We’re going to have fun with a new
Art Series titled The Remarkable Spring of 2020!
Overview: Project 6 is a Still Life. Using
the elements of Drawing (I will remind you of these elements to jog your
memory), you will create a still life of entitled; March 2020:
Happenings from my Quarantined Home. Make it interesting
(remember composition and Rule of Thirds), and make it fun! After all, we
are more than conquerors in Christ. Romans 8:35-37 This is an adventure! Make
it beautiful!!!
This week: Brainstorm subject matters. Draw several thumbnail
sketches.
Day 1: Brainstorm ideas and jot them down. To help you get
started you can ask yourself: What objects around your house represent
this unusual extended amount of time at home? Or, what are a few of your
favorite things from home you want to remember about this time? You can draw a
single image, a few items or a collage of items that represent this time in history.
Day 2: Draw the ideas in a small, thumbnail sketches. Which
one do you like best? Start to build your final on a bigger sheet such as 8 1/2 x 11.
Next week: Work on your Final Drawing.
Day 1: Start drawing the contours (outlines) of your final drawing. Remember the Rule of Thirds (your main focus of interest should not be in the bulls-eye center of your page).
Day 2: Start shading. Remember to include at least 3 different shades and make sure that your darks are dark enough!
