Choose drawings with most exciting qualities in terms of: line, marks, texture, scale, pattern and surface.
I tried to choose drawings with a variety of connotations to give myself as wide a scope as possible.
Drawing 1 – Edges and Seams (Coconut Inside)
This one was chosen for its very delicate marks, with subtle, interesting swirls that look a bit like watermarks. It also has a layered quality.
Drawing 2 – Hook and Eye
This one stood out because it was dark, suggested shininess and three dimensionality, but also, very close up the shading has a mottled texture.
Drawing 3 – Gerbera (Copper Engraving Style)
Nice bold lines to play with in this drawing, of different widths and lengths, light and dark.
Drawing 4 – Voile Grid
The repeating pattern attracted me to this; it is both careful and precise, yet varying.
Drawing 5 – Pineapple
I like the loose, scribbly style which gives an interesting texture to the body of the pineapple.
Drawing 6 – Goggles
This one had to be included, as it is one of the few drawings with arcs and curves!
