1. Select a subject and produce a contour line drawing. Limit the size of this drawing to fit an 8.5x11. Choose a single, simple object such as a car, insect, person’s face, fish, etc (Need an idea: Your hand). Subject could be traced from a magazine photo or. • Figure out a way to break up/divide your image in a linear way before value is added. • Examples: shattered glass, waves of water, spiral of a seashell, or geometrical division of shapes such as squares or triangles. These new lines will overlap the enlarged drawing of their subject. This will make their initial line drawing more visually complicated. The effect is to create many more shapes, like a giant puzzle.
5. Next create/decide on a value scales, one in divided squares, and another which is graded evenly from black to white. • 6. Experiment with filling the shapes in your image with a range of black to grey (on a rough sheet). Look at each shape and decide which area should start with the richest black and which should be the lightest gray. • 7. Fill the entire paper with values including both the positive shapes and the negative background shapes. Don’t leave any ‘blocks’ unshaded.
