Topic: DRAWING AND PAINTING OF LANDSCAPE
PAINTING: Is the art and technique of applying paint or colour on a drawing with the aid of a brush. It is also the art of creating pictorial scene on a flat surface.
DRAWING LANDSCAPE: The two distinct features in a typical landscape drawing or painting are linear and spot features. Distinguishing between the two is important in landscape works. Rightful placement of these features gives a typical landscape its depth and distance.
Linear feature are roads, tracks, fences, creeks, rivers, group of buildings, trees, bushes, animals, rocks, etc. These are like individual spots and marks.
SKETCHES IN LANDSCAPE DRAWING.
The linear features when sketched would give necessary spread and coverage of the picture plane . The sketched-in linear feature would be like a map when it comes to detailing. To detail, just locate where a spot feature fits in on the sketched surface and detail it in. Drawing in charcoal, pencils and pastel need to be fixed to avoid smudging.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF PAINTING
(Poster and water colour)
- Hold the brush near the end of the handle so as to allow a full arm movement.
- Always work from light to dark.
- Remember to clean your brush every time you change colour.
- Use the three tones: light, medium and dark. Try and blend properly.
- Always paint a large area first with large brush and finish with small brush.
- Learn to mix your colour properly as to obtain light and tones needed for painting.
IMAGINATIVE COMPOSITION
This is a composition mainly from memory and it is not copied, at least not as it is composed. One can be in a place then use images of objects there to imaginatively compose another setting. Examples are: Market scene, Local festival, school, carpenters work shop, grazing cattle and their herdsmen, a town crier etc.
Imaginative composition in creative art refers to the ability to create original and innovative artwork. This might involve coming up with new ideas or concepts, or re-imagining existing ones in new and interesting ways. It could also involve using unconventional methods or materials to create something unique. Ultimately, it is about using your imagination to create something that has never been seen before.
EVALUATION.
- What is painting?.
- Briefly explain the meaning of imaginative composition and mention four suitable environments for the exercise.
WEEKEND ASSIGNMENT
Draw and paint the landscape of your hostel.
LESSON TWO:
PRACTICAL: Draw and paint a market scene with suitable colours.
Draw and paint a market scene with suitable colours.
To draw and paint a market scene, you will need:
– A4 size paper
– pencil
– eraser
– black pen
– coloured pencils or crayons
1. Begin by sketching out the basic shape of the market scene on your A4 paper. Include the stalls, customers, and any other features you want to include.
2. Once you are happy with the basic sketch, begin to fill in the details with your pencil. Add any shading or other effects that you feel will make the scene more realistic.
3. Once you are satisfied with the pencil drawing, go over it with a black pen to further define the shapes and outlines.
4. Finally, add some colour to your market scene with coloured pencils or crayons. Use light colours for the sky and background, and brighter colours for the stalls and people. Be creative and have fun!
