Line Into Form

In the PCA: Introduction to Visual Art course, non art-majors from a variety of disciplines used traditional and nonconventional drawing methods to make a 2-Dimensional work that they then transformed into 3-Dimentional art. Utilizing fumage (drawing using smoke), stencils, and contour drawing, students first created a representational image of a shoe. These drawings were successful through the use of implied textures made from fumage and a sense of space and weight created by the varying line quality. Students then used their drawing as source material as they sculpted their shoe out of wire. Twisting the wire with a drill and by hand, students were able to achieve a variety of line qualities, real textures, weight, and form.
