Because it is 3D, light hits the form and gives the form various shades. A variety of darks and light is called Value. Study the forms above. Where is the light coming from? How does light effect round and flat forms differently? We will need to practice with making smooth value. YOu will be given a value scale practice page to complete before you begin the still life. Here is what your value scale sheet should look like when you are done.... http://tabithaannthelostsock.blogspot.com/2019/09/value-scale.html?m=1 Steps to beginning Still Life of Forms

About The Artwork Preliminary pencil study for the Etiquette Vanitas oil painting, originally it was intended to be a simple contour drawing to transfer to canvas, but I was just having too much fun with a pencil. The majority of my still life works begin with a simple but descriptive contour drawing, which works out the composition and suggests the shadow side or turning point on the form. This is typically more than enough information to move on to the next stage of paint. Especially for any monochrome underpainting. I pushed this one quite a bit further. In a preliminary drawing you can do a great deal of problem solving. By simply dissecting the imagery, exploring the shapes, form and value relationships. You really familiarize yourself with the subjects and those nuances that first attracted you to it. This process seems the most natural for me and the most challenging. I feel that I am looking through a lens and slowly turning it, focusing in on the subject through my mind’s eye, interrupting it as I go. Becoming more aware and knowledgeable about this thing before me as I progress through the process of creating the image. As I describe the effects of the light, it becomes more and more dimensional and real to me. And enjoyed fleshing out the value relationships in this drawing. Drawing, graphite and pencil on paper.

Contour line is a big part of Art. Whether we are talking about form, perspective, eye level. Many artist use contour line as part of their main focus. See below. ARTIST MYRORNA SWEDEN Uses contour line, pattern, and objects to show form in her art. Karan Singh Art Dana Martin Art See objects in CONTOUR LINE Put them together in a Still LIfe. Image from www.dreamstime.com From DaVinci Art Studio Using Contour line, cool/warm colors, primary, & secondary used for emphasis.

MMS Student Work 2023-8th grade Shyli Rushing Grayson DuPont Natalie Morales WHAT DO DO Before you begin, Start "seeing" in Contour Line... if you are having trouble doing this, watch videos below to help you. 1. Find 3 objects that you know you can draw. They can be around the room, pictures from Internet, or shapes you pull from your head. 2. Draw the outside shapes of the objects. Define the space with a horizontal line dividing background from foreground. 3. Use contour lines on the object. This can be contour in 1 direction or cross contour going both ways (more challenging). Usually, the Center (eye level) should be a straight line. As the shape goes outward from center, lines gradually change to match the outer line. 4. Color using color theory to add emphasis: Warm and Cool Primary and Secondary Complimentary Colors. STEP BY STEP visuals 1 &2. 3. 4. You can color solid with lighter colors. then go over them with darker analogous colors to add pattern. Watch these videos below to get your mind on seeing in Contour Line and understanding Cross Contour line.

Structure One of the key elements of drawing from life is finding the underling structure of the subject your are drawing. This means looking for the basic shapes first, then finding the surface planes and changes. Then refine those shapes to match what you see. Reference for drawing. Today, I thought I'd use a pear as an example to use to look for an object's structure, because it simple enough yet has enough complexity to require us to look. Though, for this exercise any fruit will do. I simply like the pear because it is not just a round object, like an orange or even an apple. The shape gives us more to search for and analyse. Though you are more then welcome to use any object you like. Here I set up a pear against a dark background with a single light source, just to make things easy. The more light sources you have the harder it is to determine the plane changes and the surface direction. (It also make it easier to figure out the value pattern, but that is for another time) Find the Simple Shapes The first thing to look for is the simplest shapes you can see in the subject. In this case a pear can be seen as a couple of circles or ellipses. You don't need to draw the ellipses just look for the shapes to guide you. Capture the Outlining Edges Once you have found the simple shapes draw the outlining edges of shape of the subject. Use straight lines to keep shape clearly defined. We can always refine the rounded edges later. Find the Planes and Plane Changes Once have the general shape. You want to start looking at the volume of the subject. The volume is just the form in three dimensions. To find the volume there are several approaches. The method we will use today will be looking for the surface planes of the form and where these planes change direction. This will guide us in developing the form. The planes can be thought of the flat surfaces of the object that gives shape to the particular area of the subject. Where two or more planes meet, the form is taking shape. The planes meet each other at various angles. This is what is referred to as the the plane change. The shift in surface direction can be thought of as a new surface plane. This helps us find the form by telling us what direction the surface is headed in relation to our view point. Mark the Shadows Next, mark out where the shadows on the form will fall. This way you will have the light side and dark side of the subject delineated prior to rendering the shadows and form, making it easier to distinguish the area you are working on later. (This is not a necessary step of finding the structure. Is a technique I prefer to use for the way I begin shading the form.) Remember Finding the underling structure can be applied to any subject. It is an important part of drawing as it provides a framework to build on that will provide a consistent drawing. Later we look at how to use this type of structure drawing to inform how we render form (shade) the object. The rest is not part of the lesson but I thought you might like to see the process through to the end.
About The Artwork My book collecting habit began in childhood, driven by the goal to complete the entire set of Nancy Drew hard covers, and the delight found in fancy boxed gift sets by my favorite authors. I continue to acquire books not only for their content and prose, but also for their sensual and aesthetic qualities. My collection includes other people’s diaries, scrapbooks, sketchbooks, and photo albums. I am drawn to books that reveal a stranger’s experiences and memories. Many of the books and albums contain collections of ephemera that reveal a lifetime of stories. These books often provide a glimpse into the life of another person and another time. Nowadays, relocating and dodging piles of books is a daily domestic occurrence, one that my family has grown comfortably accustomed to. Some of the images in The Bibliophill¬ia Series are an exploration of relationships between these piles of books. The arrangements are intended to spark recognition, ignite memory, or invoke a presence. Some compositions are designed to celebrate the books’ sculptural qualities, in which the books never quite reveal their original purpose. Other times a title, such as “French Guidebooks” or “Summer Reading,” groups a collection. Once the books are shelved, these relationships are broken.
