Assignment
- Review the techniques and videos from class this week.
- On paper, create a brand new 5" by 5" drawing. Your prompt is "shadow", tell the story of a shadow. I want you to intentionally create a brand new drawing with the intent that you will be scanning it and digitally coloring it with Photoshop. The way you work will always inform how you work 😉.
- Draw your linework (a composition or parts) on paper.
- Scan your linework using the processes discussed in class. Use a camera or your iPhone if you do not have a scanner.
- Using the techniques discussed in class (or your preferred process) digitally color your shadow drawing using Photoshop.
- Upload your original scans AND your layered Photoshop source file to the Google Drive folder: svaMFAI_20191007-homework-Shadow-Scan-and-Color
