Intro to Art – Unit 3: Drawing What You See Still Life Value Study Objective: Create a finished still life drawing in pencil with the following: Create a good composition using implied lines for a compositional plan Use 0-9 pencil values throughout the drawing Develop a sense of form through value Employ sightlines and measures to create a realistic sense of perspective Use good craftsmanship Materials: 2H, HB, 2B, 4B, and/or 6B pencil; Sighting Pencil; Erasers;’11x14 White Drawing Paper; Newsprint; View finder Mini-Labs: 1. Value Scale. Create a value scale using your drawing pencils. For values 1-3 use your lightest pencil (usually is an HB); for values 3-7 use your medium pencil (usually a 2B); and for the final darkest values 7-9 use your darkest pencil (usually 6B). 2. Forms. Build your own still life forms using the templates – cone, cube, and cylinder. 3. Value Shapes to Forms. Using your forms you built, draw the shapes – circle, triangle, square, and a rectangle. Next use value to shade the shapes into forms – sphere, cone, cube, and cylinder. Don’t forget the shadows. 4. Viewfinder. Cut out and make your own viewfinder. 5. Thumbnail. Using your viewfinder, decide on a composition. Follow a compositional plane and sketch the composition. Studio Project: After completing the mini-labs, sketch out your thumbnail onto your drawing paper. Draw the big shapes of the still life. Make sure they are in perspective to each other. Use value to shade the objects of the still life and give them form. Don’t forget the shadows.

Intro to Art – Unit 3: Drawing What You SeeStill Life Value Study

Objective: Create a finished still life drawing in pencil with the following: Create a good composition using implied lines for a compositional

plan Use 0-9 pencil values throughout the drawing Develop a sense of form through value Employ sightlines and measures to create a realistic sense of

perspective Use good craftsmanship

Materials: 2H, HB, 2B, 4B, and/or 6B pencil; Sighting Pencil; Erasers;’11x14 White Drawing Paper; Newsprint; View finder

Mini-Labs:1. Value Scale. Create a value scale using your drawing pencils. For values 1-3 use your lightest pencil (usually is

an HB); for values 3-7 use your medium pencil (usually a 2B); and for the final darkest values 7-9 use your darkest pencil (usually 6B).

2. Forms. Build your own still life forms using the templates – cone, cube, and cylinder.3. Value Shapes to Forms. Using your forms you built, draw the shapes – circle, triangle, square, and a rectangle.

Next use value to shade the shapes into forms – sphere, cone, cube, and cylinder. Don’t forget the shadows.4. Viewfinder. Cut out and make your own viewfinder.5. Thumbnail. Using your viewfinder, decide on a composition. Follow a compositional plane and sketch the

composition.

Studio Project: After completing the mini-labs, sketch out your thumbnail onto your drawing paper. Draw the big shapes of the still life. Make sure they are in perspective to each other. Use value to shade the objects of the still life and give them form. Don’t forget the shadows.
