Drawing 1
Professor Cole
I feel constricted in this assignment. I do like the bold slow marks more than the light thin ones, feels like I am doing more work. This is a lot of measurements and precision. I dislike both of those. I kind of like the consistey of the lines, and the different use of pencils.
I did one strip with pencil 6B and one with 2B. All others were mixed up. I thought it would be interesting to see the difference. I also did both that I did in only 6b and 2b without a ruler. I think the ruler is the main constrictor. I did many free of the ruler, I thought it gave more contrast. I also studied up on the artist Bridget Riley, her main thing was to use lines as illusions. That is why I wanted to do verticals lines and diagonal lines. But I understand that this assignment was more about studying the difference in pressure and speed.
All in all, I would say I enjoyed this assignment. I wish it were on a smaller scale because then I could of spent more time on each line instead of worrying about filling the whole format. Again I suck at using rulers and perspective.
