ART 220 10: Starting the Drawing
Thursday, September 24
Thumbnails on the wall first: everyone's refined sheet pinned up, one question each, what is it for and the one thing to fix, then a word about the work between now and the critique. Then the drawing starts, from the chosen thumbnail onto the full sheet, 9 by 12 or bigger, and that is most of the day. While you draw: Tomer Hanuka, the artist of the day, who draws and inks by hand and colors on the computer, and then the basics of shadow and texture in Illustrator and in Photoshop, so you know where the drawing goes after it is scanned. Tuesday is scanning and importing. The drawing is due finished Thursday, October 1, scanned and turned in that day.

Artist of the day
Tomer Hanuka
b. 1974
Drawn and inked by hand, colored on the computer. Every shadow is a shape and every texture stays inside one: the path this project takes after the scan.
Israeli illustrator, based in New York. Film posters for Mondo and covers for The New Yorker: full scenes, many things in the frame, held together by one color plan and one idea. Studied in ART 220 for the scene page.
