Basic Drawing Tonal Values
Basic Drawing Tonal Values
For this class we are dealing only with gray because we are using a pencil. That means that you've already been working with total values with out knowing anything about them Somehow you are able to translate the color that you see into black-and-white simply
by comparing the darkness of one object to another. Now that we understand what tonal values are by definition, we become more aware of what they are through practice. This is the first part of understanding. The Second part of understanding total values is how we can use them creatively in our drawing and how we use them to stay out of trouble.
The first thing we will do is create a value scale. A value scale is a greyscale of 10 iterations from white to black. We make 10 squares on our paper and leave the first square untouched. This represents white. We then shade the next nine squares and try to obtain a gradual scale of progressively greyed squares until we reach the last square which will be black. This is a typical value scale and I'm going to ask you to make your own total value scale. The point of this exercise is to reinforce distinctions in tonal values it may be needless to say but we create a darker value by pressing harder on the pencil or using a softer pencil to make the area darker.
