Week 5: Mark Making

Here are the drawings I did for this week. I collected random objects (yes including a granola bar) and tested them out. Here are the tools.

This first drawing was done with a folding piece of paper.

The second drawing was done with a stick I found in my backyard. I spilled ink on my carpet doing this one 🙁

This drawing was done with a granola bar 🙂

This drawing was done with a leaf. It’s my favorite one.

This drawing was done with a cue tip.

  1. Great tests Ethan! I love the granola bar choice. Did you do the tests with only the wrapper on? I wonder if you used the actual granola bar (unwrapped andcut ino pieces) as a stamp and what texture that would create? Similarly, the leaf could also be used as a stamp. We can think of these tools being used in multiple ways! There is never a correct answer and it makes us also think about the diverse possibilities of using a traditional tool such as a pencil too. I hope you had fun with this and I am looking forward to seeing your big drawing. Feel free to make more tools when you get to that step!
