OVERLAPPING CONTOURS continued

Ink Techniques

Value rendering without contours.

How the design begins.

Linear Techniques with graphite pencil.

Class began with a series of value scales. We made one in pencil by rendering tonalities. The next was executed with ink and cross-hatching.  And lastly, students tried their hands with the stippling technique again with ink.
From there, students returned to the overlapping contours project. The project will be complete with a series of four drawings. One exploring linear techniques with graphite pencil. One using tonal rendering in graphite pencil without the evidence of contours or outlines. And one investigating the various methods and applications with India Ink and Pen and Nib. For the last design, students can use color, mixed media or repeat any of the above. Drawings by Bomi Kim (in-progress).
