Art - Exploring Line - 3rd nine weeks project 
Students were asked to draw a self portrait, using straight lines only to create the shape and form. The straight lines will challenge the student to create the illusion of 3D, The success of the drawing hinges on careful use of overlapping line or creating shapes from straight lines. Students are to draw the shoulders to keep the head from floating. Students may use some colored pencil within the drawing to create an interesting portrait. The time allowed for this project is a week.

Line Quality
20 pts

Shows good use of contour line to create the sense of volume and depth of the face and features.

LEVEL 1

No care or very little care was given to application of line
Line was sloppy or quickly sketched in.
LEVEL 2

Line was sometimes drawn with sensitivity and variation but was not consistently interesting or was impatiently applied in some areas. There was no use of the details in the gourds and corn to create a sense of dimension. Interior lines did not follow exterior lines to create roundness.
LEVEL 3

Student use of the straight lines helped further the effect of the 3-D of the objects. The use of overlapping or shape placement also helped.
LEVEL 4

The student used many aspects of detail of the objects that created a much heightened sense of realism. Many details add to the richness and interesting effect, including details from the mats the objects were placed on, shadows, textures, etc.

Skillful use of pencil line further enchances the sense of 3D. Color, and texture are varied and interesting, and the drawing is highly crafted and polished looking.
