Value Drawing

converse_by_meshack7-d33hcf0Three-dimensional realistic drawings are completed with graphite by controlling black and white – controlling the value.

In painting realistic three-dimensional images are created by controlling the light, reflections of color through intensity – tint and hue.

Choose one of the still life- converse  shoes or the hats. In sketchbook draw the still life as large as you can filling the page.

Begin with a light graphite powder covering the page. (Place a sheet of typing paper over the drawing to keep the dust from affecting other pages). Use a 4B-6B pencil with eraser to complete a realistic drawing of the still life.

Complete today and leave you sketchbook open to the page for grading purposes.
