Practice Fabrics
Final Project
- Did you use a wide range of values? (A range from white to black with at least 9 values). Explain how is this evident? - I do believe that I used a wide range from white to black. I think that the white is in a different style but it works for my piece.
- Explain how your knowledge and creating practice studies with value contributed to your piece.- I create practice study a lot on my own, specifically with hands, poses, and eyes but I have never done a study on fabric before. I think that creating the practice studies allowed me to figure out how this particular sheet worked, and it helped out a lot.
- Describe the blending and transitions in your fabric (discuss your use of pressure with pencil/colored pencil/charcoal pencil and other techniques to achieve this).- I believe that I did the blending pretty well, especially at the top, with all of the small folds. I do believe I could have added some more dark though.
- Explain how your interpretation of texture is essential in capturing the look of the object.- My interpretation was a more swoopy and smooth, compared to others harsher takes on the fabric. Also, my highlights had a certain texture to them that not many others did that really made the piece my own style.
- If you could recreate your pieces what would you do differently to enhance the final outcome?- I would add more dark to my piece, and probably work on adding more folds toward the bottom. Also, I would not put as much black/gray on the fold on the bottom right.
