Cross-Contour Observational Drawing - Caitlin Curran
Objectives:
1. Create good sense of spatial depth by combining dynamic compositional structure, proportional relationship, and weight/thickness of lines.
2. Demonstrate refined use of lines to convey sense of volume, mass, and value.
3. Describe surface undulation of the subject matter through sensitive articulation of contour and cross contour lines.
4. Demonstrate versatility to handle your drawing tool.
5. Demonstrate strong work ethics and craftsmanship.
