Today's drawing session was based on getting a sense of composition and placement within our drawings, with focus of negative and positive space along with making composition out of objects. The objects we where asked to bring in where two pairs of our own shoes, which we drew both singular along with in compositions with other peoples shoes. We were given different instructions to draw in response too when looking at these shoes, such as a l minute continuous line drawing, drawing from touching the shoes with eyes closed or drawing the negative space with gouache.
Drawing from touch. eyes closed.
Continuous line drawing, 3 minutes.
Negative space with gouache.
Composition drawing, 5 minutes.
These 4 drawings are some of my favourite pieces from the drawing session. Overall, I found this day really informative and interesting. I liked the way we were instructed to do certain instructions within a short time frame, as it made me focus on the quickness of drawing something and helped me to not be too precious about my drawings which I sometimes am. Although drawing shoes isn't something ill probably progress with again, it is the concept of compositional drawing and drawing certain objects which I definitely will develop within my own work like my drawings I'll be developing alongside my textiles world unit.
