Building Form with Planes

Building Form with Planes

Below are some drawings of fruit. You are to study these and create four pages of fruit and vegetable drawings in your sketchbook. You are think of the fruit/vegetables as planar objects and build them up as planar forms as per these examples. You are to use real fruits and vegetables as models.

If necessary you are to exagerate the planes on the forms to help create a better sense of three dimensionality.

This is a cross-contour drawing and can be used as a starting point for a planar drawing


Simplifying

Below are some examples of forms simplified into blocks and cylinders. Imagining the forms as boxes can help one see planes.
