Study Notes

CPAR Additional Notes

Focus on emotive dark tones and expressive lines, conveying sadness
Include vanishing point for depth
Realistic three-dimensional quality achieved through hatching (parallel lines same direction), cross-hatching (parallel lines opposite direction), blending (using torchons in charcoal), and stippling (dot patterns)
Pencil line and tone quality depends on sharpness of point, holding angle, and pressure
Charcoal is held between thumb and first three fingers
Smooth lines - pen, graphite
Rough lines - crayons, chalk
Dry media - pencils, pastels
Wet media - water color
Improve life drawing skills by regularly drawing live models
Masterpieces created using dry or wet media
Two-dimensional drawings have length and breadth, while three-dimensional drawings have length, breadth, and height.
Strategy for enhancing insight stage: formulate unpredictable works, focus on preparatory stage

Creative Thinking Stages

Preparation
Incubation (period of germination, subconscious idea formation)
Illumination (aha moment)
Verification (expansions and development to a masterpiece)
