Unusual Texture Fruits & Vegetables

 Texture is the way an object feels or looks like it would feel if you could touch it.


Every object has a texture! See if you can spot an object near you and describe its texture. For example, my water bottle is smooth but the cap is bumpy.

Some artists use UNUSUAL textures in their art to create something new and original.


For your assignment, you'll be adding unusual textures to fruits and vegetables.

You can pick three different fruits/veggies (for example, a carrot and a blueberry and a strawberry) or you can do three of the same (for example, three bell peppers).

For each fruit/veggie, add an unusual texture to it. You might draw a spiky orange, or a furry tomato. Don't forget to color your drawings!


Success Criteria:

  • Three fruits or vegetables, drawn with three different unusual textures
  • Label the textures
  • Color or shade the fruits/veggies





Review Book Success Criteria:
  • Draw one object of your choice
  • Give it an unusual texture (for example, a furry basketball)
  • Color and/or shade the object

Variety Drawing

Image
 Variety is a Principle of Design. Variety means using multiple Elements within the same drawing - multiple colors, multiple textures, multiple types of lines, etc. Start off by completing the practice worksheet to explore a variety of ways to draw a single object. Choose something simple you can draw many times, like an apple or a basketball. Next, start on your main drawing. This will only have 12 boxes, so that means you can leave out 3 techniques from the practice worksheet that you didn't like as much. Step 1: Divide your paper into 12 boxes using a ruler. If you are using 9” x 12” paper, that would be a line every 3 inches. Step 2: In pencil, sketch out an object of your choice and a background that goes all the way to the edge of your paper on all four sides, like this: Step 3: Add variety! Color/shade in each box with a different technique from the practice worksheet. Your final artwork should have all 12 sections filled in INCLUDING the background. Your backgroun...

Color Schemes

A color scheme is the combination of colors used within a single artwork. Learning specific color schemes helps you decide what color combination will work best for your artwork. Color schemes are based on where the colors are located on the color wheel. For example, a complementary color scheme is a color scheme that uses any two opposite colors - like red and green. You can use the color wheel to find other opposite pairs! Can you find a couple more complementary color pairs? There are a lot of different color schemes, but we'll look at six of them: MONOCHROMATIC "mono" = one, "chroma" = color, so "monochrome" = one color A monochrome picture uses different values  of one single color. Example: light blue, medium blue, and dark blue. ANALOGOUS Similar or "neighbor" colors Example: red, red-orange, and orange COMPLEMENTARY Complementary = opposites A complementary color scheme uses two colors that are opposites on the color wheel. Example: ...
