4. Lets start this lesson by exploring “Drawing as we know it”. Image: http://cooktownart.com.au/faye_pini.htmlhttp://cooktownart.com.au/faye_pini.html

5. What is drawing? And where did it come from?

6. What is drawing? Image: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroglyphhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroglyph Drawing is a way to make visual art. To create a drawing you only need to make a mark on a surface. Cave drawings and paintings are thought to be the earliest forms of drawing but n o one really knows exactly when the first drawing was made.

7. Why draw? Drawing is a way to visually reflect and capture the world around us. This may include people, animals, landscape and sea, anything the person drawing would like to capture and remember. Drawings like these cave drawings help show what the world may have looked like many years ago.

8. Over time drawing began to change, even the materials people were using to draw were different. New ways of drawing started to arise. 1897 Pencil and paper 1512 red chalk on paper 15 th Century Linear perspective 15000-17000 B.P Cave paintings/drawings Image: http://theangelswearfins.blogspot.co.nz/2010/09/lascaux-cave-walls-prehistoric-drawings.html http://drawsketch.about.com/od/perspectivetechdrawing/tp/perspectiveindex.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Leonardo_da_Vinci_-_Self-Portrait_-_WGA12798.jpg http://writinginstruments.blogspot.co.nz/2009/12/toulouse-lautrec-dog-drawing-in-pencil.html http://www.moma.org/visit/calendar/exhibitions/964/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawing http://www.mde-art.com/art-blog/digital-drawings-and-art-time-lapse-animations-abstract-portraits-and-faces/ 1940 comic drawing 1998-99 Charcoal, pastel, pencil on paper 2008 computer drawing

9. So far we know all of these art works are drawings. They all have marks that curve, connect and line up to create a drawing. But how small or big can a drawing be?

10. Artists from around the world have moved from creating drawings on paper to drawings the size of walls. Here are just a few large scale drawings… This talented artist, who is also autistic, created this cityscape of New York all from memory. This artist made their kitchen more lively by drawing a cityscape in felt on the kitchen walls and cupboards.

Artist So LeWitt uses black paint to create thick lines that stand out from the large white wall. Artist Yosuke Goda creates intricate drawings in Felt that wrap around, under and on top of us.

How small can they get? Here is a landscape colour pencil drawing.You can see the artist has gone to much effort to show detail in the buildings and a range of colour in the trees. But how small is it? Let’s use this pen to measure and see how small this picture actually is… This drawing is only 6cm high and 9cm wide! Smaller than the black pen Here is a pencil drawing on a piece of card.The artist has used light and dark shades to show detail in the drawing. But how small is this drawing? This drawing was made on a matchbox and is even smaller than the last drawing we saw, measuring at 5.2cm high by 3.8cm wide!

The artist has given a gloomy look with most of the drawing covered in dark shades and tones and few areas with light. But how small is this drawing?This graphite pen drawing with all its detail is only 2.6cm high by 3.6cm wide! Here is a portrait drawing made from ink on paper. The artist has used few colours in their drawing and minimal shading, making the drawing appear very flat with little depth. But how big is this drawing?This ink drawing is a tiny 2.5cm high and 2.5cm wide! It is the smallest drawing out of all the small drawings we have seen.

14. Let’s recap on what we have learnt so far… As we have seen, drawing has been around for a very long time…

15. What have we learnt so far? Drawing… can be simply making a mark on a surface. has been around for centuries, from cave drawings through to computer drawings can be made differently and be of different sizes. From stamp size to room size helps capture our thoughts and the world around us.

16. In the next lesson we will explore “New ways of drawing”. End of lesson
