DP – Gesture Drawing Journal AssignmentDue: Thursday, December 13th

Create 2 full-page spreads (that is 4 half pages if you are counting; or 2 pair of facing half-pages – think that covers it!) using the gestures from our first days of gesture drawing.

1. Develop the gesture drawings – add clothes and objects for the gestures to hold. Be creative! Have the gestures interact.

2. Develop a background! Give the figures somewhere to be. Make the background go with the figures and their clothing. Be creative – yes, again!

Materials you can use? Watercolor, tempera, scrap construction paper, india ink (your favorite), charcoal pencils, colored pencils (in the table boxes); tissue paper; magic marker washes. Be inventive!!

You will be graded on --- Composition Creativity & Personal Voice Assignment Follow-Through Skill & Craftsmanship Media Exploration

What if you hate your gestures or you don’t enough for two two-page spreads? Make some more!!
