Week 13/Week 14- Everyday Objects and Creature Designs

IN-CLASS ASSIGNMENT:

Looking at references, draw the following objects from various angles using your understanding of starting with basic shapes for constructing the form and using the "inside-out" method or the "add/subtractive" method to refine the form. (Refer to the examples below)

- 1 page of 5 Shaving Cream Cans
- 1 page of 3 Toasters
-1 page of 5 Digital Cameras

HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT:

PEN ONLY

"1 PAGE = Front AND Back Side"

On 11"x14" (min.) drawing paper; use high-resolution photos:

-As homework, I recommend doing at least:
  • 4 pages of everyday objects:
    • A) Tea Kettle    B) Computer Printer    C)Blow Dryer    D) La-Z-Boy Chair/Recliner
      • Each kind of object must be drawn, at least, 4 times in different angles (recommend 2 drawings/side) 
      • Must use basic shapes for constructing the form and use the "inside-out" method and the "add/subtractive" method to refine the form. (Refer to examples below)
  • 3 pages of creature creations (1 full page drawing/side):

IMPORTANT- Must use lay-in method, show contour lines/form, textures, and shadow values on all following drawings:


    • 1 page of a two four-legged animals fusion + plant textures
      •  Ex. elephant/antelope w/ tree bark texture on lower legs
    • 1 page of a two insect/arachnid fusion + plant textures
      • Ex. pray mantis/spider w/ a flower pedal texture wings
    • 1 pages of a two two-legged animals fusion + plant textures
      • Ex. dinosaur/eagle w/ moss texture on neck/back


Take your time, and take as many breaks as you need. No need to rush. I expect this to take you at least twelve hours, likely more.
Either draw from life, or use high-resolution reference images. Google images (be sure to set the size to large under search tools) and pinterest tend to be good sources of reference.
