103 Shading Simple Forms

For this assignment, you will learn how to shade a sphere, a cone/ cylinder, and a cube. Additionally we will experiment with different mark-making techniques.

When you are complete, I will need you to submit your sphere, cylinder/ cone, sphere, value scale, and one experimental mark making in a form we practiced.

See my slide show for steps on shading each form!!!!!!

There are 5 main sections of shading, a highlight, middle tone, core shadow, reflected light, and a cast shadow.

Value Scale- A value scale is a map or a "key" for you to identify the varying intensity of high light and shadow on your form. It should have at least 5 sections drawn out in box format. (This is just a rough example- it aims as a key for myself)

1) High light- the lightest area overall 2) Second lightest 3) Middle tone, 4) second darkest value and 5) Shadow- darkest value overall.

Types of mark making we will focus mostly on cross hatching, stippling, and scumbling.

Mastery-

***Ask Ms. Chimenti for a piece of black paper to put in your sketchbook.

1 point- Shade any one of the forms we practiced using white colored pencil (adding the highlights instead of adding the shadows).

1 point- Create a 5 section value scale (hint, the color of the paper should be your darkest shade)
