Blind Contour & Value (Drawing & Painting I)

Hello Everyone!
  I've attached some tutorials handouts about working with Graphite, Colored Pencil, Charcoal or Conte Crayon.  These will be helpful for you to review and practice.  I have also attached a diagram of the main elements of light and form.  Additionally you will find some demonstration videos for our Drawing & Painting I Assignment: Contour Drawings & Value. Finally I've included the project documents should you need them.  I'm very excited to see the great work you produce!

Project Requirements:

• Create 5 overlapping contour drawings of the following objects:

1. Your Hand.
2. Your Shoe or Shoes.
3. An interesting object from your pocket or school bag (no Phones or folders)
4. A part/section/ piece of your neighbor.
5. An object of your choice in the art studio/classroom

• Complete your 5 drawings in the following drawing styles:

1. Blind Contour: Continuous and Non-Continuous line.
2. Non-Blind Contour: Continuous and Non-Continuous line.

After you have overlapped your 5 drawings then you may begin shading every shape with a value gradient, a gradual shift from dark to light values.

Beginning to develop value.
