PRINT SKETCH CRITIQUE

 

 

 

Print Sketch Critique

1. Why is texture so important to have in your sketches?

Texture is crucial in sketches.  With the sketch having no color you have to show the value of what you are representing.  You do this by shading and texture.  It makes the drawing very detailed and more realistic.

2. Why is it necessary for you to have several references of each animal and each background? Explain.

This is important (to have several references) because if you just draw from one perspective then you don't get all the details you could get from other sources.  It makes the sketch more realistic.

3. When you look at your sketches are you able to see which sketch is the strongest and will make the best print? How do you know this? 

I can tell by looking at my sketches which one is the strongest by how detailed it is and if it looks real.  The best print will be discovered when I start trying out compositions and that will be found when I see which animal looks the best with the surroundings.
