EYE LEVEL AND BASELINES

Julianne

Today the class began work on the Eye Level and Baselines series. First, the class made small sculptures from clay. Next, they made a number of studies illustrating the sculptures from various points of view (I.E. above, below, front, back, etc). After completing the studies, students made thumbnails of the sculptures within three different spaces. One exhibiting a high horizon line, looking down on the objects. One with a low horizon line, looking up at the objects. And one standard position near the middle of the page.
For the next two class sessions, we will work on creating a series of at least three drawings illustrating the three locations of horizon line (aka. eye level).
