1. Wrapped Contour Animals

2. Objective:
Apply design skills while assessing appropriate materials to convey chosen expression.
What that means…

3. Goals: Create a moving composition
Use materials (pencil, sharpie and colored pencil) in the best manner which improves your composition
The “statement” you make should be clear
Artwork should be neat and professional quality

4. Definitions Contour Lines- the outline of an object
Negative Space- space around or behind the object
Portrait- picture or drawing of a person or animal, typically from the shoulders up

5. Contour
Contour lines are created by the edges of things. They are perceived when three-dimensional shapes curve back into space. Edges are perceived because the objects differ from the backgrounds in value (lighter verses dark), texture or color. When line is used to follow the edges of forms, to describe their outlines, the result is called contour drawing.

6. Cross Contour
Contour lines also can describe interior detail. For example, a contour line drawing of a person’s face would include a line defining the shape of the head and additional lines that describe the surfaces and planes of the facial features. These lines can vary in thickness.
