Project Goal:
Project Goal:
Create a drawing from these prompt words (one or more word in one drawing).
The size of the drawing will depend on how much work you have already done on your intaglio print demonstrating the techniques needed. You will be asked to make a drawing that takes up 1/4, 1/2, or a full sketchbook page.
Draw in the drawing style of an intaglio print (pen & ink techniques like hatching and cross hatching).
Finish the drawing with a fine-tipped marker or pen. Erase pencil.
Questions to Answer:
Questions to Answer:
What is the prompt word?
How does the drawing relate to the word?
Is the connection between the word and the prompt literal, metaphorical, or ironic?
This skeleton drawing shows the minimum linework expected for value and detial. The examples above and below are better.
Do
Do
Use ink line and dot value techniques (hatch, cross-hatch, stipple, etc.) and solid ink areas.
Be original. Use your own ideas. Create from your imagination or use photo/live references not art references.
Think about a light source and then use a range of tones from black to white based on the light source.
Be intentional in line direction thinking about making patterns.
Do Not
Do Not
Use pencil gradation shading. (The techniques must be intaglio-print friendly.)
Use anyone else's art as your starting point (no characters, google art searches, etc.)
Rely mostly on outlines with little value technique used.
Be messy and haphazard with line placement.
Literal Vs Metaphorical Vs Ironic
Literal Vs Metaphorical Vs Ironic
"Well, aren't you a ray of sunshine!"
"Well, aren't you a ray of sunshine!"
Literal
Literal
What you draw is exactly what the word says. If the word says "tomcat" you draw a male cat.
Metaphorical
Metaphorical
What you draw has a connection to the word but it is not a literal connection. For example, her happy personality brightens your day you like a ray of sunshine.
Ironic
Ironic
What you draw contains a tone or meaning that is the opposite of the usual meaning. For example, giving a bald man the nickname Curly is ironic.
