This week in class we worked on implementing cross contour drawings. The goal of this exercise was to define shape and mass through contour lines. By focusing on the contour lines it teaches us not to focus on outside edges for drawing and gives the drawings more dimensions. We also worked on drawing cylinders. By using a measuring stick and outline boxes to improve our cylinders it helped to turn our drawings from flat surfaces to three dimensional objects.
We also changed the nature of our classroom critiques.This was done by having each classmate both ask and answer a question about our finished assignments. This has helped our class by not only giving each student more feedback on their individual work, but also forcing each student to focus more on what is going on in the class.-Catherine Ashbach, USD Drawing I Student
