The document provides instructions for a visual arts activity and project for the week. Students are asked to do an activity drawing objects using shading techniques like stippling, hatching, and cross-hatching. They will then read about using value in shading. For their project, students will draw and shade a Maitum jar artifact, applying what they learned. They are to reflect on their experience in their visual arts journal.

Time Allotment: 20 Minutes

Remember the value scale? Let us


review the use of values in a
drawing. Apply the different values
in your drawing. Refer to the value
scale provided.

Materials:
pencil, eraser, and paper
 Instructions:
 1. Look for 3 to 4 objects inside your house.
 2. Set the objects together on a table.
 3. Draw them together, applying the stages in
 sketching to your drawing process.
 4. Once you have sketched the objects together,
 apply different values that you can see on the
 objects.
REFLECTION
Get your VISUAL ARTS JOURNAL and write
about your exercise using the following guide
questions:
1. How did the shading affect your sketch?
2. Do you apply shading to your drawings?
Why or why not?
READING: Shading Using Value
You have just rendered forms using values. Rendering in the
visual arts and technical drawing means the process of shading
and depicting the texture of an image. In this lesson, you are
going to understand and apply different values on drawings.

Shading Techniques for Drawing


Shading is a process of applying the different values identified in
the value scale on a drawing. Here are the most basic shading
applications:
 Stippling – This is the application of small dots to
build up a range of values in a drawing. The different
amounts of dots in different areas will create different
values.

 Hatching – When a group of lines are created parallel


to each oth-er. When you draw lines closer together,
you create darker values. When spaces between lines
get farther apart, you create lighter values. When
drawing rounded objects, you may curve the lines over
the form following the surface of the object. This is
called contour hatching.

 Cross-Hatching – Is achieved when hatching lines


overlap and cross each other. Every time the lines cross
in different directions, darker values are created.
Blending – This is when smooth transitions
(sometimes called gradations) of value are
produced either by changing the pressure applied
when using the pencil, or by using a blending tool.

With the use of erasers, you can remove parts of


the shading to produce lighter values. This process
is usually applied alongside the blending
technique.

Random lines – Loose applications of crossing


lines. The frequency in which the lines cross over
each other determines the value produced.
Value - The Element of Shadow
Value is one of the seven elements of art. Value deals with the lightness or
darkness of a color. Since we see objects and understand objects because of
how dark or light they are, value is incredibly important to art. (I'll remind you
that drawing, and painting is about seeing.)
Value deals directly to light. We see things because light reflects from objects
and goes into our eyes. Our mind processes the light and rationalizes what we
are seeing. Without light, we cannot see anything. In order to draw or paint in a
way that creates an illusion of what we normally see, we must fully understand
light and how it reacts on surfaces. Value is the key to the illusion of light.
If we were to take out all color, we would still see the apple and recognize it as an apple. In
other words, we are just showing the values of the apple...

If we take this one step further and isolate eight of the values, we can see where we would
need to draw or paint the values...

The whole point to value is to create the illusion of light. So value is used to basically create
the illusion of highlights and shadows. Highlights and shadows combine to create the illusion
of a light source. Remember, without light we cannot see. So technically, without a light
source, you have no illusion.
Value - Terms
Value - Element of art associated with the
darkness or lightness of a color
Light source - area in which light is
originating from
Value scale - a guide to creating a range
of value, good pieces of art have a full
range of value
Tints - light values
Shades - dark values
Highlights - areas on an object where
light is hitting
Shadows- areas on an object where light
does not hit

The Illusion of Light
 Light bouncing off objects is how we see things, and through the
available light, shade can be identified. Shading informs us how
light within a scene behaves and we can understand this through
the use of value and contrast.
 To show value and contrast in a work of art, you will need to
identify a LIGHT SOURCE. A light source is the place where the
light is coming from. Changes in value will be easier to identify
once a light source is established. When light hits the subject, it
produces a range of values.
 Values are seen on the subject based on the location and
intensity of the light source (or sources). To observe how light
behaves on a subject and its surroundings, look at an object with
just one light source on a plain surface.
 Showing the different values on the object tells the viewer where
the light source is located. These values give us an idea of how the
light affects the object, giving us information about the form of an
object and the texture of its surface.
Group of Values:
Highlight - The highlight is where the light directly hits the object. It is
represented by a very light value. Most of the time, it is white.

Mid-tone – Mid-tones are middle ranged values on the object. They are
not as intense as the highlight. These are the low light, gray, and low dark
from the value scale.

Core Shadow - The core shadow are values representing spaces that
the light could not reach. These are the dark and low dark values, and
black.

Cast Shadow - Cast shadows are dark values--created by the presence


of the object -- appearing on surrounding surfaces. Light is prevented by
the object from shining on these spaces.

Reflected Light - Reflected light are light values created beside the core
shadow on the object. These light values are from the light bouncing
from the surrounding surface and hitting the object.
How to Shade Forms
Shading defines the form of the object. When you shade circles correctly,
they become spheres. To do this, the values must transition smoothly from
dark to light or light to dark based on the light source. This also applies to
forms with curved surfaces like cones and cylinders.
Flat surfaces of forms will show little to no transition of value on each side.
Cubes can be rendered with each group of values on different sides.
Every time we shade an object, we achieve the illusion of depth and
volume. For objects with more than six flat surfaces, we can make use of
contrast and use the different values effectively to achieve the illusion of
depth and volume. You can achieve contrast when you place together two
very different values to emphasize the form. Creating tension to make
certain areas advance and other spaces recede will complete the illusion.
Artists sometimes add very dark backgrounds to create a strong contrast
with the object. You can adjust the shading of values on the object to
make it advance more. Adjustments can be done or create a full set of
values.
Contrast can also be used to make the edges that have almost the same
values (shading a little bit darker or lighter at the point where they meet) to
make surfaces of the irregular more defined.

PROJECT: Drawing and
Shading the Maitum Jar
Time Allotment: 180 minutes

For this project, we will apply sketching and


shading to draw a historical artifact: the
Maitum jar. Refer to the image provided.

Materials: pencil, Oslo paper, eraser, and


picture of the Maitum Jar

<- Reference
Instructions:
1. Sketch the shape and create the form of the Maitum Jar in the center of your paper.
2. Use contour lines to simulate the round surface quality and identify the dark and light areas.
3. Render your drawing using a pencil. Vary the pressure applied to create dark and light shades.
4. Try not to smudge the shading with your finger. Use the pencil or blending tools.
REFLECTION
Get your VISUAL ARTS JOURNAL and write
about your exercise using the following
guide questions:
1. What are difficulties, if any, did you
experience in making the shading on
drawings?
2. What did you observe about the change
or transition of values in depicting the
subject?
