Lesson 2: Contour Lines, Texture and Construction
5:07 AM, Friday September 17th 2021
I think the textures exercise was biggest eye opener. It really forced me to think and look for textures. I was struggling for a while to find textures and analyse them. Haven't thought before that everything has a texture.
Another fun part was to see how few contour lines make a shape feel 3D and how you start to believe it yourself too. Slapping sausage forms on top each other was interesting and challenging. In the first sausage drawing I just added them together and then started to think how they should interact. That style worked with geometric from intersections but with organic ones I should have thought bit more how the weights distribute and how they interact with each other while drawing them.
Looking back at my arrows I really want to redo them but can't. Some of them are just confusing.
