evaluate your pencil sketchNo need to write out the questions. Just write in full sentences and paragraphs. You should have about 200 words.
Are you happy with the end result? What are the most successful elements of the drawing? What do you need to improve on? If you had to start again, would you choose the same object to draw? What would you choose and why? The title of the project is 'precious' do you think you object looks 'precious' in you drawing? How so? If it doesn't look precious, what would you change to make it look that way? If you could add color with any media, what would it be and how would you use it? What skills have you learnt in the build up to this drawing that you think you could use again? |

Line Artist Assignment
Beautiful Line Drawings When you first picked up a pen or pencil and started making marks on paper, you began with line. Whether through self-taught trial and error, or the helping wisdom of others, we learned how line defines form, creates structure, divides a frame, traces contour, creates tonal variation (cross-hatching, for example) and leads the eye from one part of a work to another. Initially a mechanism for getting outline onto paper: identifying edges (a crucial but perhaps unappreciated step in the process of applying tone, texture and colour) lines begin at last to be applauded for their own merit: celebrated for their presence – whether a casual flick of charcoal on paper or a gentle and quiet streak of graphite.
