Contouring & Hatching Techniques

From the image above, you can see that this is my result of a variation of contour and hatching techniques. The purpose by which is to expose us to the different styles available as well as the 'feel' it projects. I am familiar with two styles; of which are hatching and cross-hatching as mastering the basics seems to be the priority. Although that may be true, I learnt two new techniques that I have come to appreciate. Number 1 being its complexity in its form yet being so simplistic in the way it is performed. 

Stippling is the definition of precision and patience accompanied with all these attributes as a lot comes into consideration when doing it. When people look at art pieces as such, they are amazed at the effort it took to produce such results; it matches the work input too. Everything comes into play when stippling; the line weight and thickness. the spacing between each dot as well as the pressure applied. It all adds up to macro image.

The next one I found it enjoyable. It evoked all feelings of simplicity as it is as simple as what it says. Scribble!

We were required to apply what we have learned from the lecture on Anthropometry which is basically the study of the physical properties of the human body; dimension of body size and shape. Here is the first 12 daily activity. From the poses, you can see that I have chosen simple actions that we can all relate to. Such as texting, eating, excreting, etc. I tried as much to mimic the pose in its essence as I converted the image to a sketch. Most of which I personally tried on. The hassle that I faced was getting the measurements as accurate as it can be. On this image, I tested different poses that I thought would be extreme. The suggestion to change the item from a normal pants ...

Round 2! Group assignment ended, another one begins. Upon completing the first, we were asked to chose a particular insect, and of the 6 choices we chose what seemed most appropriate. Yet the journey through this process was an utmost disgust. You'll understand in a moment. One word says it all. Worms. All things long and squirmy, we had to research that. Worms,Centipedes and Millipedes was the given topic and in 3 days we presented our findings. The process in presenting our visual board. The reason to why I called it a visual board is because we were meant to visualize aspects of our insect while each of the components and facts remain intact with the rest of the information gathered. For the reason that it would be too much or hectic to look for attributes with the possibility of having overlapping information, we divided the load and my findings were its behaviour.
