Value Scale Challenge

A value scale is a small chart that shows a series of tints and shades of a single color.  In an earlier exercise, you made your own value scale.  In this project, you will use that value scale as a reference as you create an original composition.  

 


Your challenge will be to include as many value scales as you can within your drawing.  Be creative and choose a theme that interests you.  Don't simply choose something you think is "easy".  You will enjoy spending time on a drawing you like, and it will seem less tedious as you perfect your even coloring and blending of values.  

Questions to consider:
  • Did I choose something I think is interesting and fun as my theme?
  • Did I fill my entire paper?
  • Did I include a wide variety of values?
  • Did I add as many value scales as I could to my drawing?
  • Did I color smoothly and evenly?
  • Did I upload my work AND an artist's statement to my Artsonia account?  

Watch this video for examples and reminders!

Your work is due FRIDAY.
