Get out your abstract sculpture sketches from last class.
- why did you select these images?
- how has the artist used interesting contours?
- how has the artist implemented interesting negative space?
Task#1: Thumbnail sketches (3 on on page)
Sketch 3 different ideas for your abstract sculpture. Think about the form (contour) and negative spaces. Remember the final sculpture will start from a shape that is just a little longer than a square, so don't make your design too tall.
Use template to keep size in proportion.
Task#2: Final Design (new sketchbook page)
Pick the thumbnail sketch you feel is the strongest and will make the best final sculpture when implemented. First create the cube-rectangular prism shape on my paper (work large/fill whole sketchbook page). You will draw the sculpture from one angle, showing two sides. You will need to add value to show form and negative space.
