The element that I chose for our first project was line, which I incorporated in the form of gesture drawings. I also used line by drawing additional gesture lines inside the outlines of the ballerinas to further incorporate graceful motion and fluidity of body movement.
My chosen media was black and white construction paper, as well as black sharpie pen. The black paper is used as the background. I fashioned the white paper into four 4x4 squares, which I then arranged vertically and bordered with two long, narrow strips.The purpose behind this choice of material was to create a greater contrast, as well as fine, delicate pen strokes.
This subject intrigued me because I have an interest in the form and shape of the human body. I also enjoy watching people dance, such as the ballet or ice skating, because I personally find it breathtakingly beautiful.
