Zach



This composition is a big breakthrough in the direction of your drawing style, Zach!! You used loosely sketched lines and different tones to capture the organic contours and color values of the agave plant. What I really like is how you merged your abstract style with a realistic representational style.

Your unique perspective of the classroom ceiling made for an EXCELLENT composition for last week's challenge sketch!



This week's drawing challenge: Find an object that has interesting patterns and textures to draw. Make 3 quick study sketches of it in different positions (sign and date your sketches for me, please). Then, focus on one part or area of the object to use for a dramatic composition, like how we focused on one area of the agave instead of the whole plant. Get expressive with your line work. Fill the whole paper. Include lots of details that will make for a provocative composition. Enjoy!
