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.
