a drawing of a woman holding a guitar in front of a cityscape with birds flying over her head

I'm very tardy in posting these. It was a review assignment in graphite, done during the first week of school by my Intermediate and Advanced 2-D students, the Advanced kids having to do a 13 step value scale and the Intermediate kids doing a 10 step value scale.

These value scales were done by my 2nd year 2-D kids as a warm-up exercise at the beginning of the school year. Yeah, I know I'm very late in posting them.

a black and white drawing of abstract shapes

An assignment from Drawing 1, we were to practice transitioning values from one end of the value scale to the other. This was also meant to be abstract so that we weren't drawing realistic things. I couldn't help but transform some of the shapes though. (18x24)

a pencil drawing of an apple on top of a block of wood, with the shadow cast by it

Light on forms creates values and often reveals the three-dimensional qualities of those same forms. The quality of light may have an effect on the values we see on three-dimensional forms as well. Highlights, shadows, and cast shadows also help to define the forms observed around us. In this chapter, the modeling of three-dimensional forms in two-dimensional drawings will be explored with emphasis on creating the illusion on paper of realistic three-dimensional objects in space.
