HOMEWORK #3 LOCAL VALUE

Frank Vallin Art 7A

On 18 x 24 in. drawing paper using graphite pencils, make a drawing addressing Local Value. Arrange a still life of at least one dark toned object, one light and one medium. Pay close attention to the categories of light. Aside from the skilled handling of the materials, note the placement of objects and their relationship to the space. The angle of the objects as a group as well as the books individually establishes a series of triangles starting in the bottom left corner of the drawing. Furthermore, remember to consider the influence of cast shadows on your design.
