Layered Perspective Drawing

Layered Perspective Drawing

From top to bottom shows my full process of drawing this perspective of the hallway in the architecture building. While practicing in my sketchbook, I was having trouble with establishing a correct perspective since all aspects of my drawing weren't going to the vanishing point. I tried to keep this in mind while I was doing my finalized

This exercise helped me to understand the process of drawing basic, contour shapes first and then to next add detail with tone and value. This makes a drawing more dimensional and realistic. I applied these techniques that I learned to my final drawing I did for the homework.

Ching Chapter 4 Summary

Ching Chapter 4 Summary

By
Ching Chapter 4 explores space and depth and how we can create these two aspects with the use of line, shapes, and tonal values. James J. Gibson identifies 13 forms of perspective in this chapter. I found it helpful when each form was shown to us and described to us in class. Size perspective, depth clues, and linear

I found this exercise extremely helpful because it helped me to focus on perspectives. The blurriness of the film made it hard to look at every little detail. This made me pay attention more to the contour of the building and the shapes it creates. I enjoyed this as it helped me with the struggle I have of

Here is an image of some practice I did of drawing a vase on my desk. Using a cube to generate the shape for a cylinder definitely made this process easier. Here is the practice drawing of my desk in my sketchbook. Once again, I used a cube when generating the shape for my desk. I used the

3.1-3.3 Exercises

3.1-3.3 Exercises

By
These exercises were very helpful because they initiated my thought process of how boxes should be drawn in perspective. I found exercise 3.2 difficult when trying to depict one box inside of another. Both of these exercises improved my skills. I enjoyed doing exercise 3.3 because it challenged me when it came to a cylindrical shape. I believe

Understanding different perspectives of an object helped me to learn a lot during this exercise. The desk and its objects were portrayed differently within every angle I looked at it. I had an extremely difficult time when drawing the legs because of the aspect of perspective. I also had a difficult time with shading, since there is a

Circle Template and Euclidean Value Worksheet

Circle Template and Euclidean Value Worksheet

By
Practicing circles in perspective ended up being a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. However, I noticed that it definitely helped while I was practicing drawing cylinders later in the week.  These shapes help to make the objects in my drawing seem more 3-dimensional and realistic.  I thoroughly enjoyed the Euclidean rendering exercise. It was

Name It sculptural drawings

The first two images are practice for the final Name It drawings. I tried to focus more so on how the 3-D objects on sculpture casted shadows on to the rest of the sculpture. I enjoyed drawing from the perspective of the side of the model more than looking straight at it. It was easier to add and

Here 3 types of contour drawings were practiced; blind, modified, and cross-contour. The blind contour drawings are the top two.

Reading: Ching Chapter 2 summary

By
Chapter 2 in Ching's book explores how your eyes see light and how your brain perceives it. "The light and dark patterns we see emanate from the interaction of light with the surfaces of objects around us." The term value was introduced as the most critical thing when it comes to drawing and shading. Value is the relative darkness

While practicing in the atrium, we were told to focus on proportion. I found this extremely difficult as my mind sees the whole box, while my eyes do not. Letting go of what your brain is telling you and understanding what your eyes are telling you has proven to be extremely difficult for me.  In this drawing, the

Still Life Contour Drawings (hatching, stippling and scribbling)

The first shading technique I tried was hatching and cross hatching in which I did in pencil. This was my favorite technique to do because I found it easier to do the shading than the other two techniques. I picked many objects with curved surfaces so that I could practice creating dimension with shading.  Stippling with a pen
