We are going to try to trace off the screen or draw objects with a pencil from the screen Why do we look at things in certain ways? How can we make objects look interesting? Can you guess the objects photographed from different angles? Divide your page into four sections. Title: Line, Shape and Form/Overlapping and Composition Now in each box you are to draw in pencil the outline only of your favourite objects. Try to draw the object four times, once in each block and try to draw a different viewpoint each time Remember to…………. keep the lines neat and clean. look carefully at the shape and form of each object. fill each box with the 4 objects and presentation is important. 4. layout and the way you overlap should be different in each block Find objects at home to use in your Michael Craig Margin Interpretation or objects on the internet to copy from Take at least 4-6 objects and try to combine them together Plan out a rough sketch first……….
