- Students will recieve a photograph image depicting one half of a symmetrical face. They will take this image and glue it to one side of a page in their sketchbooks. They will then begin to copy the face with graphite pencil onto the other side of their paper creating the mirror image which completes the portrait.
- Students will pay attention to proportions, and accuracy regarding texture and value details found in this particular portrait.
- This assignment will begin on Wednesday, March 4th
- It is due Friday, March 20th and is worth 100 Points.
Week One of Portraiture Unit:
- Day One: Student will view portrait video and discuss observations they have made regarding the importance of the portrait.
- Students will group up in pairs to do a drawing exercise with a classmate to set a "benchmark" that will provide documentation of their skills as they begin their training in portraiture. Students will then receive and work from an informational packets of diagrams and drawings to assist them in learning the structural elements of the face and head. They will begin by drawing the frontal view of the head which entails locating standard proportions regarding the structure and location of all facial features.
- Day Two - Five: Students will learn to draw the individual facial features, such as: eyes, ears, noses and mouths.
Students will work on practicing the proportional measurements of the Frontal Face, and then do 5 repetitions of each facial feature for the week. Drawings will begin on February 26th. They are due for check-in as a sketchbook assignment on Wednesday, March 4th and worth 100 points (20 points per feature category).

Your Assignment
In this lesson, the students will be learning to use their pencils and erasures to create the illusion of value on paper. We will discuss how value is the second tool that artists use (the other tool being perspective) to create the illusion of depth on a 2D surface. Through using value, the students will be able to create objects that seem to have mass and form.
In this lesson, the students will be working on their first still life drawing. This still life is focused upon the students using negative space as a means to create a high contrast drawing. The instructor will show a slide show giving examples of student negative space drawings as well as modern art drawings that uses negative space.
Draw a room in your house in One-Point Perspective in your sketchbook. Start by drawing back wall, then make your vanishing point to make the walls, floor, and ceiling.
Draw a word in one-point perspective with 4 or more letters on final piece of paper.
If you want to add a letter in two-point perspective then you will get 10 extra credit points.
Assignments Due in Sketch Book are:
- 25 One-Point Perspective Cubes
- 25 Two-Point Perspective Cubes
- Word in One-Point or Two-Point Prespective with 4 or more Letters
