Combining Skills with Ideas*

Start with the face reference you brought as homework—

1. Rip or cut it so that at least ½ the face remains— SAVE BOTH HALVES2. Paste one half in place—draw the missing half.3. Concentrate only on LINE WORK FOR NOW

Shade the missing 1/2—

1. Use careful observation to get the details accurate.

2. Use careful blending technique to render a WIDE RANGE OF VALUE

•The second drawing will use pattern to EXTEND and MORPH the face

1. You may want an different face to work from—instead of the remaining ½ face from your first

drawing.2. Start by drawing the entire face in line only.

3. Then begin looking at patterns. Use patterns to:

Show transitional or tonal values.Distort or “morph” the face.

Develop something “new” in the background.

( You may want additional references as you think

of ideas).
