The top left image I used a couple different medias, but the think black 'paint' was helpful to give it a chunky, heavy feel.
The top right I went with a different approach and used the squiggly lines on the front of the frames to show volume.
Volume III on the bottom left seems to have all it's weight in the bottom half, and gives and airly feel.
The bottom right I used a heavier medium and then filled in shadows and detrains to add weight.
CONTOUR
The top left is the contour drawing. I just followed the deges of the form to create the outline that I saw.
The top right is a Blind Contour drawing of the same object (glasses).
The bottom two are gesture drawings. Although there is no movement to this image, I'm hoping that the gesture drawings give a slight feel of movement with this effect.
The top left is the emotion of feeling Focused. The percise lines and attention to detail gives a studious feel.
The top right is nervous. I used bolder, darker lines to show more intensity, and then the wavy nature I hope conveys an uneasy, nervous feel.
Distracted, with medium lines, and 'forgetting' some other parts of the drawing- gives the feel that something is missing...
Angry is the last one. The lines are jagged and frustrated! Some of the lines are controled while others are not.
VERBS
VERBS
The top left image is 'to skate'. The sqirly and loose lines show the sort of movement of an ice skater.
To Sleep is the top right hand side image. The lines here are white on a black background with simple form. The color and simplicity were to create the feeling of sleep.
The Bottom left verb is 'to scream'. The lines here are jagged and filled with black.
The last one is 'to study'. I hope that the lines, overlapping and yet still somewhat percise, convey the scattered yet hardworking feel of a student hard at work.
Fantastic work, Elisabeth. You were very successful portraying emotions in your glasses portraits. I could easily feel each one. "Scream" is wonderful. Right on!
