Line Value Scale

For this assignment, we had to create a scale that went from lightest to darkest color, but instead of just shading, we had to create different patterns. I used regular pencil for this project to create line, shape, and space. I also used the principles of contrast, pattern and unity. I am proud that I created a pretty even gradient form lightest to darkest because it is definitely harder when using patterns instead of shading. I struggled a little bit with creating the patterns because I had to go back and revise a lot to make sure that each box was darker or lighter than the last. If I could go back and make this piece stronger, I would switch the second lightest box with the third lightest box because I think the second lightest is darker than the third.
