Shoe Frenzy
Students will receive a sheet of paper 9×12. They will need to draw a 1/2″ border all the way around their page.
Next, they will need their HB, 2B & 4B pencil along with the shoe reference photo I gave them,
They will first draw a contour line drawing (VERY LIGHTLY) of the reference photo I gave them. (Spend a lot of time on this drawing, getting the correct foreshortening, perspective, etc)
Next, begin adding value slowly and working from light to dark. Place a sheet of scrap paper under the heel of your hand as you draw. This will prevent smudges and making your paper look dirty.
Now and then step back from your drawing about 6ft and review and see possible areas that need to be revised. You also need to see if your values have contrast. Make sure you have a full range.
