A student in 7th Period brought up a great question in class today: What is the difference between a sketch, a study and a finished drawing or painting? Thanks for raising such an important question!
According to Wikipedia:
A SKETCH is a rapidly executed freehand drawing that is not usually intended as a finished work. All kinds of visual artists, use the term "thumbnail sketch" to describe a small drawing on paper (usually part of a group) used to explore multiple ideas quickly.
A STUDY is a drawing, sketch or painting done in preparation for a finished piece, or as visual notes. Studies are often used to understand the problems involved in rendering subjects and to plan the elements to be used in finished works, such as light, color, form, perspective and composition.
Palettes:
You may choose from the following palettes:
- Monochromatic
- Analogous
- Complementary
- Split Complementary
- Primary Triad or Secondary Triad
or...
- 3-5 colors + Tints, Tones & Shades (please mix complementary colors for shades, this will help you retain more of the nature of the original mixing color)
