Groups of objects
For this exercise we had to gather a group of 8 objects and arrange them on a surface, after this we had to sketch them out but keeping in mind to imagine them transparent keeping in mind the weight, I found this task quite challenging as I normally like to add tone to make the object 3D yet it was a fun exercise to do to really get the look of the size of objects and how they compare when drawing.
This is the set up I had arranged and I found I did get a clear accurate result, I wanted it to look quite gathered rather than having everything placed separately and I found this lay out worked well for me. This wasn’t the original set up I had placed, I just forgot to take a picture of my view and had to try my best to match the view I had. For this task I chose to use graphite as I felt it was a nice smooth, easy gliding material for this type of task.
This was the result of my work and I do look at it now and wish I had drawn to a bigger scale and made more use of my A1 paper yet I’m happy with how it turned out seen as it was the first time I’d tried drawing objects like this and I think the picture does match the look of my drawings.
All in all I found this was a fun exercise but I did struggle at times to get the right scale seen as I haven’t experimented with this form of drawing before, I am happy with how my result has turned out.
