Still Life Drawings

The students chose a still life to observe in the classroom out of the four set up. They each did three practice sketches in their sketchbooks to come up with most successful composition. The students then created a large scale drawing of their best sketch using charcoal and focusing on value and shading and blending.

Value Forms

Students learned about value and how to shade and blend with graphite. They then created graphite drawings utilizing these techniques. Some drawings are accompanied by their practice drawings. Do you see an improvement?
