gathering primary research
Primary research consists of drawings, painting, photographs you make on site. If you draw from a photo, that's secondary research because the photo existed first.
Take photos of your environment and presents them on a primary research page

City Scape Silhouettes
Here you can see Acrylic painted onto newspaper, recycled paper, brown parcel paper and water color paper with a paint wash background. Try using a pointed object like a sharpened end of a paint brush to paint in sharp corners and fine details
Positive/negative space

little Pen sketches
There is one main difference between shading with a pencil and shading with a pen: with pencil, you can apply shading by increasing pressure - in other words, pressing the pencil harder against the paper in the areas that you want to appear darker.
With the exception of ball point pens, you can't use the pressure technique in pen and ink to create value. Instead, you must use one of the techniques demonstrated below.
You might be surprised to learn that, aside from the pressure technique, the basic drawing techniques for creating value when drawing with pen involves exactly the same strokes as when using pencil. The basic strokes include hatching, cross-hatching, scrumbling, contour-hatching, and stippling, as shown in the examples below.

Blind Drawings
Blind Drawings are simply drawing whilst looking only at the object or photo you are drawing. do not look at what is happening on the paper. The result is supposed to be messy, it's a 'style' you have created. This forces you to study a scene closely, observing every shape and edge with your eyes, as your hand mimics these on paper. The aim is not to produce a realistic artwork, but rather to strengthen the connection between eyes, hand and brain: a reminder that, when drawing, you must first learn to see. Here's some examples:

Continuous line Drawings
This time you can look at what you draw but you cannot take you pen or pencil off the paper. EVER! You must find creative ways to connect shapes that float in space.

Pencil color techniques
Colouring in! Easy? no any more! here's some tips on some professional pencil color use.

gathering rubbings
Limited palette
When an artist deliberately restricts the number of colors they use in a painting, they're said to be using a limited palette. (A palette being what paints are squeezed out onto, ready for use.)
Those original colors that you chose can be mixed in to new colors, HUES, TINTS and SHADES

5. Glue the pieces back down onto a new piece of paper, twisting and turning them.
You could try having different sizes of squares, mixing two or more signs together, cutting triangles...

Mapping it!!
turn your work into a stencil
Before you begin copy your work 3 times and glue it onto 3 pieces of thick paper or card.
Make a Spray Paint
You will need to use an absorbent material to spray on - water colour paper is good!
You need to build up the layer from the largest to smallest and from the lights colour to the darkest. However, rules are there to be broken, so experiment and have fun!

Add some Detail to finish
Use black or coloured pen to build in some details and finish your work off nicely. See these student examples below.
put it all together....

Which composition?
step-by-step
2. Make some decisions! Decide what will go where. What is your colour scheme?
-Which media? Which media technique are you going to use? Where will it go
-Which images? Which photos will inspire that? Remember all work needs to be from your photos from one specific area (like on your photo walk). Just as our inspiration Artist did, Nicky Forman. If you're not happy with the photos you took, you can always take more, as long as they're from the same place.
- What colours are you using, choosing only some is called a restricted pallet. You already chose them when you chose your spray paint.
You may want to write on the back of your paper, this plan

3. Where are you going to start to add media? Think about what could smudge..you might want to leave that to the end. Maybe you want to start with the most difficult, to get it out of the way? Or leave it until the end, when you feel more confident. It's up to you!
REMEMBER:
1. USE YOUR PRIMARY RESEARCH 2. USE YOUR COLOUR SCHEME 3. USE YOUR SKETCHBOOK FOR HELP |
