Cam's Independent Drawing Project Assignment

 
Independent Drawing Project


Project Description:
Create a drawing utilizing light to create movement, space, or suggest time.

Goals:
To understand how to manipulate light or light sources in order to enhance a drawing.

Materials:
Any

Requirements:
Light must be used in a fairly non-traditional way. Try not to simply make a drawing with one dramatic light source. Think about how your drawing and light could interact directly.

Methods:
Anything is fair game (some examples:)
Use overlapping colored lights on subject when drawing
Make a drawing almost completely “absent” of light
Display a drawing in almost total darkness or under an overpowering light source.

Tips:
Try to use light in a non traditional way:
This could be having multiple dramatic light sources
Including actual light as part of the drawing.
Etc.
Think about our perception of light and how we traditionally project that onto a drawing.
