ARTISTIC DRAWING. 
The element

 This video is about how to paint watercolor in the chinese way:





 EXERCICE

Today we will continue working on your element using watercolor. 

I would like to give you an advice:

Before you start applying color on the drawing, it is important to keep in mind which areas  will remain white  to protect them, because in watercolor doesn't exist white color.

Is important to consider too, that is better don't use the black directly and try to find the darkest areas and shadows applying the color by steps (adding more color after dried).

DRAWING IN A REALISTIC WAY

Exercice

For  several sessions we will draw in a realistic way. In order to do this, we need our drawing set. But in this case, we will need too, an organic element you must choose,  keeping in mind you will bring at class for several weeks.


When you try to draw in a realistic way,  It's very important to observe in detail your element and keeping your eyes on it , not on the paper.

Space and volum


 Next video is about Alexander Calder work, sculptures and mobiles. Let's see!


 The next one is about  Pablo Gargallo,an important spanish sculptor:


DRAWING THE SPACE

The line and the plane can draw the space.  We just need to find an sculptural line with wich it could be possible to leave the paper. We must think about a simple material as a rope, a wire or a thin wood.

A piece of wire, for example, could draw the space and transform a simple line in a shape. So, we can create tridimensional and opened structures.

Activity

 We are going to start drawing the space using our imagination. We can take a wire and  build geometric shapes (squares, circles or figuratives forms) like faces or objects.


Artistic drawing

To draw organic forms, we can divide the process of drawing into three phases:

1º Sketching


2º Development
3º Detail




Exercice

Now, all of you must draw a still life using a black paper as a blackground.



 Most of you have done very nice drawings. Let's see :
