Year 10 Weeks 1 - 3 term one 2019

We have been covering good drawing skills.

On the site there are a couple of helpful pieces in regards to tone and using a tool called a tortillion (I often smudge with my fingers instead).

Either way! It will work.

TONE: 
The point is, you need to make sure you are creating a depth of tone (black where it needs to be, white paper where it needs to be).

Things you can practice are:
1) creating a gradient on paper with your pencil.
2) looking at shadows and dring to draw them without letting them become forms - they have no form!
3) Shading based on the shape - if its round shade around it not through it
4) Implying the shape and not using a solid outline
