ARRANGING FOUR BASIC FORMS

Composition Choices to Promote Depth

Consider all Viewpoints

Overlap to show distance.

Let group members if your viewpoint needs

something. Plan gaps between objects to show size.

Do NOT trade forms with other tables.

Stack to promote stability.

Don’t waste time with unstable groupings.

No No

YES

Use all the forms provided.

Cast shadows create interest in negative spaces.

Begin your line work only—shading is hard to

correct. Observe-draw-correct.

Start with shapes that overlap—it gives you a reference point.

Draw BOTH positives and negatives—both will become more accurate.

Save a picture of your still life to your phone.

For easy reassembly next class period.

For later reference to shade at home.
