Chapter 3

For chapter 3 we were required to do exercises 3.1-3.6 and choose our 6 best images... So here goes:

Exercise 3.1: In the image above we were asked to draw cubes and here are a few of my examples. I did not use a ruler to draw them but the bottom image labeled 1. I believe is the best one so far. It is drawn while using a horizon line instead of complete free hand and feels confident.

Exercise 3.2: The images above are just a few that I attempted to draw of stacked cardboard boxes. The 1st image shows that I didn't quite understand the concept and as I continued to draw it slowly became easier as you can see in the 2nd and 3rd pictures.

Exercise 3.3: This example required us to draw two cylindrical bottles with one standing and one laying on its side. The image labeled 3. is my favorite one by far. My lines are even and compared to the other images the bottle looks symmetrical.

Exercise 3.4: Asked us to take our cubes and transform them into other prismatic forms and I decided to create a pyramid. #2 is more of a cube shape which makes the pyramid more symmetrical and precise.

Exercise 3.5: This exercise required us to take each cube and transform them into a cone or cylinder. Since I had previously done a pyramid I decided to continue an do a cone shape. #3 is bold and more symmetrical and looks well thought out.

Exercise 3.6: This exercise asked us too now include a shape of any kind in the cube. The one thing that was on my mind at this point was a set of drums and as I continued drawing a set of drums that my dance teachers husband would play stuck in my mind. So I ended up with one that resembled those used for West African dances.
