Drawing with Shapes and Values

Step 1: Fill in the Value Scale below with your pencil. Make sure that the first box is left white, and
the last box is completely filled in, as dark as you can get it (try pushing harder on your pencil
to make the value darker). Then, gradually fill in the boxes ranging 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, then outline each of the squares below in a
different color and number them consecutively from 1 to 7.

Step 3: Outline shapes of value in the drawing below with the marker that corresponds to the value
it represents.
