Line Quality Session


What did I struggle with?
Initially I felt stretched to come up with 30 different straight lines. I found that it took me far longer than exeryone else. I think that this may have been because I was trying to make each line very different in terms of how I applied the media unlike the people around me who appeared to be doing the same line repeated in lots of different media. However, I think that this will work in my advantage, as I have now have a range of very different lines which are going to make my 30 drawings dynamic and interesting.


What went well?
I think that the second drawing of the person was really effective. I like the boldness that the black outline gives it, yet it still has a looseness to it. It is a far more interesting way of representing a person than the first one (closer to my regular drawing style).

How am I going to move forward?
For my 30 drawings I want to play around with one of my contorted acrobats. I really wanted to experiment with line and tone and different ways of translating these images anyway, so this is the ideal brief for me. I think that the fact that I also have to do so many repeats will push my drawing into some obscure and interesting directions.
