This weeks assignment due 4/15

Hey everyone!

You are to go to this site:

http://www.onairvideo.com/photo-archive.html

and choose  2 figures to draw.

• It should be a full figure with hands and feet in the image.
• Drawn on good quality drawing paper
• the image( not just the paper) should be at least 9x14"
• Use a medium you feel comfortable with
• Pay close attention to hands, feet and the construction of the head( use the sheets I've given you for construction or consult anatomy books)
• remember to start the drawing with a gesture, build up the structure using beans, build the mannequin and finally render the final drawing.
• Give yourself a border to draw within for composition
• The final drawing can be in any medium you choose.
• Put your name on the drawing

I will be collecting the drawings at the next class. 
Bring in three different colored pencils and drawing paper( and ink if you like) this week.

Thanks!

Steve

GEsture review

I just thought I would share these posts with you for the gestures we've done in the past...read through itto get a different perspective.

Hi everyone. i will be assigning this book to you for the next few projects. I am putting this in a Google drive folder which I will share here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1neGmqZrrP2s0qYIqHxX5Sgja-bbvZZvw/view?usp=sharing

You should read over this book and give it some time to absorb the lessons on figure drawing in here.  IF there are any problems with this link, you should also have an email with this link. Let me know if you cannot follow the link.

Assignment #3 MOdels

Assignment #3

This week the homework is:

1. Draw ten more hands
2. Print out 3 of these models( or any from last email) at 8.5 x 11
3. draw construction( tube) lines over the drawing to show major forms and their directions( tubes over arms/legs/torso etc.) 
4. do a final drawing of the figures  following the process outlined in class( Gesture, Construct figure, measure anatomy. Include entire figure head to foot and make sure to use all the different techniques to help you along. Remember to really find the flow of the figure in the gesture. Look closely at the proportions, work with the beans and boxes so you can construct the figure. Find the terminal line and use that to decide which planes are coming toward or moving away from you.
