Measurement workshop 8th of September
Our
first drawing class focused on the importance of
measuring when drawing a still life. With one object
as a starting point (used as a relative length), I
measured the surrounding objects to bring them
into proportion with the rest of the drawing. I focused on
keeping the true scale of what was in front of me using these measuring
techniques to make sure I was keeping things in proportion.
With the white box as a starting point, I measured the width of the
box with my pencil, and using it as a reference, measured how far it was
to the end of the table. I could then multiply the width of the box to the end of the
table. Using this method I could work out the
scale and proportion of the drawing with more accuracy.
