Imaginary Environment

Using two facing pages in your sketchbook, draw your sculpture as it would appear in an imaginary environment.
Your environment could be realistic or made up. Be sure to include detailed surroundings. Closely observe your
sculpture and draw it using a minimum of five values (a white, a dark, and some middle grays) or as realistic as
possible with color.
Consider WHERE your sculpture would be best located…(it can be anywhere!) Also consider the ENTIRE
COMPOSITION and how the two pages in your sketchbook will work together as one uniform, interesting image.
In order to determine the most accurate angles of your sculpture, use SIGHTING (holding out your pencil to
compare the angle of the pencil to the angles on your sculpture).
