Assignment #3: White Paper on Black Contour


Assignment #3
Stevenson

White Paper on Black Contour
Make a contour line drawing in pencil or charcoal.  Then make it again with white drawing paper on 19x12.5 black paper.  Just like the original, it should be a drawing with black lines on a white field. To do so, cut or tear shapes out of white paper and, with a glue stick, adhere them to the black paper so that the only exposed black paper is in the shape of the original drawn lines. Though you are arriving at it in an unusual way, this assignment is simply a contour line drawing.  Pay close attention to line quality—a line should look exactly how you want it to look.  A good composition in this case means to keep the drawing balanced and well crafted.  Make sure that your lines are neat and clean, and be as true to life and you possibly can.  Spend as much time as you need—maybe several hours. Life size!  Since you are concentrating on making a whole composition, you must use the page as a whole—to all four edges.  Got it?

Get the feel of your subject through this drawing.  You will be graded by the rubric below:
