Art 2 Sketchbook
The purpose of sketchbook assignments is to have you
continue to expand your skills in direct observational drawing. You will improve the more you draw! The more you practice the better you get at
seeing something in 3 dimensions and transferring it to 2 dimensions on
paper. VALUE (shading) is what makes
something look 3 dimensional on paper. For
homework assignments, please do not draw from a picture PUT THE OBJECT IN FRONT
OF YOU AND REALLY LOOK AT IT! Choose a three dimensional object and put it in front
of you. Use a lamp or light to help
exaggerate the highlights and shadows.
