Observational Drawing And Mark-Making Project 1 Evaluation - 28/11/14


I have learnt a variety of drawing and mark-making techniques in this project; which include: colour pencil on black paper, brusho ink & bleach, colour pencil on textured white acrylic background, colour pencil on newsprint and card etc., Sgraffito, line drawing, drawing with: paint, pencils, biro, pastel. Drawing different angles & close-ups of object in different media. Some of these techniques are new to me, such as Sgraffito & Line drawing.

I used pencil for the object in 3 types of mark-making and for most other drawings I used colour pencil.

I think the 4 studies on different backgrounds were effective. The colour pencil stood out well on the black paper and newsprint. However, it was hardtop draw onto the white emulsion.

The Sgraffito drawing was effective because the colours really stood out where the paint was scratched off and even if mistakes were made on the piece it still would look attractive and mistakes may not be noticed.

I think my homework studies were very successfully. I spent enough time on all of them and took my time with them to get them as detailed as possible and as best as I could get them; the same with all my work.

I think I may have improved my observational drawing skills because the course has been practise for me and I have learned to draw quicker and still with a good result. I think I managed my time well as I have completed all my work in time and have not rushed and I still had time to improve things after, that may not be completed entirely.

I have produced the best outcomes possible by managing my time and working hard with each drawing to make them as detailed as possible and use a lot of different techniques and media.

Other techniques I would like to try might be pointillism or drawing abstract art.

Overall I enjoyed this project and I think it went really well and I did my best on each drawing and was happy with them all and managed my time the best that I could.
