For this Drawing Challenge, you will be creating your own plaster sculpture of a combination of forms, geometric or organic. Construction of these forms will consist of a mat board and wire armature taped together, then covered in plaster cheese cloth.
Once the form is constructed and dried, you will draw the form using white and toned chalk on black paper. With a single light source, from the flashlight of your phone, you will capture the lightest lights and the darkest shadows casted on and beyond the form.
You may also think about using the form itself as a drawing canvas!!!

First, sketch and plan your forms in your sketchbook:
- Pick a minimum of 3 different white forms from the class collection. Observe and draw them in proportion and value.
- Design your own versions of these 3D combined forms. Create a minimum of 3 thumbnail sketches of your ideas.
