48. DRAWING WITH SHAPES AND VALUES
step 1 Fill in the VALUE SCALE below using a pencil. Leave the FIRST box blank, then fill in the LAST box
completely, making it as dark as you can. (Try pushing down harder on your pencil to get darker
values). Then, gradually fill in the boxes to make a smooth scale, from very light, to very dark, so there
is a gradation from the first white box to the last very dark box.
step 2 Choose seven different colored markers (or colored pencils), then outline each of your squares above
in a different color.
step 3 Identify areas in the drawing below which match the value of the darkest box in your value scale, then
outline those areas with the corresponding marker color. Once you have identified all the areas with
that value, repeat the process for each value in your value scale!

85. step two:
• drawing a “value map” of a white object:
• use your worksheet to number your values
• create a “value by number” drawing of your white
object (can be small - use the paper on which you
took notes yesterday!)
• when you’re done - shade in your values in! (use
your scale on your worksheet to help you)

for this unit

100. our final projectfor this unit
• use 1-3 objects
• can share a set-up
with others
• decide on a
composition (can use
viewfinder) that
balances positive &
negative space
• use a full range of
values - avoid outlines!
• divide paper to affect
your composition-
include value scale and
3 thumbnail sketches
18” x 24” paper
(can be black OR white)
