Blind Contour 1 - For this activity, we had to draw our hand with a contour line (a continuous, steady line that basically contours and outlines the shape of an image), without looking. This was difficult for me because I'm such a perfectionist, and i actually thought i was drawing a lot bigger than i was, that's why getting the proportions down was so difficult.Blind Contour 2 and 3 - we had to be blind for this contour line practice too, I was frustrated because I tried to make the drawings more to scale but they continued to turn out too small, but I think it gave me good practice for the modified contour drawings we did next. Modified contour 1 - This one turned out a lot better than the blind contours i did, it was easier to get the proportions right and to know exactly where the indents were to add more of an illusion of detail and add value. Modified contour 2 - I wasn't fully satisfied with how this one turned out but its still better than the blind contours, i see where i messed up though and i think it's from going too fast and making one of the fingers sloppy and not in proportion so on the next one i tried to slow down, every time i did one i went slower and slower. Modified contour 3 Modified Backpack contour drawing - I liked this activity and the backpack i got to draw, i think the details and overall drawing of it turned out good, but the proportions could've been better Contour line classroom (practice) - i don't like the way this turned out, I was still practicing getting the proportions and perspective of the room right. Contour line final
1. I tried my best to use a completely fluid line even though it was difficult because the room contains so many small details and empty space, but i got more of the hang of it by the final. 2. Practicing and learning about contour line drawings definitely helped me to get the technique down, i learned that it doesn't need to be completely perfect when using this way of drawing and you have to draw slowly and carefully and pay good attention to the subject you are drawing. 3. A contour line is a continuous, fluid line that outlines all of the details in a drawing in a simple way, an outline drawing is a continuous line that outlines the outer edge of an image without all the details. 4. My interpretation of line is essential because you have to create the illusion of value and proportion with minimum value and just one continuous line. 5. From completing all the practices and final i learned how to pay attention to the subject matter being drawn, if i was to redo the final one i did i would probably go slower and try to make my lines more fluid, and add as much of the little details as i could, as my drawing is somewhat missing some.
