Week 11 Contrast Blog Exercise





                                                                                                                       productdesignforums.comThe artist tries to imply depth in the drawing by using tones of gray from lightest to darkest. Things are also darkest closer and kinda fade into lightest as the lines draw the eye back. With the back ground being pure white it is in high contrast because of the dark lines and shadows come out from the image. Sense the lines are not strait on the care and kinda form a curved image of a car almost as if it could jump off the page.

The tonal scales are still in place with this drawing too. You can see that this drawing is even more dramatic in Contrast because of the angle of the lines almost give the impression that the car could drive right of the page. The tones of gray are pretty drastic with the glass being clear in real life and here it is black so that the eye is told that the image is seperate from the background which in this case is white. The car is not pointed towards you because that would be a boring composition and would lack the visual stimulation and contrast. Also the front of the car is brighter then the back of the car giving the illusion of depth and that helps the image jump of the page better.
