Look at the progress . . .

Our drawing portfolio was due today. Here are my drawings that I turned in. They are posted in the order that we drew them in class. It is amazing how much I learned and grew. I really do love this class!!!

First day of class - we were suppose to draw what was in front of us.

Positive and Negative Shape

Contour Line - I am not good a structural line

Local Value - Yes, that is suppose to be a pinecone.

Light and Shadow - This one was on display!!!

Tonal Value - Don't ask about the hand.

Conte Crayon - the hardest drawing ever!!

How often do you draw with a white crayon?

Midterm Tonal Drawing

Finished Drawing #1

Well here it is! I turned it in this week. We are suppose to get our grade on Monday. I think I was a little too heavy handed with the lines but I think it is lovely. We get our next take home assignment next week regarding value. Holy Cows, I love this class!!!

Drawing I - Still Life - Day 1

I am currently taking Drawing I at the University of Wyoming and I love every second of it. We received our first take home assignment which is based on line. The hardest part was trying to decide what to draw. After a little thinking, I came up with the theme, "Boy meets Girl." It represents my life and not some random bottles and bowls that some other students are drawing. I selected one of his shoes and one of my shoes, our sunglasses, and our ititials that are made out of metal. Here is the picture of my still life. . . My charcoal drawing Day 1 (there is so much I need to do, but I have a great start) . . . and Art's pencil drawing (his is on a smaller scale). We were sitting side-by-side drawing away. It was so much fun! I will keep you updated as my drawing progresses.
