  1. OBJECTIVES Students will: • Discuss types of lines, textures, designs, and patterns along with line thickness • Discuss movement, balance, and rhythm in sculptures • Turn line designs into an original sculpture

  2. Step 1 Using your knowledge of line, you will create an interesting and complex line drawing. This drawing can simply be about line or it may have recognizable content, it is your choice. You need to focus on line variety, texture, pattern, value, composition, creativity, and craftsmanship. Your line drawing will be graded on these items so give them your attention.

  3. Let’s review these grading criteria. • LINE variety: long, short, narrow, wide, implied, curved, straight, expressive, static, parallel, etc. • TEXTURE: implied texture using line, dots, shapes, repetition • VALUE: marks closer together create darker values • PATTERN: repeating lines, shapes, values

  4. Criteria continued: • Composition: Is the design visually balanced? Does the viewer’s eye move through all areas of the drawing? Is the negative space engaged? • Creativity: Did you think beyond your first reaction to this assignment? Did you do sketches of possible solutions? • Craftsmanship: Is your work neat, clean, smudge free, damage free? Did you follow directions? Is your name on the back of your work?

  5. Examples

  6. Let’s get started! • Plan your ideas by making small pencil sketches in your red sketchbook. • You will do your final work on 12” x 18” drawing paper. • Lightly draw your composition with pencil then go over it with sharpie. Erase all pencil marks. • Give your line drawing a title. Put your name and title of the work on the back in pencil.

  7. Constructivism art refers to the optimistic, non-representational relief construction, sculpture, kinetics and painting. The artists did not believe in abstract ideas, rather they tried to link art with concrete and tangible ideas. Early modern movements around WWI were idealistic, seeking a new order in art and architecture that dealt with social and economic problems. They wanted to renew the idea that the apex of artwork does not revolve around "fine art", but rather emphasized that the most priceless artwork can often be discovered in the nuances of "practical art" and through portraying man and mechanization into one aesthetic program.

  8. HOW DO YOU START? Turn in your drawing with your name and title in pencil on the back. Also, assess your work using the rubric on the back of the assignment sheet and turn the rubric in with your work. I will make copies of your drawing. You will cut the copies of your drawing into 2” x 4” rectangles. Get a zip lock plastic bag for your rectangles and tubes and put your name on the bag with sharpie. Start rolling tubes for your sculpture. You want to plan your sculpture on paper then begin making it.

  9. GRADING COMPOSITION: viewer is drawn into the sculpture; positive and negative space is engaged by the design. DESIGN: student has effectively created a sense of movement, balance, and or rhythm using the Elements of Art and Principles of Design CREATIVITY: excellent use of the technique; student took time to develop movement in the sculpture . CRAFTSMANSHIP: sculpture is stable and well made; no glue drips, neat and clean.
