We had to draw each other plus do a self portrait.
I have chosen some samples of my better pieces below and pieces that I really like to show what we get up to in our Art Lessons.
I have discovered I enjoy using charcoal the most.
I chose to do my Self Portrait (above) in pastels on black paper. I originally thought I would use just white pastel on black paper but as I started to draw I realised it needed something more than just white so added yellow, orange and black. I really liked the effect I got. I worked quickly on this project and did not think about it as I drew it, the finished picture was completed in about 15 minutes.
The picture next to my self portrait is an unfinished piece. It is a collage of a fellow student using paper which I cut with scissors. All our Art pieces are produced in very short time scales.
We also spent time drawing costume pieces. We started by just looking at the shapes the costumes formed in their construction and had to just draw the shapes we saw before we went onto drawing the outfit in more detail. We also had to draw just a section of the outfit.
In a couple of lessons we drew some still life objects placed on the table before us.
In our final lesson we were given a bag with an item in it. We had to first draw the item contained in the bag without looking at it. By putting our none drawing hand into the bag we had to feel the item and follow the contours and draw the item whilst feeling inside the bag.
After doing some quick drawings of the item after taking it out of the bag to look at it we then did a more detail drawing spending 20 minutes.
After this we then had to reproduce the item from the drawing into a 3D construction using paper in about 10 minutes.
Below is my drawing, the item and my 3D construction.
