Feet, Hands and Tonal Awareness. Week 9

Penultimate week of term and we are looking very closely at our feet! Today we went back to a basic concept of light and tone starting with a simple dark-middle-light interpretation then adding more levels of tone. We watched two videos showing techniques for creating tonal strips and cylinders to help develop our tonal awareness and skills. These can be found in our DRAWING blog. Then we looked at Euan Uglow's tonal work in still-life and figure painting.  Here is our new work using the simple tonal awareness approach.
