modeling the figure
TRANSCRIPT
MODELING:
building up of forms by shading;
rendering the illusion of volume on a two-dimensional surface
Build from the INSIDE OUT
Line can be added AFTER the figure is modeled, if you like
Remember to use all “lessons” from previous weeks as well: stick figure structure, scribbling to create mass, ovals, angles.
You should have a sense of SCULPTING the figure with the
side of your charcoal

Notice how the darkest areasrepresent parts of the form that RECEDE

The background is part of the figure – a “miasma” in which the figure resides
