Yesterday we took some time in the gallery at the Longview Cultural Arts Center to discuss Jonathan Dankenbring's art show - LO. Afterwards we spent an hour doing a value drawing of the space and the shadow tones cast by the objects. We discussed shading technique's for developing smoother more consistent value tones.
The second half of class we spent time experimenting with cross-hatching techniques. We used india ink with calligraphic pens to do value drawings of forms.
Assignment: Bring in a printed image (8.5"x11"-standard paper size) of a Renaissance era painting. An example is Michelangelo's Holy Family (see below). We will discuss why on Tuesday. Thanks.
