Sketchbook Drawings #1 and #2 for 3rd 6 weeks



It is expected that these assignments will take you between 1 and 2 hours(especially #2). 

Sketchbook 1 – Due 11/18 –  Draw a glass of water 1/2 full of water and with a spoon or straw in it.  Use a transparent, preferably clear glass. Make it life-sized and give it a context (table with shadows/reflections).  Use a full range of value and give it a good composition – REMEMBER TO GET THE LIP/THICKNESS of the glass. 
Your still life and finished homework must be posted to your blog before class starts on Monday Nov 18. Watch these two videos first!!!

Sketchbook 2 –Due Tuesday 12/3  You will have 2 weeks to do this assignment. 
Set up 2 -3 small paper bags(I'll have some you can take home) 
First, draw the bags in contour (just lines) and then draw them from 3 different angles(of the same set up)with realistic shading and shadows.  1/2 page each drawing occupying a full page spread (across the full width of 2 pages in your sketchbook - ASK if you aren't sure about this!!). Photograph and post your still life and your sketchbook 'spread'.
