position or the “cupped” position and is good for doing straight lines
and gesture drawing. This is the position that I favor.

NEVER DRAW FROM YOUR WRIST—ALWAYS TRY TO WORK FROM YOUR ELBOW. Not only does working from you
promote carpel tunnel syndrome but you create “tight” confined drawings.

Keeping your drawing clean:

When drawing with graphite, use a slipcover to protect your clean surface. Take a clean piece of paper and slip i
drawing hand on top of the drawing. This will protect the drawing from being unnecessarily smudged. There are
variations on the theme when it comes to protecting your drawings. Here Jennifer is using typing paper as a slip
she works on her drawing. In the next photo she is using a drafting brush with the bristled pointed toward her. T
serves as a bridge upon which the hand rests. This is the method that I prefer because I have my brush handy t
away erasure marks or any other unwanted particles.

Re: Basic 101:Class1

CLASS ONE: BASIC STRUCTURE OF OBJECTS—STRAIGHT LINES

Paul Cézanne, in writing to a colleague, wrote that all forms in nature are based upon geometric shapes. “Draw
shapes”, he said, “and we will be able to draw or paint what we wish since simple geometric shapes underlie all

Every object, be it you, a Michelin Tire or a tall standing Sequoia has its foundations in geometric shapes: The c
cylinder, the cone, and the sphere. They may not be geometrically perfect and sometimes you have to really loo
them but they are there and if you know what to look for you can build you drawing relying on these basic shap
this fact can allow you to build a drawing with depth and dimension.

The first lessons in this class are the really obvious but let us not pass them by.

1. Drawing Straight Lines

Materials: for this class, the only materials that you will need are a number two pencil (you may sub in an HB or
the standard office pencil will do fine) and a sketchpad of your choosing. DO NOT concern yourself with the qual
paper. Newsprint is just fine. If you want, you could use a legal pad—whatever work for you. Work within your c
and certainly within your budget.

Put away all of your rulers, protractors, rolling rulers and any other tool that might help you to draw a straight li

use your standard tools.

It isn’t really THAT hard to draw a straight line. I hear people say all the time “I couldn’t even draw a straight lin
usually a nervous laugh and then there is that look of longing because you know that they long to take a pencil
do what you can do—draw a picture. The funny thing is that anyone can draw. It may not be of a sellable quality
not be exact but anyone can pick up a pencil and draw. Most people who cannot draw have, generally speaking,
themselves that they cannot draw either through their own failed experience or through comments of family and
all know the feeling and we have all been there. When you draw a celebrity and you show it to your mother or a
they say “who’s that?”—Well, you know what I mean.

First, decide how you are going to hold your pencil. There are several ways to hold a pencil. The first is the writi
the second is the under the palm position. Now, practice drawing using these hand positions. Try drawing a serie
squiggles, lines, and circles in order to bring these positions into your comfort zone. When you do these exercise
DRAW FROM YOUR WRIST. WORK EXCLUSIVELY FROM YOUR ELBOW.

(Insert drawings here)

Everyone operates from an angle. It’s a favorite direction for you to draw. Finding the angle that is comfortable
easily draws a straight line. Using the wrist will tighten up your control and will produce a shaky line. Using the
permits more control of the pencil thus producing a smooth flowing line

you draw the line, turn the paper and try to draw a horizontal, vertical and a diagonal line. Do this over and ove
you discover an angle which gives you a comfortable feeling straight line.

Do this using the writing position and then do it again using the underhand or cupped position. See if you can no
difference.

2. Take another sheet of paper and this time, again, start dashing off those straight lines as quickly as you can.
NOT turn the paper

Do this using the writing position and then do it again using the underhand or cupped position. See if you can no
difference.

Again, when you make these lines—don’t worry about being careful—this is an exercise—fire them out as rapidly
can—try to get them straight but don’t worry if you do not—worry about taxes and death—don’t worry about ge
straight line down the first time. That is what practice is for. Which brings me to another point: PRACTICE PRACT
PRACTICE!!! Make time to do these exercises and you will create improvement in yourself.

Well, this is the end of class 1. I told you this was a basic course but don’t laugh just yet because it will get prog
difficult as we move through the 30 weeks.

Thank you for joining us.

Class Assignment: Read the chapter Eye Level: Foundation of Perspective. If you have already read it great! Tak
the picture you did for the pre class exercise and see if you can not anything about the perspective of the piece
locate where you think the vanishing point occurs. If you have questions, contact me.

If you have the time, download the image and try doing the chair. This will be good practice for straight lines. Al

Re: Basic 101:Class1

Rui, take a look at the course curriculum in the Basics FAQ thread and you will see that we will be covering thos
subjects. Just sit tight, my friend. We taking this one step at a time. Keep working on those straight lines.. You a
need them later on.

GUYS, I SENSE RESTLESSNESS IN THE CLASS--PLEASE BE PATIENT FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE EXPERIENCE
REAL BEGINNERS IN THIS CLASS AND WE WANT TO MOVE AT A PACE THAT WE CAN ALL FOLLOW TOGETHER. J
ON THE EXCERCISE THIS WEEK AND RELAX AND ENJOY YOURSELVES BECAUSE IT WILL START GETTING HARD
WEEK AND GET PROGRESSIVELY HARDER AS WE GO ALONG SO PLEASE BE PATIENT.

NOW, I HAVE A CLASS ASSIGMENT: PART !Draw some circles--at least 20 of them of difference sizes and then fi
with staight lines. Create a three dimensional look by varying the distance between the straight lines. Do not us
blending techniques but try to approximate as close as you can a three dimensional sphere.

PART 2--Take your chosen subject and recreate the picture using ONLY straight lines like you did with the sphere
results of BOTH drawings.

I have sketched out a ROUGH idea of where I want you to go with the spheres. Pardon the hurriedness of this--y
definitely do better. Take your time and get them both to me at your pace--AGAIN, THE PURPOSE OF THIS IS TO
YOUR STRAIGHT LINES.

Allrighty, finished the assignments for this class. Didn't redo my landscape though. I'm also studying a drawing
from the library so I'm dropping a few images off here and there to save time (WTB 48 hour days) and just try t
the ones I feel teach me the most. So here are my lines, spheres and the almighty evil chair. Not too happy with
spheres, could've concentrated more on the shading.
