UCO Design Foundations - Values in Value

Project 1 - Values in Value

Learning Objectives

Observe and recreate values and shapes to establish forms, textures and patterns. Visualy describe an object from multiple points of view. Create interesting movement within the images and the layout by using the principles of design.

Assignment

Choose a metallic object (example: safety pin, paperclip, scissors…) Draw a series of observational studies of the metallic object in various sizes and orientations. Create a dynamic but unified layout with multiple images from various points of view. Accurately describe the form and texture of your object by rendering shapes of lights, darks and edges within the object. Create visual interest by showing fine details of your object at various scales.

Craft
