Drawing/Illustration Performance will be satisfactory when: 1.1. Drawn dark, medium, light, and white values correspond with the subjects' values. 1.2. Measurement of drawn shapes resemble real shapes rather than presumed shapes. 1.3. Implementing the squinting technique the drawings' shapes closely model the subjects. 1.4. You avoid the use of darkened outlines in finished drawings where none existed in subject. Learning Objectives 1.a. Determine the general values of a subject and capture them in drawing. 1.b. Measure seen shapes. 1.c. Assess values in a subject implementing squinting techniques. 1.d. Examine the existence or lack of lines in subjects. 2. Sketch Gesture Drawings.

Assessment Strategies 4.1. Drawing/Illustration You will know you are successful when: 4.1. You have determined what the image area is. 4.2. Drawing's image area's height and width closely match that of the subjects. 4.3. Drawing's second largest object's height, width closely match that of the subject. 4.4. Drawing's third, fourth, and fifth largest elements closely match that of the subject. 4.5. The angle's of the drawing's five largest five shapes are within 15 degrees of those of the subject. Learning Objectives 4.a. Determine the relative dimensions of the image area. 4.b. Determine the relative size and position of the second largest element. 4.c. Determine the relative height and width of the subject's remaining elements. 4.d. Determine the angles of the elements. 5. Develop form through use of shading.
