Drawing: Day 3 of being outside – WARM?

2.1Ac: Through experimentation, practice, and persistence, demonstrate acquisition of skills and knowledge in a chosen art form.

Let’s get rolling and get outside to draw from 5 – 10 feet away. One page and one drawing. That’s the goal.

Once again… What is your feeling about the process of drawing outside with a book that you made and a particular goal of filling it with observational drawings?

Studio Art 360: GLAZE Day 2

1.2P: Shape an artistic investigation of an aspect of present-day life using a contemporary practice of art or design.

2.1Ad: Experiment, plan, and make multiple works of art and design that explore a personally meaningful theme, idea, or concept.

Btw…50 Sheets of Paper – Click HERE to see the Album.

These drawings were created by the Advanced Drawing class with two stipulations, they needed to base their drawing on a sense of observation and they needed to use 50 sheets of paper. The rest was up to them. Our artists chose from a wide range of topics and ideas – all personal to them. Using direct observation, symbolism, and abstraction, our artists have created a wide variety of images all at various skill levels and approaches for you to enjoy.

  • If you were to look at your paper in terms of percentages, how much of the paper have you touched with pastel? Do you feel you are covering LARGE areas first or DETAILS first?
