WORKING WITH SHAPES and CREATIVITY
A shape is
said to be realistic when it is a true-to-life a copy of a real object and
figurative when It is an approximate representation of the original object. However,
abstract images are not true- to- life copies of real objects, although they
are based on certain aspects of real objects, such as shape, colour, structure
and proportion.
Activity
Look at the
three drawings of a PENCIL. One has been done in a realistic style, whereas the
one in the middle is figurative and the one in the right is abstract.
Think of
another motif of your choice and draw three pictures of it , each in a
different style.
