Week Two: Contour, Cross-contour & Blind ContourMaterialsSketchbook, graphite, 18”x24” newsprint and 18”x24” drawing paper (for final drawing)ProjectDraw a still life composition consisting of several objects with volume (shoes) using contour and cross-contour lines.GuidelinesGather three or more household objects that possess volume. Some examples are: tennis shoes, stuffed animals, a purse. Avoid plane-based objects like strappy sandals or flip-flops.Arrange the objects in an interesting compositionFocus solely on line. Do not shade or add value to any part of the drawing.Begin in your sketchbook. Draw several contour drawings of one shoe. Remember to find and draw the visual edges only. These include the edges of folds, but only where the material is in front of something else. Also, going back to your first assignment, consider how line weight and shape can suggest depth and movement.Do a second set of two or three drawings in your sketchbook using cross contour. Remember that cross contour lines move over the form. When you are drawing these lines, consider that your eye and pencil are running along the surface of your shoe. Unlike contours, which only describe the edges of an object, cross contour describes the surface shape.For the final drawing, using the viewfinder and the final still life for this project (see Summary), find a composition you think works and draw it using a mix of contour and cross contours on drawing paper 18″ x 24″ with graphite pencil #4 or #6.Try this in charcoal on newsprint first
