FOLIO WORK, values for form

After working with LINE to show the shape and surface of objects, let's get into VALUE to describe form and light.

First, practice creating a range of values using drawing tools.....

Create an 8 box value scale, with blocks for white, black and six values.....



Second, use those values in a drawing of a twisted paper form... you can build one in class using scrap white paper, a cardboard "base" and some elmer's glue.

The drawing uses VALUES only, no outlines should be visible in the completed piece.

Work with graphite drawing tools on white paper in the folio.... here's a sample drawing from http://s4.photobucket.com/user/anwnn/media/artwork/DIIRibbin.jpg.html



Go to it!!
