Intro To Contour Line Drawing

The Contour LINE A contour is the line which defines a

form or edge - an outline. Contour drawing is the place where most beginners start, following the visible edges of a shape. The contour describes the outermost edges of a form, as well as dramatic changes of plane within the form. 'Blind contour drawing' is when contour drawing is done without looking at the paper.

Christo & Jeanne Claude, The Gates “The Gates, Project for Central Park, New York City,” by husband-and-wife collaborators

Christo and Jeanne-Claude, is a study of a large-scale installation project the couple envisioned. Known for enormous, ambitious environmental works, Christo created “The Gates” in Central Park with 7,500 saffron-hued fabric-draped, 16-feet tall gateways traversing 23 miles of park walkways. “The Gates” represent openings created in the park’s stone wall originally intended for steel-gate installation. This preparatory drawing of “The Gates,” which is a compelling artwork in its own right, is displayed in New York’s Guggenheim Museum.

Bellwork 1) This genre of art is called “Environmental Art.”
