First drawings for Controlled assessment 2014.

I had created these drawings before i had chosen what question i wanted to answer. I focused on capturing detail and key lines that form the objects in these series of drawings. 

( I have listed the medium i have created them with below each picture.)
Some of these drawings had to be mounted into my new sketch book as the one they were originally in fell apart.

Fine liner and water.

In this drawing i tried to capture the reflective surface of the ring. I chose to use fine liner and water as I thought it would show the lighter areas better and the smooth surface of the ring where as if I did it in pencil the marks for the pencil would have been visible and the effect of a sooth surface would have been harder to attain.

Pen

 For this drawing i only focused on the main lines and movement of the objects. i chose a random selection of objects and drew them on top of each other to see if i could find similarities in the basic lines and give them a common factor. I think this method is effective as it creates an abstract and different looking piece compared to if id have done them all individually. i may look into doing this more into the future.

Pencil

 For this i put down a single tone of pencil and then used a rubber to create the lines to look like a feather. i think this was effective as it shows the delicate nature of the feather.

Pen

 I chose pen for this drawing as it suited the object i was drawing. when using pen i tent to keep to straight lines and the glass block was formed from straight lines.

Charcoal and white chalk (requires further development)

Pencil

 In this drawing I focused on a corner of a stamp and tried to show as much detail as i could. I think this method could work well in the future if i continue to look at an object in detail rather than focus in the who;e thing.

 This was a continuous line drawing done in pen. I gave myself a time limit which is why some details where left out.i think working with a time limit is useful as it forces you to hurry and you end up creating more interesting and expressive marks, also you get alot more work done in a d=shorter time slot.

Pen

For this page I used one medium, pen. i focused on 3 separate sections yet very different of a tree and drew them in a style to reflect there nature. For the branches I used expressive quick marks as I thought it would be the quickest and best way to represent the busy and hectic branches. For the leaf (middle) i took my time and used careful little harks to try to show how delicate the leaf was. For the bark (left) i used thick heavy lines that were rigid and sold to show the toughness of the bark. I think changing drawing style to suit the object/scene you are drawing is very use full as it gives the work more depth and thought which engages the artist and viewer more.
