Scale Drawings 20th Sept

Day starts at welington terris at 9am. what we needed to bring to it was 2X A1, ruler, view finder, rubber! 

we did, 4X scale drawing ( which is one of my weak points) 

'Scale drawing is the devil' i find that theses are extremly hard but one if not the essental of art and something i need to perfect over time but i can still hate doing them, which gives me more reason to do them everyday untill i love them! Its just hours of soft lines with little extression which is not my enjoyment of art but i know its something i need to be able to do. 

The first 3 images we did was set up for us and i stupidly decided to choose the hardest objects... which was possible the most complex objects in the room. i had a toilot shaped object which was very dificult to draw becuase its so round theres no hardlines meaning it have infinity lines so its hard to make it look round with out using any shading. and if i move the slightest it means that the whole object moves meaning that i have completly have to start to prevent this i marked where my esile was with masking tape and where my feet where wiith masking tape.  the first image was just a basic scale drawing then the second drawing was half scale then the 3rd drawing was double scale or even smaller. then after this we could choose what objects and what compostion we could do which i found quite fun and satisfiing exept for the fact that i went off and did a very wild free expressive drawing which after 40minutes i relixed that i really should start again and do a small soft tight drawing.. the image did not come out as bad as i thought.
