Lesson 1-2 - inspiration

Fold your a4 paper into 4 squares. In each square sketch your name in different types of graffiti letters that you find on the internet. You will colour them in with colouring pencils or with aquarell pencils.

Please remember that we are sketching! So it doesn't have to look perfect yet! Make two per lesson

Think about:

shape of letters (make sure they look like graffiti!)
the space between your letters
where you place the letters in the square (make sure that your name fits!)
colours and mixing colours

Challenge: add an extra (personal) decoration around your name to spice it up! Make sure it fits the style!
Challenge: think about shadows and if they could improve your work?

Lesson 3

Choose your favourite 2 designs and on the back, draw these neatly and with detail.

Make sure to:

draw neatly and mix colours
take all the things from the "think about" list from last week into consideration!

Lesson 4-6

Choose your favourite to recreate on the a3 paper that will be your portfolio!

Make sure to:

place your name neatly in the middel of your page
work with care
all the elements of your work fit together (harmonious composition)
