Year 7 Drawing
Project 1 Autumn Term 2009
Art & Design
home learning
project
Spring term project
Summer term project
In this terms project, you will
be learning about texture,
perspective, composition, and
reflection. You will also be
discovering the different types
of words and their meanings
used in the art world.
Over the course of year 7 I am
going to learn lots about basic drawing
techniques and have the chance to
develop my drawing skills. Each term I
will look at different aspects of drawing
before putting all of these skills into
pr practice in June where I am going
tto make a large final drawing Autumn term project
In this term you will be learning
about the basic drawing
techniques looking at the correct
pencils to use, tonal drawing,
shading, shape and mark making.
My project
overview:
1.
2.
3.
September to December
January to April
May to July
In this terms project, you will be
putting all of your skills learnt so
far this year together to draw
groups of objects. The final piece
of work will involve you making a
large A3 size drawing.

The bigger picture…
Hand in date:
Guidance for students:
• You should spend around 25 hours on this project over the
term which you have been given to complete this project in,
the hand in date is in December.
• Make sure you read through this booklet first before you
start!
• Try to complete one section each week – DO NOT LEAVE IT
ALL UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE!!!!
• Bring this booklet into class with you to every Art lesson,
you teacher will be checking your progress regularly over
the term.
Guidance for parents:
The idea behind this home learning project is to
encourage pupils to work at home and develop
independent learning skills outside of the classroom.
Where possible pupils should complete work by
themselves with only guidance from parents, doing the
work for them will not help to develop their skills
further. Pupils will need a basic range of pencils to
complete the tasks in this booklet. Help and equipment
are available to all pupils during the extra curricular art
clubs held each week in school.

How will my work be marked?
You will receive 2 marks for this project, the first a level indicating what standard you have
achieved and the second will be a an effort grade, A – outstanding effort, B – Excellent effort,
C – Satisfactory effort, D – Poor effort & E – Unsatisfactory effort. You will be marked on
your presentation, observational drawing skills and the evaluation. See below to find out what
you have to do to gain each of the levels!

Starter Task: Look at your hand for 10 seconds, then place
your pen on the starting point,
close your eyes and try to draw
your hand with out looking. Do not
take your pencil off the page until
you have finished!

Task 1. Using the right pencil.
1a. Ever wondered what the numbers mean on pencils? Graphite pencils come in different
grades of softness and hardness, the numbers show how hard or soft the graphite is. HB is
a standard writing pencil, 2B is a good all-rounder drawing pencil, but there are lots of
different grades
Each of the squares below is labelled with a different grade of pencil. Shade in each box
with its grade of pencil.
1b. Fill in the diagram using the pencil grade labelled in each section.
Page 5
1c Tone. In the box first set of boxes, add shade or tone from light to dark, starting with lightest on the left to darkest on the right. You can choose which grade of pencil to use.
Which grade of pencil did you use? ………….
To do well… make each square just a little bit darker so there is not a big jump from one to the next.
1d. In this set of boxes add shade or tone from dark to light to dark again. Make sure the change
from light to dark is even. You can choose which grade of pencil to use.
Which grade of pencil did you use? ………….
To do well… Make sure there is no big jump in tone and try and get each square even not
scribbley.

1e. In the box below draw a round piece of fruit. Use what you have learned about grades of shading to make the fruit look 3D or life like.
To help an object look real or 3D you need to give it a shadow. If you don’t, your object will look like its
floating about. Think about where the light source is coming from in your drawing, then add some
shading on the ground where the object would cast its shadow. The shadow will be darkest closer to the
object and lighter the longer the shadow is. The lightest part of your fruit will be the part closest to
the light source.
To do well… Fill the square with your drawing and get your shading smooth not scribbley

1f. Draw a basic shape of a mug. Use a plain mug, not one with lots of pattern on it. Put it
in a place where you have the light coming from the left hand side.
Start with a centre line, draw a cylinder with the sides parallel to the centre line then
draw in the top and bottom using ovals and then draw in the handle. You now have a
‘skeleton’ shape that you can add shading or tone too to make it look 3D.
Now rub out the centre line, and the part of the bottom circle you can’t see when you look at
the real mug.
Use a 2B pencil to add tone or shading to the mug. Look carefully at your mug to get all the
shadows, reflections and highlights accurate. For the lightest sections you could leave the
paper white.
To do well… Make sure you have a range of tone, from very dark to very light.

1g. Mark making - Make a 'library of marks,' in the boxes below. Fill each box. Do
this by using a pencil (you can use different grades, but make a note of which ones you use) to create as many different marks as possible.
It can be difficult at first but just experiment with using the pencil. You can smudge mark with your fingers if you like to create new and interesting effects. If you're stuck for ideas, wander around with your book looking for interesting surfaces (not shapes and
forms) to try and re-create just using a pencil.
Here are some examples:

1h. Just for fun! Draw a dog using your thumb.
To do well… try lots of different marks, hold your pencil differently to usual, use your left hand be experimental!
Draw
your
dog

1i. Line – in the box below, draw a fork and two spoons in line only. This is a drawing without shading. Arrange them in whatever composition you like.
To do well… only use line, no tone. To make your objects look more real, vary the thickness
and darkness of your pencil lines; darker and thicker for dark areas, lighter and thinner for
lighter areas.
1j. Now draw the same fork and two spoons using line but do not take your pencil off the paper.
This is called continuous line drawing.
Page 11
1k. In the box below draw a picture of an object or collection of objects from in front of you that shows lots of lines. For example you could place a bunch of dry spaghetti in front of you or make a
drawing from twigs and branches taken from a tree. Can you think of your own object rather than
using one of our examples? Add tonal shading to your drawing to complete it!

1l. just for fun, draw the beetle in the box below

1m. End of term challenge!!!
Use the box below to make a drawing
of a group of an opened sweet or
chocolate bar. Remember to use all of
the skills you have learnt so far in this
project looking at tone, line, shape and
mark making. There are two examples
on the right to give you an idea of
what to do, don’t copy these, we want
to see a different drawing below!

I am marking my self on:
Is it a strength (S) or a
weakness (W) of mine? Using the correct pencil: How well have
I understood what effects the different
shades of pencils can give? How well
have I used this in my drawings?
Tonal drawing: Do I understand what tonal drawing is? How well have I
used tone in my drawings?
Shading: Do I understand what shading is? How well have I used shading
in my drawings?
Shape: Do I understand what shape is? How well have I used shape in my
mug / end of term drawings?
Mark making: Do I understand what mark making is? How well have I
used marks in my drawings?
Line: Do I understand what line is? How well have I used line in my
drawings?
End of term drawing
challenge: Did I do well in this drawing? Did I use all of the new skills
learnt in this project?
Time keeping: Have I completed
and handed my project in on time?
My Mark Page
My SMART Target is: _______________________________
Use this page to mark your own work. If you think that you have been successful in one
of the areas listed below then write a ‘S’’ next to it. If you think that it is a weakness of
yours then write a ‘W’ next to it, this is called assessment for learning.
Finally, set your self a SMART target to improve one of you weak areas!
SMART = Specific. Measurable. Achievable. Realistic. Timed.
