Today's Class- Today we started our study of line. I began with a slide show of images from prehistory through the late 20th century, discussing the use of line in each case. After that the class did a series of exercises about contour line and the idea of negative space in drawing.
How to make this up- Students who missed today's class should make up the following exercises in order to receive credit.
Contour Line- We did a series of drawing exercises taking shoes as the subject, exploring exterior contour, cross contour, and blind contour drawing. Below are some student examples. For the full details and more examples of the exercise, click here.
Today's work was all portfolio exercises, which must be made up by the end of the semester.
