Drawing Exercises Continuous Contour Line Drawing Blind Contour Eye Drawing Gesture Drawing Negative Space Drawing Value without Line Drawing

Continuous Contour Line Drawing Create a drawing without lifting the pencil off the paper Helps artists focus on the line Imperfections = Beauty

Blind Contour Eye Drawing Look at the subject matter you are drawing, but not at your paper Helps your eye and hand work in unison Do not lifting the pencil off the paper Abstraction = Success

Gesture Drawing Draw as much information as you can in a short amount of time Do not waist time erasing; instead add darker lines on top of softer ones Focus on what is being drawn as much as the drawing itself

Negative Space Drawing Draw the space around the object (negative space) rather than the object itself 1st use solid marks to create very flat image 2nd try making the negative space more realistic

Value without Line Drawing Do not draw a single line, instead use shading to build the drawing up Create various degrees of lightness and darkness You can use an eraser

Increasing Darkness Pressure Crossing lines Lines closer together

Still Life Drawing

Still Life

Still Life An artwork that shows mostly inanimate objects Inanimate = things that cannot move or live Artists use this technique to become better in their skills of drawing and most importantly seeing

Contour Line Drawing Start with soft pencil marks Zoom in and draw big Try using shapes that you see in the objects Complete entire composition before adding heavier marks and details to a single area

Value

Value Varies degrees of lightness and darkness in an artwork A good artist will use these degrees of value to give an artwork depth

Value vs Contour Line

Value Scale Using a pencil and ruler, draw 5 x 1’’ x 1’’ squares

Today’s Steps Add value to your artwork, with various degrees of lightness and darkness Choose from tonal, crosshatch, or linear, techniques Look closely at values and blend what you see

Hints Draw what you see from your personal perspective Constantly compare your drawing with the objects in the still life Spend equal time looking at your drawing and the objects in the still life
