CHLOE KETCHAM

For this drawing the objective was to focus on line quality using the four basic types of lines. There was a display set up with all sorts of objects which would have been difficult to draw in the limited amount of time, so everyone in the class chose certain parts to draw; I chose to draw the Polaroid camera with wires and string around it. I started the drawing off with the outline of the camera, then drew the objects around it before focusing completely on the detail in the camera. I drew really dark lines for the strings that were up close. I drew thin lines for the sharper and thinner wire that were up close, and for the thin wire in the back. I used thick lines for the parts on the camera that were larger and darker. Lastly, I drew light lines on the camera for the parts that had lighter shapes. I had to change my lines after the drawing was done in order to get more contrast; therefore the finished product was much better.
