Graphite Image (week two)

  Our second session with Dave and Mick consisted of two sub exercises. First of all, we drew 3D shapes, although predominantly spheres; decided upon the location of a light source and then used  8B drawing pencils to add approapriate shading onto the image. Then, as an additional task, we could use coloured pencil crayons as an alternative:




  In the second half of the lesson, after a short preview of drawings of the same style, produced by Mick and Dave themselves, we were shown how to draw perspective pictures, using vanishing points. As I had already been introduced to this particular effect you can create in pictures, a number of years ago, I felt incredibly confident and used this time to attempt to draw a car in perspective (although it didn't really look like a car at the end, lol).

  Unfortunately, as each individual session only lasts two hours each I was unable to produce the amount of work I had initially aspired to achieve so I created a further perspective picture at a later date, based upon the set of Eastenders!
