week 2 100 Line Drawings

Craft

For the 100 line assignment, I first drew out the objects on my paper using 100 lines.

The drawings took more time because I was figuring out how big and small each line should be. I also was trying to figure out how close to together the lines should be to make the shape of the object.  Drawing the object by looking at it was difficult. It took many attempts to get the portions down by using lines. Finally I realized that if  certain lines were closer together and smaller it gave the drawing the shape I were looking for.

 As you can see in the photo below the lines  at the bottom start out  large and then become small. After that, the lines get close together and gradually get bigger toward the top of the object. This process helped me show the curves and the different proportions of the object I was drawing. 

In class we transferred our drawing on paper to Illustrator. This was simpler because we were no long looking objects and trying to develop lines but we were looking at the line drawing and following each line. It can be a little hard because drawing on a computer program is not the same as paper. The steps of making the drawing on Illustrator was just following it line for line.

   

Composition 

In illustrator after transferring the drawings, there are different ways to add style. I added a Charcoal style and a water color style to give the line drawings a unique look to it.
