Day 1 -Exploring how to use Line, Shape, Positive and Negative Space, together using black and white colours to produce sketches similar to the geometric drawing below:

 

   

Day 2 – Drawing the negative space (in black and white):

 

 

Day 3 – Drawing the negative space (in colours):

 

Day 4 – Size and Negative / Positive space 

 

Sketch a simple negative / positive space drawing of any object in full size. Then re-draw the object (still paying attention to the negative and positive spaces), but this time, focus on one small section only. Notice the differences in your end drawing.

 

Day 5 – Spatial and Negative / Positive space 

 

Draw a 3x3 grid of squares. For each square, sketch different number of dots, with different spatial arrangements. Observe how the end product is when the dots are progressively drawn from being sparsely packed to densely packed together.

Day 1 – Study the image below. Using only geometric shapes, re-draw the image.

 

 

Day 2 – Organic Shapes 

·       Draw the 3 images / objects using basic lines (can be continuous, or just explore different line widths, media, outlines, etc.)

·          (THIS IS ONLY 1 OBJECT. FIND ANOTHER 2 MORE)

 

 

Day 3 – Geometric Shapes 

·       Draw the 3 images / objects using only geometric shapes

 

 

 

Day 4 – Abstract Shapes 

·       Turn your previous 3 images / objects into an abstract renditions

 

Day 5 – Use 5 shapes 

·       Use FIVE (5) shapes to create a new creature (Animal? Alien?). 

·       Use each shape must be used at least one time.

·       The shapes can be used as many times as you want.

·       The shapes can change in size to fit your idea-Shrink or Enlarge.

·       The shapes can change position or direction, but do not change the integrity of the shape.

·       Add color.

Day 2 - Draw a portrait (of yourself, your character in book), and colour it using only monochromatic colours 

 

Day 3 - Create a playful, uncomplicated sketch. Next, scribble a few swooshes, loops, swirls, figure eights or chevrons all over the drawing. Your energy mood and spirit will carry through their body and into your hand to create a lively line pattern. Prismatic shapes will emerge in front of you as the lines intersect with each other. Do the intersecting shapes large enough by not adding too many lines. Use only analogous colours to colour.

  

Day 4 - Exploring how to use Line, Shape, Positive and Negative Space, together using two complementary colours to produce sketches similar to:

 

Day 5 – Draw any picture, and try to colour outside of the lines. For each picture, repeat 3 times (you may copy) then experiment with any colour combinations, e.g. analogous colours, complementary colours , warm vs cool colours, etc.

Day 3 - Hatching is created when non-crossing lines are used to indicate the value on or around an object. Use the hatching technique to show smooth transitions of value in your drawing.

 
Day 4 - By blending lights and darks softly together, we can create realism. Create this realism on objects by blending. 

Day 5 –  Using any of the techniques above, draw the human nose, eye, and lips.

Day 1 – Create a VALUE SCALE of 8 values (from white to black) by drawing 8 boxes of approximately 1 x 1 inch box. Shade each of the 1x1 box with a different value starting from white to black. 

 

Day 2 – Replicate three graduated tones as follows. You will need to apply different pressure to your pencil or stylus to achieve this effect. Start by shading the area you wish to be dark and slowly build up the tone. As you work towards the light, gradually ease the pressure on your pencil until you can no longer see the mark it makes. Repeat this process several times, building up a depth to the shading, adjusting any irregular areas and trying to keep the tonal changes as smooth as possible until you achieve the variation and intensity of tone that you desire. 

 

Day 3 - Watch the video in PutraBlast on shadows. Re-create the ball in lighting. Use different values to show different shadows. Label each of the shadow.

 

Day 4 – Find another 3D shape or object. As you did with Day 2, draw the shape / object, but this time change the source or direction of lighting. Use different values to show different shadows. Label each of the shadow.

Day 5 - Create an abstract cubist design by drawing different geometric and organic shapes.  Then colour this first layer with a light value. On top of the shapes, draw other geometric or abstract shapes. Colour this layer with darker value. Repeat this step until you reach at least 4 different layers of values, going darker every time.

This week’s exercise is about values. You will understand about lighting and space this week. You will need to be able to control the pressure of your pen / stylus in order to complete the sketches this week.

 

 

Day 1 - Draw two cubes / boxes in one point perspective. Draw 1 cube above the horizon line, 1 below the horizon line, and another cube on the line.

 

 

Day 2 -  Draw a series of other objects(e.g. cylinder, pyramid) in a landscape using 1-point perspective techniques.  

   

 

Day 3 -  Draw a scene in your room using 1-point perspective techniques. 

 

Day 4 –  Draw a series of objects/boxes using 2-point perspective techniques.      

 

 

Day 5 –  Draw any scene / building / object using 2-point perspective techniques.
