Year 10 Proportion

The first half of today was proportion and how this can be drawn. Please keep in mind we are using the new Kahui names as our subject - there are 5 birds from this area that are the Kahui names.

• Centre lines
• Measuring
• Drawing for mass (base shapes)
• Adding details once the proportions look right.

This is the Mōhua bird I drew in front of you today to try and explain those things above. You should be able to see the centre line which curves as the bird form has a curve to it.

You should be able to see a line at the neck and at the feet/tail base. I put those down as approximate measurements of where the head and body would fit. 

You should be able to see lots of working lines, and that I drew with very light lines until I was a little more sure of where things should go. On your tone page, you should have at least one drawing of one of the birds and the word proportion. If you don't please get this done for home work.
