VISUAL ARTS: So far...

These are just some pieces I have worked on in class over the last couple of weeks. Nothing special - no masterpieces (just yet!) we are simply focusing on technique more than subjects at the moment.

This is a collage composed of bits of painted white paper and coloured paper.

These two are continuous line drawings - where you keep drawing, the pen doesn't leave the paper. The first one was made using greylead, graphite and charcoal whilst looking at the subject and the page, while the second is made of just charcoal without looking at the page.

This was a very tedious exercise as the paper is shiny. We used greylead, graphite, charcoal and ink (the ink went on the easiest).

We started with the subject as a silhouette then went over it with white pastel to "draw the subject out".

These two pieces were made using dot technique with paint. The only difference is the first one was done using brushes on white paper, the second using fingers on black card.
