This assignment is similar to the "Line Movement"; I need to create movement and depth with shapes and/or patterns. The goals are to draw a pattern of a certain shape in different sizes to create a two-dimensional drawing that appears to be three-dimensional. If I am able to do so, then my final will be a sucess!

I came up with my first sketch by drawing circle close together, then I thought to make them different sizes to seem as if they were getting farther away. I tried, and accomplished my goals in this first sketch, but in all honesty, I disliked drawing it because it was boring to me. So, to improve, I decided to come up with a new design that I would like to draw, since art is about expressing oneself.

The second and third sketch just came out of nowhere, seriously. I kind of have a spiral idea in my head, but I didn't really want to do that because my circles would have to be almost perfect to look good. Then i just sort of drew this. I knew that to show movement and depth, the oval had to get bigger. The third sketch was when I came up with the idea, and the fourth, I improved upon it through organizing it a bit more by and drawing the shapes from a point to appear as if they were extending from that piont, farther away.

This is my successful final drawing because it protrays all the objectives needed for this assignment. When you look at it, your eyes instantly see these shapes extending close to you from a farther away point. It looks like there are shapes behind others as well, showing depth. I colored  inbetween some of the sahpes with my pencil so it wouldn't look two-dimensional and above shapes were casting a shadow onto the ones below. And the best part about these shapes, I had fun drawing them! (:

The project was to create movement on paper by using only line. The goals of this project are to have different shades and thicknesses, without creating shapes with the lines drawn. I'll succeed by drawing the lines closer together and farther away, some thin and some thick. In this way, I can create depth in my drawing. 

I came up with my first sketch by playing around with the lines; I wasn't really thinking of what to draw, I just let my imagination go. I wanted to show depth by having my lines go back into a single point, and make some large (not connected to the point) to look as if it was closer; also using shades to do so. I wanted to accomplish some great idea by without trying; but that didn't happen. I hardly met the goals of the project. I, without realizing it, created shapes. Also, I only used one thickness and one shade of lines.

I came up with my second sketch by understanding what my objectives are more fully. I saw a similar drawing in an art book, but I took it and made it my own by simplifying it. I accomplished the goals needed for the project; the lines showed depth and movement. I didn't enjoy this project that much since it didn't come fully from my own imagination. I believe this sketch was mainly just to get my creative juices flowing.

This is my third and final sketch. I enjoy simplicity, so I had the variety of line thicknesses and shades, but without so many lines drawn. To improve this sketch, I would probably need to add more lines, putting them really close together, then gradually spreading them farther apart. 

The masterpiece here, is my final result. It was based off my third sketch, but I made some changes. I had a greater variety of shades, and also added more lines. Although it is difficult to see, there are several more varieties of lines extending from the single point, making it seem like they are traveling away from the viewer. Also difficult to see, is my light shaded line that is really made up of many smaller, close together lines, making it seem far away as well. This is a successful project because the objectives clearly appear upon the paper. I drew a bold, very thick line to capture the attention, but also drew very thin lines which were even darker. Light shaded, very thin and thick lines are displayed across my design. And of course, one of the biggest reasons this drawing is so successful, is because Mr, Meserve himself approved it! :)
