A shell was Clare’s object of choice to study and draw in various ways for the second project in Unit 7. She had to re-create the object a few times in various ways after drawing it normally first. To do this, she used a variety of pens to make lines of different widths and introduced colour at the end. After exploring her options, Clare was able to develop a final, hand drawn graphic solution for the shell.
.
As in assignment 1, Clare’s work was professionally presented in a black portfolio and each page clearly labelled.

Clare chose a piece called Ocean Park 2 by Christian Ward for her drawing exercise in Part 1.
.
She then went on to the graphite exercise where she was required to reproduce the drawing “Il quarto stato”, 1898, by Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo using a drid.
.
In her still life exercise, she drew a flower which she later developed for her final still life piece adding colour and enlarging it to a full size page.
.
Everything was neatly presented in a nice black portfolio and included the required analysis exercise report.

Derrick’s first task for this assignment was to visit a virtual art gallery and select an artwork to redraw on his drawing pad. Then choose another artwork and compare. This was the result, (keeping in mind that the quality of the drawings is much better in person when all the details come though!):

The next part of this assignment was the 2D to 2D Chiaro-Scuro graphic exercise which comes from a drawing called “Il Quatro Stato” by Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo given with the brief.
..
Next, Derrick was to select a small plant with many leaves, draw it first in black and white and second in colour.

Willa first has to find an organic object to use for her focus on assignment 2 of HNGD 007. She chose a shell. First, she had to draw in on an A3 sheet of paper, using a viewfinder, trying to keep the proportions and outlines as accurate as possible as well as recording tectures, light and shadows.
.
Her drawing:
.

.
After this, she had to use tracing paper and drawing pens to give graphical portrayals of the same object. Here are some of Willa’s designs:
.

.

.

.
After this, Willa was to create a final drawing of her shell, said to be the best graphic solution made with the graphical drawing media of her choice:
.

.
Next, Willa had to create a symbolic solution of this shell by identifying outlines, inner lines, patterns, shapes, positive and negative spaces, etc that would make the object recognizable. Here’s some of her development drawings:
.

.
Lastly, Willa had to produce a final drawing of one of these symbolic representations of her shell using colour.
.

Willa’s first task for HNGD 007 was to visit a virtual gallery from a given list and select an artwork to redraw. Then she had to choose another for comparison and write a statement to go along with this. Her choice was to draw Jenny Saville’s “Passage” and compare to Francis Bacon’s “The Reclining Female”. Here’s her submission for this first part of assignment 1:

In the next task, Willa was given a drawing from “Il quarto stato,” 1898 by Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo. She was to recreate this figure on a grided A3 sheet. Her drawing follows:

Willa’s third task required her to select a small plant with many leaves. Using a viewfinder, she had to draw this plant, using shading to replicate the 3D look in pencil. Her drawing follows:

.
Lastly, Willa had to develop and improve the plant from the previous exercise by adding colours. As follows:
