Free Hand Sketching

This is a contour drawing of Igor, this type of drawing is really helpful to me, by just drawing the important elements of the picture. Also it was really fun to do.

 This is a negative space drawing, and that is where you do not draw the object you draw the space around the object and fill it in with graphite. Drawing the negative space is what makes this type of drawing tricky.

 This is not a freehand drawing, it is a digital drawing that I created with the Wacom tablet. It is a good way yo be creative and to use a new tool. It is way easier using the Wacom tablet than using your computer mouse.

This freehand sketch is called a shade and shadow sketch. It was drawn at about 4:30 pm when the sun was still shining so I could draw the shade and shadows that the sun produced on some stairs and a wall that was connected to the stairs by my house.

 This sketch was a drawing of my own hand holding a tissue. I had to focus in on the shading and where my fingers were to make it look realistic.

This is not a freehand drawing but a freehand painting. My main focus was adding the color that I saw. To do this I tried to not think about it but just paint the colors that I saw. I tried to add texture to the apples and lemon.

This is a floor plan of my whole house and a sketch of my living room. This sketch helps me develop more skills in the scale of everything in the picture and my skills in drafting.

  

  This is a chair in my house that I drew in all different angles. I drew a front, side, perspective, underside and top view. This makes me understand how many angles an object can be drawn because most of the time people will only draw one angle of an object.  

 

This is a one point perspective of my living room at home. I had to draw it once in graphite and the other in ink. This shows a difference in contrast between the two pictures. What I learned after I drew this was that it takes time and the images have a lot of differences even though it is the same hallway.  

This is a one-point perspective that I just learned how to do. It is the side of a building and I wanted to include some road and clouds to make it a little bit more interesting. I tried adding shade and shadow to the building but it did not work out that well. I like one point perspective better than two point perspective. 

 

This sketch is called a one point perspective. It is the corner in my living room. This sketch helps a lot with shading. I added some interesting shading where the picture is placed. That shadow can act as a shadow or it could be seen as a piece of the painting.

  

 This is another two point perspective of an interesting building. As you can see that the sun is shining at it on one side so the other side is a lot darker, that is to show the shade and shadows. I learned that two point perspective can be fun and I like it better than one-point perspective because it adds interest to the space.
