I’ve done a quick sketch for my Creative Composition class tomorrow. The emphasis isn’t so much on composition but more on line drawing. I’ve never done line drawing before..I’ve never even seen one being done, so it was a bit of a challenge.

This is quite an interesting course. We will do line, tonal, and shape representations, then we will work on image placement through various elements such as contrast of scale, isolation and absence of focal point. Finally we will look at visual transformations or temporal transformations. Thankfully we can use whatever media we like, so it’s a chance for me to go mad!

On another note, remember I said I’d been nominated for a special achievement award? Well, today I received a letter telling me I’d won the award, so it means a nice award ceremony, plus a prize and I get professional photos as well. The ceremony is on 15th December, so I’ll be sure to post a piccie afterwards, so watch this space!

    Creative linework, Heather. Congratulations on the award!

  2. It would be interesting to hear what made line drawing a challenge besides it being your first time.

      Hi Derek. Thanks for stopping by. The reason line drawing was such a challenge is that I’m still not entirely sure where all of the plane shifts are, and how best to represent those shifts. I’ve not been drawing for long so my eyes still don’t see as well as the more seasoned artist.
