Yet MORE from Williams

These first 3 charcoal drawings are studies of chairs from the art classroom at Williams. The exercise was a way of looking at the negative and positive spaces created by the unique shapes of the chairs. The shading of the black charcoal took many many many hours!! But the results were very cool. The last drawing in this bunch is a collection of 6 negative/positive space views of the same chair, all pieced together to make an interesting design.

The following charcoal drawing is a still-life of random objects from my dorm room and the studio art closet. Click the picture to enlarge it for a more detailed look!

The final project for Drawing 101 was to create two charcoal drawings from photographs from a magazine or newspaper that had been cut and rearranged. The first is a composite of two photographs of visitors to the Vietname Veterans' Memorial and the second is a composite of a picture of the Memorial and a snapshot of soldiers and civilians.
