Mr. Briscoe - 10/26-10/30
Foundations of Drawing
Monday - Was the last work day on our Circles and Ellipses Project. The final due date is Monday the 2nd.
Tuesday we introduced a new concept this week - one point perspective. One point perspective is a perspective in which all parallel lines converge at wo points on the horizon. We discussed this in class and did a worksheet to practice. This worksheet is worth 10 pts.
Wednesday the class continued discussing one point perspective and its roll in architecture. We took several images and traced how lines in architecture meet at one single point of convergence called the vanishing point. This worksheet was worth 10 pts.
Thursday and Friday we started a new project called Explosive Shapes. Students used their new knowledge of One Point Perspective to do a drawing of 30 shapes exploding from one vanishing point.
PROJECT GUIDELINES:
1) 30 shapes in one point perspective (15 squares/rectangles, 15 shapes of your choice).
2) MUST HAVE: vanishing point and horizon line. Shapes must be above and below horizon line.
3) Establish light source and shade accordingly
4) BE CREATIVE: overlapping, crashing shapes, background design etc.
RUBRIC:
Student understands and can apply One Pt. Perspective – 15 pts
Student used value properly – 10 pts
Student used high degree of detail and creativity – 10 pts
Effort – Good use of class time – 15 pts.
Craftsmanship – Neat, Clean, Complete – 15 pts
