In your sketchbook, create at least 10 thumbnail size drawings of the subject matter of your choice. These should be done in black ink---you can use an ink pen. Look for interesting figure ground relationships in your subjects. The drawings should be solid black and white.
Positive space: the active shapes in a composition; also known as "figure"
Negative space: the inactive shapes in a composition; also known as "ground"
*Always be conscious of the figure/ground relationship!
On Tuesday, we will begin working on line. You'll need vine charcoal, paper, pencils, eraser and ink pens.
Have a good weekend!
