NO CLASS (4/3 & 4/5)
INSTRUCTOR EMERGENCY
Utilize this week to complete the first two exercises for Unit 3 (Pattern + Nature).
*You will basically do research on pattern, find images (of naturally occurring items) that have interesting shapes. You will create hand drawn images from these inspiration sources. The drawings should be of forms that take inspiration from your researched source images.
For example:
The image below uses repetition, and simple contour line to render floral forms. Because these forms are floating on the paper (not breaking the picture plane), they can easily be turned into a pattern. This will be demoed and explained further when we meet next week.
Another example:
The below image has taken inspiration from a photo of a tree’s rings. The resulting drawing(s) have already been turned into a pattern. You DO NOT need to create a pattern, yet. Just create drawings for now.
Other acceptable investigations:
